AlterityVIII

[CrazyCracka420]

1. Hospitaller_Huseby_420
2. AlterityVIII
3. NA 1 yesterday (3/19) evening around 7:30pm CST
4. Doesn't move from spawn, definition of leeching (would turn slowly around in circles, but was the last person alive, AFK at spawn)
5. To gain xp and gold without actually playing?
6. Don't have any...San kicked the person last night when this happened but it's obviously an ongoing problem with this player.  People have been perma banned for constantly leeching, this person got off a 6 hour ban and then goes right back to doing the same thing.  Obviously it's a leeching account.
7. Everyone in the server at 7:30pm CST last night would have witnessed it...San can confirm this happened as he kicked him.  I didn't realize until looking at forums today that this is an ongoing issue with this player. (Hence the reason for this ban thread)

I was not here for this exact incident but AlterityVIII has been leeching daily, can't believe you guys haven't banned her for a week or more.

San said he only has one ban this year on record....I'm guessing this person goes afk/leeches quite a bit and is getting lucky with only getting kicked, so the bans aren't piling up (making it more severe in each case).

Again, I can vouch this person leeches like hell.

[HardRice]

Leeches every game.

Permban is only solution.

Looks like Artyem banned him just last night for six hours. He's only had one ban this year, but he's had a few more in the past years.
Seeing as this seems to be happening so frequently, post back in this thread with screenshots if you see him leeching at all today or tomorrow.
I'll watch for it as well. We can take action from there.

From what I could tell, he banned him two nights ago for 6 hours, not last night (and that last night was a repeat of the previous night's offenses).  If I'm wrong, then I apologize.  If I notice leeching I'll post a screenshot, but if I can get on for 15-30 minutes a night I'm lucky (I usually can't play at all).  So I doubt I'll be the internet sleuth you're looking for.

I bet if each of his bans was team wounding he would be perma banned by now. As far as leeching goes, I find it way more annoying then being team wounded. In the case of team wounding only a couple people are affected. When people start leeching it affects the entire server and considering QML is broken then leechers should be dealt with more severely.

Long story short 5 previous bans is too many for him to not learn a lesson so just get rid of him for a loooong time.

He was on last night at about 5 AM, to be fair there was only me and one or two other people on NA_1 but we were actually fighting. Alterity would simply spawn and sit afk every round.

After some discussion and consideration, it's been agreed that Alterity deserves a more extreme punishment and will be given a week long timeout.

If he wants any chance of reducing it, he'll have to write an unban thread explaining his actions.
