Pretty upset.

[P[o]ke]

So I joined the AC servers for a few friendly rounds of bang bang.

After about two rounds of losing,
I die towards the end of a round and say "What a betch, lol. jk." And Azreal never saw that, but then he died, the Rounds Restarted, and I said "At least we won the round. lol"

Azreal immediately said "you stfu you're an ass, shut up before I have to abuse my admin" (Something to that effect, but honestly, this just happened, and I'm not blowing things out of proportion.)

I figured he was just some guy who joined the server, thought he was hilarious and could claim to be an admin, and get away with it, and have fun, laugh, and act tough.

I said "Nice try, you're not even in AC, you don't have admin." And he kicked me. Upon rejoining, he of course, had to flex his muscles, since he just owned the stupid kid who dare challenge him.

I asked him how he got admin; donating? He tells me he's played their for 2 years. Then I told him that explains nothing. He then said he's pretty decent. That still didn't explain it. He gives me a third lame non-related reason, then explains he applied and was accepted.

I told him to Enjoy and Abuse his admin as much as possible, because after the game, I was going to post the logs/demo/console here. Of course, that was a bit of a bluff, since I forgot to start recording a demo, and I was much too lazy to get the console. [I'm tired, long night/day of band practice and such.]

Of course, he responds "Go ahead, I've been reported multiple times" And included a few more things that basically deliver the message "I'm untouchable, and you're dirt"

I figured AC members aren't usually like this, so why exactly is this being allowed?

This continued for a while, and explained how 3 weeks ago, he said "Way to stack teams my friend" and I said something to the affect of "Don't assume you're my friend" Because I don't exactly enjoy being patronized. I understand I was rude, but holding a grudge is pretty lame.

So after a bit, I continue to play, and he is continuously rude to me, and now all of the nobody players (not regular, people I don't know really.) start telling me to "suck a dick" And such, since Azreal is pitting everyone against me.

I finally say "Now, I know why I was so rude to you. You are quite an abrasive person." And then told him how I always click Auto-Assign, so that was an error with the game most likely. I never choose teams.

He threw a flash, and In italy, I was in the house, upstairs, and he was in the other little room area. I hid behind the radio/hostages, and the flash didn't even touch me, I turned around, he ran into the room, and strafed, sprayed and headshot him.

I immediately explain how I don't understand but I wasn't flashed AT ALL. I, at the time, found it quite odd. But he then accused me of hacking, and told me he was going to ban me, and I need to turn my hacks off.

Well, that's pretty much it. Azreal is the name of the person. I know this is a game, and I don't care about the GAME, but remember - there are real people playing it, you're interacting with other humans, and people seem to forget that.

Thanks for your time. - P[o]ke

I love hearing both sides.


Very interesting.

ackin.proboards36.com/index.cgi?board=serveradmin&action=display&thread=1178497079&page=1

That thread seems to explain things.

Can't we all just chill out and stop being so silly?

I hope someone else can pull the logs and put them here, and this issue can be resolved. In the mean time, I need to find someone who can take care of this.... (looks around to steal orange stars)

And shame on all of you for misbehaving when Amy chose to go home....

[ŞíŘ]

He can't see that thread, it's in an AC forum.

cake cake cake cake cake. everyone needs some nice cake.

OK so here is what was said in the invisible section of our fourms:

" it obviously doesnt matter
« Thread Started on Today at 6:17pm »
poke, from the server some of you may know him...

anyway he was an ass to me a few weeks back

and i told him not to be an ass this time because i would abuse admin on him

he asked me what happened i told him then he didnt apologize he antonized and it doesnt matter because i banned myself from the server im not going back unless people like him who say "doesnt matter to me if im banned, they will just unban me anyway" anyway have fun and enjoy i may hit the forums some time but most likely not"

So when Amy and or some other super admin comes back a decision will have to be made. Either you or church will be back and one of you will be banned. Or maybe goth will be banned. I dunno what will come out of this but, just that but. The time is now 8: 45 PM and the server time is 3:44. If your post was made at 6:24 pm that would make the server time 1:24, so post your time of event versus your time of post for us to search the server logs for proof of what went down.

[ŞíŘ]

I would pull logs but there are no game-generated logs for today. There are Mani logs which show Church's self-ban, but no Steam ones. Might need a map change for it to write the log files to disk. I dunno.

[The Fudge Dart]

When I find out who this ass is I will exercise alittle "Admin Abuse" myself your humble, but lovable Fudge Dart

[Jayne, The Hero of Canton]

Poke,

I'm sorry that you had such an "interactive" experience with one of our admins. If this was abuse (as indicated by the fact that Azreal apparently/admittedly threatened to abuse his admin), then we will look after it.

In encourage you to understand that this is not normal behavior for us. I think I remember seeing you around frequently, so I suspect you already know that. Please, don't let this discourage you from visiting our server again.

You did the right thing by posting here. We have a very high standard for our admins, and player feedback is essential.

It will get worked out.

Cheers,
-Jayne

[RaccoonsFury]

To think we let him stick around.

[Amy]

(1) Chill

(2) Chill.

(3) thank you sir for checking logs! I was AFK most the weekend, meaning I haven't touched a computer since Friday night..... *ZOMG, I didn't die!*

I need more time to sort through things. I told people thta I talked to that I would be sorting through them tonight, and I'm going to try.

"So after a bit, I continue to play, and he is continuously rude to me, and now all of the nobody players (not regular, people I don't know really.) start telling me to "suck a dick" And such, since Azreal is pitting everyone against me."

i would just like to say that i was in no way responsible for this comment~those are friends from a different game i said nothing to them telling them or prompting them to say anything

on another note, how did i get admin?? i played there forever im not that bad of a player i applied and was accepted i dont see how this is a non-related answer

i never once called him dirt, and i still stand by my reasoning that if you say my friend to some1 and they say dont assume im your friend they are purposely being an asshole i dont take shit from raccoon or fudge what make you think i would take it from you??

and i said ive been reported more times than you know thats right...(i dont remember saying go ahead but i may have)

a lot of this are slanted to sound pretty evil but i like the sound of it

"I told him to Enjoy and Abuse his admin as much as possible, because after the game, I was going to post the logs/demo/console here. Of course, that was a bit of a bluff, since I forgot to start recording a demo, and I was much too lazy to get the console. [I'm tired, long night/day of band practice and such.]"
ok this is disappointing i feel there is no reason for me to say anything how do you forget to do this right after telling me you are, i said everything truthfully *sigh*

for the record he did not receive a ban

also for the record the short bursts of text in admin chat (this is for SIR) were because i had to move to avoid being shot

the only thing that came of this is we had an arguement just like the last time i played with poke (he received A KICK NOT A BAN, A KICK) i received the same amount of verbal he did admin is not required for that and i banned myself for 30 mins and went to play a different game everyone that was in the server left because they were my friends from the game i went to play dont know why this is so difficult

"This continued for a while, and explained how 3 weeks ago, he said "Way to stack teams my friend" and I said something to the affect of "Don't assume you're my friend" Because I don't exactly enjoy being patronized. I understand I was rude, but holding a grudge is pretty lame."
this is the first time i had seen you since said event and when i complained about it instead of say sorry or i apologize i didnt even realize that you were upset. you replied with why dont you hold a grudge or whatever instead making it my fault instead of patching things up with 1 word i wouldve said np and we wouldve been fine

[B8]

Open and formal apology to Church.

I am sorry for the thread about your punishment. Upon review I see NO admin abuse even though you said you would abuse admin. A kick for abuse of admin by a player is warranted. The self ban is enough punishment for any supposed admin abuse, which never happened anyway. I do recall the team stacking thing by Poke and that was something that I overlooked at the time.

Therefore the thread that I started I now ask to be locked and archived.

Edit - all hail Jane the hero of Canton, uh AC.

[P[o]ke]

Gah, haven't been here in forever, I mean it's a dead topic,
And now that I look back at it in retrospect,
From what I can remember, I was probably pretty damn rude,
So my apologies to you Church.

I remember you telling me you were banning me, so when I got kicked,
I most likely didn't even read "KICKED BY ADMIN" I probably just OKed it and assumed it was a Ban.

Hopefully, we can put this behind us, because I love coming to the AC servers and having fun,
I never intend to be so rude,
But I'll gladly take whatever punishment I deserve for any incidents I ever may instigate.

Thanks to everyone for their time, concern, and effort.
