Long time, first time.

except that most of them ARE idiots and fucking retards.

you:
-are too quick to ban, and extremely vocal about it
-fight w/ players and then threaten them w/ bans for "admin disrespect" when they speak up
-need to be told multiple times about rules, AND STILL decide to argue about them
-need to cool down.

1. I am not too quick to ban, actually. I give a warning to players first, and if they continue with the misconduct, I ban them for a half hour.

2. I fight with players? I don't fight with players. I simply tell them how it is. I tell them if they don't stop doing what they're doing (providing it is against the rules) that they are getting banned.

3. I wouldn't argue about the rules if they actually made more sense. And, I don't need to be "told" - I know the rules, I just don't agree with some of them. And I'm not the only one, either.

4. I need to cool down? Where are you getting the idea that I'm not chill? I just don't take shit from anybody. That doesn't mean I'm an angry person.

Also, allow me to reiterate. It doesn't justify his actions. Isn't disrespect towards players against the rules on some level? Calling somebody an idiot and a "fucking retard" through the mic isn't very "professional". Sure, I am guilty of it on occasion, but every time Mikey is in the room I hear him shouting and screaming AT SOMEBODY.

Please go re-read the rules you dont seem to have a full grasp on them yet. 30 min bans should NOT be the first punishment at ALL. Just because you dont agree with the rules does not justify not following them. Follow the rules and people will begin to warm up to you. like i said you are on day 2 of admin and already have a target over your head.

warn, kick, ban. that's how it's supposed to go.

you seem to get into verbal smackdowns with people, and when they begin to get the upper hand the "stop talking of i'm banning you for admin disrespect" comes out.

i personally don't agree w/ all the rules either. but, i enforce them. as they are. why? because i am not an admin to make up rules, i'm an admin to make sure everyone else follows them. the fact is, there is nothing to argue about. the rules are the rules. end of story. problems go on the forums, but until they get changed, you enforce and follow them as they are written.

you do need to cool down.

and yeah, mickey yells at people. but normally, they yell back. it's a game. he talks trash, people talk trash back to him, everyone laughs about it. very rarely will he actually say something to insult, and most all of those times they are completely deserving. mickey used to be a drunken prick. but for the past 2 months or so, he's been fine.

Oh I'm sorry I didn't realize sith had the authority to dictate how IBIS admins operate.

Hey bro, get with me in PMs I want to know all the new rules you're working on so I can tell you how fucking stupid and undeserving you are of admin.

the way i see it, a lot of admins are undeserving of their status. and i'm not afraid to say that, either. don't get me wrong, i like them as players... but as admins, a lot of 'em are undeserving. to be honest, i'm canceling the subscription for next month because it feels like way too much of a chore to be admin. personally, i like just sitting back and playing a game with some music on and not have to worry about banning idiots in the server.

also, i might not have the authority to dictate how they operate, but i sure as hell have the right to disagree with something if i don't fully believe in the reasoning.

Didnt you get some of your powers removed? Weren't you doing the same thing?

No, you don't. Because this isn't a democracy. When you pay for the servers you can have a say in how things work. Until then, your opinion means absolutely dick and you will follow the rules set down by those who OWN the servers we play in (or find somewhere else to be a pretentious fuckhead).

Glad you're not going to stay an admin, though. Thanks.

[Sinister Sith]

Technically I do pay for the servers - where do you think the $11 a month goes? Also, if I don't believe in something, I am going to speak out against it. Doesn't mean I won't enforce it, but it doesn't mean that I believe in it. I reserve the right of freedom of speech as a human, and personally I couldn't give two fucks about what you or any other clan member/admin says about it.

My first gripe... PORN.

Apparently heterosexual porn is allowed, but gay porn is not? Last I checked, porn is porn regardless of the sexuality of the parties involved. Why is straight porn allowed but not gay porn? Last I checked, homosexuality is now pretty commonly accepted amongst society. Do I sense a hint of ignorance in this?

RACISM.

The word "niggers" is allowed to be said as long as it is not directed towards any specific party. Try saying that out in public and see how comfortable you feel, and see if you don't get a punch in the mouth by a nearby black person. It doesn't change the racist nature of the word. Again... another flaw with the rules. I could keep going on. That is just two of 'em that are flawed.

[Sinister Sith]

Well i know whats wrong with him... He's a queer nigger who has pent up sexual frustrations which he is taking out in the form of admin abuse.

You hit the nail right on the head. Damn you're good.

so you want to see gay sprays while you're playing?
