Oh and another thing - in the past a lot of people managed to get the admin pass as a member of GT leaked it - their admin rights were taken away and the password was changed AFTER we knew about it.
However, I know this will not cover all cases of injust kicking/gibbing, but a lot of the cases were done by people playing under a different alias and then abusing the fact that they had found the admin password.

A couple quick comments:

Quote

Simply put you are what us here hicks call spineless white trash and NOT even worth our time.

Seriously, you're old enough to be my father. Comments like that are not necessary, regardless of the situation. I'm aware of this at 19 years of age, when will you be?

When XtremeBain and I ran eR33t Servers, we had few complaints (comparatively). It seems like the abusive administration of GT Servers is a hot topic these days -- obviously it is a problem. To my knowledge there's just two or three people who are actually providing the funds for the servers. So fix the problem. Cut off as many extraneous admins as possible. Problem fixed (or at least muted).

As far as updating the servers to the current build, I’m not as quick to take a side. It seems like removing the most popular (the administration is obviously tolerable for quite a few people) servers from the list just because they choose not to update their servers for a release (in it’s alpha stage) is rather harsh.

On the same token, I feel that jitspoe has been a little quick to push new changes onto the community. Let people have a taste before you force feed them. I don’t ever recall having a sense of what kind of changes to expect with each new build until release. I am somewhat reminded of the change in ball-flight/realism way back in the day. Sure, it makes sense. It was a good choice. The way it was introduced was not. I remember reading in on a conversation where the fact that “people hate change” was used as justification for the mixed criticism. People do hate change… but it doesn't hurt to ask them anyway…

<anonymous> mut's <<<<<<<WALLHACK>>>>>>>>> bind begs to differ

that's right. it was me. i'm sick of the constant bullexcrement that goes on in the graf servers, and i don't feel like holding it in anymore. i don't know what it is about the servers, or maybe it's just me, but it seems whenever i'm playing on the server with a bozz or snipen, BOOM, i'm kicked....i was just temp-banned today actually..

PiCaSSo · « **Reply #63 on:** January 05, 2005, 05:12:27 PM »

Strange that you guys keep bringing up that old bind... I used to use it to annoy and piss off the opponent but when I saw that so many were so annoyed by it I removed that bind... That was almost a year ago and your still here bringing it up. Fyre I don't understand why it's even in your post... That bind has NEVER been used on the Graffitti servers and I don't recall ever kicking or banning you...

Blitz - Nor are the constant dis respectful and insulting ones of his. Take a picture of yourself because you are one of the few at any age in DP that are truly aware.

"Blitz - Nor are the constant dis respectful and insulting ones of his."

Yeah i did personally insult you when i was traversing a seperate universe due to the consequences of alcohol. I believe when i had later returned to this universe i apologized for my actions or at least stated that i wish i hadnt done that. I was not myself at that moment in time. If i knew how to delete that post i would of.

[GT]Snipen · « **Reply #66 on:** January 05, 2005, 08:52:36 PM »

Ok where to start, this has gone too far so hopefully we can end this and have fun playing.

Its all true it's all me and it's all my fault. Now with that being said,

Most times that people where kicked it was for good reasons, but I'm sure there where times people where kicked unjustly , and there has been times people where view gibbed for fun and giggles , and times people have been gibbed on accident , and other times gibbed for what ever reason, and there have been times that some players have joined and started doing things to try and get kicked just so they could say they had been kicked. Another thing too is when someone was idle and were kicked there have been players who have jumped to conclusions and made false statements, but regardless of the reason there will be someone who says it was unfair. I have made it a point to try and be more politically correct in the use of admin options. So my apologies to those who feel slighted or abused.

Ok now on to the server side updates (yes jits contact me, I'm on ventrilo it would be nice if you join me there for a chat.)

Well let me start by saying that I haven't updated to the newest because it seamed like a new one is out every other week and it was being tested the last I seen. Another reason is I have been banned from the #paintball channel for almost a year now by knack(and I'm the admin abuser)
so how can I communicate with others on new builds and standalones? So I didn't update because the servers are running fine and I thought I'd wait and update at a later date and see how the new server worked and such. As far as removing us from the server list I only hope that Jits will return us to the list and that he feels that I am sincere in trying to run a better server for the paintball community.

So let me end this the way I started you might have forgotten what I said
"it's all me and it's all my fault "so accept my apology and lets play the game [GT]Snipen

Apology accepted Pierce... Takes a big man to do that... Maybe all of us can change the way we approach each other and this game... God knows many of us have been playing it since it first came out... Are we at 7 years?|

Anyway, You might just be as stubborn and bullhead as me so in reference to what I called you I offer my apologies as well.

LoiallyPoo TY for the condolences... OU Grrrr I can't beleive it but they did it again only worse this year. The way they handed the win over to USC they shoulda just forfieted... Woulda saved gas and energy lol I'm beside myself over that one because it was a sure win.... Thank God I didn't bet any money on the game. I want to see Auburn beat the pants offa USC... They truly should be #1

Any bets on next year??

PiCaSSo

P. S. Snipen thanks for all the good you do. Even though there are times you can be a POOP I'm still honored to have you has a RL friend... This game is fun but it aint everything LOL

loial21 · « **Reply #71 on:** January 05, 2005, 10:26:39 PM »

jitspoe · « **Reply #72 on:** January 06, 2005, 01:53:58 AM »

Snipen: Thanks for being mature about this. Unfortunately I don't have ventrilo installed or a mic set up at the moment, but you can grab the latest linux build off of the files page (1.802). Of course by the time you get it set up, I'll probably have another release out, but it won't be as critical.

Fyre · « **Reply #73 on:** January 06, 2005, 04:19:26 PM »

yeah, sorry bout my other post..i was just really bullexcrement about what had just happened. And Snipen, i'm glad you're finally taking responsibility for your actions..If only you could get the rest of the admins to do the same

PiCaSSo · « **Reply #74 on:** January 06, 2005, 08:30:13 PM »

Fyre could you be specific as to who it is that your referring to and what the circumstances were that were you felt were unfair?

Actually, Im glad to see that those words have actually followed his actions. I have been banned or kicked a few times in the past, mostly without any given reason (e.g. for just killing Snipen), but in the last weeks (I'd say beginning when this discussion came up), Snipen has done a lot less bad actions in Paintball. I havent seen anyone being kicked without a prior warning, and with reason, so it looks like he has learned from it

I kept on playing on Graffiti Servers because they are more popular and therefore more populated than the Apex servers and just because I use HLSW (Halflife Server Watch), so I had no problems with them being off the server list. I would suggest to Jitspoe to put them back on it, even tho they dont have the newest build installed (I hope the admin abuse was the reason for the removal, not the update, because the latter would be quite childish and many people like the older build).
gj Snipen to admit your faults, not many have the strength to do that.
Thx for reading

Fyre has a habit of joining the server and calling people childish, immature and unintelligant for cussing/joking etc. He then starts saying he didn't say anything and he didn't start it blah blah blah... he just has mood swings I think, and he takes it out on people in the server. I hate people that can't take jokes.

it's not jokes anymore when it happens repeatedly when an admin is in there...i'm 15, and i'm very surprised you people who call yourselves "adults" even bothing saying anything to me. I think it would be both worth your time and my time to leave me alone altogether.

As for the so called 'jokes', you crossed the line when you taiji, and other who I will not name, were using extreme profanity such as the infamous "c" word, with my twelve year old brother in the server! I try to protect him from hearing these words, and once you find out he's only 12 you say them even more. I'm sick of you're immature ways and it needs to be stopped.

...on another note...there i go getting viewgibbed again by snipen for killing him and almost winning the game..

PiCaSSo · « **Reply #79 on:** January 07, 2005, 07:00:19 PM »

Fyre welcome to the Internet... You can't control the world by expecting people not to use profanity ect.. When you connect to the Internet you connect at your own risk.

Jitspoe's new ignore feature should serve you well and maybe he can add a babysitter version that filters out cuss words. Seems like I've seen something like that with DP already... Was that serverside or clientside.

Unfortunately, I'm inclined not to believe you concerning any recent gibbing ect from Snipen... I've seen you many times come on the server bad mouthing them and trying to get people to go to Apex in the past. Maybe you were abused on the server in the past or maybe you did something to deserve it... I don't know because I wasn't there. Hopefully we can move forward and all that has changed.

I, whom occasionally calls himself and ADULT, Have always been nice to you and almost always say Hi to you. I have to be an "ADULT" in the Real World so it is definately NOT my primary objective to be one when I come to play this game. I come here to unwind, chat with friends, play the game I've been addicted to for about 7 years now, and cut lose with a nice 44oz Jim Beam Black n Coke

Admin is NOT there to babysit you ADULT or NOT However, I can only speak for the times I'm on the server that if I see it or am made aware of it that those starting crap and causing trouble will be warned and then ejected from the game. I generally warn both sides if there are more than 1 involved and the first violation following gets the boot.
