amx_last for ALL admin??

I think this power (amx_last) should be provided to ALL admins and not just 3* and up because its a great tool to have as an admin to see peoples IP adresses and steamIDs for the hackers that leave before getting a screen shot of the sql_bans_menu. I have forgotten to get an IP address and/or a steamID before and this would have really come in handy for those instances. What do you guys think?

This has been explained here before, but I will do it again. Only Captains and above can do this in .40 cal based that at that level if you are a more seasoned administrator then that responsibility can be given. Not everyone makes it to that level or shows that discipline and we can't just give that access to everyone. Now you guys have the sql_ban option that is almost like amx_last, allowing you to see the IP address of the player.

Understood, I did not know this was a topic already. I hear you on the sql_menu i was just suggesting it because i am very forgetful and this would come in handy for me personally. In the future i will try not to be so forgetful and get the IP/steamID through the sql_menu until i earn the responsibility. Thanks for the input Hawk :D

I disagree with HAWK and agree with KID.
It's amx_last for "pete's" sake, not amx_ban or amx_kick

It does nothing. Just shows steam id of the players who left.
What's big deal?

Imagine a scenario: A wiseguy comes in and curses to the left and to the right, KID is the only admin online, he warns the guy twice, but the guy doesn't understand.

KID creates a votekick, but asshole comes back and tells KID something within a lines of: "f... f...... stupid admin, blah blah (insert f-word here) and leaves right away

Makes KID looks like a useless piece of junk in front of other players.

If our 1-2 stars admins had access to(I REPEAT INNOCENT COMMAND) amx_last, at least they can get the guy's steam id and report it to us.

And now KID is left naked with his thingie hanging for other player's humiliation.

I STRONGLY RECOMMEND to reconsider


OK I know a solution, KID should've typed STATUS in console the moment he saw that the guy is abusing the rules. That way he would've had the guy's STEAM ID



COME ON, let's not be a hard-asses here, it's just AMX_LAST command. It's as innocent as a nun doing squats in cucumber field

I remember asking a higher up about this before I got promoted and it remained the same. It is a very simple and useful command for all admins to use but Sammy has his reasons.

it could be linked to another command that certain level admins aren't suppose to have ... so it's not being hard asses ... it's knowledge of codes and programming ... or just common sense since it's been this way for ... ever .. been brought up before numerous times ... yet ... it's still the same ... hmmmmmm :roll:

and I think some things need to be earned ... gotta learn to do things the hard way before we hand it to you the easy way ...

if it can be done I'm sure sammy will consider it


locking for now so it's not an open debate
