Moved Here because I’m starting a whole new idea.

We can’t use an admin plugin on Left4Dead right now. Sourcemod conflicts with the matchmaking system and prevents the server from being populated from player lobbies or showing in the steamgroups list.Right now, the only admins are Nickname and myself as we both have RCON to the server.
Reason I brought this up was this:
I was wondering if it was possible to hook up a plugin that allowed players to ask for an admin to hop on and help. I’ve seen it in action on a server yesterday when “Zoey” had an obvious Aimbot and her team would not kick her. Someone on my team typed in “!help” and within 5 minutes a player hopped into spectate and banned them without taking a player spot.
Now, I don’t know how widespread L4D hacks will be, or even how servers will manage to deal with them, but this could be a helpful idea later on down the road.
What server were you on? If we could find out what they’re using we could install it on our own server.

I play some more tomorrow evening and see if I stumble onto the server. I’ve played on it multiple times, so there are good chances I’ll get lucky.
well I have some other ideas I just haven’t gotten around to. Normally it isnt a problem because of the vote kick but sometimes yeah an admin can be useful.
I have seen conflicting reports of success getting sourcemod l4d servers to auto populate. I am planning to backup the server as it is now and give sourcemod another try. The real reason for this however is not for the admin module, but rather so that we can get in-game stats working (right now stats are logged but cannot be viewed in-game). I will try to work on some of this stuff during this next week while I am setting up the LAN servers.
