I agree, but it always happens, the admins start with "hi mate!" and off it goes 
I dont understand why he was banned, did he spam, ban him!!! to ban the guy who was being racist, I agree that the racist guy should be top priority
i also speak smiles and frowns |

Im neutral on this, but i think this racist should have been kicken withouth warning and this guy... rubin i think... should take it easy, it really pain in the a** when you hear complaining soo much for a trivial thing, just relog in the game and all be ok xD

I really don't like Rule 2: Do not swear at an Admin. It gives admins justification for abuse, and it's especially moot when you take in to consideration Rule 6: Do not make racial comments, or single out a player and abuse him/her. If someone is making it a point to constantly harass a player, they're breaking the rules, regardless of whether its an admin (by Rule 6). Making an explicit rule against talking back to admins is ripe for abuse.
Not too long ago, while playing Avalanche, I saw Tillis log in as admin and yell at someone to get off one of the towers at the base. I have no idea what this person was doing, but perhaps this was justified. In this case, nothing more happened, but let's say for the sake of argument that the person shot back 'shut up tillis', though perhaps using slightly harsher language. And maybe they didn't even notice that Tillis had logged in as an admin and maybe they have no idea who the mods are. If they had shot back this comment, Tillis could kick the player on the grounds of talking back to an admin, when this player really hasn't harassed Tillis in any way. In fact, Tillis, in this scenario, instigates the dialogue.
This really isn't an issue so long as the admins don't have paper-thin skin and can take a little name-calling, but as intense as matches can get, it only takes one comment to really annoy someone. The admins should have to put up with this just as we normal players have to. No matter how noble they think we should treat them, the admins shouldn't be beyond reproach.
Having said that, I haven't really seen any admin abuse thus far, but most of the time we're all well-behaved.  |
Yeah I agree. |
