Enough heavy-handed administrating!
« on: December 30, 2012, 08:01:04 pm »
Second time I've been shouted at by admins for not doing a suicide run at the enemy right at the start of a round. I know you want free service, but please stop making powertripping hormonal 16 year olds admins. It's very very frustrating. Very very very frustrating. I've invested all this time into organising a tactics based approach to the maps, far more flavourful than straight running toward the enemy firing, crouching reloading rinse and repeat. This is strongly letting my game down, it is very upsetting, it is a pandering to the lowest common denominator. I recommend a review of all of your admins, half of whom seemed to have picked up the game a week prior.

Are you talking about public or private servers?

Still it's mostly pubber not admins writing in caps locks into chat. I've never encounterd such admins and I doubt I ever will.
And for the record I'm 16 so yeah...

I've never encountered this, not by admins of a public server.

And yes, I will shamefully admit, I've been that troll who decides to run to all 4 corners of the map when I'm the last surviving member of my team.  Only one.  Maybe twice :P

Seriously what are you talking about? On EU1 we don't tell people not to charge, we encourage people to fight so that the round ends quicker

Probably on the wrong servers.

The only time you will get told to charge by an admin will be when you're last alive, there is about 2 minutes left and the enemy are on the other side of the map. This happens so that we get rounds in instead of everyone sitting around doing nothing.

I was rather impressed if i say so myself by the diverse range of vocabulary you so expertly demonstrated, your text is simply flowering with delectable phrases and it was a rather engrossing read i dare say, good show old chum.

As for the relevance no admins will shout in admin chat to charge, at least not on any NW_Official servers as all admins are bound by a code and ruleset of how to act, if an admin did this he/she would no longer have said powers. Secondly most admins are mature members of the community and have been around for a relatively long period, longer than you stated 'a week prior' therefore i believe it would be logical to post names, and what servers you were on.
I hereby present Crusader with the Blobdominican medal for Bravery above and beyond the call of duty in his role as AdminBorn of the FSE servers. We have also arranged some lovely flowers & a kitten to commemorate the occasion.
Thanks Crusader for all of your work in the community!

You aren't an admin so you don't need to be.

Well first off, you need to tell us which server you are talking about.  Every single Server Owner and Admin in the entire community is now going to read this and think you're talking about them.


Secondly, these two phrases...

...lead me to my obvious conclusion....that you are a sapper and have decided to build some grand "Swiss Family Robinson" tree house every round that forces the enemy to hack and chop you out of your wooden block for 2 minutes while everyone else on your team is forced to watch and wait until you die so the next round can start.



Am I close?
