kick reason

[notromda]

When voting to kick someone, it would be nice if you could put the reason for the kick as the last parameter of the command. Otherwise, I see a vote, vote fails in 3 seconds, then someone asks why, and then they vote again and it succeeeds...

iirc this used to be a feature in the game, but people abused it (i.e dicks, penis, etc.) so it was removed. i'd doubt its return.

contrary to popular circlejerk belief, pub-dwellers actually vote kick for legit reasons

So, people usually don't pass a kick because they want to know a reason. After that people sometimes still don't pass it because they haven't seen the guy do it.

Maybe a few vote commands could be added, which have reasons with them, so you can't actually type it yourself.

Such as 'bomb waster' and watnot. I honestly can't be bothered by it anymore, but there's certainly people getting annoyed by it.

I also give this idea the 'thumbs up',... but I don't see it happening...

Knowing why the vote is being called would make things easier, speedier, and less of a hassle.

My usual voting habit is to vote 'close' or 'no'... Unless I know WHY the vote is being called, and the player in question is either offensive to me, or being a pain in the a**.

is it really that hard to type out why beforehand?

People don't read it, because they couldn't care less.

so then why would they read the vote kick reason?

Something I like to do is type out the command including the player's name, then copy it to my clipboard. Next, I send the reason for the kick and immediately afterward I paste and send the command. Works fine for me, and since it may take a few secs to type the command, using this method they are right after one another.

or you could just type faster.

Because it would be shown within the kick message parameters?

he's saying people are more likely to pay attention to the blue text of the vote than to the yellow chat
