THIS is the second guy in top of players having some time spent in server, I don't get the point of complains, admin just need to setup "RULES" in server adds or whatever methods VIA MapVote Info Section and then you can point the player to those sentences called rules. Perhaps another one has an ID looking for attention.
CurrentStatus.PNGLight me, server was running only those 1 2 maps ? By looking at favorite maps, I see there a couple of maps played and the guy has SCORE proving that he has played more than 1-2 maps.
Admin managing that server should setup VISIBLE rules or a route to rules: You are here for playing a game not for spamming chat with debates out of game subject. If you are wasting some resources, just Play the damn thing or get lost.

Note: I was playing into random servers where people are not reacting so sweet with new comers, they might talk sh!t even if game doesn't need debates, especially NON TEAM-GAMES. So I'm deactivating voice messages and I'm simply ignoring whatever is shown in HUD toward written messages, game is my focus not the chat-box. If nobody speaks with him maybe he won't talk alone over there, right ? Even Nexgen HUD can be disabled (has bugs anyway which no one is fixing) and then messages stay less time. Also I think Kelly was sharing a mod for limiting messages spam, admin should figure this, if jester wants to be capped like that, then maybe this is the right thing to do as a nice domestic measure. A Ban for doing nothing so nasty (did he cheat ?) I don't think it's the right choice, just motivate player to play rather than chatting crap. There are IM apps for that task providing even encryption not like a two decades old game where data has raw format that can be captured and read.

Probably it's doable a small mutator as server actor, an entire domestic thing for doing... nothing else than warning some player (configured in some INI file) for let's say 2 times when he is joining after 3-4 seconds from entrance and game start.
Assuming a virtual configuration:

• PlayerAddress[0]="xx.xx.xx.xx"
  ...
  WarnMessage[0]="Please refrain from long debates out of game subject. People are here for playing."

After sending message to said player for let's say 2 times. Mod will update itself to null values until next case. Player entered will figure the warning right in the middle of screen so he can't say that he was not warned. Banning people because are speaking without informing them about this supposed "bad habit" it's not a good practice, just saying.

Another way simple method already doable it's VIA ServerAdds mod already made. Has a few lines that can be written in INI and then everyone can figure what's the deal. For future debates, broadcast forum address with a message how to record/copy messages for pasting them into Internet Browser if player has difficulties at this point or ScreenShoot-ing the frame with message for browsing forum in future. Once again, "godless" is player number two in game-tracker stats, so I think he is a regular one and not really a trouble maker if he could gain that position which will need a bit of respect in such a case, because he doesn't look as a random roamer mooing in servers like I saw in other places.
