As a little step maybe that kickvotes run til the time ends and not pass when 50% f3 or f4, not being able to vote in running kickvotes when joining or a delay anyways of being part in votes after joining. That doesnt fix the problem but gives more time to react. Maybe there is also a way to automatically detect that a vote passed by votebot and the server turns off kickvotes automatically then?

that only helps if a mod is on, doesn't it?

Doesn't it help if you can't vote the first 5 min after joining a map?

If someone sees a lot of tees joining and they wait 5 min, they can call a mod in the meantime. (edited)

All we need is time

b224a4d Improve sv_join_vote_delay against vote bots - def-

There's now a 5 minute delay for anyone to start or participate in a vote

11:40

Let's hope that's enough

Only for vote kicks or also mapvotes?

map votes have some special rule that allows you to vote if the server was empty before

you can try it out and report back if it doesn't work as expected

@deen for mapvotes its not needed because of veto, the vote botter tried to change The map but wasnt possible. I hope you also made the server know that he dont have to "wait" for the new joined players to vote xD

13:48

but i think u did

I personally would do some nooby hacky fix that detects fishy behavious like a bunch of numbernames joing at the same time and blocking them from voting hehe. But that doesn't work with an smart attacker -.- Wasn't there a delay after join you have to wait before you can vote? Imo that is very effective because the vote bots don't stay on the server normally they are just connected to vote.

The attacker would just make his bots more player like i guess ^^ as you can see there now is a delay to be part in kickvotes after joining

ah k
