Yeah it was a total mess for about 10 minutes. At least 3 players spamming incessantly in Spanish. I think they managed to trip the spam ban after a while.

This happens everyday when staff are not online, it isn't anything new.
I find it is impossible for the server to actually have a nice, clean chat without staff online.

Names and screenshots tend to be useful so we know who to investigate.

The problem with this is these people are every second and would honestly clutter the bans forum due to the shear numbers of these people and how often they appear, to be able to get even most of them would be a issue as people would have to take many screenshots.

You wouldn't believe the size of my screenshots and Fraps folders. I'd personally rather see Ban Requests and evidence over threads like this.

I think people forget, we are human too. It's not our job to Staff the server every minute of every day. If something happens when noone is online, it's rather simple - Gather evidence and post a ban request. That's how it is and that's how it's always been.

Of course, but there is a reason why there are multiple staff and that is so you can cover each-other. There are enough staff currently to make sure that there is atleast 1 online 95% of the time. There is an issue in time-zones, Intelli hired many people who are online at the same time and this is clear since when I am online there is usually no staff.
