Extracted Post: My Banned Account on [o-t]
Note: This post was moved out of another thread.
-------------------------------- Alright. Scuzzy, I understand how your plan is to keep your community enjoyable without the worry of troublemakers, but it's messed up that you look like you have no sympathy for those who've understand that they've made a mistake and would like a second chance. Hell, even I would like a second chance. Back in January I decided I was done FF for the day. Instead of simply leaving, I took another path and typed the n-word, not realizing that it does more than kicking you. And now I'm perma'd. [My steam ID is STEAM_0:1:11716758 if you want to check the logs.] I didn't direct it to anybody, and now I'm disappointed that I can only sit in the stands if the O-t server is the only server with players. It really upsets me every time when I get on Fortress Forever and find only O-t active. I have to turn right back around to find something else to occupy my time that I'm not in the mood for. I'm friendly in-game. You can ask people who know me. Even though I'm speaking their voice, I'm confident that I'm not one of those jackasses. Sure, I'm only one player, but with almost 250 bans...you got to realize the TF2 community is many, many times bigger, and the bans are barely twice as much as FF's. Some do deserve to be perma'd, but realize that the others need a second chance. You may have 20-30 new players every day, but what's important is: how many are going to stick around long enough, to give the FF community a chance to expand? Maybe 15% of the new players stick around for months, 5% stay for years for all we know. Not only that, but you're also going to have the ones that leave after time has gone by. It's no wonder that after 11 months of Fortress Forever's release, it doesn't look like the popularity in-game has increased. God, I lead off to another topic. That above paragraph is pretty much talking about Fortress Forever's popularity. It doesn't involve much about O-t's consequences, but your actions will impact over time. You're going to have those who quit because the O-t server is usually the only server occupied when they get on, even if those are the people who need a second chance. You must look at a group solid. I don't know if that made sense. Like... you look at a group as how it's labeled. A group of perma'd players looks like a group entirely made up of people who are guilty and shouldn't have a second chance. There's always something else in something. No matter what, a group of mean people always has at least one truly nice person. See what I'm saying? Yeah, my ban was my fault. But when you're banning players, it doesn't take much to realize that at most of them came to your sever for gaming and having fun, not trouble-making. There are people out there who are sorry and want a second chance but feel hopeless. Even I feel hopeless. I'm not saying that you should give every banned player more than two chances. Just one. Hell, ban them after that second if they screw up again. I'm saying you'll have a better community with players who've learned their lesson and are dedicating their time with it. It's not like you have a problem permabanning them a second time if they mess up again, do you? |

Seriously if you're banned on O-T all you gotta do is ask about it in a respectful way, people... it ain't hard.

Also, the number of bans is nowhere near 250. Add a zero to the end of that I think you might be close. |
This area is set up for a central location for players to come to and ask why,who,how come they were banned. This isn't a forum for a shit fest. It also serves as a place for server owners to get advice on admin mods, Problem players, server support in general. So please don't troll the threads for issues (personal vendettas) against servers.
If you have a issue with the server make a post specifically addressing the issue please. |

Actually, 3.3 needs to change. That's what this board is for, so that no longer applies.
He can be as rude, snarky, or idiotic as he pleases when making threads here - this board is meant to be self-moderating. If he wants to make himself look like an ass in front of FF's server operators and board members, he's welcome to do so. Just don't be surprised if no one cares. Quote:
Take me, for example. I don't like [O-T]'s rules, I don't entirely agree with maintaining year-old bans, blah, blah, blah... but I don't whine about it, I don't cry about it, and I sure as fuck don't become a total asshole and grief them at every opportunity as some sort of lame protest against them. It's their server, their rules, their community, and they can run it however the hell they want to. Try acting like an adult about the situation for a change. |
Ya I was referring to the posts that would have been made in the general section before you made this board for us.:)

ya Tsukasa went kind of nuts the last time this subject came up. He thought he could change my mind and make me against servers with rules, hes wrong.
See he just doesn't seem to like rules at all Hes also upset that posts on these forums were deleted that had to do with him being upset about servers with rules. He told me that when he "requested" you to remove "to drop the word filter, as the bans are cross-game (tfc, FF, hidden), and permanent." and you refused he then started to advise people "to evaluate for themselves whether they wanted to support a server with such draconian rules." I kept pointing out that he doesn't pay for the server and that OT and you can make what ever rules you want and that considering that there are 3+ million people that have steam at least then 2500 bans over many years over many games is not all that many. I also pointed out that you guys give lots of warnings before you ban someone and that even the automated stuff warn people. He said stuff like... "I don't want to play on his server. I just want others to be aware of it." which I then told him that the rules are flashed up on the screen when playing. He was mainly pissed off that when him and a friend were doing 1v1 on the OT server he still had to follow the rules. Course I think my favorite part of the argument was when he went with this analogy... Me and my girlfriend break up, I move to another state, I wouldn't expect the girls in the new state to "bitchslap" me because I broke up with my girlfriend. My reply was Quote:

This his last message to me... Quote:
And if he does, oh well, he shouldn't have requested me to send to others if he wanted them to remain private. |
