A plugin to kick or change the names that have `

[TigerMan4]

Okay.

I know Valve was suposed to have fixed that glitch with the ` in peoples names , but I would like to have a plugin that will remove it or remove the person completely who has it.

If this were to be added to D.O.s block explpoits or a stand alone , it would be great.

why:

well , the people who have the ` in their name , do it for 1 main reason.
they think they cant be kicked if they have it in there.
the thinking being ,that if you type their name in to amx_kick <`> and you hit the ` it returns you to your consol and you cant kick them.

I have also found that the bulk ( not all ) but the bulk of the ` people are total jerks or cheaters , and thats why they "need" the ` in their name.

thanks in advance.

ive had some ppl use that before as their name.. tho i never had any trouble getting rid of them...

you can just use the amxx menu
or kick them by userid

oh I know how to get rid of them without any problems.

but its the point behind it that i would like to stop.

its the , why take a chance on them being one of the good guys vs. waiting for them to be a jacka$$ etc.

Pretty simple to write a plugin for this.


public client_connect( id ) {
new name[32];
get_user_username( id, name, 31 );

if( contain( name, "`" ) > -1 ) // -1 means not found. anything above is found.
{
// Have your way with him here (ie. kick or change name)
// Change name would be
replace( name, "`", "" );
}
}

lol tiger no disrespect but u got the weirdest and most strict rules on ur server

[TigerMan4]

then you havnt been on some of the other servers..

I like LODs rule about the sewers on Kalt , and they ban you if you use the sewers with less than 12 people on the server , or they ban you if you go prone in the sewers.

the thing with the " ` " is a matter of personal dislike for the people who have abused the " ` " glitch over the years to act like total jackasses while in your or my server.

well i mean i came to this conclusion about 6 months go.

DOD is DYING. A lot have gone over to TF2, SOURCE GAMES, LIFE lol , etc
So making a server with a bunch of rules will only lose players for NO REASON. Cuz the game is ment to be fun and not strict in MY OPINON (not anyone elses)

so i got 3 simple rules:

no bazooka/nade glitching
no hax
no mic spam of stupid shit noone likes


that is all. maybe im wrong on how i feel the game should be ran since its dying out slowly and i'd love to hear anyone elses opinions about this issue

If u have clan tag protection u can just make "´" a protected name to your own steamid ie. I did that to the name "player"...

[TigerMan4]

hahaha....I change players names all the time....if they come in as player.

I change it to somthing crazy , and usually they fix it.

we dont have that many rules.

no racial slurs
no hacking
no pistol rolling / quick switching to avoid the reload (aka the reload glitch)
no prone mgs on color maps ( red blue etc )
no arguing with admins
no spawn camping or nades in spawn

the no spawn camping is the most inportant one , since , its NO fun at all , to get MGd in the spawn after waiting 18 seconds for a respawn.

Please try to stay on topic. This is not an area to discuss server ethics. Clearly you two have differing views and I my own. Please discuss the plugin request at hand.

Thanks Wilson...thread Hijacked by onehitwonder.

and thanks for the code.

so all I have to do is , compile what you wrote down ? and I can fix the " ` " thing ?
