Okay let me get this straight, this is my first, ban, warning, yelled at, etc... I have ever received and I'm banned for 72 hours? (hmm) makes sense right? No. And Voester (nothing against you man) is banned for 24 when he is clearly visible in the screenies. (he's chaos initiate/member/recruit/what ever you want to call him, im ATS so i get 72 on first offense ever.) I never brought siege shields or anything, I never have bought those ever or even used them, I followed Jar around and proceeded to have fun. I was level 13 I believe if not lower, and I was 4-3. Now define delaying... well mainly, forcing the round to take longer than need be. I DID NOT do that. Anyways this shit happens all the time in game, I never heard of anyone ever getting a 72 hour ban for this, or even a ban at all.
Sincerely, A victim of abuse, Noodles.
EDIT: Also, I got team switched towards the end of the map, therefore no I was not on their team the entire time, but clearly you can see my banner above my head showing I was on the same team.

OK: hiding (e.g. in the hay) --------- WAIT WHAT!!??? NOOO WAY!!!11!
NOT OK: hiding when last man standing (i.e. delaying) --- understood, but; because you are the last guy, does not mean you cannot be cunning.
I was Never the last man standing.
Looked at the screens and it seems like they all had kills, so I would call that contributing somewhat. It seems more of a case of not contributing as much as other people think they should.
All the people in there have been playing CRPG for a long time, what's so bad about doing something besides hitting someone with a sword?
The game used to be a lot more fun before everyone started taking it so fucking seriously. I feel like this mod will eventually devolve into everyone having to stand in a line and take turns hitting each other.
The only fun that is allowed is OFFICIALLY SANCTIONED FUN. All other forms of fun will be banned.
EDIT: by the way Noodles, your picture frightens me.
I honestly expected you of most people to understand, spoon. There is a difference between calling something "officially sanctioned fun" and just being a non contributing dip shit. I can guarantee you right now that I could sit at the edge of a map at the end of each round, not contribute to my team at all, and rake in a kill or two before each round ended. We've all been playing enough to know how well each of these individuals is capable of doing in a round, and it was much better than this trollish display. So don't toss out that "they are getting some kills argument." As someone who has played this mod for quite some time(over a year now) I refuse to buy into that whole "they have been playing for a long time give them a break when they violate the rules, they are just bored" bullshit. Garbage like that kills communities and has no place here as far as i'm concerned. Just because you no longer have fun as a veteran player doesn't mean you get to violate rules and have fun at other players expense. Your're bored? Then go play a different game. Feel free to keep thinking this was some thought police maneuver, though.
And Voester (nothing against you man) is banned for 24 when he is clearly visible in the screenies. (he's chaos initiate/member/recruit/what ever you want to call him
It seems that the whole community is focused on getting multis and anything that happens anywhere that can potentially cause someone to lose a multi causes people to freak out.....
.....I think it just comes down to the question whether this mod is designed to farm multis or if it's a game where people can hit each other with swords, rocks, or fire catapults at each other every once in a while.
Okay fine, explain why I received a 72 hour ban for a first time offense, (you stated above that ATS has received warnings) I never have, so you right there are throwing me in with the lot, which is totally unacceptable. If anything all 3 of us should have received the same punishment. I'm in ONE screenshot and there is no proof what so ever that I was leeching or delaying, get your goddamn facts straight when you go on a who's dick is bigger admin rage. This is bullshit, and you know it. No rules were broken here.Noodles,
ALSO, Mala you said I am known for doing this with Jar... That is totally incorrect as this is the first time I have ever done that in my entire career in cRPG, I just recently became friends with Jar, as him and I disliked each other a few days ago.
Well, I feel the need to post here because this is just ridiculous. As far as I or anyone can tell, all the people involved have kills on the team. As Mala said, they were defending a part of the map and the rest of the team didn't feel like playing around. If you are going to ban these guys then shouldn't you ban the people that go 0-4 or 0-5 multiple rounds in a row? It seems to me that they are contributing far less to the team than a group of people defending a certain a spot and getting kills. If they are the last one's alive than so be it. Should you ban anyone who is the last alive who doesn't kill the entire enemy team? I believe that should also be classified as delaying and not helping the team because they didn't rush in and get killed. And as far as ATS being warned multiple times, you are implying that every ATS member was on at those times or checks the forums everyday. This is not true. The community was outraged when LLJK was singled out on the community servers (which I agree was totally fucked up and never should have happened) and now the same seems to be happening to ATS because of actions of a few members. As Noodles has said, this is his first offense and he received the same ban as Jar while Voester gets off with a 24 hour ban. If you are going to hand out fair punishments and act as though NA admins are tying to as fair as possible all parties involved should receive the same punishment or both first time offenders should have received 24 hour bans.
