Just thought of this while looking through the Wish List. Why not have commands like "?playerkick=name" to kick players for the admins of the server? It could use the the username and IP of the user for them to be abl to use the commands. Maybe just basically have the basc controls. Ex: bans, kicks, race disqualify, race start/stop...

How 'bout it?

Yeah, this is a good one that's actually already on my list.  The way it would work is that the admin would first have to go to a special web page provided by FSHost, and login with the usual admin (or owner) username and password, and their player name in the game.  Then FSHost would know the person's IP address, and could match it up with the connection from their FS.  Once the person had been authenticated, they could issue admin commands through the chat window.  Of course, everyone will see what's being typed, since that can't be blocked, but it normally wouldn't be a problem I don't think.

Man, I thought I would be the first.
