Reality check Umm pardon my ignorance, but I have followed this thread with vague interest for a few weeks, and have noticed a disconcerting trend among the complaints. While we all face the occasional mingebag who is a pain in the ass, recent 'contributors' to this thread appear to have taken whining to a new level. No doubt this thread was created with the best of intentions to provide a feedback mechanism to administrators to deal with the worst elements from the servers, but after personally witnessing the exaggerated events on public servers which usually lead to one of the usual suspects complaining in this forum, I believe there is room for a neutral voice. As an example of how low we have sunk, lets examine a recent complaint from the recently prolific wordsmith 'Chrisspitz' What exactly is this guy trying to say? He has a problem with germans? Annoying people is ok as long as you use the server more than 'Chrisspitz'? Germans speaking english? Killing people (obviously other than the author or we would still be reading the complaints) (maybe the german guy was fooling around with friends - who knows?) He then goes on to advise us that the guy is an "extremely active player" and permits the administrator to "keep him banned if you wish". I guess my point is that surely nobody wants to be left with a server full of professional whining pussies like this guy, "dark hero", or "chocolate thunder" to single out a few. You only need to watch the server chat for an hour or so before someone pops up proclaiming "I am friends with espeon", "I can get you banned", "I have a hotline of some kind to an administrator", "I have had xx people banned within hours" blah blah blah... May I suggest that closer investigation be carried out before applying bans etc. based on the testimony of a 10 year old with an axe to grind? If these people are encouraged they will only multiply...
anyone can make stuff up. but it is up to the users to provide definite proof. but we trust our users enough to not try and ban someone as revenge for something, but we do occasionally need proof. and if espeon has already seen it then he has enough evidence to ban. what are you anyway? a hypocrite? you come here telling us that other people are whining pussies when you are actually whining about how others are whining. and lastly, this is not up for conversation. this is a ban thread not a discuss how people whine thread.
I check all bans with the server logs and search before I decide to ban, so all permabans are deserved. Also, if someone wants to post about their ban and wants an unban, it's usually granted if I think they will really stop.
Wow. Where exactly did you get that I have a problem with Germans? My whole family is German. Im the only child of my family who isn't German due to the fact of Devorcing etc. I get to listen to people speak German EVERY single day. Why would I think its funny? Would I be laughing at my own family talking to each other after i've heard it every single day of my life including in the FaceWan server. Im sure if you actually reply you will make some stupid ass comment say then "Then why cant you speak German by now?" - I can speak some German - And I can understand some also. I was only recommending him to be unbanned because he plays on FaceWan alot.. And has for a long time, and he was probably mistaken for whatever he was doing due to the fact that I never see him killing. I had always seen him playing every time I was on the server. Besides, I made this comment because someone "thought" he was mass stacking something. The word thought does not guarantee anything. I cant wait to meet you in game. EDIT: And Wow. WTF Are You Doing As Smiffy Said Fucking 1 Post Fucking child predator GTFO
plz ban "Mc-Passaro..." STEAM_0:1:9739153 hes blocking bombing zephyr's props and firing props with thrusters all over the map umh and jim if ya read this I ban requested Dark Killer you werent there so shut up this is a great system if ya want to ban someone and if you get banned for no reason there is always the unban thread.
Just a quick reminder to Jim Post in the correct thread. I have an aurgument thread if your here to piss people off.
"NoobBaUeR" STEAM_0:0:19564575 he is blocking my ship with props and killing with laser mines or whatever the are called ive asked to stop but he just laughes that i cant do a thing about it
"xnfsmostwantedx" STEAM_0:0:11692332 He started killing me, dark_sniper121 and godlike because i caused him lag (so he said) All pings were under 150 and he was the only one complaining Then he started to call everyone names just because he is probably playing on a crappy connection or pc This guy really annoyed me i'd really like to see him get permabanned
Wow godlike is my cuzin, and every one on the server said u were lagging them, and i wasnt calling any one names, darkhero kept saying thats it im going to crash the server, and he did he 2 times, cuz of his big group welding. PLz unban me, this was not fair. Darkhero kept killing me he traped me inside his thing and shoot rockets. Then he kept gltiching my stuff.
umh WTF i never groupwelded anything (bombing zephyr groupwelded his plane and it didnt crash or lag) and the server crashed one time due to the copygun, i also didnt trap him and i never fired a rocket or killed anyone.(CHECK THE LOGS PLZ)This is bullshit because he really shouldnt be unbanned and godlike is his cousin ???He kept calling him retard and stuff. Those two cant stand each other they kept killing each other and stuff.And this isnt first time he got banned, he got permabanned on a other acount to i was there. Espeon wanted to ban him for 1 hour (for killing) but he left before he got the chance so then Espeon got pissed and perma banned him and now he playes on another acount and then he pulls this shit WTF. About the killing, dark_sniper121 killed him a couple of times maybe he thought it was me but anyway this guy really shouldnt be unbanned. Im gonna ask sniper,godlike and bombing zephyr to support me on this because hes making things up to get unbanned (for the second time)
is this really a subject to argue about? just let it go. its not your fault that this guy acted like a douche. so let it go and if this stuff happens again, report him (again) and he will be permabanned.
