Admins shouldn't be allowed to admin
I support this 100%.

baybal: If you're having so many problems, play on another server. You're not going to get kharnov banned. ever.

i dont really care about the current discussion, but that banlog screenshot brings a bit of the backseat admin out on me.  it really really bugs me when i see kick/ban things passed (either by admin or callvote) with invalid reasons.  things like "pissing me off", "moron" and "enjoy the ban!".  just quote the rule broken and be done with it; "kick: griefing", "ban: repeat griefer" "kick: spamming text".

other than that bit, it's not my server, if i dont like the rules or admins, i can always run my own.

Agreed, good reasons should be given for kicks/bans. "Moron" hardly gives anybody an idea of what happened, but if it's a legitimate reason I think the server may just see a decrease in players.

Fuuuuurthermore, should legitimate kicks with illegitimate reasons be seen as abuse? I understand that sometimes admins need to be quick with kicks and will give a short or completely bullshit reason, but isn't there a way to change kick/ban reasons after the fact? Shouldn't admins be required to give a legitimate reason right away (read: does the player have the right to know exactly why he's been kicked, or does griefing mean you don't have that right)?

I never ban people for nothing .... and i only ban 2 stupid in all gpp testing (1 hacker, and 1 spammer) so when you tell that i ban guys all the day it make me laugh.

I know that sometime i dont have patience with noob that always make the same error , ex: move the the reactor without build a foward base with repeater. For all noob that wanna be better, plz spec good player play and learn form it.

So plz stop the drama with the admin abuse and learn to play nice

So you, Baybal, are that racist jerk who constantly spams that "allahu akbar" crap. You are now lower than Outflanked on my list of horrible people.

"denybuild: newbie builder"

newbie is one letter more than moron and makes for a more "legitimate" reason.  "griefier" "spammer" repreat griefer/spammer" is a lot shorter and more concise tha most of the "witty" reasons that i have personally seen.  not that i disagree with many/any of the bans/kicks with "invalid" reasons. 

i'd guess that you MAY get less of these bullshit "admin abuse" threads if the admins conducted themselves in their duties in a more "professional" manner.

but again, its really small beans.  just as i can, if it bothers someone excessively, they can always run their own server.  then i/they can be the admin and use any command they want for any reason!

Absolutely, think we're tyrants? you should have seen some of the 1.1 server admins at their best(thankfully i had admin on satgnu myself for a long time), be very grateful for the existence of official servers and admins who actually give a shit, even if it is just a small one...

To be completely honest, I don't think you even want to compare us to the 1.1 admins of old. Just bringing it (1.1 adminning) up brings a shiver to my spine (okay, I'm exaggerating a bit here.) I do however believe that certain admins should give better reasons for their administrative actions, no matter what they may be. Constructive criticism is a great start.

I wholeheartedly believe that tyrants should be smitten wherever they choose to rear their ugly heads. Let us never forget the teachings of the good book.

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know My name is the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon thee.
