Title: Why do i get kicked randomely on strange servers?
Post by: Sakura-chan/Tsunade on February 22, 2008, 09:17:45 pm
Its strange but today i got kicked on 2 servers both after the other?
The first server when i connecetd they straight aways votekicked me,
and the next server they  straight away kicked me again.
When i say reason for kicked almost none of them answer, even on the other server?

In tremulous is it allowed to get kicked without reason and when i just enter a server?

(My ingame name is [TF]Sakura)
Why is there blank servers and those horrible boxes?
Is tremulous a friendly or evil community?

(Is kicking random players allowed). ??? ??? ??? ???  >:( :-[ >:( :-\

Server owners can do what they want.

Of course we're all evil >:(

Expect a lock on this topic.

Nah, this doesn't quite fit into the "people on such and such server are mean" category, but a more general question.  As Death On Ice said, server owners can do whatever they like.  Some of them are nicer than others, some of them are not.

It's quite possible that the two servers you tried to join were either bad places to go, or filled with idiots (some people now and then like to think that because they're playing on a server, no matter where it is, they're "entitled" to kick whomever joins so they can keep their private game.  On the servers where I'm an admin we usually permanently ban those kinds of idiots, since it's not their server to make that kind of call).

My suggestion would be to try whatever servers you can where your ping is low; if you want to say your location, others may be able to suggest good places to go (For example, any of the PureTremulous servers which are located in the US, but some folks overseas have had good connections there as well).

Anyone can setup a server, and anyone can be an admin on a server, but not necessarily everyone *should* :>

Some people like to hop on empty servers in pairs, and votekick anyone who connects. Even if they are using lakitu's QVM

Probably ping.
Also since they dont respond it could be a non english server.. they will boot you as well since they rely on another language to interact. Some  servers will kick you to keep a slot open for someone who just left or is about to join.
Get a low ping english sounding non clan server that isn't practically full and you should be golden.

In tremulous is it allowed to get kicked without reason and when i just enter a server?

Yup.

Why is there blank servers and those horrible boxes?
Because it moves your server up in the list. And apparently the higher it is in the list the better it is  ::)

Is tremulous a friendly or evil community?
Both. Overall if you don't get discouraged by the bad seeds initially you'll find everyone is a cuddly baby tapir. (Bonus points if you get the reference)

Anyone is well come to (Cebt)Milking Grounds as long as they stick to English, don't have black names and not tk/decon (we are pretty wild builders our self so we don't kick for moving base to interesting locations.)

I could explain, but that would ruin the moment  ;)
