Banned for defending myself? Really??

[XX0wnsXY]

Well what am I supposed to do? I tried switching teams (he followed me as soon as he could), I tried to get an admin in but everyone on my list was offline that had that kind of power. I don't understand why I should be punished (for a week) when I was only trying to defend myself.

I cant review the demos right now, but i will say this. You admit that you retaliated against the TKer. That is not an excuse, ever. If everyone was offline, you dont have the right people on your list. Maynard is always on, along with a lot of other admins and clan. At the very least you could have come here and PMed someone..not an immediate solution, but given your ban history..id say you should think twice before breaking server rules.

Like i said...im posting mobile right now, so if someone wants to take action..go for it.

While it is my personal belief that if someone hits you then you have every right to hit back (eye for an eye and all), but obviously this belief is not shared by the admins and in the future I will conduct myself within the lines of the server and its rules. I appreciate your involvement in this and hope we can come to a speedy resolution. I do admit that sometimes I lose my temper (see the previous bans for teamkilling, though honestly the memories are quite fuzzy), I just want to stress how utterly infuriating it is to sit on my hands while nothing happens (not now, but then).

Also, that "admin" that was in earlier when the trouble started, was he even an admin? Or just someone faking tags?

also doesn't help that this is your 4'th TK ban.

don't change the fucking subject foxie. You don't worry about that and just deal with your situation. any post you make in reference to this subject will be deleted.

To be fair, wouldn't this be the third, since the one automatic one is more or less the current one? (albeit extended by a ton)

and inthebutt, I wasn't trying to change the subject, was only curious.

[maynard]

I'm sure he banned you for a reason. and you've not provided any proof, so no... it's the 4'th TK ban till proven otherwise.

I found the two maps I was talking about:

File:auto-20120712-072145-shotgun_adsl.dem 6265 KB 7/12/2012 7:45:00 AM

File:auto-20120712-074531-gg_isolated_fightyard.dem 7254 KB 7/12/2012 8:18:00 AM

The first (between 74,000 ticks and 80,000 ticks) is when he starts to teamkill me at the very end of the map. The admin Meltdown.ibis did nothing to stop what was going on.

@Maynard

Actually, I have the proof right here, these are the two maps where I'm saying what happened actually happened. I don't know how to upload the files directly onto here but if you go to ftp://208.43.70.233/ and CTRL+F (or whatever the Mac version is) for the file names, you'll find both maps in question. And as I stated above, it starts somewhere between 75,000 and 80,000 ticks. (I had trouble with the navigation thing in the recording playback.)

And I don't want to argue, but I'm not making up any fairy tales about lying about NOT team-killing him, because that totally happened, the issue that I'm stating is that I did it in self-defense (which as you guys have stated in this thread, was the wrong thing to do and I can certainly learn from my mistake here) from someone that was continuing to team-kill/lower my health significantly at spawn. And I was only musing that since the automatic one and the current one are for the same event, it seems more appropriate to combine them into one ban.

Here's the demos that foxie failed to post up



EDIT: I think your both at fault here because yes he did start to tk you, but that doesn't give you the right to start tking him back. I have issued a day ban on the other guy because he was obviously just doing it to troll you foxie here the link to the ban http://www.ibisgaming.com/sourcebans...steamid&Submit, but as for your punishment Honestly have should be getting a 3-5 day ban so I can understand why brett issued a week ban. It would be up to either brett, an ula, or a clan to decide on how long your ban should be.
