So I've generated a logfile of all of 888's chats and mymaps on the dm server over the past 10 months. Granted his binds are a bit spammy. Could try a half-mute, perhaps. But he seems to have great taste in maps: campcity, rene24, ven_dm2, etc.

DM2 elevator campers? Rocket-jumping up behind them & fragging them while they are obliviously focused on the elevator shaft is one of my low-key favorite Q2 things.

Shoutbox isn't the place for rehashing this. Here's the thread about DM server spawn farthest from 2006/2007:
Might be interesting to code a hybrid spawn function that doesn't focus on "farthest" so much as avoiding the few most congested spawn points?

We'd tried spawn farthest many moons ago, but it seemed a net negative overall. At least for larger maps like q2dm4, where one tends to get spawned furthest from all the action.
In any case, we have a 1-second spawn protect shield, and it has been suggested if THAT isn't good enough, one might consider transitioning to Minesweeper or Candy Crush.
