Nominating the same fun/adventure type maps all morning, killing the server and then not even playing those maps.

EDIT:
Seems like it could be the same person controlling 3 accounts to just spam RTV and nominate server killing maps. Very lonely individual out to cause evil trouble. Talking about the server having the lowest traffic all month and possibly ddos. This went on all morning and no admins available and I forget how to do ingame reports, if that is even a thing.

EDIT: Just saw all three were on server again, two were playing, third was spectating. So I guess there are at least two real players sharing a connection.

Im positive its one guy or atleast was that day. They would sometimes be in the game on a team but never more than one actually playing. It was extremely obvious.

SpamDaddy!

nebit also witnessed the same behavior.

Watched the HLTV demos of the map (recording started two times). Unfortunately they're incomplete, the first half or so is missing. During the whole recording only one of the above mentioned players was playing, the 2nd guy standing still in spawn, the 3rd one had already left. So from direct observation (as the first half of the map is missing from the HLTV) for a brief moment (when I had just joined) there were two active players, but for the rest of the map it was as everyone else described.

No need to watch these, just for reference:

this happens on other servers. You should not be able to nominate more than 1 map either. You will get a guy that nominates 3-4 maps he likes so he can get the one he wants. Kinda like stacking the vote.

You can nominate only 2, after that any more will just remove the first one you nominated and so on down the line. What he was doing was voting for 2 on 3 accounts and then making sure that all 3 accounts voted for the same map.

Some options:
- Restrict number of people who can vote to one player per IP.
- Block abusers from voting.
- Ban abusers.

In Egg's case blocking or banning may be difficult, since he has a lot of spare Steam IDs and may switch to a mobile connection to circumvent a ban. The problem with mobile connections: IPs are from a shared pool which other TFC players use as well.

I wonder if that is the real sirfrags or someone just used the name on coincidence

the sirfrags i have added hasn't been active on that steam account in well over a year, also if my memory recalls right he was  a mod or owner at a dustbowl server, doesn't sound like behavior he would do

Guts

That's why I linked the steam ID's. Pretty easy to cross reference that.

You don't need to sign in, that's just for the mentioned extra features.

Guy changed multiple accounts tonite to show as "pizzahut"...  Keeps rtv for skeeball map.  he was using 3 or 4 accounts on tonite and not playing with any.  i had to play against like 4 guys earlier (sigh)....

Blood profile name changed to Speeder.
Speeder profile name changed to Pizzahut
Now there sa new steam profile for an additional Pizzahut
The "Player" profile is still just Player.
