Title: Newbie (n00b) Friendly Server
Post by: Lava Croft on May 17, 2007, 03:17:20 pm
Hi,

maci and I thought it would be hugely entertaining to re-open SatGNU, with the purpose of allowing a maximum of 56 n00bs to come and act all newcomer-like.

So, if you are new to Tremulous and are looking for a place where you can exercise you n00bidity without fear of being banned, connect to 85.214.67.75:30720 and brush up on those n00b skills of yours!

See you!

maci & LavaCroft

I'll move this to the Servers section soon, just to be ahead of anyone that might moan.

It's been one hour since the OP, quit whining and realise they're just doing this to make fun of sst.
It's not like they're pretending to be serious, they're saying right there that the players should act as nooby as they like.

They're making fun of a lot of things lately, clans and servers. What, there's nothing wrong with that because Lava's an admin?

And everybody is making fun of everything, as long as there is no rule against that, you question is irrelevant.

Hrm, did anyone else besides plague bring up SST?

If you don't like people poking fun at SST, you should probably wait until the flamers go away, because other then that, very few bash SST.  Or if they do, they'll actually not spam words but have something backing up their opinion.

Did I mention anything about lava specifically? He is brutally honest, moreso then even me and that is where he gets my respect. He doesn't get it because he moderates/admins, acts tough or yells at 'noobs'. Do I care about him? No. The same way I don't really care about you or most people who I just don't get in touch with that much. Now move along and stop getting trolled. Let's keep this forum healthy and vendetta free. That means when someone provokes you, be smart and don't act.

Vendettas aside for a moment please.

You guys really don't need to rip into Plague Bringer.  He was just bringing up a good point about the similarities between Lava's new server and SST.  The only reason I can think of for flaming him about it is if his comments offend you.  The only reason I can think that it would offend you is that his comment points out hypocrasy on your part.

At Survivor:  I have a lot of respect for you, but please don't allow your judgement to be clouded in this instance.  Plague Bringer makes an honest point, and gets flamed by Caveman (who goes on to flame floodbud later in the thread).

If you are going to preach, please don't do it to the metaphoric choir.

No one is assuming you did it for any specific reason.  Bringer was just noticing the similarity to SST, that's all.  Can we leave it at that?

I was pointing out that they might or might not have been (intentionally) trolling. I know I would still not join that server on the same principle I would not join sst. But then again I never flamed sst, i simply stated a few times why I would not. What I was trying to prevent in both my posts is an escalation towards a SatGNU vs SST discussion. Which I failed again because I am too nice.

Make a clear statement the first time, and I won't have to question.  Your post to Bringer had a very biting tone to it, and it wasn't until your (political apology) "clarification" that I was satisfied.

Life's been busy, but I usually take time off to point people in the right direction. With a bit of luck it'll be done when 1.2 is done :p (don't bet on that though)

Also Kobra, you shouldn't question me at all since I'm not obligated to explain anything to you.
Us mods let a lot of stuff slip, and we catch shit for stuff that we don't let slip, we take this burden for the community. That means we try to make it all work, you don't need to know exactly how on every occasion.

Good point, Survivor.  And I retract my flammatory expletive in reference to Lava.  I'm really just a regular guy that gets pretty defensive pretty fast.  I'll try to keep it defensive in the future, and not go on the (flaming) warpath.

Please reign Plague in, though... his comments are really quite unnecissary.

KobraKaine, if you feel the need to use one's sexual preference(s) as a base for insults, you are on the wrong forum. Insults based on someone's sexual preference(s) are quite the same as insults based on someone's race. Such behaviour is not tolerated here.
