hey @Zatline, how are skins going?

yeeee i wanna see! feelsamazingman

admins are saying that the ability to see, who exactly is the admin, sucks

20:23

makes work harder.

1

you can modify it server-side

20:26

don't send the flag if you don't like it

it's bad in gerneral, I'm proposing a removal

it's only bad if you are worried about people cheating I guess

atm, not, in 2 years yes

20:42

cuz then we'll have the bots

20:42

etc

20:42

there are already some botters running around

20:42

but that's a miniscule part

its a one-liner

20:44

but yeah, could be changed I guess

I'm thinking about the heaviliy increased possibility to create cheat clients without admins noticing them at all

20:45

as bot detections are rather hard to do

20:45

watching you + is admin -> turn bot off

20:46

at least make it optional, in order for admins to be able to hide their presence

If you are a dedicated admin, you can spec in free view (edited)

well, no xD

20:47

especially not with a sense of 12500

admins are only admins when they login on rcon

sens*

tru

needs to be logged in once maybe?

I always follow people with the mouse :| I forget I can actually lock on them

and the client knows who has been an admin on this server?

logged in, yes

20:48

there is no history obviously

20:48

rcon logged in = admin, that's all

the malicious client could keep track of who had been logged in

but thats very inconvinent to not be logged in all the time, id rather mod the server

and if you wanna ban somone, you will need to log in anyway

I mean, people know who the admins of a server are in general

20:48

it's not a critical secret and shouldn't be

20:49

you can log back in under another name if you want to watch someone without them knowing you're admin

or hide your presencem while being able to always ban somone, and not be funvoted

the only problem with the current feature is if you're relying on the secret that someone is admin

people do and on ddrace it's damn annoying to be an admin, as people annoy you, for example

20:50

just an example, I heard just now

why would people annoy you more if you have the power to ban them

tons of pms maybe

20:51

?

20:51

do you ban everyone for getting a pm from them?

and they wouldn't know you are admin from the name

exactly because of you being logged in rcon

or just because they know he is admin?

highly frequented servers, maybe new people all the time?

that too yeah

and those new people use tricks in call vote to figure out who is admin?

i dont think anyone does that

[teeworlds/teeworlds] Pull request opened: #2223 Bam: add 'libs' target to prevent first-time build from failing due to missing dependencies

git pull https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/
bam\bam

should work, yet it never has. This adds a target libs and finally fixes https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/issues/2136

yeah, it's always possible to callvote somone to check, whether they might be an admin, but there is a rather small chance that somone would call vote, in order to check that

well that's how you check that people are admins, @jxsl13

the current client hides admins from kickvotes in gerneral?

20:53

so

yes

or is it just the gamer?

no

20:53

the only difference between 0.6 and 0.7 is that you can figure it without kick calling

that's a big hurdle , just to vote to check out whether someone's an admin, compared to just looking at the list of kickable players.

20:55

sometimes some stealth action is needed.

Hiding, who they watch + hiding that they are admin.
