Absurd Minds

nickstar.ftw.openredstone.org

It executes the uptime status with a PHP file hosted on the server itself. Because of network issues and weirdness, the server can't host the working page so I have another web-server (same server that is hosting the stats page) to fetch the raw uptime output and cut the string accordingly.

This is the index.php hosted on nickstar.ftw.openredstone.org and it fetches this at logs.openredstone.org.

I want to take the steam ids we post in the calladmin threads and the ones in our ban list and put them in a database. I want some way to flag and admin or make a message appear that this person has been a problem before. thats the basics but it could have a lot more function. Even if we could leave the game out and just have the something pick up steam ids we put in that thread and store them somehow for us. Does any of this sound feasible.

It sounds feasible. I would have to see the source-code for the plugin though. If it isn't open-source I would have to setup a new Steam account just for that to record messages and save them.

Well, Amaroq got steam id's in this thread. Not sure if that helps the think tank.

Also, could a bot be made that sits Spectate and just gathers the Steam ID's every 1 minute and sends it somewhere. If there is a match which is checked every 1 minute, then maybe "www.absurdminds.net/adminsonly" changes from some green markers (indicating that the server has no warned people) to yellow (indicating caution, somebody in the server has been warned). And you could click it to show the steam id.

It's really easy for me to come up with these ideas since I haven't even the most basic skills in coding
I used to edit my profile and shop in Neopets with HTML so I'm pretty much a full-time coder.

They seem to have a web-based RSS feed written in PHP that can be hosted from the game server. This would be easier to try and setup something to just get and compare databases from, but not the most efficient. I would honestly try contacting the devs about the possibility of adding a "this is the Xth time this user has been reported" as they still seem semi-active on GitHub.

well they had plugins exactly for what I want in 1.6 but they were really heavy plugins. I Wanted something lighter if possible. I didn't know if you thought you could learn any of the programming for cs.

It is C, which Java is based on C, so they are very similar and not too hard to learn the differences of. Either way, getting full dev support from the guy who made it is highly recommended from my part as he knows how his system is setup and the simplest way to implement the system.
