- Alex banned me
- On Tuesday 9/14/10 12:45pm EST
- In the Zombie Mod Server on ATX_Helicopter
- When Alex banned me, I was never kicked or given any warnings prior and the ban didn't give any time limit or reason for the ban. I'm a regular on the server with a great history. I pointed out some cade breakers prior to getting banned and also zteled as a human, so this IS the ONLY possible reason for my ban, which is not bannable under the rules for my specific situation. Even though I zteled, 3 players said I didn't do it. When the pressure is on that bound key is just too tempting sometimes.

"when the pressure is on that bound key is just too tempting sometimes"

meaning what, exactly?

"not bannable under the rules for my specific situation"

Well, if I get into the round and get excited and am about to die, I might just hit "i" to tele away from zombies. It's not a habit, but on the rare occasion I find myself wanting to do it.

For !ztele, under IV.1.A.b, IV/IV.1 is ONLY found in the rules under Punishment I: "Kicks should be given out to players to break the rules and disrupt the game. A verbal and admin say warring should be given out in advanced of a kick."

No where under that does it give an admin permission to ban me. At the worst a kick should have been given to me, but in the least, a warning. No where in the rules should I have possibly been given a ban, since I was not a repeat offender, was not warned, and was not kicked, so "short temp bans," "temp bans," or "perma bans" do not apply to me.

if you do it constantly its disrupting game play. which is bannable.

I do not !ztele constantly, I never said I did it constantly, or even on occasion, I never was warned, kicked, or banned for it before (in this round or ANY) and saying,

"Well, if I get into the round and get excited and am about to die, I might just hit "i" to tele away from zombies. It's not a habit, but on the rare occasion I find myself wanting to do it."

does not mean I do it constantly, just that I might want to on occansion. Nothing that has been said about my situation allows a ban, let alone a "short" one. Why am I still banned?

And btw, this whole thing is what I'm saying, no one has even confirmed that this is why I was banned. I'm just assuming that this incident would have to be, even though there is no rule that could possibly confirm banning someone for !zteleing once, without any prior kicks or warnings.

voice enable 0 does not give yout the excuse of " I didnt get any warning. "

you know admins use mics to communicate mostly. once is enough to serve a KICK. i do believe the ban was over the top if it was once or twice.

And even in that even we cant do anything until the banning admin makes a clear statement of what happened and how long the ban is for.

saying ztele and have it show up in the chat box is ok. of course i can freeze or warn. but using !ztele from the !zmenu options if far worse because it doesn't who in the chat box. to me that means you are experience in ztele and know ztele from zombies is illegal. however you can take advantage of it and not get caught by other admins because it doesn't show up in the chat box. thus not deserving a warning if you get caught.

this is the zmenu option I requested for Zero to remove

i've banned people for using that option and they keep doing it because they think i won't catch them again in which i have and give longer bans. DON'T DO IT AGAIN

Metastasis is a douchebag rankwhore.

I'm glad he got banned.

Thanks for coming on here and posting; I just didn't want a black mark on my record, encase that hinders someone from becoming an admin. For the record, my !ztele is said under team chat, just like my !scream, etc, etc are. I'm not aware of any options menu for chat/commands, so you don't need to repeat yourself about something that is not true for me. If there's something in that list that could help my game, let me know how to access it. Thanks for acknowledging me as a "so called regular." Payce.

Oh, and btw, I think "regulars" deserve grace, not instant bans, for future reference. I don't think it's fair/right/just/smart to ignore two steps in the rules before you BAN a REGULAR without prior warning, etc, especially one with a seemingly good standing. I'll stop arguing, but I don't see how anyone's proved my points wrong, especially since they line up perfectly under the rules, which all admins have to follow accordingly. I could have accidentally hit my bound !ztele button, but it wouldn't have mattered in this case...just saying.
