Report Suggestions 'n' Stuff. - Unpoke - 07-22-2015

So I've been a +Member for a coupl'a weeks now, and I think the report system could be smoother and more efficient if a few things were added including:
- A way for the staff member to respond to the reports directly to explain a rule/say if something is KOSable without interrupting the gaming atmosphere.
- Request a follow-up reply from either party (either with or without an admin response) to clear up something or so the reportee can ask another question
- Quick-reports*
- The ability for someone who is reporting and the return-reporter to access the damagelogs/shotlogs from the report menu and copy-paste or highlight where it happened.
* For the quick reports, there should be a drop bar that has the options of "RDM", "False call-out", "T-baiting/Karma baiting", "RDM t-buddy", "Attempted RDM", etc. so we don't have to see reports such as "H E DIDNT WAR NME WEN HE SHOT HIS GUN NEAR SKY SO I SHOT HIM OUT AND BOOM"

I feel like these would make handling reports much more efficient, quick, and easy.

The rdm manager wasn't made by brass so i'm not sure if he would feel comfortable editing someone elses code

it is a free addon released to the public on facepunch. I'm 99% sure that he is allowed to.

^This

He is allowed to edit the code as long as the original coder credits are still there.

It's not a matter of me being allowed to do it(as I already have, because I had to fix A LOT of things wrong with the release of it). It's the fact that if I make any major changes, and the original dev updates some core stuff later on(assuming I keep it up to date), it could conflict with my changes. So I try to stay away from modifying w.i.p addons that I did not create.

WASTE OF DEV TIME BRO


RE: Report Suggestions 'n' Stuff. - Grassx - 07-23-2015

Can't the majority of this be handled by talking to the two people? I get it would be more convenient to have the addons, but it seems pointless.

EDIT: I guess in hectic situations with a full server, I can see it being difficult to communicate..
