Ugh. That would just be annoying and tedious. Let's just add Clippy from the old MS Office instead.

"It looks like you're trying to ban someone. Would you like to gouge your eyes out instead?"

I would think certain serious commands would warrant an "are you sure?" dialog. It's too easy to accidentally hit the wrong number.

I also think of this as more of an opt-in policy where we specifically decide for command "Foo" to have a confirmation. It wouldn't be on any command by default.

I think the confirmation sounds like a good idea on perma bans. Not that I actually have the ability to perma, but the unban threads are definitely peppered with accidental source game bans.



It's always a good time on the test server, and I'm glad to have helped in any way!

If we do it all I'd like to see it as a user option. We really don't have that many cases of fat fingering..

fair enough

more like drunk mashing

Just checked and it does.

For any chat command it's supposed to look for:
"<any amount of space>command<any amount of space>rest of chat text"

so things like " @kick tractor" should also work
