Keep in mind, as you said, most of the times people waste your time on purpose, not because those are genuine questions. Some sad individuals get off with that stuff, it fills their empty days somehow.

Thank you for the advice

I sure don't, one of my few rules is "No OOC Insulting", they just come and go, they usually /q just right after throwing oen of the worst insult and never come back. That is not a problem they are kicked/banned if they are geniunly a jackass ooc

I actually have a "Feedback" section in my /report, I am veyr open to criticism and I actually improved my server with a lot of them.

Because just like they will give you an attitude, they'll give it to everybody else as well, and that leads to drama, arguments over the forum and petty reports against each other for you to handle = more work for you, when you could be spending the time you need to deal with that report by doing something more important (improving your server & community). I wouldn't want to be part of a community with individuals like that to be honest, I want to be somewhere I can enjoy my time, with friendly people perhaps, but I certainly don't need to surround myself with toxic people.

The people that are time consuming are the one that tells me "tp to me", and stuff like that, that start talking nicely but ends up leaving insulting you when you dont give admin right. Its not just this one, its the fact that there is a large number and they all have the same tactic and story. As I said:

Don't give up and good luck from here on

Thank you, I will.
