User spamming on GameArena Tremuolous #1

How can we call the admin and ban this user?

"call me MR BITCH" is spamming on that server, he connected 2 times with the same name and started voting for kicking ohter players or himself, saying that nobody can kick him.
Additonally he started spamming using the chat system and no one could play because of his millions of messages.

It's happening right now on GameArena Tremulous #1.

How can we warn the admin?

Yea, the gamearena servers are pretty crappy, still running old 1.1.0 code, there's no admins, no new maps, nothing. But the ping is great for us aussies.

There's a new aussie server called Custom-X which looks pretty promising, they also run a few NS servers. For now they're still running the old trem code as well, but I'm sure they'll get either either R1CH or tjw's version up and running pretty soon. Keep an eye out for an announcement from those guys, I know that the server admin there has an account on these boards.

Also, I've played on gamearena with mr bitch quite a lot and he's usually OK.

Well... maybe the guy I'm talking about used the name of another player... I'm not saying he's a cheater.

But I'm surprised that there isn't a field name "admin contact" or something similar under "server info".
It would be very useful, not only for spamming players.

Custom-X site is here: http://www.custom-x.net/

Don't bother too much with GameArena, they have a long history of idle admins in COGS (their version of Irc/GameSpy) and they are rarely seen on servers.

Yea, most of us who play on gamearena know how bad it is, but we have no other option because of our ping to non-Australian servers. All Custom-X servers are down for the time being.

edit: I've set up a new temporary server for those fed up with gamearena. Details here: http://tremulous.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1017

Using the contact form to contact GameArena is the best way:
