Your kidding?
I don't think it was Lava because that would just be so disappointing.

Nah, a lot of people hate Lava's guts, and would do that just to try to put a bad name on him. :P

Where is your server located?  Be smart next time... check the guy's ping and ip before you ban him.  The real Lava's a Dutchie, IIRC.

It happened over the weekend on the Wrath Newbie server too I think. I'm not an admin and wasn't playing and it was near the end of a game anyway I seem to recall, so I didn't notice much besides the nick. I was on the other side of the map spectating the alien builder when he (whoever it was) supposedly deconned the RC and some other human stuff then disconnected.

New to Tremulous? Look up the Wraths Newbie Server in the in-game server list.

Hi, The Lava that was on my server had a purple L and green AVA and then a purple C followed by green ROFT.

don't know what Lava goes under these days.
But this deconning Lava appeared as above.

be nice to see if there was a pattern to these Deconnings.

And that sounds like one of those newspaper articles. :D

"I was freaked when I saw 'lava croft'. He deconned the O/M, and when I tried to rebuild it he attacked me", I.F. said to our reporter. He added: "I was never so scared in my life. I thought I was gonna die."

I.F., a 25yr old veterinarian from Ohio, is one of the few survivors of a recent drive-by shooting by a crazed individual who goes under the alias 'Lava Croft'. The server admins are currently investigating and said they are cooperating with the Police in this matter, but have so far declined to comment further on any leads they may have.

This unfortunate event is only the latest in a wave of random, senseless attacks that have affected several Trem servers. It feels like this reporter's duty to condemn such outbursts of violence and call for more severe safeguards, if only for the sake of our children.

*rofl* I just got pissed because of Lava-Croft, and what do I see in the forum? ;)

You see, maybe that guy once had his senses together, but that time has long since passed. Now he is nothing more then a troll, unfortunately, a troll with admin-rights. FYI, I had trouble with him several times in the past, and appearently, today. He heavily did and obviously does abuse his admin-rights, cancels votes at will, kicks people at will, and I even just got kicked out of the respective irc-channel, as I wanted to discuss some topics, like that the votekick-mechanism is broken on satgnu, and that ops a la lava don't do a server good.

Personally, I would not mind, but it was people like him who made a once thriving server to a pretty deserted place, which is quite a damage to the community :(

You know, it really is interesting, I wanted to look up the GEZ's server contact to ask them if they could make the armoury rebuildable during SD, and what do I see? A thread about a troubled Dutchman...

It's bad thing that the community must suffer people like him, but fortunately, there is more then one server, altough some of them are always full, and you hardly can get a slot on them.

And no, I don't think that this deconner was a fake. Playing several years now, I can really tell that this guy... well, just forget him.

I have retired from Tremulous. Definetely. If you play a game just because it has become a habit, but u'r only feeling like a kindergarten teacher - well, maybe I am just getting too old (hell, I was a teenager when DukeNukem3D was *new*) - it's probably not a bad idea to just let it be. And I do.

Don't take this personally. Have fun, guys.
