Just fall down. Or take randomly someone.

Can you make an autoban if someone avoid combine by rejoining.

What if someone wants to switch to combine?

Add a timer before he can switch, like, you type /switch but you have to wait 5 more seconds to be able to choose a team.

that can be a good idea. Or, when someone dies, he can't switch back until round starts.
What I mean is, when there is no combines, you type !switch, and when you die and get switched to combine and you try to avoid by pressing "rebels" you can't. You have to wait next round.

Perhaps make it so you can still get an intel, when you acidently unwrapped a player present.

I haven't been on the server for a while so if there is this option yet I praise you to excuse me.
The fact is that sometimes the HUD doesn't fit well with the map background.
So i've think of giving to the donators and sold in the !store some differents HUDs : Black,green,red,etc etc.People could choose their own color,if they like green then they'll pick green,if the map is dark then they'll pick red,...
To go far,I could suggest to download some "custom HUD",made by the servers players or by another person on the web (If they allow the owners),to download their custom HUDs to the server.With a pic,they could each be sold for an amout of points,or free for the donators.
This is not a big deal with the deathrun atmoshpere,this will change nothing to it but well It could give some more advantages to being a donator.

Anoher idea that could be realized,is to add to the donator menu and the !store a gravity gun : If the player/donator buy it/pick it,then by the "fire" button pressed with this gun on,it could "destruct" the automatic traps (You know,the ones where we walk on them and you fall).It could help the users of all kind,I don't see alot of bad points,maybe the noise or the abuse of it but we could limit the use of it.If you think about the user throwing a prop to the combines,the map-maker or the owners could add "invisible walls" between combines and rebels.

It could give some more advantages to being a donator.

Otherwise here's some more skins :

For the last one,as it's a retex,you'll need to download the original on Gmod,the link will be on the description.

Bullshit, you can download your own HUD.

Yes,but not changing it when you want.You need to quit,choose/install/download the next one,then come back,and idk if we can do the same for the colors.But having them already on the server !shop or the donators command will be easily for the ones who don't have the time for searching one,quiting,re-connecting and all.
It was just a suggestion to have a little bit more possibilities as a "rich" player/donator,and for some more customization.
But I believe that you're better than me in computering (Not even sure if its spelled like that),so I let the you,admins/owners debate or take a decision about it.

You cannot edit the HUD while being ingame, and even less can a server edit your HUD.

The only thing Ant/Nick could do, would be to change the textcolor of the donator-menu, to make it more (/better) visible.

Otherwise,i tought of something,not a big deal so i post it here :

Why not making "Premieres" for new maps ? I mean,choosing a date in the week where the map will be played for the first time,when the most of the players are on the server.With this would come a !calendar command to see when will be the next Premiere,for wich map,etc,etc...It could displays important dates,months,years,etc too,like a "real" calendar.

We kinda release stuff randomly. If we feel like converting something it just happens. It's not a planned event usually.

Otherwise,here's what I tought about :
A command that we could type in the chat,!forums,wich would make appear a screen like for the !music comand,but with the forum,forums thread,etc etc,and it would work like on the "normal" internet browser.
Why this ? Because Steam browser totally sucks.Does not work good,making game crash,being unavailable,etc etc...
This command would be,like for the !shop command,only available to spectators.

Because Steam is mad on you and will make you crash.
[Spoiler]No really. Steam browser works perfectly fine.[/Spoiler]

Mmh,not really...
Me and few other persons on the server spotted that.
So,if a day Ant could make this menu,why not ? It could be easier for some persons.
