I want to ask if there is any plan to make some basic website autentization in 1.2.
That mean:
1) Player need to register on website
2) After that he can log in into game and play
Without registration cant play, or can only spectate.
Why?
- unique nickname
- less deconners

I'm not very experienced with this stuff, but there was a mysql admin.dat patch for Tremulous. Perhaps if you modified it a little, you could make it do what you wanted. Also, you could modify Lakitu's adminbot to move anyone whose guid isn't on a whitelist to spec.

How?
There's nothing to stop me creating a new account on your website every time I get banned.
Probably wouldn't be too hard to script it to auto-register every time I start trem.
Either you charge per account (yeah right) or it won't work.

It's probably easier to force anyone without at least L1 to spec and only allow L1s to join. You can manually setlevel new people.

Are there _that_ many deconners around that this is necessary?

I remember in some game (Allegiance?) where you can make many player accounts using same email account, yet you can keep your rank what it was before, but of course, nothing keeps you making new email accounts all time.

Did I said that there is something what will stop you?
Do you have same opinion on admin command "ban"? (why to implement ban or kick, when nothing will stop you to connect back?)

Well, that can be enough and admin.dat (setlevel) can be done by php, directly from website. But there will be some limit with admin.dat file size. That mysql solution sounds better, but harder to implement.
