Hi! from the start, thank you for the great service, the servers are awesome, and thanks for paying attention to this thread if you are, i just registered to ask about this, i was banned today on the 2fort server,for no reason that i know of, i suppose it was because i called a vote to mute a player that was constantly posting something like "shut the fuck up nerds" over and over again over the chat, not sure, all i know is that that was the last thing i did, and then i was banned.
Normally i wouldnt care, i thought it was going to be for 30 minutes, but then i tried to reconnect and found out that i was perma banned apparently also i cant connect to any of the other skial servers either, and well i would like to know the reason because honest to god i didnt know if i did anything.
Thats all, thanks for reading and i appreciate all answers.

Oh my steam account is called the same as my forum one btw.
 
sorry you are right just tried to log in again and saw the address to check the reason, so here is the copy paste:

im sorry but this is just not true, i didnt spam at all, i didnt use the mic and at most said 2 or 3 things on the chat, that where comments on what the players where talking about on the server.

Edit: in fact this happened while two other players woot and smeagol where basically spamming the mics as a joke, i dont get why would i get a ban.
 
should i pm him or just wait for him to answer here?

also i feel like i should clarify this, im not saying the ban was ridiculous, i havent really read the rules, but im pretty sure i didnt do anything and i also understand the admin work is hard wen you are playing, im just trying to understand exactly what did i do, specially to avoid doing it again
 
Ruelel promptly pointed out that the reason I put in was "1440" last night. I recalled the name, know that you did do something warranting a ban, but got mixed up in being tossed between Doublecross, Turbine and other places with issues for micspamming.

I'll double check, but I'm quite sure you did a voteban on a random person without any explanation twice.

[Double reads your posts]

There we are! Yeah, Zebra messaged me while we were on 29, asking if I'd take care of it. I went to regular 2fort, didn't see your name. I checked status and saw Zebra telling me it was West 2fort. Went there, was there for a few. I heard Smeagol doing callouts for his team - not spamming. I saw you do a voteban, and had 4 different people agree that you did it multiple times. I went in, didn't identify myself as an admin, and simply heard them all saying that. That in collaboration with you having the reported name and not answering me when I asked the reason for the voteban was enough.

I messaged with Smeagol afterward, and added several people on that server to my friends list to report any issues.

I'll fix the reason, but the ban remains. It's temporary, in case you didn't catch that.
 
I'll reduce it for the mistake and offer my apologies. However, please don't spam votes and answer me when I ask the reason for said votes.

Sorry didnt see you asking for the reason, as for the votes, i called 3 votes, 2 to ban and one to mute, i must have been playing for a total of.. 10 minutes? the first vote was because moot was insulting everyone constantly, and since the ban didnt pass i called a vote to mute him, wich actually did win but didnt take effect or so it seemed since he himself made a comment on it saying "so, am i muted now?", as for the second ban vote i think i must have disconnected for some reason or something, i conected again because i was playing with a friend on the server, and smeagol had been joking kind of imitating moot, and some guy was pissed off at him and was constantly spaming on the chat "shut the fuck up nerds", this second ban vote seemed have won, at least the last time i checked it had 10 votes on yes and 9 on no, and next thing i know i was banned.

Anyways that explained, thanks a LOT for answering and the great attention from all of you, i really apreciate it, and will be more carefull with calling votes in the future.
 
I saw 8 on yes and 11 on no, if memory serves.

Again, my apologies, but 3 votes in 10 minutes is.. Myeh.. If there's a problem, just put an admin on your friends list and message them for issues. Or, better yet, client mute.

Sorry again for the mis-mark of reason.
See you around. Happy gaming.

I disagree with you saying it's better to client mute somebody because of micspamming then actually stop him with a voteban or votemute to do so :/
That just allows trolls to continue micspamming and the folks who don't know about client mute will have to suffer from the micspamming

If votemutes didn't pass, deal with it yourself. [Shrug]
