Gi-Go Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 The idea of someone wanting to kick people while staying clean and anonymous is extremely unpleasant to me. Why would you want this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the point is an important question. When a group of kick-griefers join and start kicking votes, i want to know who the imposters are (or more importantly, who i can be almost sure are not the imposters). I can manage to kick the leader who started the votes (it shows who started the vote), but now I can't trust anyone on the server. Where to put them is a secondary question. Why not in the chat right after the message about the result? like this: (For: nick1, nick2, nick3; Against: nick4, nick5, nick6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vote numbers are a first grade math, how could they miscalculate it and fail at kicking you? And if that happens, what are you gonna do next? Execute everyone who voted yes? Sound petty to me.

On the opposite case, if the person got kicked is the griefer, which what kick was original designed for, the griefer can start target griefing those who voted against them. What i would do is just count as everyone who remain after griefers kicking/ruined your world as the griefer. Even revealed who voted yes can sometimes give wrong result as there are newbies that just vote yes to everything appear on screen. 2 hours ago, Gi-Go said: Improbable.

Execute everyone who voted yes? Sound petty to me. Vote power belong to group with highest player count. A griefer can just join, play for 20 days to be able to start the vote, use 4 alt account to log in, and kick everyone else. Which is what op want to know, that which one is the accounts belong to the group of griefer. He mentioned specifically "group of kick-griefers" Will knowing what account belong to them help? yes. You can kick them before they reach 20 days mark the next time you see them. Edited March 22 by Tranoze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they have to use 2.5 hours to ruin 2.5+ irl days of work of 8 people, they would. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they have to use 2.5 hours to ruin 2.5+ irl days of work of 8 people, they would. I'm not a griefer or anything, but if I were to do a 20 day vote, I'd rather go for a regen, as it will give a better reaction, and you might not even need friends since people can agree to vote, and even defend you, because regen is not a hostile and personal vote, unlike kicking. As for ruining days of work, all community servers are somewhat moderated and you should probably discuss this issue with host. exception is klei officials of course, and those get regenerated daily which is for the best anyways, so people shouldn't really be attached to the progress they make there. But none of this matters, because knowing the names of people that voted yes won't achive much, since not only do names can be changed, but I struggle to imagen someone manually keeping track of people. On top of the fact that people often vote yes just because they are kids and don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So most likely the reaction there is only those who played at the same time as the griefer know about it, the rest will remain emotional undamaged. On other hand, if the world is keep but all base destroyed, players who played the previous day will join and know, and they dont know if the griefer will ever come back again and grief them all again, and play in fear is much worst feeling than the world just regen and everyone moved on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MondayNight Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Voting as a process is almost always secret when related to people's options. Why do you need to know who voted what? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you need to know who voted what? If you are referring to politics, it is not the same. In politics the vote doesn't kick somebody, but promotes. How is keeping secret the identities of people who want to actively hurt me for no reason a good thing? I already said why i need to know who voted what in this thread - when kick-griefer group starts kicking people, if i could see who is voting "no", me and every non-griefer on the server will know who to TRUST. Otherwise when you manage to kick the leader who was starting the votes, what proceeds is just a wild west where everyone blames everyone and noone knows the truth. Paranoia overtakes the server.

How is target griefing worse than already griefing the entire server? Also, when somebody is actually griefing, everybody except for their buddies vote yes, so they already know that information.

They start votes and act as if they are in the right and people fall for it. In my experience they often just start the vote without any notice or explanation and simply watch the chaos ensue. There is a window of oppurtunity to get rid of them before they get the majority. No executions nor pettiness required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranoze Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 (edited) 2 hours ago, Cr4zyFl4mes said: when kick-griefer group starts kicking people Just because people started a kick vote on you and succeed doesnt mean they are kick-griefer group. If they really are, they probably kick all of you before you have a chance to join back to kick the leader, then they will do what ever they want (regen server, destroy world...), then leave. By that time, you should know who ever remain in the server without being kicked IS the group. If you managed to go back, kick the leader, they probably just one person managed to start the vote on you and few newbies just voted yes on everything they see. Yes they exist. And if you know who they are, most likely they will end up getting kicked even though they have no idea what going on. 2 hours ago, Cr4zyFl4mes said: How is target griefing worse than already griefing the entire server? It doesnt. But knowing who voted yes does allow more target griefing (instead of only griefing the kicker, now griefer can also target who voted yes). Knowing who vote yes doesnt stop people from kicking griefing entire server. People who can use multiple account to kick griefing, already have multiple account to switch each time you noticed them.

Oh yes, because when an information is only hinting at a fact and doesn't include an absolute certainty, it is completely meaningless -_-. As if i couldn't work with somebody being just suspicious. Plus, you are completely ignoring the main point - which is to know who isn't a griefer. Knowing who is is secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goatt Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Also, add a title, or allow title to be added after vote starts. Because a lot of times, Idk why vote happened, and I don't want to kick anyone by mistake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cr4zyFl4mes Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 I did realize one disadvantage - the kick griefers would get the information as well - meaning they would know's going along with their votes and who isn't and thus is to be targeted next.
