Also Its not Zapk only, it was Party at my house, TreeAtmos, and 1/4 of the players i didn't mention.
23 players total, Outpact mentioned 3 people (1/4, 3*4=12)
12/23 people were spamming. More than half the server was spamming, but ZapK is the one getting stuff on.
So you basically shot someone to prove that their bulletproof armor didn't work?
Except he didn't shoot anyone, he used a script to spam chat for a minute to truly show Ostinyo his teamchat was broken. The server title is "Ostinyo's Challenge!" So one may assume it was an obstacle-course type server (I didn't go, so I'm guessing here.) That being said, teamchat would not be a necessity, so that could easily be overlooked by Ostinyo. If you can name one player that was harmed by ZapK, then I apologize for questioning you on the matter, but honestly that's kinda silly.
the harm is that you along with other handicaps flooded people's screens and annoyed them

/votekick ZapK
Have an administrator mute him
Have an administrator kick/ban him
Zapk went full idiot on this one, "Showcasing a bug" hah.
Why didn't you just say it was broken?
And didn't getting kicked, you know... 3+ times give you the mental message to stop?
Are we not all
aware of the bug now?
Because he was bored, wanted to see how script would function in chat, and because honestly, if someone told me something on my server was broken, I wouldn't remember to fix it. You can't really forget something when someone breaks it right in front of you.
He did what, in those circumstances, a spammer would do: not be deterred by a kick, and continue on doing it. Look at the TTT players (who are still around anyways,) kick them and they'll come RIGHT back and get back into it. Kicking isn't an effective means to stop a spammer, and he proved that point
If an admin had asked him to stop, and he blatantly ignored the admin and continued to spam, and his spam was somehow hurting the game in some way, then yeah I would think ZapK really needs to think about what he's doing a little better.
But from what I can tell, he wasn't asked to stop, and he wasn't hurting anybody.
