My personal SST story
« on: December 14, 2006, 11:01:24 pm »
So, all the time I was wondering why people keep picking on that SST server... Yes, admins are strange and lag is high (or lag is strange and admins are high), but I didn't see it being bad enough to warrant all the animosity.

Anyway, just some minutes ago I had connected to SST and was spectating the match at ATCS (humans were crushed pretty quick when SD came), and so it was nearing the last few seconds of human base... and I was still spectating... and humans were pretty angered, shouting "TKer" and the like... so it was all pretty interesting - and all of a sudden, I'm out of the game: "You have been banned by [some funny-colored name]; reason: tking."

This wasn't my first kick or ban. It was, however, the first time I was banned for tking in a match where I was all the time spectating... That's pretty unique. Though it gives some sense to the picking and animosity against SST :-) and gives the revelation that SST admins are indeed not really "top-of-the-line" (and that being kicked/banned on SST doesn't necessarily mean you _deserve_ it :)

ONOH! ANOTHER POOR 10 YEAR OLD FLAMING!!!!1!!!

May i also ask who kicked you, what your in game name was?

There are only 2 bans for the 14th, and neither is perm:
  • Garota_Gostosa, for tk base
  • green man, which was a kick, for tker/douchebag.
Also, i have a nagging thought that this is just an attempt to slander sst again.

Just at your admins *cough Dr. ShakuraJohnlithon* (or whatever the hell his name is) I suggest you wipe all the admins besides yourself and Confess of course, then start over on your process, giving admin to not only people that make over 5 kills but people who are smart, have good judgement, and are mature.

Kick for being a "douchebag"? *GG*
I have to remember that one.

Edit: Damnit, I need more coffee...
@OP It's kinda useless to bitch about a kick if you dont write the name of the admin that kicked you.

I'm not saying that I WANT To be an admin, just saying that I could do a better job than those "noobish" admins...

Nocomputer might be a better admin than that ragtag bunch.
At least he wouldn't send mixed messages.

Need help? Ask intelligently. Please share solutions you find.

Thats what we need, helpful players, not more powerful admins.

Yet again Ill say it, I could give a fuck what you post regaurding a ban unless you post it on the website forums. We have a section specificly setup for things like this.
know that I myself cannot do anything, that I will fall, and that I am a sinful man, but I know that I can do ANYTHING through God Almighty, whom strengthens me.

Do I have to point out that you just said that you "could give a fuck" if he posts here UNLESS he posted over at your forums?

As in post here so I can give a fuck and don't post over there :-P

*sigh* A new SST complaint. Yes, SST does have admins who are careless. But it's kinda funny, cause this isn't so surprising.

this is not new.  You can be kicked/banned for anything and everything.  This happens to practically everyone.

Yes, usually, if an admin bans the wrong person, they will undo the ban. This happens on many servers. If you are wrongly banned, try reconnecting. again, usually, it will be removed.

I can't stand servers with shit loads of modifications. Beergarden FTW (it is starting to undergo changes *sigh*) I would love to find a server with no pounce damage, no FF ,and 100 bp.

Sorry for the delay (we had office christmas party yesterday evening :)

@Paradox: Sent you a PM; also, I've tried reconnecting afterwards, but was just told that I'm banned for ~29 minutes

@confess: I don't play on SST anyway (for long time already, mostly because of the lag); that day, I was bored so I thought it might be a nice idea to just watch a match on the only server where some people were around... So, actually I don't care much if I get kicked on SST or what comes of it, but I found this funny enough to post :-)
