Several days ago, got teamkilled (definetly not accidentally, outside combat, server having 10vs10 something, slashed about 5-8 times with scimitar, oh and taking my horse after slashing me. [was shooting and aiming stationarily when he started slashing]) by what seemed to be str admin (based on him later using that lovely pink text to write 'now i kick you.').
Next round i try to support teammates by walking slowly on my horse and trying to shoot enemy with my crossbow, turns into total unluck streak: lag, freezing, erradic melee movement and inaccuracy of weapon end 2 bolts in row dropping friendlies with headshot, (i apologize while in combat and tell them that im sorry, nothing much more to do at that point in addition to trying extra hard to win round).
While continuing to damage enemy i get kicked by different str admin, no message nothing just instant kick, on rejoin i ask was that for accidental teamkills or they not liking my build (based on other admin teamkilling me and informing most certainly me that he is going to kick me, even before me accidentally teamkilling anyone) i dont rub it in their face or taunt them i just politely ask this. And he answers to me that it was for nonaccidental teamkilling and that it was completely clear that it could not be inaccuracy or anything, when i happen to hit friendly instead of enemy (too bad but if i could pop headshots at that rate and accuracy, in current crpg there would be NO SINGLE ROUND my team WOULD NOT WIN becouse of me basicly dropping enemy every 7-10 seconds with headshot, while being able to chase and find them rapidly becouse of horse). So he informs me they do "first time kick then ban" routine in brief manner and we drop conversation and again concentrate on game at hand.
By it self i have no complaining about kicking admin if taken out of whole and examined without other things, its understandable that nonranged playin admin (or one that has earlier been so totally good in ranged that he cant play any ranged becouse of balance reasons and ends up thinking that everyone else should be atleast as good as he/she) can think that ranged is easy mode and guranteed headshot if one just wants (leaving wonder about why ranged users must in that case choose to miss most of time...) and kick for 2 accidental teamkills when they happen close to eachother. Matter was not rubbed in or there was no continued hate or anything from that admin, so im going to guess and say: better slightly too active admins than totally passive ones.
But kicking person for accidental teamkill right after your turn blind eye on clanmate that nonaccidentally teamkilled and threatens to kick people he does not just simply like for no reason (most likely build or just fact of not beeing melee/melee/melee/foot/foot/foot by class) (or just to rob his horse, please please ask for my horse rather that teamkill me if you want it mid. round.) , that is not way admining is done.
i can dig names from screenshots, cant remeber them accurately right now, but i have screenshots from that game showing them.
also about other things told in this thread, mapchanging has been somewhat common, havent really observed has it been str side loosing when it has happened, but it has sometimes (quite often...) happened after 3rd round or so into map, so possibility exists.
