Is my best guess, because I was just perm banned from the AEF hosted server without any warning whatsoever (besides "i have just banned song" from the admin, immediately after he/she entered the server), having broken no rules that I'm aware of.
I hit a guy with Q+M+L and he was pretty annoyed (he polled me many times afterwards, and began team hitting my horse with his mates), but there is a system in place to stop leech kicking from being abused. I found Flame_of_Udun/Naked_Flame leeching twice and both times I kicked him for it. It occurs that this may have prompted him to ask his friend to ban me from the only Oceanic server for ever.
Earlier today, the same admin team ordered a group off a roof while a ladder was up on the other side (and not accessable to them, but providing access to them) and later told a group to descend after their own clan mate had deliberately destroyed the ladder and while there were plenty of troops from both sides remaining on the ground. The admin team then insisted that people would be banned for using one of the routes on Otreum's Smuggler's cove map. I had been using that route (as the designer intended) prior to this announcement and I protested, because I don't think it's fair to the map maker to edit his map, in the editor or by decree, behind his back. I know that Otreum requested that the previous AU server take down his maps, because they had been edited without his permission. I advised the admin team to either contact Otreum or remove that one from their rotation if they objected to its normal use. I think that would be the only decent course of action, but maybe I was banned for this request.
On the subject of maps, the admins have bluntly refused to update their map cylce post-patch to remove the random plains etc. that now litter the rotation, some of these maps include sinking sand, most include trudging across mountains. There are rarely admins on to regulate this cycle and allowing map polls is against AEF policy.
After being informed of my ban, I asked for a reason, first in general chat, then in admin chat. There was no response.
I look forward to hearing a more reasonable explaination for my instant perma ban (which is contradictory to the rules stated on your server page) and if the admin team was monitoring the server on Naked Flame's monitor while he pleasured you (because certainly no admin was present in the server until the decision to ban me had been made), please tell me why his series of ill-justified polls went unpunished.
