Yeah, I see the other thread, but bear with me.
I was just playing on your Highway Tampa server, and I was commanding, on the titan. I died cause come dude crashed a plane into me, and when looking to respawn, I noticed we had no one at one of the flags.
So I spawned there, hopped in a vehicle, and sat there commanding, ready to kill anyone who came by in a transport.
I wasn't "fighting", I wasn't roaming around doing nothing but dropping supply crates for my walker. I was commanding.
Admin tells me I have to be on titan. I pointed out that the rule is "no fighting", and that I am clearly not in any way breaking the spirit of the rule, which, I'm sure anyone will agree, is intended to stop commanders from hogging the commander position simply so they can spot enemies near them or whatever. It's to keep the commander as a team asset, which is how I was behaving.
So I get kicked.
I literally hadn't spent more than 20 seconds outside of the commander screen the entire game, but I got kicked because some dude feels the need to exert authority for no logical reason.
You should trust your admins enough to vest in them the ability to make decisions with some discretion. To set up a rule that is being followed simply because one interpretation of it was being violated (obviously it can be interpreted differently) is both silly and shows that you do not trust your admins enough to let them make nuanced decisions about abuse of the commander position.
Treat your admins, and the people who play on your server, as adults.
