Hello and a good day to all of you.
So having recently become a trial, I have learnt about source ban and how admins should extend the length of a ban on any person who has prior bans on record for that offense.
For this, the admins must alt+tab outta TF2, then come to the site, view SB and dig up the player by first taking his SteamID from gameME, then pasting it in the SB search section.
As it happens, this method is IMO kind of long, especially for people with an internet no better than a snail (like me ). Also it can take some time confirming the player's identity.
Now the server automatically tells us when a player connects of any prior ban(s). What it doesn't tell us is the record of those who were already there.
I was thinking that maybe we can add some sort of plug-in or maybe a SM command (I heard that "sm_listsbbans <SteamID/Username>" is something but it doesn't work on duel, at any rate) that could possibly list any previous bans of a player on executing a command, avoiding the 'longer' process. Maybe just repeat the SB check that comes when a player connects, you know?
So yeah, that's about it. What do you all think?
P.S: Since I am still a forums noob, please notify/move this to the proper thread if I wrongly posted this here!
