Title: [df] targeted?


Ninetails - September 1, 2009 08:58 PM (GMT)
well i was online at 1.30 am my time an what do i see
[df]Bongwater
after 2 mins i see a bk message. The person who's turret was killed initiated a vote to kick him? of course it didn't pass. I and Dope were laughing our ass off saying how can a owner be kicked.
surprisingly our so called Bong initiated a vote to kick the guy whose turret he killed, it didnt pass and he initiated a vote to kick me
HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE ? BONG CAN KICK ME as he is higher in admin level then me
then Dope admin kicks bong n HE IS KICKED...OBVIOUSLY A SMURF

after 6 mins he comes back as [df]Republic
in reality repub writes his name as [df]RePuBliC or something like that with caps in the middle and i had also talked to him 2 hours before n he was offline for sure.I admin kicked him and it went thru [note rep is a super admin]
Now he comes back as admin-abuse. I kicked him again
==>After 6 mins he comes back as [df]eatme. Luckily we identified him and <!>blue was also there and we told him to ban that guy

well what was happening here?
[df] being used?
note his ip was something like 92. something

didn't get the whole thing but it starts with 92

Guero - September 1, 2009 11:17 PM (GMT)
Is it possible for some of the [df] admins to get promoted from public to super? I can't ban. LOL

Also, it seems like half the players are admins. I'm not so sure but I think that's pretty bad for the server. Just my .02.

Bongwater - September 1, 2009 11:21 PM (GMT)
i agree guero.. but its exactly why u have admin.. lol..

admin list needs to be cut down though ur right.

well work on upping u in the next few days.

Isn't that the same guy that you talked about there: http://z3.invisionfree.com/fools/index.php?showtopic=3397

I had problems with that guy too. He starts to disrupt the game and, after kicked, he comes back as "ADMIN ABUSE VICTIM". Then I just ignore him until he acts up again. Is he a second version of Tomato (just kidding xD)?

Tomato v2.1 D:

I believe he was that guy who smurfed me and bong last time and voted to kick me many times.

is it full proof?

Bongwater - September 2, 2009 12:56 PM (GMT)
it allows u to register u name.

so that if someone connects with your name and cant provide hte proper password the server automatically kicks him for being a smurf.

ah i see...its similar in Dryl's meltdown n anni mods
u have to press !register n it registers u. But u have to save a password in the other info section

Perrinoia - September 2, 2009 04:14 PM (GMT)
I just wrote a login script that uses sad();

The first time you use it, it registers your username and password.

If you use it again while logged in, it'll change your password.

If the name is registered, you must log in before it'll allow you to select a team or use the tab menu.

Omega - September 2, 2009 04:36 PM (GMT)
What a terrible idea; those of us with vista issues (not many, but i've met 1 other in my rare time playing with the same problem I have) who cannot access the console.

It's built into the mod using the "other info" field to secure your identity in trpg - particle's mod.

Ninetails - September 2, 2009 05:02 PM (GMT)
Coming back to the point guero made, u need to reduce the number of admins in the server
in my opinion[For other clans] u can allow 1 god admin for the leader of a clan with a maximum of 3 sub admins for the other members of the clan. To whom it is given can be at the discretion of the clan leader.

Im sure this should reduce the excessive admin creation especially from OZ [not sure of TL] indiscriminately issuing admins to all their members
i remember Rage{OZ} saying that he never had admin and "BAM one day i logged in and i had it" How did this happen?

-currently OZ has 2 god admins =tree and crow [various sub admins]
-Pushbiscuit also has 2 god admins= Blue and redneck[few sub admins]
-i don't think TL has any god admins but i think destiny or sub zero can earn one[Dope and Linux have super and public respectively]
[Emerald doesn't deserve one]

Hope this helps out

Omega - September 2, 2009 05:29 PM (GMT)
Can't make any of them godadmins, as they can and will admin other people.

Bongwater - September 2, 2009 05:31 PM (GMT)
OZ has already been spoken to about handing out admin.

crow wont admin anyone without my permission.

eviltree should only have super.



Jerry Garcia - September 2, 2009 06:13 PM (GMT)
Guero needs to suck a dick, not have superadmin.
This punk has always had a chip on his shoulder, despite not even being an adult. It's frustrating getting admined by some clueless kid who thinks he runs shit.

Bongwater - September 2, 2009 06:45 PM (GMT)
if u have a problem with the way an admin does things post it in admin abuse section, id love to hear about those kinds of things.

Jerry Garcia - September 2, 2009 07:15 PM (GMT)
It's not that big a deal to me, but since you ask. Guero thinks he runs shit. If you're doing anything he doesn't like, even as simple as having a conversation with someone (as in my case), he will take action. He can't play worth a shit, so thats his only way to assert dominance. It wasn't that big a deal, I think I got muted for a min or 2. Just looks bad for you guys when I ask Crow, "what's your clan's policy on hm these days?" Then I get muted and Guero says, like he's some kind of big swingin dick, "I told you no more talking about hm, anybody else?" :angry:

well thats harsh..the right to speech is permitted as long as u are not spamming...may be the point in his mind was that u are spreading the existence of hm to more players how still don't use it...although its not a secret anymore...
well i have never seen jerry spam so i guess i will side with him

Bongwater - September 2, 2009 08:43 PM (GMT)
u can say anything u want in that server so long as u dont spam it.

vistalize - September 2, 2009 09:23 PM (GMT)
if you want to talk about admins ninetails... u didnt say one thing about pushbuscuit whom about 6-7 members have super admin in that server. OZ has about 4 admins? I would like to keep my God admin for the {OZ} clan I am alot more active than Crow is.

Jerry Garcia - September 2, 2009 10:02 PM (GMT)
well, I don't want people taking sides. My only point was to your leaders, Guero has always acted like he was big shit, intimidating and threating others with his admin. If they did or said anything he didn't like, they faced consequences. That is not what admin is about.

Bongwater - September 2, 2009 10:36 PM (GMT)
OZ has quite a few actually. i removed a bunch of <!> admins already the other day.

Guero - September 2, 2009 11:35 PM (GMT)
Sigh, I knew some day this would come up. Jerry, you left the game before I could explain myself.

The discussion had been going on for like 15-20 minutes. I was tired of you guys cussing each other out, accusing each other, and harassing each other. I had REPEATEDLY asked all of you to shut the fuck up. However, when I would refer specifically to you, I would say "Jerry, please, be quiet." If you didn't notice, I was being polite to you, while telling all the other ones to shut the fuck up. I do respect you and heck, maybe even admire you. I always had the impression that you and me were both on the same ground about a lot of things and that we liked each other as fellow Tribes players. I still respect you no matter what you think of me.

Yes Ninetails, part of the reason why I started muting and kicking was because like 3 other "noob" players were asking what HM was. I didn't want 3 other "noob" HMers. Also, I had warned all the ones involved in the argument on global chat like 20+ times to leave the topic alone, or to go on Xfire and start a conference or something. No one listened. I hate the fact that I can't mute for like 15 or 30 seconds, it has to be 60 or 120. I also hate the fact that Brazil server does not have a warning system. Anyway, the 60sec mute was meant as a "warning" for you Jerry. I know Bong that I could've just ignored them on the game, but I didn't want HM to spread.

My sincerest apologies to you Jerry, I hope we can go back to being buddies, if we were ever that.

Bongwater - September 2, 2009 11:38 PM (GMT)
guero . if they bug u ignor them or mute them(not detougne).. you dont have a right as admin to police peoples conversations.

HM is available everywhere and if someones gonna use it they are gonna use it.

Miner - September 3, 2009 12:21 AM (GMT)
Censoring the 1st amendment, Lol Guero you know better. As some advice, cursing at people rarely has the desired effect when requesting something from them. If administrating is stressful you can choose not to do it.

Güero - September 3, 2009 12:52 AM (GMT)
Alright, fine with me. I'll comply, however, everyone seems to make up rules on the spot, can we have some extensive and detailed server rules?

People are gonna find out about it no matter what. The best thing to do to stop new people from getting it is to voice the other side. Of course some HMers are gonna tell these noobs to get it, that its cool, whatever. Thats why we need to talk to the noobs, tell them what it is and tell them how the community feels about it. Tell them that it is cheap, and that they should not get it. We need to educate them in that direction, becuase if we dont then they will go the other way when some HM using player teaches them about that.

Actually I have a pretty good idea in that aspect. But I'll need perrin's help.

i admire u taking a step u help the cause but i doubt br owner is gonna care a damn
in my opinion he hasn't made his mod 1.30 yet coz
1) 50% traffic on the server are hmers, so if hm doesnt work his traffic reduces by half
2)I think he hosts his server from somewhere far, where he doesn't have access to it on daily basis so he prefers to leave it that way.

Bongwater - September 3, 2009 02:01 PM (GMT)
kamil is super busy right now.. he works 2 full time jobs a day.

The server is hosted in Seattle.

- getting him to make ANY changes , minor or major, takes months.

he has been meaning to run my carnage mod for 3 months now. i dont know whats up with that.

Jerry Garcia - September 3, 2009 06:17 PM (GMT)
Well, Guero that's a good start at getting what you want.
I appreciate the apology, and the manner in which you replied, especially after I said some not so nice things.
Of course you are not delusional, we were friends, and we always fought on the same side, whether it be against hm, spammers, or just jerks in general.
I am extra upset because of how it all went down. I was already pissed from the argument, then when you muted me, it put me over the top. Ya, in the whole scheme of things, that mute wasn't so bad, but coupled with my already existent anger, I got real pissed.

It is not a problem we can't get past, but this incident has made me think differently of you, so you will need to earn that trust back.
All I really want out of this is for you to understand your mistake, which I think you have, and become a friendlier and more helpful admin. :D
