Last night we were out playing on the server and I banned a player for his behavior and being a smart mouth. He was really good and I can understand his frustration at his team, me included, that we sucked. However, I don't see this as an excuse for his behavior to his team mates. His constant meele attacks on team mates and smart mouth is what pushed me over the edge. I did give him several warnings.
My question is am I too mean and did I unjustly ban his butt?
-
Perhaps a warning then a kick instead of a ban?
The only person that I have banned so far is the one that I warned repeatedly for language that turned around and cursed me out.
He didn't last very long. ;)
Just practice a little more mercy.

CUT HIS HEAD OFF! (spanish accent)

I would say a warnings, then 'kick', then a ban. Let's get serious here Opie. You totally bypassed the pleasure of a good kick! You went from a warning to a ban..and excluded the bonafide 'kick'. Do you not like the 'kick'? Should we take the 'kick' option away because it won't be used? I just don't understand Opie. You had a legitimate reason to use the 'kick' but didn't use it? If the 'kick' was used, you would have not only enjoyed the excitement of using the 'kick' option, but also the pleasure of receiving a response when the 'kickee' comes back to dish out a plethora of verbs and adjectives in your general direction.
USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK!
USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK!
USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK!
USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK!
USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK! USE THE KICK!
Was Opie Mean? Absolutely Not!

wolvy....lay off the sugar.......im the hyperactive one here...
USE THE KiCK!

Mostly I don't want to have to deal with the whiner when they come back on and start with the "Why was I kicked you *blankety blank blank*? I'm going to kick your *blank blank blushing blank blank*. You *blank blankety blank*!" If they are going to have an attitude once then it's going to happen again and I really don't feel like being disrespected on our own server. And yes, I do give a couple warnings, unless they are really belligerent and then they don't get to finish their sentence.
-
I have seen Opie the * Server Admin from Hell and honestly he was mostly in the right, I agree that maybe a 'kick' first instead of going straight to ban or maybe setting up a 24 hour ban just for Opie, But is opie too mean. NO!
Those guys would of been Baned anyway
Because they would have come back into
the sever and taunted Opie some more.
-
I go for the warning, then if they fail to clean it up, then I do a kick.
Haven't had anyone come back after that, but should they choose to, and continue with the behaviour that got them kicked in the first place, I will tell them that their behaviour is the reason they are now banned, and ban them.
My favourite was the time Jolly and I were on a server and someone was cussing. I politely warned him, and he in turn cussed me out, I promptly banned him. By the best part was that there were others warning him that I was the admin!
-
i wish i was there
-
I am not actually sure that Jolly was there, now that I think about it.
-
I was there at least I think I was there....Hmmm.
Didn't this transpire at the Harbor Map.
-
Yes, I do believe it was.
-
Opie being the BOFH that he is...there is only one correct answer....OF COURSE HE'S TOO MEAN!!!! If he wasn't he couldn't be a BOFH. But that's why we love him sooooo much!
I'd have to agree with Wolvy that the kick could be lots of fun especially when they come back....then the ban. You might actually get someone who wakes up with the kick and straightens out their behavior.
-
it didnt work for me.....ZW just hasent banned me yet
-
I'm waiting for the perfect moment. :evil
-
Snauz you push it way to much, you know that don't you?
I mean, First your taunting them to no end and getting the pants beaten off of you.
Then Repeatedly ask for a certain permission, you honestly have no right to.
and now you asking the to ban you from their server.
What give, I know you're young and dumb, but you got to know a limit.
-
i know the limit.....i just like to go beyond the limit a lil

You know, I know of a company whos admin password was 'password', but in a matter of security they chaged it to 'wordpass'
-
Wats funny is that is kinda a hard pass unless you know it
-
You could always finger the server until you found an open userid then write a script to open a remote root shell when it's executed. Just name the script after a command like ls. Then edit an admins account so that their environment has it's path for the ls command set to where ever you put your script. Opps, did the bad Opie surface once again?
-
A pasword cracker (John the Ripper, or other type software) would have it in under seven minutes.
-
But that's just plain lazy and requires no skills.
-
u got told jolly
-
It's not like you could have said anything there yourself Snauz.
-
ya know opie.....some of us dont look like famous improv stars
-
And some of us don't live with mommy either.
-
hey now im only 16......i need my mommie.......and my hair
-
Back in my day we would just hide behind our Mommy's skirt and keep our hair short.
-
this aint the 50s........pops
-
I thought that was the 40's?
-
I was young once, I had the hair... once.
Now ain't as young, and well, I don't have the hair either. At least not on TOP of my head. It seems to migrate to the ears and below once you start to get older.
:(
-
But you still play video games!:mg-rt:
-
oy jolly....at least he can play
-
Fragging is my stress relief. Especially since I am the admin and can BAN those who dare to cross me.
I really tried to be nice with Mugsy last night, but he just insisted on making a total mule of himself.
between the "nube" comments and the racist word, I was getting real tired of him.
I was almost glad when he taunted me after I politely gave him his 2nd warning.
Feel bad that I kicked Snake last night just as he was noticing all the messages. I think he came back as Snake2 though.
-
Mugsy wouldn't have lasted longer than the second racist comment with me, and that means no warnings just bans. It's a personality trait I really dislike. The noob comments would have got the warnings and kicks.
-
i miseed another moran messin with the admin?....shoot
-
You were there the whole time!
Jolly, am I wrong or wasn't he out there last night on Harbor while this was going on?
This guy even started calling me a noob 'cause I had the gaul to use a PPSH on him. The score was Me: 2x Him: 4 and he was calling me a NOOB! :evil
-
:lol:lol:lol --> snauz
-
I am not sure, I don't remeber the name mugsy.
I think Snauz and I had left by this point. Sorry.
-
Someone called me a 'noob' too..
my score shows i'm not a noob.... :shame:
-
No, what they were saying was boob. You're a boob.
-
no me and jolly missed that one......me and jolly were only with wolvy through brecourt that had to go
-
That you Snauz, you usefulness is over :sniper:
-
*kicks jolly in the head*
tsk jolly
