Dear Fellow Admins

[DJ_MikeyRevile]

in the last few months i have noticed a train of events with newer admins in regards to bans due to admin disrespect. What i had been seeing reminded me of the way i used to be back in GG.

I wish only to give helpful advice to some of the newer admins based off of my past behaviors. Before you go banning said person for admin disrespect, take a step back and reflect on wheather or not you antagonized this person or if they are just being disrespectful because they can. In some of these cases, admins antagonize a player to get upset or pissed leading to "admin disrespect." If you (the admin) can acknowledge the fact that you may have induced any in-server flame, inform the player that admin disrespect will not be tolerated and give them a warning. This also includes you dropping the subject as well.

I'd hate to see the amount of abuse threads grow.

word. calm down bros, it's still just a game. the goal is to keep the server's full and to acquire decent regulars. counter-strike is losing players everyday!

i play on the IBIS servers because i generally don't have any problems with the people that play on them, but i have witnessed a couple people wearing the ibis.a tag being completely rude to people for no apparent reason. that tag should not be an excuse to be jerkish.

Or perhaps they have to learn to not to take things so personally. If a person calls you a name over the interwebs, I promise you, no one at your lunch table will know.

Indeed is a game, but we admins are the peace keeper, we are here to clean out those that wish to break the server rules, so in a sense, this is a little bit more than a game for us. And I blame the "patch" for CSS losing players.

If you are a regular on our servers and witnessed admin abuse, often or not, feel free to take demo and post it on these forums for Zero and clan members to review.

a lot of the new admins need to get the fuck of their high horses and stop being dicks. We old admins have seen and heard it all with the new ones. "omg this guy called me a dick" *BAM* banned.... fucking people need to learn to keep their hand off the ban button and on the mute or kick button... or take a page outta my book. Make their gaming experience very fucking frustrating until they rage quit... i get my laughs from that

New admins... you all suck when compared to us older more experienced admins.....

i have no problem with that at all, but that's not what this thread or my post is about.

I wouldn't go so far as to say we all suck. I've seen some veteran admins do some pretty dickish things simply because they are veteran admins.

Thats because we know whats best for the server. Obviously. These new admins coming in deserve a slap to the face and an ass kicking. They are new, so they should stfu and sit back and watch how WE OLDER ADMINS run things.

Being a new admin here, I'll throw in my 2 cents..

Been playing since before steam, so I've seen and heard just about every kind of put down, disrespect, joke, taunt or slam known to the gamer world. Have been admin on quite a few servers and have seen it all. If as an admin, I can't deal with some dumb kid calling me names, I shouldn't be an admin. I'm also not going to put myself in a situation that could lead to that. No randomly slapping players off bomb or slaying players just cause I feel like it. I hate when that's done to me elsewhere so..

I'm there to keep everyone else's experience fun. They can call my mom a fat heifer if they want, that shit don't bother me. Once they start impeding other's gameplay and/or good time, then we have a problem. Team flashing and wounding/injuring repeatedly, mic spam, yada yada. I consider myself more just a bouncer keeping the riff raff out of the club.
