[REJECTED] Freezing while spectating
Ok I've been an Op for a few days now, and have used /spec many times already to prevent grief, but I have noticed one limitation of it. When starting to spec, you are told who you are speccing. But that name quickly gets lost in a sea of chat. So to freeze, I've had to unspec and hunt down their name, so I propose this:
What if while speccing, typing /f and following it with no name freezes whoever you are speccing? For example, a guest cries out that a certain "GrieferN00b123" is griefing them. So I go over there, warn, and shortly dispose of him with a kick. Just a moment later, he logs back in, so I spec him. I forget his name, but when he griefs, I only type /f (or /f spec) and he freezes once more. As it is right now, I must unspec and try to find his name. I don't think having /f freeze your spec subject be too difficult to add, and it would be very useful. Let me know what you think!
Hell, even a /whospec that repeats the message "you are spectating (blank)" would help with this.

Re: Freezing while spectating
In fact not dupe, as intertooth suggested combining info with freeze. I suggested instant freeze of a spec recipient.

Linked the wrong thing. Still a dupe though

Re: Freezing while spectating
Sanjar if you can find the post that this is a dupe off of, by all means link it. I have searched the suggestion board and found nothing like this. I even went to the "server questions" section and still found nothing. Even in the Op section, there is nothing like this. As of right now, I have seen no proof this is a dupe.

Re: Freezing while spectating
This isn't court, you don't need to try to sound older than you are. Pretty sure there already was a discussion going on about something that includes your suggestion. Oh look here it is.

Re: Freezing while spectating
Also just typing "/spec" by itself will tell you who you are spectating.
