Just a suggestion. Instead of having people not able to join due to slot reservation, how about having it kick someone when a person with a reserved slot joins, this way people can still use up all the available slots. This is annoying because I can't even use the auto-join because the servers not full.

what?

you know how the reserved slot works, right?

the final slot on each server is automatically kicked, at all times. anyone in that spot gets kicked immediately. reserved slots just confer immunity to that kicking, so it kicks someone else instead.you can't join a full server, even with reserved slot.

Yea that is why on large servers like the zm I even have a few connection slots so that more than one reserved slot user can connect at a time. However, due to the recent valve updates there is a glitch where ghost players can fill server slots and NEVER be kicked. Valve is supposed to be fixing this but if and when that occurs we may not know for some time...

You know another solution is to order a reserved slot and then you do not need to wait to get in :wtg:

you also dont want an admin to join and kick the rulebreaker/hacker if there is a completely full server do you?

All I want is to be able to use the auto-join. The servers not full, but I can't join due to slot reservation. So I want to join when a spot becomes available, I can wait I have patience, so no need to buy a reserved slot.
