I got temp-banned for "ignoring warnings to shut." I didn't see the warnings, but don't know what I did that would have warranted them...
The background to this is that Half-Duplex was on my team, talking a lot of trash in general and provoking many people to start vote-kicks against him. What I was saying was stuff like: "Congratulations, you have now made yourself feel better about yourself by talking shit on the internet."
Then Insomnia Princess said she was going to kick people for vote-kick abuse -- For starting vote-kicks against Half-Duplex.
Then I got kicked, about 10 mins later, after I made the following statement, which was a twisting of Half-Duplex's words: "Did you just say that you would not touch Insomnia Princess with a 20 ft. pole? Since when did you talk shit to admins."
OK but look I don't really care about getting kicked from a TF2 server has I can go find others to regular. But I thought I had found a good place to play with a good community of players. Does this demolish that opinion?
If I had a server I'd want to feel free to run it any way I want to, but I wouldn't kick-ban players because of the things that I said. Especially if I had a community of players establishing on my servers, I'd try to have a more "rule of law" approach than "kick anyone I don't like" or "kick anyone who talks trash to Half-Duplex."
When I got kicked, people in chat were complaining that the admin would kick people who talked shit to Half-Duplex, but not kick Half-Duplex for talking shit... Really...?
Is this how this server is to be run? I mean I'd want to keep playing here but not if this is typical.
