Tremble before him and despair.
Compliments also welcome.
Should have been a perma ban not a 35 point warning.
I disapprove of you actions in the lovely 7am battle between Invicti and FCC.
The defenders retreated to a tower in the map which you all made and because the defenders refused to loose another ticket to bring a ladder you kicked the whole defending team in a pompous show of support for FCC.
The defenders were not delaying but trying to wait for 'reinforcements' to keep the enemy from taking the village and because Kesh didnt want to looose a ticket to get a man to bring a ladder you decide to kick every one! Absurd and bad admining IMO. Tasteless decision to interefere with a strategic strat battle on a very biased whim.
That is called team killing, and it is against the rules. It was impossible for us to reach you without breaking server rules, and that is unacceptable.
This is called using your fuckin brain,
step 1) pull cock out of your ass
step 2) go spectator
step 3) place ladder
step 4) kill the last defenders
goddamn that was hella hard.
If this is in reference to a certain strat battle from earlier tonight, I don't know whether to call you mad, or just a flat out retard. One side is not obligated to waste tickets and respawn with gear (which will also be wasted) simply because one team is a bunch of sour crybabies and decides to put themselves in an unreachable spot. Play the game the way it's meant to be played or don't play at all.Darkkarma, and again. attackers spawend with inappropriate equip, with no ladders and CS, is that the problem of defenders? Attackers must TK someone to bring a ladder. No, thats the breaking of rules, cause there shouldn't be TK and thats why defenders are guilty.

Pfff...
Nope. They are removed now. Only the ladders you bring (to a strat siege, ofc) and the siege towers you make are available.
When defenders go to an unreachable spot by any other way other than ladders when they have zero tickets and virtually zero chance of winning, then yes, it is breaking the system. Say whatever you want about it, siege ladders are meant to aid in taking castles and villages but they are not meant to be the sole means of entering a defended spot, which is why castles always always have already built in ways for attackers to get in. It is the same as breaking a ladder in regular battle after getting into an unreachable spot for the other team, I guess it's their fault and deserve to lose or draw a round for "not being prepared" right? Get real.
Well then that point is totally moot, thanks for pointing that out, as I wasn't aware that they had changed that. Still, attackers should not be penalized for not bringing siege equipment to a village battle once they've already taken the village and only have to deal with a few remaining survivors who have decided to hold up in an unreachable spot.Of course. I just wanted to point it out. Hate seeing wrong or outdated information go uncorrected xD

defenders that decided to delay (breaking a server rule)
So, I dont want to play devils advocate too much here... but when Fallen archers ran to the edges of the map for 10 minutes at the end of a strat battle and we called them out on delaying - we were told the delaying rule did not apply to Strategus battles.I'd think if the defenders still hold the castle then no, it shouldn't apply, and the attackers would have to retreat. Of course, that's up to an admin's discretion, and we all know how that's gone in the past ;)
The situation which took place this morning has its own problematic that I'm not arguing against. I just want to be clear on what the rule is concerning delaying.
If the attackers siege a castle and fail to bring enough ladders to kill off a dozen troops who survived the siege... do the defenders get called out on delaying because they're not jumping down from their castle walls to attack the enemy?

In my opinion, he went easy on you and gave countless warnings. He should have kicked everybody that stayed after the 8th warning.The ban menu is not really conducive to quick action, unfortunately.
While delaying is not permitted the attackers were sieging a castle no? In many games if the attackers take too much they have to retire cause they ate all food, losing moral, etcFrom what I read; it was a village not a castle and the defenders had been fighting normally until they had 0 tickets left. Some people on an unreachable roof, then destroyed the ladder up to it and then just sat there, waiting for the timer to end, which would make attackers lose. That's the issue.
I don't really see the point of kicking the defenders when they are just defending the castle, it should only apply to attackers that delay not vice verse.
REALLY ADMIN ARE GETTING TO BIG FOR THIER BRITCHES. How about attackers come back next day if they dont wanna spawn a ladder. Maybe some one attacks a Castle and since they forgot to spawn with ladders and dont wanna waste a ticket to bring a ladder u call ur local big headed Badmin and ask them to kick the whole enemy team so they can win because thier 'in' the right. Last I remember this was a game not a admins drama show where they can play god and kick entire team because they dont wanna sit there and watch thier favorite team have to bring a ladder. Admin abuse abuse abuse! No 1 here was sky walking, glitching etc they just found a spot to hide from attackers, and since attackers didnt wanna bring a ladder they ask thier stupid admin friend to kick the WHOLE enemy team. Fucking retarded. Absurd pompous admining! I demand reperations!I would issue a bullet-pointed retort, but I'm assuming from the frequent misspellings and the general tone that this is sarcasm. It is pretty hard to tell on the forums though, so let me know if I'm wrong. For the sake of other comments, though, I will issue bullet #2.

There is being a good sport and there is being cheated.
Oh, you were serious. Bullet points it is then.
- My britches are huge.
- Villages aren't castles. Though Maras may be a village. And by comparison, Istiniar a castle. However, that village was definitely a village, as evidenced by the great many villagers.
- There was no possibility of achieving anything but a waste of time from this strategy and you know it.
- I was planning on kicking and banning well before anyone started asking.
- Right, I'm biased towards TkoV and not DL. That makes sense. Everyone knows I hate DL. I mean, who thought basing a clan on a silly book was a good idea? Probably an awesome person who makes great decisions, that's who.
- Nobody accused anyone of sky walking or glitching. Delaying != glitching. You are still guilty of grand theft auto regardless of how many children you didn't stab.
- Even in the event that I was incorrect, and reparations were given, you wouldn't get them. You weren't a party to the battle. No reparations for you.
- I refuse to believe that this was actually necessary, and will continue to think of Hospitaller as not silly enough to really think that "hide in a hole they can't get to" was a good idea.
As for time isnt there a timer in there for defenders to hold out in the first place? Why all this talk of delaying?

Braeden is my one and only, don't you forget.Good is repaid with good, and loyalty with loyalty. At the dawn of the first age, you stood by me. Till the dusk of the world's demise I shall stand by you.
So, I don't always pay attention to the unban request board, and thus sometimes miss people's requests for unbans. Since traditionally it is considered rude to lift another admins ban, I figured I'd post this.
1. I tend to ban longer than most of you, apparently. I don't know what the standard ban times are for things and I don't particularly care, my intent is to make sure that whoever is banned is actually inconvenienced by the ban.
2. If someone posts, and it is clear that they are new, didn't understand, or are at least remorseful, feel free to lift my bans. Most of the reason I use long bans is because getting them to interact with us via the unban forum has proven to be more effective than simply having them wait out the timer, in my experience and opinion. I have no problem with a 3 day ban becoming 30 minutes if the person understands the reason they were banned and how to not cause that problem in the future.
3. If they are just complaining that it was abuse, or that I am biased, or that they weren't warned...just let me know, because I need a good laugh just like everyone else.
Thanks!
