Des means in your actual server, dude.

As for reading the entire thread, I don't have enough time; would you mind refreshing my mind?

It's got to a point where you have to say: Guys, I'm afk for a peepee and a bit of poopoo.
-Vhat meaner poopoo?
-It means putting excrements in a toilet.

Seriously wtf.

I know he did, and this question was asked by Own3r and answered by the [o-t] very distinctly. I don't reward the lazy, read, it'll do you some good.

I still abide by them, I don't think he's stupid for having them, but it's his way. Either way, it really, really has nothing to do with Finder being power hungry. I'd hold off on acusations like that unless you play there often and see that type of behavior first hand.
Well, I got a perm-ban on there, while trying to obey the rules. That might skew my view on the people there... but I'd say it's fair to make that sort of assumption, given the facts involved.

I'm not trying to hate on them...but a BS ban is still a BS ban.

I do, however, have fun on the O-T server(s) once in a while.

This does not surprise me at all, and I honestly believe you were doing your best to follow his rules, but I'm not surprised you (or anyone else trying to follow his rules) were banned anyway.

We're easy targets, well, I am at least.

I would understand having a discussion about o-t's server rules if it was 1) up for debate or 2) a new topic. Its a dead horse that has been beaten beyond recognition.

They decided to not have bunny hopping, swearing, etc on their server. It doesnt mean that they dont understand what bunny hopping is or that they have never heard a swear word. They decided as a group to play TFC without them. Its a private server that no one has any right to play on but those who pay for it.

I bunny hop all the time, so guess where Ive never played. I get to play the way I want to and they dont have deal with someone who doesnt follow their rules. Everyone's happy.

As for FF, scuzz has said numerous times that since it is a new game, they will not restrict b-hop at the start. I wouldnt hold my breath for a change in the swear filter though.

Ffs, I just made a comment about how pointless swear filters are; I never meant you to show me your stupid faq.
And yes, it pisses me off when you treat me like a child. You won't be more cool or mature by acting like that.
Your stupid faq did not clarify me the point of swear filters.

The point of the swear filter is pretty basic: they don't want people swearing on their servers.

Do you just not comprehend that, or are you going out of your way to look like some dick, rapidly kicking a long-since-dead horse?

Well, for our servers that answer is:

Why do you filter language in a violent video game?

However, to answer your remarks above and clarify for others in the future we've now added this:

Are you trying to justify all language filtering?

Right, now read my post's first line several times till you understand it.
-It's not related to [o-t], I'm not flaming.

By the way, your faq spells "I can't not swear in the server when I'm playing TFC, what do I do?"

It should be "I can't swear in the server when I'm playing TFC, what do I do?" or "I cannot swear in the server when I'm playing TFC, what do I do?", not both.

As has been stated a billion times before:

Servers don't ban swearing to keep people from being offended, they ban swearing to keep out juvenile idiots who can't follow someone elses rules.

It works really well.

You guys seem pretty much to hate those things, so your name is kinda ironic, isn't it?

Just please, if you get a FF server (I've read somewhere you're getting a new one), listen to this topic's title. This game is meant to have bunnyhop and all that stuff; it's lame to cap it. It's not a cheat, it's a game feature.
lol, not once anyone of us mentioned that we hate that stuff. Its bunnyhopping thats not allowed, plain and simple. Some of members do know how to bunnyhop, some don't. Its just a rule, don't do it. What kinda baffles me is how you manged to toss in the dislike towards concing, RJ, and strafe. do those much as you want there. Its OGABS that kinda frowns on that stuff. The only time you cant do that stuff on thier server is while you hold the flag. Its dumb i know.

Hmm, no, perhaps I'll reword it to say "I can not refrain from swearing in the server, what should I do?" That's the idea I was trying to get across, which is accurate.

Edit: I went with "I am mentally unable to refrain from swearing in the server when I'm playing TFC, what do I do?"
