So I got banned yesterday for retaliating against another TKer. Which is technically against the rules but since there was no admin online at the time and vote kicks did not work I felt I had no choice. Once an admin did get online and I reported the issue I got banned while the TKer who started it all surprisingly enough was not. The backwards logic behind this reasoning boggles the mind. However I do not really want to debate this, but if you could please use this 0 tolerance policy against people who actually start fights in the future that would be great.

I just wanted to ask how long I have been banned from the archer limit server. I can join the other ones but fighting 9-12 archers instead of 4 is something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy tongue.gif

Thanks for answering the question.

I won't deny I have acted like a dick (mostly to other dicks) on many occasions. At the time chivalry was the 'main' game I played and for some reason people who ruined my time annoyed me more than they do in other games (which is weird because I have played plenty of league of legends xD). I am aware this negativity has escalated situations in the past and if that has offended or annoyed admins you do have my apologies.

Be that as it may, it still does not make me understand this particular ban. While the chat may suggest otherwise (mostly due to the inability to convey tone properly), I never cared/raged even remotely as hard as the chat would suggest. My in-game negativity was by choice, once again since I had little patience for people who are out to ruin the games of others. I probably crossed that definition at times as well, again, sorry if I did.

Getting to the main point now tongue.gif 2-3 months ago when most of this negativity occurred I had my fair share of arguments with the admins. But I have backed down on numerous occasions when asked by the admins, and have never received any real warning or punishment before. I always assumed this was because I largely react to negativity in the first place, and don't instigate myself most of the time. I guess I was wrong about your perspective on the matter. Don't get me wrong I realize the discussions led to some anger but such is the nature of arguments when peoples views and functionality enter the picture. Being somewhat of a pragmatist I took no offense to admins calling my views wrong, and assumed they did not take offense either. In retrospect it's a fair amount of assuming from my part, but it does not change my main issue with the current situation:

Going from no punishment or official warning to being banned permanently, especially in a time in which I don't take the game that serious anymore and I lay low, is something I do not understand. I have been an officer/admin in a fair share of guilds/communities but I have never seen issues handled in this manner. I feel it is highly unfair that annoyance towards me is building up and lingering in your back channels without communicating this to me, leading to an instant permanent ban after I come back from a break. Regardless of what you may think of me, I hope this reasoning makes sense to you as an admin.

Typing this I realize it's weird it took me 4 posts to get to the essence of my point, but so be it tongue.gif

Thanks for taking the time to read my two cents and feel free to change my mind.
