I've been pinged enough on IRC to deal with him - including a complete ban from the serverlist.

That's not possible. Anyone can run a public server. All that the Minetest devs could do is set a policy about how you're allowed to run servers listed on the server list, but that would require presenting this policy any time you start the server and wouldn't be easy to enforce.

Read your sentence again and thing about it. There are admins on a server equipped with special powers to prevent normal players to behave wrong. Now when those admins abuse their status you want an über-admin that has even more powers to abuse and you hope that those will prevent normal admins to behave wrong.
If I ever find the motivation to set up a public server it will be without any admins or moderators.
And I think it is worth the effort to write some mods that remove the need for them.

Voting is a potential solution, but people could bring clones in order to vote. You may have to allow only 1 vote per IP to impede that.

/vote "/time 6000"
Casimir wants to execute "/time 6000". Current result of voting is 1/14. White either "/vote accept" or "/vote deny" to vote.

At reading this, one of the admin killed my friend, destroy his house, and killed me, i was shocked, i asked him why he had to kill me too, his response was " you was in my way" minutes later he ban my friend account and mines too.

jp wrote:Or rather : "try to behave in a manner which is compatible with the expectations of the admin". What is arbitrarily defined as a "good" or "bad" behavior doesn't often meet any logical criteria, but moral. There is no absolute truth to expect from morality, because its intrinsic nature is cultural & protean.
jp wrote:The nanny-ism, the surabondance of rules can also be stifling for players. Some puritans admins/mods are waiting for any microscopic opportunity to exercise their little bit of power they proudly have in the hands to offset some frustrations IRL... That's why the democratic poll could be a good thing.

We might consider this risk as part of the game such as a zombie's attack. We are not in real life trying to punish someone for rob an house.
