clients that enable IP address change and bots are getting more and more frequent and recently some player kicked almost all others tees from a server by cheating the vote ratio, he (his name is "vali") would just call vote on anyone for god knows childish reason, calls about 20 bots (all named in random numbers) they all vote yes and the poor guy gets kicked before he can even read the reason. all in an instant. if you are a legit player and you are not a moderator, too bad for you, you are just helpless in such situations. How to deal with such injustice?

We have a filter for that, but it has too many false positives, so some normal players couldn't play.

People shouldnt be allowed to vote in kickvotes which already run when they join, will not solve the problem but makes it harder for the botter and u would have time to react when u see that there are some bots joining
