I still stand by that the tag should remain mandatory to have before being an active admin that uses admin commands.
Having that extra layer of "requirement" not only helps identify the admin easier in chat, especially since many of us have a shitton of custom skins/textures.
Sure, the call feature is nice, but veteran players know the admins usually, and newcomers simply get overwhelmed when typing new commands at times.
But most importantly, requiring the person to add that ibis.a tag in his/her name before using admin commands is also another layer of protection for any admin that's on tilt or in a rage-induced state.
I can't tell you many times "I" have been triggered by certain fucks that specifically targeted me when I was an admin, and how many times I just wished i could just perma ban them for the day, even though it would get reversed and I'd lose my admin rights.
Having to actually go in and add my ibis.a tag JUST to abuse gives you a moment to reflect about what you're about to do. It puts it in perspective.
If you wanted to commit a murder/suicide, it's far more likely for you to do so if you were carrying the gun in your hands at all times than having to walk a few blocks to the store and purchase one with money spent out of pocket first before the deed.

That's just the practicality of having to have the tag on, having ibis.a in your name helps with advertising for the server even when you're not logged in to steam... and considering that many players moved on to GO, I'm sure you can bitch less about having 6 chars taken out of ur name in order to keep a server you play on alive.
And don't get me started about the fact that having ibis.a in ur name as an admin helps conditionning hackers to automatically associate "ibis.a" with "there's an admin on board" and no tags around with "aha no admin around, i can do whatever i want and not get caught immediately", vs the "oh this server doesn't have mandatory tags, ima have to run a check to see who's who first."
And bam, we're back to the whole "extra step" to do before doing smthn shitty, but in reverse: in this case you WANT them to accidentally use admin when an admin is chiling in spec without a tag, or the likes, because better they commit the shit while u're watching, even off duty, than when no one is.
