I find most intriguing the definition of leeching these days, specially when a server gets at max 20 players.
Since you have access to banhistories as an admin, it may be that some people are already known to be repeated rule breakers ( including "secret" alts ), thus get longer bans. Also you never know what is going on in I chat between admins ingame that may lead to a ban decision. Without this insight some bans may appear erratic.
Leeching is leeching, no matter how many players are on the server. A leeching player is a player that only increases the amount of bots, and does not contribute to killing them.
Salah_Huddin had a crystal clear record thus far. The only reason he was banned at all instead of simply being kicked was so that he couldn't instantly rejoin to continue leeching. You butt buddy Joan had quite a muddy record.
What are you talking about? Joan is a saint!
Bias is something everyone haves and it is incredibly(read impossible) to avoid. The best way I have come up with to avoid it is delegate to people without bias. I try to not take any actions against people in my clan/strat faction to avoid "being biased for letting them off too easy" and avoid banning my foes to avoid "badmin getting rid of enemies". However this just makes you an admin who doesn't do shit and annoys the other ones by asking them to handle it.
but there was a conflict over some other guy who seemed to have not been contributing at all prior to salah_huddin being banned.
In case of doubt, ban everything.That's what I do and I'm still around so i must be doing something right.
On top of that, we have log access, ban history, etc...things that we didn't have in the past.

Right, I forgot about that. Rostam_of_Mithrim had recently retired and was kinda just chilling as a level 1 peasant while we were up against the latter waves of DTV, and as a result had a KDR of 0-4 or something. A select few people were saying he was leeching and yet every time I looked he was active and jumping round inside the fence (where someone should be if they can't do much else to contribute). I was getting flack from good ole Rando since Rostam was "in my strat faction and I was going too easy one him." A) He's not in my strat faction, as if that matters, and B) he wasn't deserving of any punishment, in my eyes. That is when I told Rando to take up the issue with any other admins in the server to see if it was "my bias" or simply the fact that no rules were being broken that was the reason he hadn't be booted yet.
Schoi I'm starting to believe you are biased against admins? :rolleyes:
Those who can't do, criticize.
Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain - and most fools do.
Anyone can negatively criticize - it is the cheapest of all comment because it requires not a modicum of the effort that suggestion requires.
Quote time? Quote time.

What if players are biased against admins? Would explain why admins are biased against players. Now heres the big mindfuck question. Do biased players make biased admins?
Admins should be criticized for the things they do and the way they handle others.
I think there's a bit of a price that comes with authority, even if we are talking about something that's more akin to volunteering at the soup kitchen than CZAR OF CRPG.
But I also believe admins I like shouldn't be criticized because they're pretty good dudes. I pretty much only like pretty good dudes.
So can we all pack up this thread, lock it up, and get some Nashringa hate going on back at the feedback thread?
The funniest part is Rando complaining about a level 1 character leeching.

Already addressed that. He had been leeching for many rounds at max XP reward, plenty of levels to pick up a weapon and be useful. Fuck off if you're just going to disagree with me without even looking at the situation objectively, retard.
Also, Jona - great job throwing around irrelevant quotes to draw away attention from your shitty admining. This community gets what it pays for by allowing shit like this to slide.
"wahh stop being so negative!!! heres a quote 'if ur negative criticism UR DUM' hah gott'eem!!!! (+420 forum upvotes)"
Here's an idea: Stop giving players things to be negative about, and do your fucking job right. I tried real hard to think up something positive about the cRPG admins, but I can't come up with anything except for Nashringa - at least he pays for the ability to abuse his powers by working on the game in some technical way.
Regardless of all forum dickriders, ad hominems, and "dank memes", cRPG admins are definitely biased. Fine, be biased - it's only human. But have the guts to do your job properly anyways.
Fuck, let's just make you an admin, but then you would continue bitching about how you're the only righteous admin doing their job, and since you would be cRPG admin you would ultimately be biased.
This community gets what it pays for by allowing shit like this to slide.This is true.
Tell us more, wise fortune teller Sharpe.

You purposefully ignored my complaints about Rostam_of_Mithrim leeching, because he's a part of your alliance.
You successfully managed to tell me to "ask another admin" when I had no idea there was even another admin in the server, because the admins smurf far too fucking much.
1. He is in your strat faction, Wardens of the North. Don't give me some bullshit about how "durrr we split up ;^)" You're still closely allied, nothing has changed.
2. He was dicking around inside the fence doing absolutely nothing. After leeching over 4 rounds of max bonus from DTV, he could've easily grabbed a weapon and helped, but chose not to. Probably because he knew you wouldn't touch him.
I don't know why I bother continuing with this complaint, it's been proven time and time again that admins have absolutely no accountability for their actions in this mod. I don't feel like giving up, however.
I see no need to continue responding to you since you don't care to even read what I write. See this explanation:
Which came before this tirade:
It's almost like I'm psychic and had an answer for all your accusations before you even typed them up, or you're just a broken record repeating the same things over and over thinking that you've won some e-argument by continually getting the last word. Either way, it's clear that there is no further use explaining myself to an illiterate. If you can come up with something new, that isn't completely made up, then maybe I will bother to come back here and make another reply.
you wouldn't see the point if it stabbed you in the eye
