so you didnt get kicked? you didnt get banned? you didnt get muted?

but because you were corrected in public(wrong or not) you are now leaving what you consider to be the best server?


Im just trying to get the facts straight. You are a good player space, and I hope you change your mind.

dunno man.. never had any probs with you. i'd hate to see ya leave personally, just because of one person. i dont care who or who doesnt like it. also i might add theres only a few players i have the up most respect for, and you are one of them.

Speaking of out of control admins...I had one the other day yelling at me to not spam in spectator. This means the usage of "vsay_team" or "say_team" in spectator mode in which only the spectators can see. Now I can understand spamming of global vsay or say while in game being irritating (like people using global thanks in order to thank a teammate), but in spec theres like 3 people usually :/ So I asked the admin if it's because it lags the server. The admin replies that it can. So I tell them that "/hitsound" (something all the admins use) lags the server even more, they didn't say anything about that :(

Oh and another thing I noticed while playing at a peak time the other day. One of the admins was on allies along with like 4 other players just practicing the salute jump over the forward bunker. Now how is this fair to the other players that are trying to win an objective when their players are just screwing around on the beach? It really irritated me as I was trying to work with a team that wasn't there. It's funny that you guys fight for so many things to make the beach fun and safe for us, and then just go and screw it up like this. (I know you other admins don't do this, but I recognize you all as one entity since you all must be held to the same standard that we worship you by)

In my opinion YOOPER bans too many people. Somebody say:"xyz is tk'ing me", and he bans him for 999 seconds. He banned 5-7 guys in 1 minute last night (I think it was last night, maybe the night before), I don't think all of them deserved that. And he is one of the guys who doesn't play anymore, he is only specing and searching a reason to ban somebody, that's my opinion. :help:

I was the one who put you, Space, in spec, for fireing from/blocking the radio-room area. At least I assume it was you. The name of the person sniping there was TheOne Alien. Normally with regs I'll try to send them a /m message but if the server is busy and I'm over-whelmed with guys acting up, then I resort to cleaning everything up first and being nice second.

Don't fire through door-ways where your going to dump rounds into friendlies backs. The door leading to the cat-walk from the axis radio room is a high volume area. The main spawn is 2 seconds away. The guys come pouring out of there and suddenly have to contend with guys crouching all over the floor like mushrooms as they plaster shells through the doorway. As I said in an earlier post sniping from the table is fine as you arn't blocking and your rounds go above everyones heads.

Thanks globally... I think I'm guilty of that and have never figured out how to bind for team thanks only.

Yooper is doing a great job imho. I've never seen him act on something without good reason. Peak times around 5pm est we get a lot of guys that think the Beach is their personal tk, bleeding, blocking zone. Anyone who plays there at that time knows the admins are working like crazy to clean things up. Voodoo.... please desist in your dissing of the admins at the Beach. They're doing a great job dealing with guys ...well, guys like you who go on rampant tk sprees. Voicing an opinion is one thing. Slagging admins (and inapropriately) to further some personal agenda after being a complete tard yourself is ...well, disgraceful.

Keek.

Why did I know u would post something like that? -__- All admins are doing an awesome job and I'm the bad guy who tries to diss them. Maybe that's the reason why 13 people voted for: "Not at all. It's Chaos."

Multiple ips for one thing. 2ndly, most of the people trolling here have ruffled feathers--so the poll doesn't accurately represent fair statistics.

Admins aren't perfect, naturally. We have team-speak and a fairly good system for training/keeping track of what's going on. If, however, anyone feels that they've been unjustly dealt with, they can always forward their complaints to myself or Savant. Flaming in the forums, especially when a full knowledge of given events isn't clear, is undermining and inapropriate.

Everytime I write something negative about an admin, u or another admin call me a tard and say I couldn't judge about that, cause I don't know the full background and I shell stop dissing admins... So this thread can be closed, cause the admin is always right.

thnx edogg, ur a good player too..did my post bore you? lol.....cause you missed a few sentences. in my post it states that i am not leaving because of a few admonishments. in fact even if i were kicked for good reason a few times i would not leave beach 24/7. i'm leaving because i was basically insulted by being told i should go find another server when i said to the admin that he was making it hard to have any fun. that insult showed me that it was just a matter of time when i would be kicked because of a noob complaint.

on another note, i feel terrible about not playing with new friends and players that make this game a joy to play.

this game to me is only worth playing because there are players such as dthsminion that when u ask for ammo(btw, gives plaenty of ammo without having to be asked) as long as he's not in a fire fight will go from one corner of the map to the other to get you ammo, and because of players like vasiliy that after you kill 4 axis to clear the war room but lay dead on the war room floor will race to get there to revive you instead of standing around or hiding.

I can't mention all the players that demand respect for their ability to play as a team player and that seem share in my idea of what a good game is and how one is earned. and what can i say about players like bubba and raven that are kinda hard not ta like, good peeps.

these are players and players like that make ecg 24/7 fun. I like to have fun and i know it can't always be fun but one thing i do know is if i can't play without worrying that i will be kicked or admonished because of nooby, or just plain dumb complaints then i will not ever have fun. i don't think i need that big brother is watching you feeling. i think i play a clean enough game and only play for my team and i want my team to win so i always play 100%. because i play so hard i tend to demand more from my team and i tell them when they're doing bad and i praise them when they're doing good. what i find kinda neat is when i play good it's only because my team is good, i play like crap and get noobie stuck like a pig all the time when my team is weak : )

anyway, i just wanted to let some of you guys know(20+ of you so u know who u are, if you think ur one ur probably right) i don't take lightly leaving you and you weight heavily on my decision whether to leave or not but my dam pride wins when it feels abused or mistreated right or wrong.

when admins stop caring or stop taking somethings into consideration peeps like me will simply vanish.

Space alien... if I said find another server and if it means that much to you, I appologize. ;)

Bottom line is the admins are there to keep the place running smoothly... doesn't matter if you're a reg or not, we're all pretty much under the same set of rules.

Spacealien your a regular player of the server for a long time now, and how this axis spawn empties into RR only to have 1-2-or more milling around 'cause someone is cking to see if the coast is clear, or 'cause someone is sniping or crouched w/ a venom its a problem area just like the allied spawn.

you werent singled out. if you recall there were 2-3 players kicked for lingering after warnings and !putteam spec it really does get tiresome, also factor in team imbalance,with the weaker team being mostly nubs (you know the ones mostly at fault for not knowing how busy those doorways get at times) as a veteran player, by now you should know to avoid problem areas, and the bigger picture of game flow which we as admins do our best to provide.

sorry you feel picked on but a request was made many times to many players, just heed the warnings,its to everyones benefit
