Forum ban: AndyMc

Post by Azarael » Mon 19 Dec , 2011 5:06 am

I hate to have to ban people from the forums, as we're generally pretty lax here, but it's clear this guy is here to do nothing but waste our time.

For those who haven't encountered him yet, this is how it goes:

- Starts by being offensive to everyone on the BW servers
- Accuses players of botting
- Threatens to have the server shut down if we don't ban the "botters" (banned from servers for this)
- Joins forum to appeal the ban (in reality, post a lot of stuff, none of it the requested evidence, so the thread gets locked)
- Meanwhile PMs me for help on setting up a copy of the BW servers
- Comes back to post some disparaging stuff in the resolved ban appeals of other players

If anyone on the admin staff feels like a permanent ban is too high here, you're welcome to amend this ban - after all, we work by consensus here, and if anyone believes that a whole team of admins are in complete agreement all of the time - for example, in a conspiracy to allow botters on the servers - they've little understanding of human nature. You're welcome to criticise us, as long as the criticisms have at least some basis in fact. Accusing us of supporting botters when to do so would quickly ruin the server and lose all the players is not a grounded criticism anywhere except in cloud cuckoo land.

I am more than fine with the ban. This reminds me of the radical guy who thought he was chosen to 'free the Internet from religion'.
No comment here except 'good job'

Nothing to add.
Its all about the game, and how you play it
All about control, and if you can take it
All about your debt, and if you can payit
Its all about pain and whos gonna make it...
