Your arguments make sense. In SourceBans 2 the password and email address aren't required anymore when adding an admin, so it would be nice to just add the name and Steam ID, and let admins log in via Steam.

ANYONE can log into your SourceBans web site using Steam Login. Now there are a few things that can be done in place. 1: Add the person's steam ID and their access anyway, but don't allow them admin access until they log into the web site. 2: Allow sourcebans a public registration system, but only give access to the people you pick and choose. 3: htaccess password protected location that you give password to only admins, then they Steam ID log in and then again, you STILL have to enter the access of the person. Either way you are still doing MANUAL entry. The 3rd point of this is, that's a potentially huge users database of people that you may not even want IN the users database. I really don't see how this is a more efficient way of adding administrators, I think it just adds clutter. |

This is how I imagine it: http://i.imgur.com/bysBbwW.png Personaly, I see no use for collecting all the steamID's if someone will login. Only allowing access to the (web) back-end to steamID's that are in the list. Everyone else will get redirected to the main page. |

The only thing I can think of that would be an issue is if Steam was down and you couldn't log in at all. In this case I think providing a fallback password would be ideal. If the site cannot access Steam it will request the fallback password. I'm not sure if the auth goes down enough to warrant such a thing, but something to consider.
You could have an option to require users to Steam login to submit a ban request/appeal. In the cases of appeals it would only allow you to do a ban appeal on a ban made against you. Similarly, it may be handy to have the SteamID of a person who submits a ban request for easy follow ups. Though making a user who wants to submit a ban request jump through hoops may not be a good thing. I do think requiring it for appeals would be nice. |

In discussion on #sourcebans on IRC we figured out one use case for a publicly register-able sourcebans...
