Allow to hide top-voters which have not played before#1522

The only issue with this is on proxy setups where the offline player check may not be accurate on each backend server. You could disable allowunjoined to prevent invalid names from coming in. Could also add a required amount of votes to be on top voter as another solution. But this could work on single server setups, but may get confusing on proxy setups. |

Hey, and sorry for the late response! Thank you for telling me about The question now becomes how a player having joined is determined; if only via the player-cache instead of Plus, I somehow need to delete all of those unwanted entries from the database, without doing a full wipe, as to not loose scores of real players. Well, I'll try my best once I get to it and close the PR if it is solvable that way. |

You could try the purge options, although it would take a while for the non real players be end up being purged (90 days default) You can also limit the amount of voters on the vote top (default is 1000) |

Hey!
We've recently set up a hologram displaying the names of the top 10 voters per month and ran into the issue that even mistyped names show up on there, which is rather undesirable. This probably doesn't happen on large and active servers, as typo vote-counts are tiny in comparison and fall to the very bottom, but with smaller communities, these votes will show up sooner or later.
Since I'm not familiar with the code-base much, I chose a simple solution, namely to hide entries right before sorting the top-list if the flag is enabled and they have not joined the server before. To keep behaviour unchanged relative to prior builds, the flag is default-false.
Looking forward to feedback of any kind if applicable and would be happy if we can get a feature like this in.
