Title: Another case of unjust usage of the big red ban button.
Post by: Murmillus_Prime on August 06, 2011, 01:17:05 am
I get tked intentionally, then I get attacked by the same person the following round because I started to attack a horse he whistled for in revenge for him intentionally tking me previous round, I let the server know I was intentionally tked and who by and what for, yet I get banned while defending myself to this same idiot who tked me intentionally previous round.

If the admin wasn't a noob admin then he's an arsehole because any admin worth his salt knows I don't go around tking intentionally and always apologise if I do so.

Ï was spectating the guy you griefed because someone complained about it in the round before.

Feel free to edit your post.

Nope I never threatened to TK him, I simply followed him, have any proof of otherwise? Gonna fabricate some? Oh jeez I should have known it was you, who else would be so careless and blunt in judgement as you?

Also for me participating in defending myself maybe, just a kick was necessary to end the hostilities, yet I re-connected to find myself being kicked with a ban message, seriously it was not needed, again more proof of your abuse of your powers nuffen.

You should kow by now that if something happens to you, nothing will be done because no one saw it, there are no screenshots, revenge is against the rules, etc. The moment you retaliate, you will be hung out to dry because THAT was seen by an admin.

Such situation already happened to me.
Most of the time this kind of guy just want to troll you without any good reason. So the only way to stop that (when there is no admin or when the admin is blind) is to troll better than him : Follow him the round after and tk him while he is fighting ennemies.
It works most of the times (on other words, the guy won't come back) and the admin can't realy say that that was done on purpose.
Or do like all those "good-thinking and very fair-play" poeple and let the guy troll you until a good admin come on the server ...

(sorry if i did some grammar mistakes)

Ehm, for the note:
1. This guy spammed the other guy with his sword over and over again, what the other guy could do is block, and try to swing a couple of times back. Murmillus_Prime was the guy on the offense who wanted to kill. This is not a case of "the revenger getting booted without the original offender goes free".
2. The other guy got the same ban.

2. The other guy got the same ban.

He did overhead swings to my face while I was slashing the courser he whistled for, he didn't spawn with it, so it's not like I was hurting his upkeep, in retaliation for 1/3 of my life being taken I wanted to get a hit in back, since he's got a shield it wasn't easy to get a hit back, so I hit his shield multiple times, after I managed to hit him he started hitting me again so it continued, he tked me the previous round and then takes chunks of my health for trying to kill a horse that wasn't even his as a mild form of revenge.

Funny how you only watch players you have a grudge against or don't like and ignore the disruptive activities of players unknown to yourself, I wish your admin was removed a long time ago in that vote that was held, most people wanted you to go and you magically stayed, what did you do, donate alot of money?

This is the second time you've taken action against me where another player was further in the wrong than myself and had actually initiated the disruptive behaviour via tking or team attacking me on purpose to begin with to where I get a little annoyed and take a mild form of revenge, I don't exactly TK back unless I'm being continuously attacked by the team-mate, where's your all seeing pro admin skills when the initial disruption is caused by these kinds of players? Non existent. You just watch the people you don't like, with your eyes fixed on them, hungry for them to step out of line so your salivating urges to ban people can be satisfied.

A kick was all that was needed, I wouldn't have continued hostilities, I've no idea how long you've banned me for, I just tried going on EU1 still banned, you're swatting flies with a sledge hammer, jerk.

Those who seek revenge are not just taking revenge on that one guy who probably just killed them by mistake but the whole team who are less likely to win the round because of it.
So, taking revenge is just as bad as teamkilling someone on purpose as it hurts the team just as much.


Killing a friendly horse is a very bad move as well and may very well lead to a loss instead of a win for the team.

Btw, I remember I teamkilled you by mistake once (and you knew it as it was obvious I was trying to save you). Still you instantly slashed my horse to death the round after which imo, is equal to a teamkill.
I respected you as a player until then and admired you for your skills. But since then I have no more respect for you man. A simply sorry would have been enough.

Animal abusers deserves no respect... gj nuffen.

So great job Nuffen.

No enemies were around, the last enemy who was around, was a samurai clad lancer who I killed, I then proceeded to kill the rouncy she rode and after doing so, immediately I'm killed by the said teamkiller, no enemies were around, it was also near the end of the round.

I've been accidently team killed many times, I've done nothing to the players who done so and even said no problem, discredit me if you wish, I don't exactly class you as someone I've ever had a problem with up until this post.

Suddenly killing an enemies horse, which was called by a team mate without a horse is suddenly something deemed bannable over an intentional teamkill, how screwed up can you get huh?

I believe the actions taken but nuffen to be nothing more but an elaboration on his desire to take action against people he personally holds grudges against, how can such a twisted judgement, ignoring an intentional teamkiller and banning someone for defending themself, be accepted on a server as prominent as EU1?

Remember riddaren I wasn't banned for killing a horse, and apparently you condone him team attacking me, in response for me attacking the called horse, you're condoning team attacking, is your judgement really rational?

No, it is mostly emotional and personal actually and I have already explained why but it seems you didn't take notice.
I'm a bit dissapointed you gave me a -1 instead of saying sorry.

- We had played for months together.
- We didn't knew each other personally but we surely knew each other as players as we are both good ones and play alot.
- When I finally get a personal first impression it is my horse being slashed to death at the start of the round followed by douchbagery comments just because I teamkilled you by mistake the previous round while you were getting ganbanged... that was very upsetting. I felt like I got treated like a noob you had never played with before. Wtf?!

Is that the way to treat someone you have played cRPG with for so long? No, it is the opposite obviously.

...

To everyone: Think twice before you act stupid or flame at someone or you might turn a possible friend into an enemy and that will do you no good.

Sorry, who are you? Why would I have a grudge against you?

Also, you ignored two warnings.

Clearly I didn't notice, I was too busy defending myself, blocking a shielder who tked me the previous round with intent, who started attacking me because I attempted to kill an enemy courser which he whistled for.

Some people suggested I make a kick poll but I'm not the kind of player who likes to interrupt game-play with a poll, and yes I could have waited till the end of the round but clearly I was a bit angry, and yes I should have been kicked, why not, despite defending myself, despite him getting free of your clutches after not only initiate the situation but attack me again, as I mentioned I would have taken the point and ceased hostilities, a straight off ban, and I had not even tk'ed him just seems irrational to me, and an example irresponsible admin power usage.

And Riddaren I apologise for that situation you keep on bringing up about me attacking your horse after you tked me. However reinforcing nuffens ban on me because of the actual situation, the context in which I was banned, shouldn't be affected by past rash actions I may have taken, and no I don't take such actions very often and yes there are many other players who do the same or do worse, I'm in the better half of that spectrum but hey make me out to be satan if you like, it won't matter in this situation, it's simply not relevant.

Ban was the right answer for this.

So tell me, if he whom had clear intention to team-kill me the previous round and did so, even when I notify everyone through game chat, no action is taken against him, not even a warn or a kick, yet because I attacked a horse not belonging to him, because I retaliated to him attacking me, that's right he attacks me first and nuffen is watching this yet he doesn't kick him until when, ah lets see when I retaliate and then he kicks me and bans me, I don't know if he did so to him too but I wouldn't expect him to have banned the other guy based on the knowledge of the situation I just provided in the above sentence. Nuffen allowed this to happen until he could incriminate me, and that's my reasoning for believing this is nothing but an example of his over eagerness to press the ban button with flawed biased judgement, even in situations where a simple kick is needed, the punishment not being proportionate to my negative activities.

Some of you support the ban, tell me if you've ever seen a real team-killer at action, then maybe rethink your harsh blunt judgement, I'm not the nicest person in the world but I don't ever go out of my way to be an arsehole.

This is irrelevant, because this was not what happened.
Anyway, this thread is pointless, it wont lead to anything. To get unbanned, you, AS EVERYONE ELSE, needs to post a post on:
http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/board,33.0.html
The admin who you have now harassed, namecalled and generally been a dick against, me, is the one who decide how long you will be banned. The guy who you where in a fight with has already done that and is unbanned in two days.

Ah, I see so ignore my previous statement where it's evident you admit to watching me yet you fail to recognise your inaction in dealing with his team killing and then team attacking of myself when apparently you were watching me, you tell me this, why didn't you kick him there and then? Not given me the chance to retaliate and not allowing the situation to get out of hand? Just because I have to manual block and he has a shield which he can hold continuously, in your eyes means I'm the aggressor? Lmao, tell you what next time I'll stand there and just let him tk me two rounds in a row, rather that, than a ban.

And no I don't want to go out of my way to attack anyone, even people as irresponsible with power as yourself, but yeah I'm only human and sometimes I get upset and angry.

More a case of revenge team attacking, to which ended up as a drawn out fight, he couldn't leave it drop after I managed to hit him back once, I had to defend myself from that point on. I never actually killed him.

So quick to come to an incorrect judgement, it's sad people such as yourselves are given these admin positions. Do a little self satisfied thread on how to help the peasants, insert tongue in arse with the admins and suddenly you become an admin!

For instance, call me biased but many people also agree kinngrimm would have made a good fair admin, yet he wasn't made one, yet we get people like you and nuffen rev, people who use their powers too easily without thinking first or assessing the situation properly or in a rational manner, but kinngrimm hasn't got his tongue so far up admins arses that it's coming out of their mouths, that's probably why some decent people are not chosen as admins over relatively decent people such as yourself but also often short-sighted and too quick to judge.

I have just reasons for taking such a stance, I'm not overtly attacking or insulting you as a person, only your judgement, you're not mature enough to take some criticism when it's deserved, and will now further my unjust punishment, reinforcing my stance.

My freedom to play the game/mod to which I enjoy so much I've donated towards has been snatched unfairly from me, how is that not a fair excuse to give criticism towards the perpetrator?

I regret to inform you that the rules are not open to much interpretation by Admins, even if they disagree with a rule they must enforce it.

For Nuffen,

"No offensive behavior anywhere
Remember that this is the internet. Don't be insulted if someone calls you an idiot
.

He team-killed me intentionally, I gave him no intended reason for doing so. He team attacked me and I defended myself the following round. I'm calling you an idiot, are admins exempt from the rules?

Thanks rev.

Also,

"Breaking a rule may net you a warning, mute, kick or ban at admin discretion depending on severity of rule broken and player history (yes, repeated offenders are treated more harshly). In minor offences you usually get a written warning first, in more severe cases you might get kicked or even banned immediately.

If you ever get kicked, consider that a serious warning - you are obviously doing something wrong. If you are unsure what it is, re-read these rules and/or ask the admin in question what the kick was for in a civilized manner. If you're a hot-headed type, perhaps take a few minutes to cool off before going back to shout at the admin. Same goes for all interaction with the admins, act properly and you will most likely be received better.

Voted bans last for 1 hour. These cannot be lifted by admins and are automatically removed after the time is passed.

Admin bans can be either temporary (1 hour) or "permanent". Permanent does not mean permanent in most cases, usually it's a day or two. If you are in a rush or think you have been unjustly banned, post in EU or NA unban sections (read the first post and follow the rules). Again, civilized behavior might do you some good, raging/lying just prolongs the duration of the punishment.

Admins are human too, so mistakes can happen. We are terribly sorry for not being perfect and are working on replacing all players and admins with computers for optimal performance."

Hadn't even team-killed him. Severe?
Had I been kicked, or received a serious warning? No.
Admins make mistakes, it's true, but do they take accountability for them? No.
I'm aware my non-polite manner in which I have portrayed my case will give cause for negative responses but in my defence this is the third time this has happened to me, twice by Nuffen.

Months ago Nuffen kicked me for verbally attacking another player, I was in-fact again in a position where I was responding to another players provocation, I was being trolled and Nuffen didn't take any action until I started to respond to the troll whom was targeting me, and took action against me without even trying to understand the situation.

You get random players who don't understand the game properly, they think it's ok to go around team-killing their buddies because their buddies killed a horse which belonged to an enemy which they wanted, then you get admins who don't notice or seem to care about the negative behaviour and activities of these players, when you get a victim of these players taking matters into their own hands, that doesn't equate to revenge tking, more or less nothing more than tailgating and destruction of an enemy horse, suddenly admins attention is focused on the victim and the victim gets punished, but not fairly, unjustly harshly, by an admin who'd rather press buttons than ask questions, which to me is an example of clear abuse of powers, if they're prepared to ban an individual who's been a victim of severe rule breaking enacted by their own team-mate, then at least try to nip the problem at the source and not judging purely on your personal bias towards an individual and your arrogant belief that your actions were justified without taking into account the victims side of the story.

Nuffen you immediately came to the conclusion that I was the aggressor, you immediately came to the conclusion that banning me was the right course of action, you'd decided my crimes were severe enough to warrant a ban that could become perminent, based on watching me slash my sword at him, despite the fact I was 1 hit from death, despite the fact I had not killed him, despite the fact, he purposely killed me the previous round and despite the fact I was eventually forced to defend myself. I don't judge you as a person, I don't care what you do in person but when you take actions which affect the freedoms of another player, maybe it would be considerate to think for a minute about what you're about to do, it's part of being a better person right? Oh wait, I'm so horrible I don't deserve to be treated fairly eh? So I'm being judged from bias not from the situation.

Didnt know you were a repeated offender, thanks for telling me. If you make a post on the ban/unban forum, Ill tell you the topic and lenght of your unban essay.

Repeated victim of your abuse. If I had gone around team-killing with intention, If I had been purposely coming to the server to do such a thing then yeah I can see why I'd be banned, I can't believe how you're ignoring the statements which I'm providing, you're treating me like a racist treats a black man, you're blinded by negative bias for me, oh so what because I'm not part of your clique and openly criticise it, I'm now subject to being treated without any fairness atall, what part about you only targeting me don't you understand? This post is just proof of my accusations of  your negative bias against me.

Being critical of your actions is not rule breaking, yet you treat me as if it's a valid excuse to prolong my punishment, a punishment I've repeatedly argued is unfair and unjust. You're truly quite narrow minded.

You're completely smug in your position of abuse, if this mod dies, you're part of the reason why.

Oh and rev, please if you're going to discredit me at least have a decent reason for doing so, please give me one, or are you upset that I'm actually correct in what I've been saying?

This may be hard for you to understand, but what happened to you happens to everyone who ignores warnings and deliberately team hits. They get hit with the ban hammer. You did not get singled out.

Hell, to make it obvious, if I see the same thing happen and give warnings and those are ignored, I will issue a short little ban too.

For a veteran of c-RPG there is no excuse for ignorance of this ancient stance on deliberate team hits.

In the rules a kick is considered a serious warning, when you're in the heat of battle, whether it's a team-mate trying to kill you or a zerg coming from the opposing team, are you while in the middle of the fury of battle able to remain completely focused on the chat corner of the screen? I'm sure most, like myself are not able to remain that focused on everything that's going on my screen, especially when a fast 1h'er is spamming me with overheads and swing feints and I'm trying to stop myself from being killed at the same time as trying to remove the person who's trying to kill me by striking back.

I'll say it again because you don't seem to understand.

I didn't team kill anyone.

A kick would have sufficed.

Banning is the worst punishment, it should in my opinion be reserved for the worst offences, since I had not actually team-killed, since I was defending myself, I can't see how my actions would be classed as a bad offence.

Tell me REV is it ok for people to team-kill when they want, and not even receive a kick? Tell me REV is it ok for that same person then to attack the same person they team-killed the previous round without being stopped by an admin, because the person they team-killed with intent tried killing a horse that didn't belong to them that they whistled for?

Tell me REV does killing free-roaming horses constitute a just reason for others to target you with team-hitting?

I've already accepted and even said so here that my actions were not that of best behaviour and I did deserve some form of punishment as I know all team-hitting is not allowed, but I'll say it again, team-hitting someone who attacked you first, who should have been kicked anyway, is not something which should be instantly judged as a severe offence, how can it be? Please elaborate this bland judgement where all shades of grey are given the death sentence.

Humans eh, we all have flaws, but ignorance of fact is one of our biggest flaws, usually driven by selfish motives, power, control, self-satisfaction, smug clique behaviour..

nuffen is known to be an easy trigger though. At least in this case a kick would have been enough. Also Murmillus you should know creating a thread about it when you broke the rules won't help you. I think everybody take revenge like that or make minor violations to the rules from time to time, probably because of RL stress, yet it's not a reason not to punish it when an admin is there.

People that don't like nuffen and don't get into trouble either don't complain about him.


Killing the horse your teammate was whistling for is a serious offense too. To see that you are admitting you did it yet don't feel ashamed is troubling. If you don't understand that taking revenge is breaking the rules, I can do nothing for you.

More than once I admitted my offences, none of which constitute a ban, rev made a point of trying to shut me up with the rules, yet the rules hardly have anything written that would immediately put me in the wrong without tarnishing the person whom caused the problems from the very start three fold, yet I get treated with the same severity as the individual who team-killed me and team-attacked me, yet I never killed anyone and I did not swing the first blow, how can I be treated worse when such facts have been repeated over and over again? Seriously this is a clear case of flawed logic.

The rules presented even partially back my argument up.

If this was real life , you'd have people who've killed burglars in self defence being given the death penalty without a trial, thank fuck it's just a game, hope no admins like nuffen are judges irl, or people's lives would really be unfairly fucked over.

Some day in your life, the tables will turn, roles will be reversed if not by someone you've wronged but just by someone who has the ability to wield and abuse powers to which you have no defence, and karma, if it exists will bite you in the arses.

This is a good point. But failing to punish the first offender doesn't mean the second one shouldn't be punished. What happened exactly to the player that TK'ed you in the first place ?

I'm also convinced a ban was clearly too much. But we need to keep the punishment open for interpretation as people that really want to troll are good at circumventing too clear rules. If you think nuffen is exagerating, I know you are not alone and I'm pretty sure you could build up a solid ban thread case against him and get many supporters.

I agree with you, I should have been punished. A serious warning should have been issued to me, not because I ignored the first verbal warnings but because I actually didn't see them, it's not as if I saw them and didn't give a toss, I literally did not see the warning text whatsoever, I was blocking hits, and giving some back, I was very close to death and trying to stop him getting that last killing blow on me when I got immediately kicked and banned in one go.

After he purposely team-killed me the first time, before the altercation which led to me being banned occurred, I notified chat I had been team-killed on purpose and why he did it, some players suggested I create a ban poll, but as it was the start of the next round I didn't want to disrupt game-play, so In my reasoning I sought to get some form of light petty revenge, not a direct eye for eye action, which I know puts me in a bad position, but remember I did not start hitting him out of the blue, I started attacking the horse he whistled for, he then hit me with an overhead to my face, to which I sought revenge in being able to hit him at least once back in retaliation, since he had a shield I unable to do so with one swing so I repeatedly swung at his shield until I delivered the hit, as I started to walk off he hit me back and so it continued to the point where I got banned.

Since I never actually killed him, and since I was initially acting in self-defence or petty revenge, which did not result in a death of a team-mate as a result of team-killing then I can't see the justification of the harshest form of punishment, nuffen is accusing me of ignoring warnings, but yet has failed to consider other scenarios, like my scenario for instance, when you're close to death and trying to block a 1h spammer with a 2h you have to focus on blocking, not the chat box that's in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Yes, if he was just defending himself, it would be too harsh with a ban.
He was not defending himself, he was revenging from the last round. He intentionally vent up to the guy and vent on attacking him for over a minute, with several warnings.
He understands himself that his action was too bad to defend, so he changes the "facts" to adjust em, and people like this is the main reason we, the admins, have to use loads of time to spectate the offenders, as they will make up stuff to make emself look innocent. Therefore, we have to spectate them to make sure they are actually doing the stuff we are gonna accuse em of.
Griefing, revenging a teamkill last round, call it whatever you want, this is not a minor offense.

Ps: he got 3 serious warnings, he ignored em and continued to attack his teammate.

pss: He admits attacking the other guy several times as a revenge, I dont even see what case hes trying to build here.

JEEZ NUFFEN LOOK AT SOME FACTS I DID NOT TEAM KILL HIM, HE HIT ME FIRST, how hard is THAT to understand? I DID NOT IGNORE WARNINGS I WAS NOT EVEN AWARE OF THEIR EXISTENCE I assume you can understand basic, if sometimes badly spelt English right?

Lastly, A KICK WOULD HAVE SUFFICED AND NONE OF THIS SHIT WOULD BE POLLUTING THIS FORUM and maybe players who don't choose to lick arse would have more respect for you as an individual.

If this is not a flaw in your intelligence then this Is a deliberate fabrication and exaggeration of facts, to which I flat out deny, more proof of my accusations of your judgement being clouded by your negative bias for some individuals within this community, how are you an admin?!

Why is it the more you post the more my words are proven? Why are some people here blindly unaware of this?

I know you have friends in this community nuffen, that's enough for most people to stick their nose in this business and support you to the ends of the earth but defending nuffens actions is not that of a personal of rational unbiased position and in return who's input to this argument should be considered less credible than initially intended by the poster, whom appears to be trying to form some sort of bandwagon against a player whom they've be-grudged over a period of time for thinking differently to themselves and they dislike and alienate simply for being different of thought, not for actual serious offences, or put simply, you guys don't like me, some of you have buttons to press, so you press them without a second thought or a forethought for that matter, and that's the actions of an irresponsible individual not able to be put in important positions and to be expected to be fair and in turn represent a threat to the community.

Evidently, you represent administration without restraint, without thought, without care, you push a negative view, you falsify the story to your own personal advantage rather than actually behave that of your age and that to which many people strive to be, a more mature adult, who when in the wrong apologises for their mistakes, who can actually step back and take a look at the bigger picture, who are able to see both sides of a story before casting judgement, simply put you display a lack of control or care and even hints of purpose targeting of individuals you do not like and have be-grudged, you will use and continue to do as long as you're allowed, to knock out every player you don't like when ever they step ever so slightly out of line.

Just because it suits you and not because it suits or remains within proportion to the offences committed.

I hope you get team-killed often, I hope that if you protest it, that you will be ignored, I hope then you will be driven to retaliate, and then I hope you're banned for an undesignated amount of time, by an admin who holds a grudge against you, I then hope you protest the admins decision and have the admins irc buddy crew come to the thread to discredit you with attacks on your character and person and completely disregarding the actual scenario and circumstances and contexts in which events happened, I hope all the while most people don't give a shit, and I hope you'll be left with a bitter taste in your mouth that abuse can go on like this which has been targeted by a quick to judge, shallow, narrow minded admin, who deals with situations based on his or hers own power and position, and on their relationship with who ever is being wronged or is committing offences, and can never play out their role beneficial to the wider community in the long run, due to snap judgements inaccurate in nature, irrational  in hindsight yet never apologised for, judgements which are taken out of context and additional punishments handed out because of protest of an unjust decision, actions in themselves are not written to be deemed punishable offences, yet nuffen suggests increasing my ban period because of my protesting of his decision, so if he's allowed to punish when no rules are broken it just proves my position again and again and again.

He watched me apparently, so why did he not kick the idiot who team-hit me first, before I had a chance to retaliate? Simple answer, already answered.

I'm a bit of a nobody in the social politics of this community, not much of a conformist, not much of an arse licker, so no I don't expect alot of support, but clearly when injustice is as clear as day, I find it hard to believe I need to spell it out over and over and over again, can anyone really absorb what's being said atall?

Heres my thoughts from a third party with no association with nuffen or Max... I had to post because I understand the injustice of being banned and the responsibility of banning (all those years of CSS dear me). Max presents his case with a rational, though heated, argument (who would not be indignant at a ban?). On the other hand, nuffen gives short replies seemingly without reconsidering the ban. Now that this situation has escalated, who would humble themself before the other? Yes Max broke a rule (I am speculating) but did nuffen give him a verbal warning and a kick for the minor first offense? Or did he ban right away? At face value, justice was dealt too harshly and too quick. Max is but human as is nuffen. Mistakes happen. Compromises should be made. I think a 2 day ban for Max should be sufficient enough. Any longer just because of some disrespect and I would say your judgement is clouded. I've always thought that server rules stating, "respect admins" was childish (are there server rules about that here?) Adminship is a responsibilty and honor, but it doesnt make you a step above everyone elses dignity. The rule should state, "Respect everyone."

I sincerly hope my post is considered.

I'd also like to add, if I had taken actions which deserved a ban, (like being kicked, coming back and tking the unpunished offender who started these issues/ continuing hostilities), then I can see why a ban would be needed, and I would have gladly and humbly dragged my ass to the unban request forum and made my case while apologising for my actions.

Clearly the only offence I've been banned for was team-wounding, which as I've stated more times than I should have had to, that it was in retaliation. I know even retaliation, even defending yourself against a team-mate by hitting them back is also breaking server rules, but I've never denied that, yet are such actions worth that of the highest punishment? How can they be? I never actually team-killed him, had nuffen let him continue, I'd have been tked two rounds in a row, I was that close to death at the point of being banned. Surely defensive action should be considered to lessen the severity of my offences, it's logical right? So how I'm banned immediately without a chance to give my case, after nuffen already had the opportunity to investigate the actions of the individual I made the server aware of at time of killing me intentionally, is beyond me. I thought punishments were based on severity of the offence not clouded judgement of the admin.

Murmillus_Prime, since you haven't caught on yet, nobody cares about your opinions on how much severity of an action constitutes a ban. As a lowly internet troll, I give you advice: It is a fucking video game about Internet Knights and this is a public forum about it. You are given a chance to redeem yourself by the use of the Unban forum but instead you continue to sperg about something that is actually very insignificant. Had you just made an unban thread, you would already be well on your way to being unbanned from said Internet Knights game.

The reason nobody is on your side is because every single one of your posts is a constant stream of tears with terrible quotes like, "He watched me apparently, so why did he not kick the idiot who team-hit me first, before I had a chance to retaliate?" How about instead of shifting blame for your actions onto other people, quit posting in this thread, and make a unban thread already? You posting in this thread will just make your chances of getting unbanned further and further removed from you. It is a crying shame that the admins haven't already locked this thread and put you out of your misery, because you have been beating a dead horse for four pages now.

More than once I've taken responsibility for my actions, your argument is hollow. I've been banned on every EU_ server for team-wounding in self defence, tell me how that is fair without complaining that I'm crying or whining or w/e you wish to call it.

Also, how you can take a position on saying a quote such as "He watched me apparently, so why did he not kick the idiot who team-hit me first, before I had a chance to retaliate?[/i]" and accuse me of shifting blame? I've taken accountability for my offences, and responsibility for them, and I'm simply saying, problems should be dealt with before they become a bigger problem, how is that a bad position to take?

Nip the issue in the source then it doesn't become a mess? Treat offences with a proportionate punishment, how are these rational positions so hard for you to accept?

I hope you get team-killed often,

I do.

Don't most of us?

But I don't team-attack in revenge.  There's no purpose.  Most tks are accidental, and even when not it's often not clear that they were intentional - maybe they clicked by accident, or didn't see my banner, or whatever.  And even if it is intentional.. what good does attacking back do? 

Team-attacking trolls usually want you to attack them back.  You're just taking the bait.  I don't think any intentional TWers out there think "Oh goodness, people are fighting back?  I'd better stop, lest I be hurt!"

When I'm pretty sure it's intentional, I use 'i' to report it to admins.  If none seem to be on, I note it in general chat - 'So-and-so, stop teamwounding'.  If someone is intentionally TWing, usually I'm not the only victim; so when you call them out on it, other people realize it's intentional as well and you can usually get a successful kick/ban poll going if they continue.

Hey, look.. all smuggery aside, I understand how frustrating it can be.  It's possible that on occasion, in the heat of the moment, I may have whacked back at someone who TWed me.   But it's against the rules.  And it should be.  You need to accept that; if revenge-attacking were allowed, there would just be an insane amount of team-attacking, and it's already bad enough.  One guy would truly accidentally hit another, who would mistakenly think it intentional and attack back - and then the first person would feel entitled to (this time intentionally) attack again in response.  Admins simply wouldn't be able to sort out who actually started it, which means they wouldn't be able to stop it.  As is, the rule is no intentional TWing at all; and that's the way it has to be if the rule is to be enforceable.

Ignoring something means you're aware you're being talked to and choose not to listen, I've said more than once already Nuffen, I did not see your warnings I was too busy trying not to die.

Now please answer this without diverting or ignoring the point I'm trying to make here, you were watching me as you've said, then you must have seen him hit me first, if so then why did you not kick him then and there before the situation escalated?

Surely it would have saved me the trouble of being punished, being banned on ALL EU_ servers, saved me the bother of having to point out your flawed judgement in detail in effort to explain that the ban was unfair and an irrational choice of action therefore a mistake and having to justify everything I say to the community who has me down as a horrible whirling nutter with no self-control who goes around revenge team-killing all the time and commits offences in proportion with a punishment that's resulted in a mass ban on all the EU servers half of which I've hardly ever played on in my entire time in CRPG, one of which I'd require to play on to fight in strategus on EU servers

All this done because you took a rash, unfair biased decision, you're spreading mis-information on this thread to discredit me further which frankly I find sickening, that someone as devious and manipulative as yourself is given admin powers which affect the entire EU community, when and how you choose to use them is up to you, you're not confined to rules or mutual respect for fellow players, you're simply part of an IRC clique whom give you support to gain personal social political position within this community, which means this mod will most likely look very different in months to come, all of nuffen and his jolly friends enforcing rules they've made up on the spot, banning people for silly things and allowing their friends the freedom of trolling and douche-baggery to which they defend themselves with the powers granted to them by chadz.

This isn't the first game community I've seen fall into this position, and the result is, you end up driving away the old player base until there's only new players left, and since there are most likely less and less new players coming to this mod because of expansions like fire and sword, then the actions of people like nuffen will only damage the community in the long run, one day there may come to be only people like nuffen and their cliques playing, no new opponents, no old opponents whom were a challenge to fight, just a few people affiliated with small elitist cliques whom believe they deserve respect far more than they show anyone outside of their clique, you'd be playing strategus battles with 10 people aside, and wondering where it all went wrong.

He dealt with the situation as he seemed fair at the time. Both you and "the other guy" got banned for griefing. It is hardly his fault you failed to read the warnings, is there? It's not perfect justice, but he dealt with the issue at hand: Players griefing each other.

This is not "community breaking". This is simply ADMINING, keeping the PEACE on the servers, which frankly I'd like to see a lot more of.

Now, move on with your fucking life and stop whining.

I've been banned on every EU_ server for team-wounding in self defence, tell me how that is fair without complaining that I'm crying or whining or w/e you wish to call it.

It is fair because you were team-wounding. Let that sink into your thick skull before posting again.

Oh fair was it?

 So even though the rules state a serious warning is given in a form of a kick, one which I had not received, how can an admin justify using the maximum punishment when they hadn't even issued the lighter punishment in the first place? Remember I had not actually team-killed, that offence has not been committed by myself, but actually had been committed with intent by the person whom I had an altercation with.

Please if you're apart of nuffens arse leech crew stop posting irrational hate in here and try to be more empathetic, you're revealing yourselves to be nothing more than harsh horrible individuals whom are most likely associated with nuffen in one form or another.

Why would he team kill you on purpose unless you were being a general dickhead, even before you decided to attack him back?

Probably, his missed a swing, like we all do sometimes, and hit you at low health. Oops. Now you are dead, and he has a tk. Its honestly your own fault that you just didn't sit back and enjoy the free multi while dead, and instead decided to dick your team, the other guy, and yourself by team killing in revenge (which is most certainly on purpose).

I didn't want to come in here and be insulting... but Murmillius I think its pretty clear that you are either a fail-troll or a generally stupid. This can be seen from your whining and insulting threads, whining and insulting posts, and the awesome bar that was almost as low as Gorath. A better solution for this situation would be to shut up, and let the ban run its course. You are just making it worse for yourself.

From the standpoint of a non-admin, I have never had a problem with admins on EU or NA. As long as you don't dick about and make sure to apologize to people you may tk...they are really reasonable. Kicks, warnings, and bans are all given and for the most part deserved.

That is certainly the case in this situation. This thread has gone on long enough I think, the discussion is going nowhere and all it is creating is a chance for this guy to make himself look dumb.

LOCK THE THREAD

The round in which he team-killed me was towards the end of the round an enemy rider presented herself to me by trying to lance me, I subsequently killed her and then killed her horse about 2 seconds after, which when I did so the offender in question did an overhead slash to my back, ( I was rotating my camera looking for enemies) and no enemies were in close proximity.

You're judgement of my motives is incorrect, I wouldn't bother posting as much as I have, tried making points, as impossible as it can be sometimes on this forum with people like yourself who completely miss the point of anything which supports my argument and instead just want to see me incarcerated further, I did so because actions taken against me were unjust, the situation was not prevented when it could have been, harsh punishment has been cast on the victim, that being myself, not driven by fact, unbiased rational or fairness, just a desire to watch someone you don't like squirm and to try and get me to stoop to your levels of stupidity, well it's not going to work, I've made many a fair point, many points proven and backed up by the actions of the people involved and even what's written in the rules.

Trying to shut me up by alienating me won't work either, just stop being dicks please.

Your argument is shit. You are whining that you were banned for team-wounding somebody when team-wounding is completely against the rules. It doesn't matter what motive you had - it is against the rules. It is black and white - there is no gray. The sooner you accept this, the better off you are, but at this point I doubt you will ever be unbanned.

Also, how you can take a position on saying a quote such as "He watched me apparently, so why did he not kick the idiot who team-hit me first, before I had a chance to retaliate?[/i]" and accuse me of shifting blame? I've taken accountability for my offences, and responsibility for them, and I'm simply saying, problems should be dealt with before they become a bigger problem, how is that a bad position to take?

I love how you say you take responsibility for your actions yet continue to post gems like these: "the situation was not prevented when it could have been." Yeah, maybe you should take responsibility for your actions instead of wait for somebody else to clean up your mess? Situations should be dealt with, but the fact that you are shifting blame onto the admin for not preventing you from doing something against the rules, is very laughable.

Or how about deal with a situation where a player has notified the server of an intentional team-killer? Instead of only taking actions against players which you personally don't like.

I know it's against the rules but that didn't help the situation at the time, I was angry and I made a mistake, but as I've also already said a thousand fucking times, a kick would have cooled me down and I would have taken the hint and resumed normal game-play, nuffen accuses me of ignoring warnings when the final warning was never given, that being given in form of a kick, which would be necessary when the person who's being issued the verbal warnings is fighting for his life and is unable to read the chat and manual block with a 2h at once.

I'm speaking plain fucking English here, how twisted are the thought processes of some people here? Is it people like you who end up in government and end up fucking the country up or is it people like you who act like apes every weekend when they go drinking too much?

This may come as a massive shock to you but Game Admins Do This For Free and thus are not watching 24/7 and it can take a few minutes before we respond to a situation due to having alt-tabbed for something or dealing with another situation.
You are not by any stretch of the imagination the only player who has been banned for revenge team wounding. Read the archives and you find that countless people have been nailed on this. This is not discrimination, this is just you being silly and refusing to follow the rules which everyone has to follow.

Just relax, admit you broke the rule which apply to everyone, and then everything will get better.

I'm not lying REV I rarely ever lie, and especially not in these kinds of situations where I drag negative attention toward myself, I'm not a complete utter fool, nor a troll or a this or a that you all tend to call people who have a different perception on a situation that they were actually involved in.

Nuffen took no action against the fact he intentionally team-killed me, no warnings were issued, at this point we re-spawned and I started to follow him, about 10 seconds into the round after following him up a hill an enemy gets shot off a courser not far off in-front of us, he whistles for it. Now here's my mistake.

I then proceeded to hit the courser he called over as petty revenge in a moment of rage, but in doing so he hit me in the face with his sword and 1/3 of my life was taken from me, this further enraged me and I started trying to get at least one hit back at him, to which he raised his shield, I'm guessing this is the moment where nuffen rushes in to accuse me of being the aggressor and then insta-bans me without fair warning from all EU servers.

How the fuck is this situation fair and how the fuck have I lied?

You were warned multiple times. It is your responsibility to see the warnings whether you are fighting or not. An admin isn't going to be like, "Hey, hey, stop fighting so that you can see my warning!". That is just silly.

Nuffen did deal with the situation, he spectated the players involved and banned them when they both broke the rules. If you had only killed his horse and not raged out, probably only the other guy would have been banned, with you just getting a warning for killing the horse.

You also missed an important part of the rules that you yourself quoted earlier in this thread:

"Breaking a rule may net you a warning, mute, kick or ban at admin discretion depending on severity of rule broken"

It's up to the admin in question whether the rule you broke is sever enough to warrant a warning, kick or ban. Nowhere does it say that the admin has to warn, kick and then ban. Nuffen did nothing wrong, he banned 2 rule breakers. You say a kick would have been enough, but seeing how you handled this entire situation I just have to disagree with that. I think a ban to make you cool down and think twice before you go into berserk mode is exactly what you need.

You're now saying that you did actually watch him purposely team-kill me in the round previous to the one in which you banned me? Yet your version of events are a complete fabrication of reality as I killed an enemy, I was not aware of this guy who team-killed me up until the point he killed me, it was a deliberate action, I had a score of 13-1 and I ended up having 13-2 because of an intentional TK, there are few here who really know me, but they know that I'm not the kind of person you paint me out to be, my opinions and expressions may be controversial at times but it doesn't reflect recklessness in the game as you seem to suggest.

I wonder why you're resorting to distortion of the truth, by claiming that me defending myself in the second round, the round after which I had been team-killed with intention by a team-mate who I had not provoked in any shape or form nor had any intent on doing so as I wanted to rake up K/D ratio, is worse than intention team-killing, then intentional team-attacking the following round just because his team-mate being me hit a horse he whistled over.

My offence, attacking a horse, retaliation.

His offences, team-killing with intention, team-attacking in retaliation for me attacking a horse he whistled for.

It seems obvious to me you're just trying to incriminate me further than which I deserved, you lie to protect your position, yet you openly abuse it to the detriment of many players, the offences I've just listed were the only which you should pass judgement on, not just because you dislike me more than the other or because you couldn't be arse to be an admin when I informed everyone that I was team-killed by a player who did so with intent.

Yet you failed to act until you could find reason for myself to be kicked, but wait you didn't kick me, despite not committing a severe offence, despite not being known as an intentional team-killer before hand, despite failing to act on his intentional team-killing, initial team-attack the following round, you instead  banned  me, straight off the bat.

THIS is why I have attacked your judgement and criticised you, and is why I believe you dislike me for other reasons and have let them come to cloud your judgement in correctly assessing the severity of the offences committed, resulting in taking the freedoms to play of old and new members alike away from them, like a child snatching candy from a baby, only the child did it because it wanted all the candy, and the power you wield is the candy on which you must devour and gorge yourself on to retain a level of ego which you maintain at the detriment to other peoples views, and freedoms to express them.

You were so quick to start attacking him, there was no time to ban him before you started to grief.

One hit against a teammate is not a severe offence, and is usually stopped by a warning. You continued and slashed at him several times, this is a severe offence.

I knew none of you before this incident.

Ok, this might be the 10th time Im saying this, but because of complaints about him intentionally teamkilling, I was spectating him when I saw YOU griefing. So yes, I acted. What did you want me to do, trust you on your word and ban him right away?

I have no idea who you are. I dont remember ever talking to you before I warned you to stop teamwounding THREE TIMES.

Yes, lets sum it up:
Nuffen: you teamwounded, bam, you get the consequences..
Murmillus_Prime: I teamwounded intentionally. This is not why Im banned. Im banned because nuffen hates me and dont understand the rules and how to enforce them. Im also innocent!

Ok.

I kept on attacking him because he kept on attacking me, and I'll repeat again, I was one hit from dying when banned, had you of kicked me I would without a doubt come back and continue to play quietly and not letting the matter in which caused me to retaliate to continue to be acted on since I take a kick as a serious punishment, a ban should be reserved for those who show clear unprovoked intention in team-wounding and killing with no excuses for doing what they did other than because it's their goal to team-kill, since mine was to play but then had been interrupted by an intentional TK I was a bit angry and especially as after notifying the server of his actions he failed to even give me a word of apology, you failed to show any recognition to the accusations I had put across on server chat, yet show eager participation in a decision conceived by a snap judgement, a lack of consideration for the conditions for the actions taken out in the situation, a lack of consideration for actually asking the people involved what's happening or even a lack of restraint, giving out a ban straight away is not fair, under the conditions in which I was caught fighting with this individual who to add insult to injury after purposely team-killing me had the tenacity to then team-wound me for 1/3rd of my life the following round because I start hacking away at a courser he whistled for, in-front of your own very eyes.

Surely him team-attacking me the following round is enough to backup my claims that he purposely team-killed me with clear intent the previous round, how could you not sum things up in this manner? Judgement a bit cloudy? A bit tainted? Dislike me because I voted for you, lilith to have your admin removed when the first vote was created to remove an admins powers, and I let you know that I voted for wookie to remain an admin because I'd never seen him abuse his powers but I had seen you abuse yours and even once you had done so to me which I've already mentioned on this thread.

Wait, what?
You voted no on me? Well, heres a newsflash, the poll was anonymous!
And, you indirectly admits voting yes on you to revenge me kicking you once, which was an abuse of the poll.

What has that got to do with your ban exactly? You're really scraping the barrel, do you know that?

Clearly what ever reason I voted, it was because I believed the admin who abused the leased deserved to remain an admin and the one who did so the most to have their admin powers removed, was that not the reason for the basis of the poll, admin abuse?

If I were bearing a grudge I'd be scanning every thread where people have alerted the community to your abuse and I would bandwagon with them but I'm not and I haven't done so, yet your rash decisions and in-ability to recognise and take responsibility for your errors, possibly based on a pre-conceived view you hold against me which clouded your judgement to not stop you from being able to punish but to do so fairly, to do so when it's within proportion to the offences committed.

The powers of an admin consist more than that of the ban button, the human brain has the capacity to think, to weigh up situations and judge the severity of the circumstances, how can a team-hit in retaliation ever be considered an offence worthy of a lengthy ban on ALL EU numbered servers?

I've accepted that I've wronged, so I'm not bullshitting, narrowness won't make you right, telling me to shut up won't make nuffen right, it won't make my ban justified.

Popularity of a player or an admin, does not change facts, truths, and the context in which actions were taken both by the offender, the victim and the judge.

In short: posting here won't get you unbanned no matter what you type or what arguments you use. Post an unban request, forget what happened and continue playing. In my opinion Nuffen did his job properly even though a different solution could have been found but you escalated what would be a very short ban into this. The fact that you broke the rules won't change.

Look at all the cameltoe/drama this ban has caused... Without caring about the situation or either player in particular, I think it's fair to say a kick would've kept more folks' blood pressure lower...  :rolleyes:

However I also somewhat loathe the clique mentality of some elders/admins in this community so I acknowledge my bias.

And after all the "omg, you banned me for revenge-TKing, you abuze" and the "I did nothing, even if you was watching me leech for 15 min"-nominations you would think people started to realise that most of em are bullshit.
PS: this guy got 3 warnings before the ban.

Bans are punishments, like time in prison often is, but it's also a time for players to cool off and so be rehabilitated.  Because you blatantly and maliciously disregarded an admin's repeated requests to desist you were banned.  That action gave you ample time to cool off, consider the situation, and ask that, despite whether or not you feel the ban was justified, you may remain a part of the EU community because you still share its core values.  Instead you made a thread lambasting an admin, claimed you were righteous in your malice, admitted you broke rules, and further tried to justify your criminality by appealing to your own emotional temperament at the time.

Advice:  Take two days.  Two actual days.  Let this thread die.  Then go to the Unban area of the forum and write a sincere essay likening yourself to other players while making no mention, at all, of your personal opinions of the administrators.  Admit you're fallible, admit the rules exist to protect players from one another, and then never speak of it again.  If you post even once more in this thread you'll only further serve to isolate yourself from this community.

The choice is yours.  Don't fool yourself.

All i want to add in here, is that the judgement is up to the admin,
who´s spectating the situation. While a kick might have been enough,
no one of us knows, which parts of the situation were seen by nuffen.

I think the punishment for specific actions shouldn´t be varying too much.

Some actions should be punished with just a kick, some with a ban of a few hours,
etc...


Well, Murmillus seems to have a dispute with nuffen,
but that shouldn´t affect his punishment - just becouse nuffen is the admin...

@Murmillus
Please, make a unban request & just apologize for your rage... as u said - you are just human...

@nuffen

Please give us our clanmate back :)

I get tked intentionally, then I get attacked by the same person the following round because I started to attack a horse he whistled for in revenge for him intentionally tking me previous round, I let the server know I was intentionally tked and who by and what for, yet I get banned while defending myself to this same idiot who tked me intentionally previous round.

If the admin wasn't a noob admin then he's an arsehole because any admin worth his salt knows I don't go around tking intentionally and always apologise if I do so.

Makes sense.

end of story

Fallen dudes come in aid of their buddies from clan and IRC, the treatment of my case by the majority of responses in this thread have come from players whom are playing social politics within this community in order to get a better grasp on power and influence for self gratification, whom are slowly starting to achieve a result of alienating the few to speak up against their actions and of the injustice of the actions of their friends whom would in their positions help them retain and grow their political influence and power in this community.

A selfish motive driven by selfish people, whom ignore the faults of those who would support them in their current positions of responsibility, it's become apparent that Fallen have an issue with the fact I've called up Nuffens bad judgement and have come to this thread to support the views of one of their now prominent members that being fallen tears, you all have fun on IRC, gain some sort of clique there and then based on that mutual benefit each one receives from another, (Nuffens admin position may add relevance in adding a significant positive in the case of a fallen member gaining full admin control over EU servers and in return Nuffen get's to carelessly use admin powers with guaranteed support from at least one section of the community).

Enjoy being in a community, (that's to everyone not in your clique) because it's apparent their influence has grown somewhat as few have come here to challenge their blind pre-conceived opinions on this situation.

I don't care about any dumb "power and influence" in this dumb community. I even defended you when that Tears_of_Destiny person called you a liar. You got banned for breaking the rules. There is no standard that the admins have to adhere to when dealing with team-wounders. There is a very good channel to getting unbanned on this forum yet you keep beating a dead horse in this dumb thread. I am beginning to think that you are trolling because it is either that or you have no grasp of what a punishment is. When you drive on the freeway over the speed limit, get pulled over by a police officer and receive a ticket, do you complain to the officer that you should have been given a warning instead? No matter how much you whine and complain in this thread, you will not get your way. You are only showing us how thick you are.

Also, this thread is an entertaining read so keep on keeping on, sport!

If I were kicked this issue would not have been raised, I may have still been angry at being team-killed and then team-attacked by the same person but I would have taken the hint and become humble and withdrawn from the attention of the server to some extent until my anger had dissipated, however I was not given that chance which is why I consider the actions of Nuffen to be harsh and irrational.

Based on the above sentences, the responses I've received from people like yourselves I also consider your support biased, harsh and irrational.

Then I have to ask myself why?...

Explore more options come to new conclusions, why not? Nuffen even tried changing the story to better reflect his position in the events that took place leading up to the ban, the fact he did so reinforced my views that something beyond punishment for the sake of punishing an offence had gone on here, involving a clouded view of events and an irrational decision made without consideration, clear harsh over-use of the powers granted to admins, there is no rule saying and admin should ban immediately off every server when even the slightest of offences had been committed.

Without that "idiot" and his big red ban button the teamkiller who attacked you wouldn't be banned now.
