This is a ban appeal, not a admin abuse thread. He's trying to take the attention off of him and turn it on tic. (What I think)
Hi Mr_Rainbow. Thanks for your thoughts. I am not trying to "take the attention off of" myself as you maintain, just adding a bit of context to my ban. But thank you for the suggestion, I agree that ultimately it is not germane to this subforum; perhaps it will be better if I put my concerns about "TicTac"'s adminship in a separately created admin abuse thread in that subforum.
You were banned by me for a week. You have been warned in the previous to stop harassing the admins, and you failed to cease to, apparently. You had warnings in the past; you just chose to ignore them.
Edit: Also, you stated you have never been kicked or punished from the server; while it is quite the reverse.
Hi Death. Thanks for the prompt reply. I have never been warned in the past, to my knowledge, to stop "harassing the admins." I recall being labeled a "troll" about a week ago because I voted for a map TicTac considered to be a bad ZM map in a map vote, but other than that I honestly do not recall ever having been warned. If you think otherwise I would be very interested in hearing! I'm also not entirely sure how my two (two!) comments upon joining the server constitute "admin harassment". Perhaps I am unclear on the rules for ConjointGaming's ZM servers, but I do not feel that my comments fall within any definition of harassment.
As I conceded in my original post, I do agree that I was perhaps being abrasive but I hardly think it was grounds for an immediate ban without a warning, kick, etc. If you feel that I am not providing all of the context for the situation which may perhaps justify my ban, I would invite you now to provide any such context.
Hello sweetie, good to see you here.
Now let's break down your little post.
"Specifically, an admin named "Thorax" (aka "TicTac") is often on late at night doing things like slapping around random people (who are not afk or doing anything bad)"
Now, first off. The only person I slap is myself and even then, that's only when the server consists purely of admins and I do so to kill myself.
" kicking random users" I only kick for inappropriate sprays and long term AFK's. Though I'll assume this is a mistake as when I use the spray removal command the warning can only be seen by those being warned, not the entire server.
"harrassing users" Oh are you talking about when you and your "Sophisticated" friend started stating "U mad" because I had more than 5 hulks so I asked you to stop acting like an Ass?
"On more than one occasion when he is chosen as the zombie master he will spam a huge number of hulks (something generally looked down upon in the ZM community because of their overpoweredness in large numbers, to the point that it essentially breaks the map)"
Oh, so you mean that one time on Bastard when at 3AM I decided to use all my resources to hidden spawn an army of shamblers? I thought it was a pretty unique way to win the map as ZM
"and then swearing at anyone that dares accuse him of spamming." Well now that's just a lie.
Seeing as I call other people out when they're spamming.
Hi TicTac. Thanks for the prompt reply. As Mr_Rainbow has pointed out my specific grievances with you aren't entirely germane to this thread, so I think it may be better to have this conversation in the admin abuse subforum, or perhaps even in private correspondence. Let me know what you think, and have a nice day.
ALSO: Your steamid is not that, but a number, which can be found by typing 'status' in console when in a multiplayer server and finding your name.
to make it easier for you, your SteamID is STEAM_0:0:14656550
Hi Leetgrain. Thanks for the advice; I have edited my original post with my SteamID. Have a nice day.
Thanks,
Fratricide
