So I don't know where to put this, but this is really crucial at least in my opinion.
As a new player (kinda), it is quite frustrating to put up with people in Multi matches being AFK forever, people being really rude, and people not respecting the rules set up by the players that are serious in playing. Of course you can report them, mute them, or tell the host to kick them from the match but what if the host is going afk for a while and a tantrum comes up that is not legible for a report? Or if the host themselves are the one causing the tantrum by either kicking everyone for no reason or by being the guy who is always afk? The votekick feature is standard for most multiplayer games but in osu it is somehow non-existant, although osu is just fine without it, it would be better if it exists.
So, I propose a votekick command that will create a poll via pop-up menu or just strands of text by BanchoBot to initiate a votekick to a certain player. This can be initiated by any player and can also affect the host.
-Each player has only 1 votekick and then a cooldown of a 1-5 minutes (dependent on the amount of players) before the next one can be initiated (cooldown applies to all players)
-Votekicks can't be initiated by host since they can kick players easily
-When a votekick is initiated against the host, the host cannot kick players until the votekick concludes
-Votekicks cannot be initiated when the match is in-progress
-If a match starts while a votekick is still in progress, the votekick will be postphoned/paused
-Every player can vote except the player being voted
Those are all the ideas I have but they can be expanded.
So I'm thinking of something along the lines of "!votekick <player username> <reason>"
*If the player has a space in their name (eg. Pasta Man) they should be contained in quotations ("Pasta Man").
Anyways, those are my ideas on how the devs can implement this feature and I am hoping that this will get added in the future. That is all and thank you for reading. Please do express your ideas and opinions by replying (as long as it's following the guidelines).
Edit: I changed some words to make my point clearer, but they are really small.
Edit 2: I know that you can kick a host with an "!mp" command as a referee but in most cases absolutely no one knows it even exists...
