Getting rid of admin abuse in JA+

Please sign up and vote [yes], this is about removing the moronic admin [abuse] commands in JA+, like amslap, amslay, and ampunish. It's not that much, but a big step in the right direction still.

I agree with Jacen. As for these type of admins, I'd suggest they have a few lessons on how to run a server properly before downloading any mods/files for their server.

JAR may become more popular as it proceeds, but unless Orion puts emotes in JAR, I honestly don't think it will become as popular as JA+. But I do understand that Jedi Academy isn't really an RPG, and that Orion shouldn't have to put emotes into his mod just to make people happy and stop using a mod that has such crazy features for server admins to administrate their servers.

With the features in JA+, which go beyond those needed for an administration mod, I think it's more of an RPG-type mod, not something every server should have, but something most servers seem to want. But if everyone wants mods to RP on their servers instead of an administration mod, then so be it it.

Why not at least try to get rid of the abusive commands in JA+..? Try to think beyond the whole rivalry between JAR and JA+, please, and think about the greater good of the community.

I'm sorry to say it, but I honestly don't see that happening.

But I'd say the problem isn't abusive admin commands, it's abusive admins. An admin can be abusive on JAR too, Slider just makes it easier.

Looks like he's turning it into an RPG mod, from what I've seen on that trailor...

ja+ is a bad mod for more than just abusive admin commands, dont know why you'd need them anyway. I mean when you're coding a mod and you're adding in an admin slay command you never once think "hmm, maybe this could be used in a poor and distasteful manner" the sabering system is like rolling a dice also ^_^

kick and ban are useless but multiple laming commands are flat out awesome. good job slider, you ruined christmas and by christmas i mean 80% of current JK3 servers.

I wouldn't bother voting if I were you guys.

JAR will be taking the driving seat as far as Mods go soon enough anyways.

If all the people there that voted 'yes' really want the admin abuse stuff cleaned out, all they have to do is download JAR.
The JAR Mod was built with this in mind right from the start.

Yeah ths shadow effects were awesome, and I found the skin expansion he used for it here, but Virtue says it's not star wars themed so he won't add it to our servers. I personally love it, I wear it on pubs now.

I thought the shadow effects were really impressive, I liked those, and that skin was pretty neat (very hippyish :D:D:D:D).

Other than that, I wasn't too fond of these new moves added in.

Well, I don't know if any of you have seen the trailer for the new version, but a few things he added in it seem somewhat promising. Now, I know this is complete blasphemy by saying this but, once Slider decides to fix the entire sabering system, as well as remove abusive admin commands, I think JA+ could turn out to be a great mod.

I was thinking that, but some don't know much about this (or JKA even), so they may have problems reinstalling the older versions. :eek:

So, as Sauce said, SHHHHHH! :P

Wouldn't the people who used abusive commands just keep the older versions on their servers?

Abusive admin commands in JA+? Really? Wow, I never would've guessed it. Oh, by the way, someone tell Slider to stop punishing and slapping me for joining a server and saying "Hi" instead of cussing everyone out. :mad:

.... for the sake of the game? It's the most popular mod in the game, and if the abusive commands were removed, the community might be a tiny bit LESS dead than it is now.
