I'm new to eGO and I play the Office server only, not really a fan of Dust2. The point I'm trying to make is, are e's allowed to moderate the servers? We don't have any power to in force anything, and I know that our job is to set a kind of roll model status when we play. I felt like asking because I've seen a lot of e members who try to act as if there Admins and it really kind of gets old since there are tons of eG's and eGO's sitting on both teams.

Myself, I usually don't say much to the rules as I know I'm still new and don't wanna backseat moderate. I leave it for the big guys & gals.
 
If you know the rules and someone is breaking them tell them to wise up or wanr them, if they continue an admin will take it from there. Some admins like to see if e's can take charge. Let the higher up's know that you have knowledge of the rules :P
 
Just play and have fun, if there is no other admins on then you can say things like please watch the language

but you dont have any commands and when another admin is on I wouldnt do anything but play.
 
You can get a hold of Admins eather by the shoutbox, I'm watching it all the time when i'm at my PC, Odd a few EG or EGO's to your steam ... you also have Mric and Vent to get a hold of someone.
 
Yep, all the above reasons are correct.
If someone curses, or any other warnable action, first alert the admins (if there is any) in the server. You can do this by prefacing a team chat message with @, then following with your message. (i.e. Existence on T just cursed in all chat)
They will typically warn, and handle it from there. However, if they do not respond they are either AFK, or discussing it in admin chat. If after 2-3 more minutes, and the admins still have no response what so ever, feel free to warn.
If that player apologizes, continue playing. If he curses some more, go fetch an eGO.

Also, please remember that we can't catch everything, especially if its in dead or team chat. So, alert the admins first, if they don't respond, warn. And, PLEASE use correct spelling/pronunciation. Nothing is worse than, "plz wacth the language or u gona b baned".

eG's and eGO's have server admin. If no eG's or eGO's are present, it is a good idea to remind others of the rules.
 
I'd say just like the other ppl here. If they do something just tell them the rules. If they continue contact an admin. But dnt like yell at the person or ne thing.
 
Yes, like British just said, let them know about the rules, as pubs they probably aren't familiar with eGO server rules. Also, the admins can't see everything that is typed and hear everything that is said; if someone curses in deadchat and the admin(s) is still alive, you should take action. However, if you see an admin is taking action i.e. warning them, leave the actions to the admins. Many times I see e's being way to reactive to a violation when an admin is already taking care of it, and it just makes the situation more chaotic.
 
Summary:
As long as you don't get overeager and hinder admins, feel free to enforce the rules, but first alert admins if they're not alerted already and try and let them handle it from there. If no admins are online, you may enforce yourself.
