i need to state something here.
Aleko is a close friend, and i like him a lot , so this should mean even more.
Aleko team stacks like a mother fucker, he will sit in spec for half the map if needs to, to join a specific team or avoid getting against people like me or tom and whatnot because we know his playing style and found how to counter it..
why is that even remotely connected here u ask?
well because i am willing to bet that the team aleko joined had SOME sort of advantage, whether its the map itself or the players, and this most likely the reason why aleko wouldnt switch sides and do nothing about the race whoring...
Aleko man, i love u and all but get you shit straight. Be a good player and dont be one of those admins, u know better. Currently all i see u use ur admin for is to guarantee urself on the winning team and change the maps to whatever you need, or fuck around with tom and others. I have yet to see you do admin work like banning hackers or dealing with situations such as THIS. you're an admin first, player second, remember that.
If you are playing with the ibis.a tag, you take the responsability of an admin, if you dont want to use admin commands, remove your tag that day and follow the rules as a reg player.
Crooked, there is NO rule that says that a vaga on T last map MUST join T next map, that rule does NOT exist and aleko didnt need to enforce it.
HOWEVER, the convention rule right now to handling map joining is the following and PLEASE respect it:
If 2 people have the same restricted race and join the same team, whoever joined the team FIRST has the privilege to KEEP IT ON THAT TEAM, whereas the other guy needs to join the following team... for fuck's sake do a "playerinfo" before joining teams... >_<
As for the admin, it is not his responsability to babysit the races if the players themselves chose wrong teams to begin with,
HOWEVER if a player ASKED the admin for "assistance" on switching them to the other team because they simply cant, and switching them would solve the issue, then for fucks sake admins, have a little common courtesy and help out the player... it takes 5 seconds ... literally.
Based on what brett discribed , there is no ABUSE per say because the admin did NOT use any admin commands or abuse his power on another player.
The LACK of using his admin privileges to help out is NOT abuse, but makes them a shitty admin, plain and simple.
Crooked needed aleko's help first demo to go other team, aleko u should have helped by courtesy... or someone ask another player to go spec for a sec to switch teams, to preserve races.
The second demo, crooked u could have gone to the other team...
Assuming crooked couldnt take the vagalion race, it IMPLIES BY ITSELF that aleko joined the team first, so its crooked's responsability to join the other team at that time.
That rule u wrote in chat does NOT exist.
tl;dr: no abuse, shitty behaviour from both, and following non-existant rules.
That is all.
