*NwA* UK Reality (Europe)

[Orford]

I would just like to add that this is also done to let the other players know that the admins are aware of who has switched and to let them know that the admins are active and are aware. Please don't take it personally, we some times get accused of not watching what goes on so doing these warnings reassures them we are doing are job.

Also we do have a rule about clans team stacking I'm not aware of the situation at the time but if it was 30 v 30 and a lot of one team is made up of one clan, we would try to get them to split across both sides to keep the teams balanced. Latley the only time you see a lot of *NwA* on one side is when the other side is full of clan players or multiple clans who we know play well together. Please help with this and as soon as we can balance the teams so you can play as one clan we will. Max of 8 per clan unless we can balance the teams with other clans playing against each other, no one likes to be steam rolled by a team full of clan players v pubbers.

That's why you request was turned down. No, teams are balanced. Was the reply.

Vincent, are u kidding?

2 days ago me and my mate was playing on you server. On Burning Sands in small apc(you call it scimitar)
Only what we want - take small apc and patrool city. I asked admin in prmumble - it is enough to call our squad "APC" to take this little apc - he answer YES. All was perfect - we killed ~15 people, take first places.

Now today - we joined again, called squad APC(squad 1), take scimi. All was 1 hour ok(we killed 10 people and 1 BTR), untill someone at end of round create squad "SCIMI"(squad 6). Direct in this time my gunner disconnected, i drive into building to hide from havoc. I got warning for "Asset stealing", so ok, new admin, new rules. I asked "what i need to do". Anser was "go in apc, press W and go to base", ok, in 50 seconds i got shot from havoc and ban from admin for "SOLOYING, ASSET STEALING AND WASTING".
Are u kidding? Can you make same rules for all 7 days of week? And what was solution of this trouble? Teleport apc to base?

just to let u know scimitars are not apc s they do not carry personel only operators it is a small battle tank or (scout tank)

solution name ur squad correctly please and admins wont see different things at different times.

cheers

This. APC stands for "Armoured Personnel Carrier", but the Scimitar doesn't carry any personel. Ergo; it's not an APC. Name your squad "Scimitar" next time you decide to take the vehicle.

[therazer]

I am not telling about squad naming. I am telling about ban for "asset wasting" and suddenly "stealing" after 1 hour in this scimi.(btw 2 days before admin in mumble says that "it is ENOUGH to name it APC").
I can name squad how you want, but if something is wrong - say it at round start, not when i am near enemy tanks and under chopper with disconnected gunner.

This is not simple question about naming - btw english Warriors can be names as IFV or APC, but russian BMP are translated directly as IFV, but it is ok, when you name it as APC

On Kashan someone made an 'APC' squad and took a Bradley. The squad was full, and only one Bradley was being used. I couldn't take a Bradley after I asked.

So I made an IFV squad, which the Bradley's official designation is.

[Curry]

About INS:
Kokan and Basrah over and over again, but that belongs to NwA Had a really great round on Op.Archer today.

About AAS:
Any reason why the AAS server is crashing more often? Reaching an admin on the AAS server is terrible / impossible.

General:
Is it wanted that the !admin function is still not working?

cheers,
Curry.

[midget]

hey curry

at the min the !admin function only works for admins to see who else is on with rights and helps stop people ''bulling'' admins and alows us to read !r rarther then having some one screaming midget midget MIDGET!!!! if they want an admin lol

i know our seniors have been looking into the server issues as late but do not know of outcome so will let some 1 in the know to inform you

i have been working away from home past week mate so i have not been on to admin as u know i admin aas quite alot just not been near my pc and only had my lappy with me but 5fps isnt fun so stayed away


catch u all soon midget

BTW, on official pr manual you can find about tickets cost.

○ APC: 5 tickets
○ Tank or IFV: 10 tickets

So, Bradley cost 10 tickets - it is IFV

This is trouble about what is "correctly" named squad.

I think if 1st named squad is "APC" - this squad has priority. Everyone understand what we are talking about, if not - you can just ask in chat/mumble/voip.

Example: Kashan
You can create squad "JETS", and after 30 minutes someone create squad MIG29. And then someone create squad MIG29B(export mod of mig29)
Who has right? Everyone understand, that jets is enough, but in situation with APCS(or your scimi "RECON VEHICLE") it is not enough


P.S. My ban is already expired, we are talking now about "squad naming". Not about my ban

[KiloJules]

As I almost never take assets but often enough rely on transport OR fire-support I'd say it is important to name the squad correctly. Correctly as in APC for a vehicle that can transport me and my guys, JETS/CAS for any aircraft with big firepower (depending of map and layout it might be two different squads), IFV for a fire-support vehicle.

OC on a map like Silent Eagle with different types of APCs and IFVs it sure helps to be a bit more specific. Like "BMPs", "TOW-MTLB", "BTRs". Although these are still not the correct names really everyone with a little knowledge about the hardware knows what is meant.
Or is it supposed to be like that if you name the squad "APCs" or even "ARMOR" that you have the rights for all the different vehicles available? That would be strange as 6 people couldn't even man all of them.

Other than that I'd say it is good to let the WHOLE TEAM know when something like a disconnect happens (immediatly) as it helps everyone to understand why "this one guy is soloing this vehicle" or why he might loose it on his way back home...

To sum it up:

In general, I think when you are as specific as the markers are, you are good enough.

As our rules state you can have the scimitair with a apc squad as long no-one has created a Scimitair/IFV squad. If you have a APC squad all the APC's fall under your squad. The Scimitair is not a APC so it cannot be claimed by the APC squad. And for your TB, I have warned you 5 time with admins commands and in mumble, after the 5th warning you finally took a step out of the flag and got killed by a havoc. If you would have listened to the admin at the first warning this would not have happened.

In the future please take this kind of incidences to our forums please.

[therazer]

If ifs and ans were pots and pans...

There was no chance to survive. It was too hot. Scimi was already in building at 1st warning. You are not right - watch demo.

As our rules state you can have the scimitair with a apc squad as long no-one has created a Scimitair/IFV squad. If you have a APC squad all the APC's fall under your squad.

1) Scimi is not IFV. Are you kidding? Look in pr manual, what ifv is. It can be "recon vehicle" or "apc", or light tank (FV107 Scimitar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia). , but not IFV.
2)So. I will check this. I will create "Scimi" squad after someone already have "APC".

[Vincento94]

I am talking about the rule in general that covers IFV, APC and SCIMITAR.

It was only a temp ban, you should be unbanned by now and welcome to play on our servers again.

[zloyrash]

Here I am again.
I was banned with no reason on NWA since a year and half ago. First it was "ghostin" reason, then(after I post tons of words of explanations on your forums) it became "fishy shootin" reason. Then you just closed and deleted my thread.
NWA is a very popular server and now I just dont have a place to play. Should I leave PR now?

Sorry guys, but I think amateur admining is a very harmful for PR and community.

[IINoddyII]

Perhaps take it to PM's - bans shouldn't be discussed in the server feedback thread

Pro Tip - calling them amateur in an open forum prolly isn't the best way to win a reprieve.

[zloyrash]

That is the feedback
Btw, thx for the tip, but I am not very hopeful to be unbanned there. I visited nwa-forum a couple of months ago - answer NO again. Thread closed. And I still dont know the reason. Is it pro?

[pr|Zer0]

One of the reasons server's popular is the admin team. If answer is NO, they have a VERY good reason for that. Banning a player is taken VERY seriously. Like the guys before stated, take it to *NwA* Clan forums and try again. Also, you might want to change the attitude if you want to be listened.
Your ban will not be lifted by posting on PR forums, never happened, never will.
Good luck

I would like to see NwA enforcing mumble - just lastweek was another non mumble apc squad. it is quite useless while supporting groundtroops in firefights, since u cant give them enemy directions...

Can't enforce it untill there are proper admin tools for it. Manually checking simply takes too long and is way too inpracticle.

I would however still really love to see heavy asset squads being heavily encouraged if not enforced.
An isolated infantry squad can be annoying at most really, but vehicles not being on mumble severely cripples gameplay.

[Brainlaag]

How do other servers manage to do it and even the 128?

well, don't say you can't... i bet there are some servers out there which can do this

i mean, as an admin it is your job to administrate a server somehow.
of course you dont have to search a list for possible nonmumblers all the time while playing, what i am talking about is to check reports about nonmumblers and warn/kick them as soon as you notice them.

and with the time, players will get used to be on mumble and the administrate-effort will get lowered a lot .

just try it, it will get ya gameplay experience up
