Re: Captain, Security and RSR 4 (and RSR 9)

I really don't know why captain players have such an obsession with needing to kill/hunt antags.

Re: Implementatiopn of voting bans.

Voting for a new map being enabled at server reload/initialisation always feels silly - there should be a code option to time-lock types of votes or something, so you cant vote on the next round's map until everyone settles into the current one a bit.
