I've been banned twice from the Bad Priests server for tking. Not sure if it's an autoban or admin but it was unwarented. Why? Because each time there was a serial TKer on the server, spawntking & killing throughout the game. So i waited at spawn & tk'd him. Then i took his MG, set up at spawn & evertime he spawned i took him out. After a while i went back to the game to see how he'd taken it but alas he went straight back to tking. So i told the other guys on the team that i would keep him down but they would have to relieve me & explain to admin what i was doing when they turned up & so went back to the spawn & kept this muppet away from the team.
The problem is no one would take over the job of keeping him out of the game. Also i was eventually banned for excessive tking, not sure if it was auto ban or admin but if it was admin i recieved no warning & had no time to explain or for the team to explain. It took me ages to get the ban lifted & i still don't know how it was unless it's a time thing.
So auto ban isn't really the answer because if i see someone TKing like that i always end up taking him out of the game so the team can play& that's all it takes to get rid of these muppets.
Another thing i do is add them to my buddies list. Then everytime i check my buddies if they are on a server i join on their team & chase them round the map reminding them of what they were doin to us a couple of nights before. Ok so they only have to change their names but a lot of people like to keep their names & it also teaches them a bit of a lesson. Imagine if all the team they were TKing added them & did the same when they saw their names?? They would soon learn how wrong they were.

You would be permanently banned along with the other guy on our server.
So you believe i should've just let this guy carry on tking the whole team??
The server was a public server so either have admin on or let the guys police themselves. To ban someone for controlling a rampant TKer i find small minded & unreasonable. If admin was there than no problem. But they weren't for nearly 30 mins & we had to put up with this guy.
What server do you belong to so i know not to go there as you seem to be more interested in rules & punishment than justice & fair play?
And why didnt u use the kick voting?
you would get the same treatment on our server tbh. and several others i know. TK is TK, i dont care for the intention. If i have a look at the server and people intentionally TK, they are gone. There is no obvious difference between a deliberate TKer and one who "tries to control" him.
It has nothing to do with punishment and enforcing it, he's teamkilling, you are teamkilling, end of story.
As for what you should have done, contact an admin. On a well admined server you will have no problem to find one very quickly.
the tk autokick needs to be set to ban till the end of the round otherwise its worthless. too many times lately i see some tker going nuts to get kicked just to rejoin and do it again. Admins not using this setting are just being reckless a 5-6 tk auto session ban would weed out the bad tkers without being a pain to all but the most careless nade spammers.

5-6 TK's would be one badly placed Arty barrage or the normal idiots you get who ignore the warning & insist on running into arty. I think there should be a way for atry tk's not to be included in the score or kick. After all it's very rarely the SL's fault but the idiots who run into the arty, so why should the SL be punished.

Kick voting is a joke.
Well for all you "well you'd be banned from MY server" power mad guys. I just left TDP server because of a TKer called Melia. He was on Minus 61 when i left. No one could kick vote him & no one could kill him due to spawn protection. He dropped satchels in spawn every time he spawned. So that's where your sad no common sense rules get us all. Guess i'll go watch TV.
