How do you start a poll/vote to ban a user? This one user was being really annoying and no one knew how to ban them thanks[/code]

If you're registered, type this:

/poll ban <name>

to start a poll to ban that user. Keep in mind only registered people can vote in the poll.

To vote, type:

/vote yes or /vote y

to vote yes, and

/vote no or /vote n

to vote no. Before starting a poll, look to see if there's an admin on the server. Tell him your problem, and he'll deal with the situation better than if you were to start a poll.

Also, annoying is a very broad term. Be careful if you start /poll banning. Logs are read and if you are poll banning people for poor reasons (like they won't shut up) that is poll ban abuse and you will be banned. Bans are for breaking server rules (cheating, tking to much (not once or twice, because tking happens), swearing, etc but depends on the server). If the annoying thing is talking to much, silence them in your client and you won't hear them, if it is they are too good playing to then take it or leave. You get the idea.

use double quote around the callsign, if it has a space character. Like that:
