All spectators spawn into game

Was just wondering why all Spectators spawn into game at map changes. Tonight for example there were 4 AFK and 2 players.. Annoying to me, but just wondered why server does that now and did not a month or so ago.
Thanks,

draiN

Sucks to be a spectator these days lol
But seriously drain, most if not all, what Executor said, in that other thread, is true.
Plus, we had noticed, in the past, that a few who did spectate, stayed there all day
long. There were some, I wont mention they're names, stayed there not saying a word,
nor played, the entire time they were there. I myself, did some research into why some
did that. It turns out, that if a player/s have their AutoDownload on, the person sitting
aimlessly on the server, could download a file or whatever to that player. This is, in
addition to, other factors, is why we changed the setting so that everyone joins at map
changes. I myself, keep an eye on that kind of behaviour, and at times, will change the
setting, so that you can't spectate, just so that everyone has a great time.
I hope this answers your question.
