I also enjoy a good role play server but trying to find one where the admins are not assholes is like trying to find a duplicate snowflake in a snowstorm. That seems to be what most people complain about and that is the actions of the admins who run and administrate the server. They forget that the admins should be there to help the community members and teach them if they need to learn. Banning or kicking a player who does something wrong only because you can ban a person does not make you a good admin. On a rp server the ban should be your last tool you use for those stubborn players who joined just to cause a disruption.
The reverse is true for dm/tdm servers as you should ban quickly those who get on there and call themselves skilled but then use health/weapon hacks to beat everyone. Not much skill involved if you have no chance of being killed.
As for admins, they should be required to have 2 accounts. One they use to actually play the game and another that they use just when they are onduty. The play account should not have any power whatsoever and you should also make sure that your admins do not use any hacks neither. I have been on several servers where admins use hacks but slam that ban button on others. Admins can get around a map and do what is needed without the need for hacks.
