Jinrai

i never said anything about a ban. if you have more of this fun, please stay you can put any way you like corby, but the situation is more than obvious now. but feel free to think of more excuses ^^

ok bro, thanks for contributing to the topic But why talk about an admin combatlogging in a war, in a topic about the war? Why would you post it on forum when the person with the biggest mouthful of logging out in combat, is attacking your base, and relogging when he gets owned by your lava? yes it's ridiculous.. im so ashamed

I love EmRA's pictures like this hahahaha oh goodie, a war. kinda peculiar that you initiated after i made a very well-behaved post about the disadvantages of having an admin as a raiding player. anyhoo: i have a picture too hope you like it ^^ its a piece of art about you in chat, weaseling your way out of the fact you came at us with full diamond, we didn't have shit in terms of materials, you blew one or two things up, and was actually stupid enough to let us trap you. then you act all cool about logging out cause you need a shower [how convenient]. we play along, but already made a prediction. if he comes back, and were still here, he will log out again and so it was. corby combat logging, well now ive seen it all. the best part is you claiming we 'werent in combat'. we didnt attack you, 'the lava attacked you not us', so it isnt combat logging. plus you even claimed clavus can get you out, because youre not in combat, but simply 'stuck. corby, this war has just begun and already you gave us so much entertainment. thank you <3 p.s. inb4 'you cut and pasted the comments together. anyone who wants the full screenshots just ask me, just cut em up to make it less spacey.

I think this thread is getting even more unnecessary than it was at the beginning. This ^ It was answered along time ago, Jinrai's whole post is pointless, should just be closed. You can both keep spamming posts about how uncessary and pointless this topic is, but it wasn't locked when I came here, so I am free to share my opinion here. And I think it's a bit childish to divert attention to the fact that this topic 'is unnecessary', or 'should be locked' and not reply seriously on my post. I mean, if it's so retarded, explain to me, point for point, why you think it is? My post isn't the same as TS's [pst

I think this thread is getting even more unnecessary than it was at the beginning. I do understand that admin's have made their point clear in the past, but to just repeat other's posts and say that this topic is unnecessary, is a pointless and unnecessary post in itself. Contribute something? Or don't post? Ty :]

Dear corby. I'm truly sorry that you take this post offensively. I tried so hard write this post as it was intended, not to flame you, but to express my concern for the mixed interests that emerge when someone with admin powers enters the playerbase of an extremely aggressive and [sometimes] frustrating game as faction wars minecraft. I never 'chanted' HACKER or ABUSER to you after dieing to you in-game, because as far as i recall, we never fought in-game. Sorry, I don't quite get what you mean here? My friend was kicked by an admin, darkstar wasn't even online at that time. You denied that it was you, and we all thought it was peculiar, nothing more, it's that simple. I don't twist anyones words. Even if I wanted, it has no use when it's your word against mine, at least thats my experience. Again, the fact that you see me as as 'bored and retarded' says more about your attitude than it says about mine. I know that in-game I can be an asshole, but thats what you get when you're in a world where people destroy hours of work if you don't pay attention. Now I'm actually serious and even saying I respect you for the things you do good in your position, and I get this kind of remark? Lol.

Okay, I'm going to get this off my chest without any bad intentions or trolling/flaming in mind. First of all: I think corby is doing a great job when it comes down to busting hackers, loggers and other obvious cheaters. But it's like this: If you're an admin, you have powers. You should use those powers objectively. Playing in a faction like Rangers affects this objectivity, no matter how you look at it. There has been more than one occasion where it was obvious that corby was making decisions in favor of himself, his friends, or his faction. Now I don't lie awake at night knowing this, after all minecraft is just a game. If i were in corby's shoes though, and I would be an admin of an awesome but at the same time insanely competitive server, I wouldn't even want to tempt myself by participating in the playerbase drama. Now the most frequently heard argument from the L4G side is; if you don't have proof of it, don't accuse. What is seemingly overlooked is that even IF you would suspect or know about power abuse, in most of the cases, it's just impossible to prove. For example, me and my friends were playing, just minding our own business, not even talking in chat, and all of a sudden my friend Ishibi gets d/c with the message: Kicked by server admin. So we ask corby [the only admin online that we knew of, at the time], do you know something of this? He simply replied: 'It's possible that he's been kicked, but not by me.' Well then who? Corby didn't want to elaborate on this. Now I know this is a really minor thing, but I chose this example just for the principle. In the case of TS, he could never ever prove it even if it were true. So the remark; you need proof is totally irrelevant in 99% of the situations. Clavus says: "Accusing him of exploiting his powers needs some serious proof before you even dare discussing it again. I can look things up in the logs if needed, and so far I've noticed nothing at all." And admins do not need to be separated from normal players. That'd be bullshit. Well clavus, admin powers are also the power of threats, not only the power of creating things or kicking [which might not show up in your log] I don't think corby abuses his /give command, my opinion is that he uses his position as admin as leverage in getting things done, like this example TS gave. Awesomeo is in trouble, accuses the attacker of hacking [while he relogged himself], corby kicks the guy for whatever reason, threatens him with bans, and awesomeo is home free. But for the sake of argument; even if corby would put his whole invent full of stacks of blaze rods and starts dropping them randomly, he could say, well, I farmed them. IM NOT SAYING HE IS ACTUALLY DOING THAT but what I'm saying is, that if he would do such a thing, noone would ever be able to get any proof, except for another admin. So please, please, just stop with the proof argument. Clavus, I'd rather that you say, stop complaining but we believe corby and we don't believe you. That would be a lot more honest. On one hand i can relate to Clavus and Darkstar, because finding a guy who handles admin responsibility [relatively] good is hard to find. They probably also know corby for a long while, from other games in L4G, which makes it even harder to suspect their friend of doing anything bad. Admins who fully abuse their power are easy to detect; admins who only do it once so often and in a manner that can't be logged, is pretty much impossible to detect. So it will always be our word against corby's, and the only ones who can change anything about it is either corby or the rest of the admins. The only thing we can do is try to bring it under their attention without giving them the idea that we're angry little fags that vent their frustration by accusing an innocent admin. There are always unreasonable players who will do anything to get rid of their anger, but there are also ALWAYS people in positions that abuse their power, even if this admin didn't intent to do it when he was assigned to the position. A game like PVP minecraft can bring about a lot of emotion, and under the stress of emotion most people would crack and abuse powers. That's why in almost every server of almost every game, especially freeroam, mmo pvp games, admins cannot ever become players, and if they do want to play, they switch account. So it narrows down to 2 options. Or all admins are admins like darkstar, or Clavus. Impartial, 'on the seat of the gods', so an admin faction who doesnt raid [which is the best option] Or option 2, which means leave things as it is, and get reports like these every other day. I guess it comes down to corby, a choice motivated by self-interest, or a mature choice that acknowledges that with a function like admin, which comes with powers and responsiblity, and most of all impartiality, you cannot be in a player's faction, and certainly not participate so passionately and aggressivly as corby does in Rangers. That'll be all.

It's been a while since I developed my aversion to Dr. Anal. But this has nothing to do with why I don't like his claiming ideas.

How about you actually contribute something? We are here to discuss how to make faction wars better. I don't like Drainal either but you have to admit that he has a point. On-topic Agreed. We should have free claiming, but I think we still need the 3 persons in a faction rule. Randomly claimed chunks never actually bothered me. Listen bro, sure I want to contribute, I actually recommended a few plugins, and if would agree with drainal, then i would express that. But in this case, I think its a bunch of whiney bs. Three people to start a faction? Great, I hated those times when every random guy could make a faction out of nowhere, this encourages mindless faction creating. Random chunks? No problem, I actually like it. You can make outposts except one big HQ [although you could bypass this in the past by unclaiming the chunks leading to your second location.] So actually, I did contribute my opinion, I do want to make faction wars better. But apperently so I did it in a matter that isn't to your liking. Well, I thought a crying baby would make my point obvious. If you have questions as to which led me to this conclusion, you're always free to ask. But deleting my post [whoever did it] just because you don't like me or my friends is a bit blatant. Can someone point me to the forum rule that forbids me to express my opinion via pictures? Or perhaps a rule that requires to type a minimal amount of symbols in order to not get it removed? Thanks.

i also ran a small pvp server for a short time and i also used CombatTag plugin at that time. that was probably an older version of it, but i recall that my combattag did this, if you are within a certain distance of someone you can't teleport [same as in this server] but if you tried to log out next to someone after being hit/tagged, a split second before you actually quit/logged out you would die instantly and drop all items, then quit client/log out. thats the best way to punish it if you ask me.

For some reason I think you are trolling now, and were serious before. I honestly think you are the one who's taking this too serious. (No-one will beat Drainal tho) ^ That. the only time i was serious is when i told awesomeo that i was trolling and making enemies to make the game more interesting, if i want no resistance id go singleplayer. also that we [the faction] just started yesterday really, and that he shouldnt expect much of a fight yet since we have little to no resources. i mean i was on the days before, but alone, and doing nothing but building that tower a bit. we found our first diamonds yesterday, and have been mining a lot today, plus repairing the base ^^ other than that its just mindless trolling and foulmouthing. nothing more ^^

well hes right about me being a hypocrit, but i think he also takes this a bit too serious ^^ rly im just trollin, its a game, who cares just chill out

anyways, whats up gaiz?

omg u all got me.. youre so right ^^ lol

1. internet tough guy 604 up, 49 down Someone filled with anger who never had the chance to throw it back on others because he or she is physically inferior. A.K.A. The result of having been bullied at school as a young child, or simply the result of all IDIOTS out there who are so immature spiritually that they can't bare having the truth said to their faces. These people usually frequent chat rooms and online forums for the sole purpose of shit talking and gloating to complete strangers to fill the void in their life, something that dosen't impress someone in the REAL WORLD. They also like to troll areas in chat and games, so they can compete with other lifeless internet whores for the sole purpose of determining who is the biggest nerd of them all. These people talk about how much ass they kick and how they could take on the world single handedly, when in reality, quiver at such ideas of someone who dosen't like them finding them in their parents basement where they thought they were safe. Internet Tough Guys should be regarded as the lowest form of life on Earth. 99% of the time they are liars, who will make completely bogus claims of being 7 feet tall, 400 pounds of pure muscle, and bench 7000. Also probably bragging about how good he is in a game and how many items or skill he has. In truth internet tough guys are rather sad individuals with little or no dignity or charm.
