Turns out this plugin has a major flaw which psychonic has tried to help me fix but so far we have not been successful. He would have to explain the "why" behind this but I can at least explain the "what".

Silenced players are still able to use this plugins commands, such as /voteban /votekick etc. It has something to do with this plugin using the trigger system.

If someone else out there has already found a fix for this please let me know

Sourcebans 1.5f? Is that one of the forked versions by sarabveer? Call me crazy but that might be your problem.. it works on 1.4.11 which is the official Sourcebans version.

So i take it there is no point in using this plugin with that flaw you mentioned, right ?

Not at all. You can still use it and it will work, you just can't block anyone from using the commands because of how it is coded. What that means is if you silence people for vote abuse, like we do on my servers, they could still call votes. That's the flaw.

So I take it as there is currently no alternative to https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=72058 ?

From basecomm.inc:

PHP Code:

/**
 * Returns whether or not a client is gagged
 *
 * @param client        Client index.
 * @return                True if client is gagged, false otherwise.
 */
native bool:BaseComm_IsClientGagged(client);

We have noticed this as well...it doesn't have anything to do with !votemenu or !settings commands?

I'm not sure what you are trying to say.

You said that silenced players could still trigger votes.

So you could just check if the client it's gaged (since silence is just mute and gag ) and return Plugin_Continue if he/she is gaged, something like this:

PHP Code:

public Action:OnClientSayCmd(iVoter, const String:strCmd[], iArgc)
{
    if(!IsValidClient(iVoter))
        return Plugin_Continue;
    if(BaseComm_IsClientGagged(iVoter))
        return Plugin_Continue; 


And I think that you need to check it on Command_ChooseVote too.
