    Hello guys,

    Today we had an incident with hunter rejoining the server while he got vote muted.
    Since the votemute is only a session ban he never did nothing wrong because he decided to end his session early.

    So I'm suggesting that we change the votemute from a session mute to a 12 hours(?) or a day(?) mute.
    Just so we can't get those mistakes again.

    Let me think what you guys think about that.

    Downie out.


    Why can't I add a poll? Nevermind, found it

    Maybe just an hour? 12 hours or a day seems a bit too long.

    12 hours would probably be nice.

    24 hours seems unfair.
    12 hours should be fine, i suppose.

    If you get vote muted, you probably deserve to be muted for 12 hours.

    Well, You mostly don't get muted for a reason. If it's just 1 hour, Time goes by really fast. 1 day could be a bit long, So 12 hours seems reasonable.

    Voted 12 hours because there wasn't a 6 hour option.

    All I'm saying is, if I mute someone I never do it for more than 2 hours. If you think about how long a normal session lasts its about 30 minutes, if anything this should mute them for 30 mins :3

    I'd say the votemute should last for an day, but I also see everyone agrees on the fact that it should be 12.

    Well, up to the results, eh?

    Problem is that since we weren't there we can't judge on the situation.
    I normally mute people for 100 minutes or something. But that's because I could judge the "spam" at that moment. With a vote we can't

    I believe one day is *a bit* excessive, so 12 hours will do the trick. Definitely no longer a session, since people can just reconnect. BUT keeping it to a session can filter out the worse players...

    +1 Yes! Barely anyone who spams gets muted therefore it really takes something for people to get muted. So yeah, 12 hours.

    I agree with 30 minutes, I usually mute people for 30 minutes and then they are quiet or allready left. 12 hours is way too long (keep the troll votes in mind)

    Totally up for it. I agree that only a couple of hours will do the trick.
