The voting filter - Firetrout - 12-28-2013

People just put spaces in the map names, so instead of stadium, it's now

Ya it's probably going to be pretty hard to block without eliminating chat completely during voting, but hey, it's a step. I mean you could always do 0utpost or sta di um or any combination. Another step might be just to have VIP's and OP's enforce it more, depending on a number of things. First off, to my understanding, this problem began with outpost and stadium being played too much, so maybe implement my other suggestion of limiting the number of times those maps can be played would help clear up this problem.

P.S. Thanks so much jacob_ for all your efforts and time put into this server!

Jacob Maybe you could make it so when someone types the first 3 or 4 letter in succession of a map name that it wont let you send the message which will keep people from putting spaces. I don't know could you do that?

Stadium is going to be replaced with central.

There's no good way to block map-spamming completely other than disabling chat completely, and I don't want to do that. I agree that anyone trying to bypass the filter should be kicked.

I'm with you jack, I think your idea is great. And personally even if people yell out map-names, do you think that it really effects how people vote that much? I mean it may some, but not that greatly, idk what are other people's thoughts on that?
