When you choose to be an admin, you have to take responsibility for the server. And yes it's a problem that most admins don't get compensated.
[/QUOTE]
Should they be compensated?
Unless your server has 50 shitty rules that admins must patrol for it isn't enough work to justify compensation imo.

Yes administration is real work and they should be. But there is currently no feasible way to do it monetarily.
Well there is, but most servers care more about spending shittons of money for coderhire 5min hud crap than to pay the people that do the real work.

Running a server itself could be considered real work, and some cuntbags milk that well dry as voraciously as possible. But the way I see it both are just parts of the hobby and should be done for your love of the game.
But maybe it could be done like facepunch's upgrades system; you buy the upgrade, or in a server's case, donate, 50% goes to my wallet to help with server bills, and the rest you can distribute amongst admins, or just give it all to the server bill? It'd work for me at least seeing as I don't mind paying a chunk of the bill myself.
Yeah that's how it should be done
Ruining RP servers is highly amusing for the majority of Garrys Mod players, myself included.
prop killing is fun, nuff said.
Ok so here is my stance on prop killing. I am an avid TTT player, with that being the main game mode I play, and I have been a regular with my community for about 8 months now, with 3 of those months being staff. I prop kill all the time. Let me explain. First of all, while I may prop kill all the time, I rarely ever prop RDM. I usually throw barrels at innos when I'm a traitor or carry a microwave as an inno and throw it at people that start shooting at me. The point I'm trying to make is that prop killing in non-RDM situations isn't something to be complaining about. I don't see prop killing any different from killing someone with a gun. Prop killing can even have it's advantages in TTT. It leaves no DNA, is a one hit kill if you do it right, it can be done as much as you want if you keep the prop, and often, you can prop kill someone in front of 3 innos and get away with it.
Obviously prop killing in some gamemodes is fine, the point of this thread is most likely point towards DarkRP.
I hate it when people turn off prop damage in TTT :(
As with other RDM, it depends if all people involved are okay with it, really

B-but Pantho! Propkilling ruins TTT!
it can't be measured by karma, it allows people to rdm, and propkillers rape people!

[QUOTE=LennyPenny;44858683]It's gmod after all, it wouldn't be the same without minges.
Just have administrators that don't suck and you'll be fine. And if you don't have those administrators, they will learn from those experiences and make your sever better as a whole. If they don't learn from it, they suck and probably shouldn't be admins in the first place.

How was it even possible for me to do this for like 15min without being banned. (I'm not even good at propkilling)[/QUOTE]
Garry's not against this on FP? (Lenny's Scripts and all)
And last time I checked Lennys had no visual recoil?
Garry does hate any form of clientside scripts, and has disabled sv_allowcslua by default.
It's still allowed on servers that have it on.

That might look fun, but like prop killing most servers with active admins you can only do it once!

Maybe there's an actual reason servers force half hour downloads upon players, to piss off prop killers.

Maybe.İ am only forcing the download of wiremod and atm.And propkillers come to my server a lot.

Sounds a bit like a shotgun approach.
Wait let me correct that, nuclear bomb approach. It affects everyone.

That document is the truth. It is how DarkRP came to be.
[QUOTE=FPtje;44849951]I think the biggest problem with prop killers comes from the ones that spawn toilets above peoples' heads. They don't know what they're doing. They barely manage to kill someone. There are few experienced prop killers as far as I'm aware. There used to be more of them.

After Propsareawesome retired from Gmod, Poki sort of died. He was teaching me with simply then sadly he left.
After PoKi died everything pretty much went downhill, this is my view of it anyways.
It wasn't so much props disappearing as it was crash, the PoKi leader, becoming unable to manage PoKi because of his real life obligations. I myself was too busy to take over his job.
Propkilling nowadays either consists of roleplayers using wheelspeed 999999, or "actual" propkillers separated into sort of gangs all congregating around a single entity, usually the one who has a booter.
It's really quite a mess.

Why dont you host PoKi server like with 8 slot and you can host it on saturday and make tournaments?

I just love that you have lua_openscript_cl 1 by default in darkrp! Thank you :D
That's not specifically done for prop minge scripts. Many clientside scripts are useful for roleplaying, building or general gameplay.

Clientside RP scripts? Like what for example.
Building yes, RP doubtful.
