Apparently they've given you plenty of chances. Being kicked once was a message. Being banned temporarily was another chance. People in this community aren't hateful towards others unless they have a reason. You are giving them that reason.

Let me bring in the little knowledge I gained from helping run a server on a source engine mod. Idiots are common and to be expected. People say stupid stuff and do stupid things, it's human. Sometimes they cross the line, and they need to be shown the right way again, either through simple reminder, or by force; whatever the situation warrants.

However, people who are a nuisance, who continue to pester and bug and offer useless feedback that simply puts down a map for not reaching their self-believed high standard need to be taken care of; people who have been reminded and punished for their actions yet continue to act the same way; people who are a splinter in a community based around shared knowledge and collaboration in making custom content for the benefit off all, need to be taken care of. Permanently.

The reason a kick doesn't get to me is because it's basically saying to me, "I don't like you fuck off" Instead of saying you need to improve on this.

No need to be a douchebag.


the first time i kicked you and banned yo ufor an hour was because you were being less than useful in the server. its ok to come in and just play, everything that came from you in chat was 'this sucks, change the map, this is dumb, etc'.

when asked to stop you didnt, so you were kicked and temp banned. after you were unbanned, you came in with a sarcastic attitude. "this map is great, these stairs are great, this light is great, etc".

this isnt needed. you want to just play in the servers? fine. play. but dont spam chat with useless comments and dont berate the map makers with useless feedback.

dont ask to change the map to a stock map on gamedays as we keep to a schedule.

i will leave it up to the other mods/admins wheter to unban you or not.

Eh just leave him alone for now. If he's a troll we're feeding to it. It'll resolve sooner or later.

Why would he get any thanks or give any thanks when he's spent as little time on the forums as he has?

Seems like we're holding our standards quite high here. Even if he's ignorant to look right past kicks and such, now he's been told directly and has attempted to explain himself. He should get another chance, to prove whether he's a troll or not.

From what I've seen it appears he's been given several chances. I understand not learning the first time, but after the second something needs to be done.

I don't use the word "permanently" lightly.

Either way, It's not my responsibly to make the call. The staff can choose how they handle this in their own way.

He's just a troll guys. he's going to act all innocent and if the admins give in he'll get unbanned, and do the same thing he did in the server, grief and be a general idiot

I'm not a fucking troll dickwad,

And if I was, I wouldn't put so much effort into getting unbanned,

I would just go troll some other server
