[NA] Canary_of_Chaos (old)

[Canary]

Complaint:

  Someone was teamwounding in spawn and canary used admin chat to tell people to stop swinging in spawn. I then proceeded to make a joke about how I cant read bright pink chat(Which I do, I usually gotta hit L to see it unless its night on the map or theres a dark enough texture to background it against), and said something along the lines of "I cant read bright pink chat, I think it said swing in spawn."

  A bad joke, I know, but theres tons of that anyways. I was prompty muted by canary, in which I didnt really care except when the mute lasted for roughly an hour, give or take a few minutes. When I was finally unmuted 3-4 maps later, after asking in adminchat if I was to ever be unmuted, I made a comment about how enjoyable long mutes for a silly comment is fun, which I was then told by canary to "go cry about it."

00:31:31 - [ADMIN][Canary_of_Chaos] PLEASE do not swing in spawn.
 00:31:41 - [Lord_Lurk] I cant read pink text
 00:31:46 - [Lord_Lurk] to me that said swing in spawn
 00:31:47 - [Lord_Lurk] k
 00:31:57 - Canary_of_Chaos muted player Lord_Lurk. 

01:28:27 - [PLAYER2ADMIN][Lord_Lurk] so am I ever going to get unmuted?

 01:28:41 - Canary_of_Chaos unmuted player Lord_Lurk.   
 01:28:45 - [Lord_Lurk] mm
 01:28:49 - [Lord_Lurk] hour long mute
 01:28:51 - [Lord_Lurk] enjoyable
 01:28:57 - [Canary_of_Chaos] cry about it

By gum, he's telling the truth!

Like people said, I'd been drinking. I guess this is a potent reminder not to drink-and-punish, as bad things can happen. Usually I mean to unmute people as soon as a map switch occurs, but I must have forgotten about you, in which case you having reminded me was a good thing. You did deserve being muted, but certainly not for that long.

I guess I meant to say what I did after unmuting you in jest, but I didn't realize that you wouldn't be in on the joke. "cry about it" is a bit of sarcasm that floats around the teamspeak I frequent, I must have assumed you'd have heard that before and wouldn't take too serious of offense to it. I mean, you yourself were flaunting your own skill in sarcasm, which was why you were muted in the first place.

I am sorry for making you feel bad, I really don't mean to be a rude person.

WHY ARE CANARIES SO FRAGILE

[Rikthor]

Only one clan has the distinction of being mass banned. :smug:

Canary is good folk though.

You're forgetting RS's ninja turtle holocaust! Okay, maybe it wasn't a literal mass-ban, but it was pert-near everybody at the time. (myself being gone due to computer issues, thank goodness)

RIP ninja turtles. RIP.

It was a mass ban on almost everyone, yeah. I think I was the only one that didn't get banned since I was in EU at that point.

That was awful. Having to talk to Garguro the Mad, he started off cool, but subsequently started stressing himself out.

[Rusty_Shacklefjord]

This immature child has banned me before (a perma-ban, even!) for civilly disagreeing with him and bruising his delicate little ego.

Just now he's muted me again for the same reason, and continues to threaten me with bans for no reason in particular. I can't even respond, thanks to the mute.

Someone really needs to remove this petty idiot from a position of authority.

[Canary]

You didn't seem to have any trouble calling me a bundle of sticks in i-chat.

[Rusty_Shacklefjord]

Sorry - I would've thought of something a little more verbose, except that I was too busy trying not to be branded as a 'leecher.'

Also, I've just been banned for idling in spectator mode. This is absolutely ridiculous.

Edit: It's a global ban, folks! And probably permanent, too!

I even went so far as to say 'please' before resorting to the sort of crude exhortations mentioned above.

I can't begin to imagine the response if I'd actually broken a rule.

[Canary]

You were banned for idling behind a tree you were hiding behind. You should be surprised to know that it is not a permban, considering your ban history.

[Rusty_Shacklefjord]

Oh, cool. It's nice to know that all it takes to get perma-banned is for some asshole admin to notice you standing near a tree for a few seconds.

(^ OBVIOUS SARCASM)

My "ban history" is nothing but a farcical result of the same sort of tragic misunderstandings as this, and should not be given credence under any circumstances.

So first you were "banned while in spec". He tells you that you were banned for hiding behind a three. Then you start talking about how you can't hide behind a three without being banned. I'm confused. Did you forget where you were when you got banned or did you not known where you were?

[Malaclypse]

It was more than "a few seconds". Long enough for the rest of your team to die, anyway. And for our teammates to eventually find you and kill you with no resistance. But it was probably just some kind of misunderstanding like the 6 hour ban Voso gave you in siege today.

[Vibe]

Clearly he had more than 2 ears to scratch

[Rusty_Shacklefjord]

Something important IRL suddenly pulled me away and I was forced to go afk. I (apparently mistakenly) thought that I was dead & spectating when I left, so I didn't bother hurrying back.

It should be pretty obvious if someone is not moving or responding to pinktext that they're afk. This doesn't necessarily mean that they're trying to leech or exploit the system - just that there was something else that demanded their attention. In which case, clearly a simple kick or QML would be sufficient to end the round and get everyone else back into the action.
