Most of those comments are made with a hefty dose of salt. I am not eating oversalted food, I send it back.

Like I said;
It would be far more useful if there was a more schematic approach, with a list of measurable things, such as Responsive squad leaders in the team. 7/9.
How fast did the admin respond to you. 10 seconds, 10 min.
Amount of ticket the round ended with.
Amount of players playing the objective.
Amount of players not in squads.
I rarely see anything else than people preferring one server over another since they want the other server literally to die. This seems to be quite a recurring issue.

Just now in FCV we played Falklands and half of the Argentinian squad leaders didn't have a mic, there were 2 CAS squads for at least half the round, many of the team were either at Main or screwing around somewhere else. There were 3 admins yet no action. If I recall correctly the battle ended undecisive.

The admins probably ran next due to the shit experience and since they probably found it overwhelming to deal with what you describe.

I might blacklist falklands. But I have to ask my admin team for their side of the story.

Thanks for sharing FlyingR

I understand, but it's not the map's fault, Falklands is actually great! Always have great rounds in that map.

There was actually a similar problem very early this morning like 8-9 am EST, where I played Burning Sands as the Brits and the enemy capped every flag and the whole team was at main screwing around, many people just left the game including myself and there was no admin at all.

I posted this incident in the FCV Discord server.

Good luck!

He'll kick you from the server if he THINKS you'll be a lonewolf. Seems like a reasonable admin.... right?

And to be clear, it's the admin abuse I'm pointing out, not the relevance of sniper kits.
Believe me, few people will sympathize with you and most would've kicked you. When some unresponsive, lonewolfing player takes a sniper kit without asking his SL for permission. It's stupid.
Had you had any intention of actively supporting your squad with that sniper-kit, you would've asked your SL for permission first. Communication is everything in this game.

You were right, wicca:

It seems that there's nothing I can do about your admin abuse.
I was naive to think that calling you out in public might make you act like an adult... I was wrong.

BUT,
You can talk about whats 'best for the community' all you want, abusing the player base makes you a hypocrite. Frankly, I find it disgusting.

R1ghty just play on another server, or open your own. That's what we did, its not like its a big deal. We opened our own server specifically so we could enforce our own rules, and our own preferred play styles. Chill.

you actually thought that bashing someone on a public forum was going to get him to act differently towards you instead of contacting him in private and have a discussion?

My feedback is, thats not how you go about it. :roll:

Yes, Instead of publicly sorting issues. Go privately so you can be censored and ignored.

Quality strategy deployed by multiple terribly managed and operated communities within PR. It becomes really easy to for admins to justify admin abuse when your rules allow such. Its hard to put faith in admins who have no accountability.


Much like the otherday, When I wrote in allchat "Strike number 4" when talking about the spam of allchat. And being kicked by admin for "Not being a ****" nobody was getting kick for chat

It's clear that FCV got is reputation for a reason. When a admin kicked by 2 admins for admin abuse and breaking the rules.

Instead of that admin being punished for his abuse, nothing is happening that admin just keep saying its a mistake as a excuse . But its fine that admins be banning and kicking other admins. Shows strong leadership and a solid ruleset.
I've played on FCV for years now. I've seen the same admin make multiple mistakes to the extent of being kicked by 2 other admins. And the only punnishment given out was perm banning one of the admins who kicked the abusing admin and wanted to punish the admin making the mistake

I don't think bullying administrators is a very ok thing to do. Therefore you along with a few of your friends have been banned from our server. If you want to appeal feel free to go to our forum and appeal there. https://forum.bluedrake42.com/index.php ... an-appeal/

The forum is open to the public to read yours and my own response, which hopefully will make you feel better so you don't feel censored when you are attempting to be unbanned. However knowing your clan I don't really think you want to be unbanned, and you are only looking for problems to point out on our server and perpetuate so you can turn to your friends and say "hah, I knew that server was shit."

You have really no interest in improving the server with your feedback, but instead your aim is to create situations to point out so you can tarnish our name, both in private and in public as you are doing now.

Which really prompts me to not care for your statements in this thread.

Now if you genuinely want to get a fair trial on this, and you do have the best interest of the server in mind I will definitely hear you out.

Thank you!

Actually he kept names out, but how can you deduce this from his reply (I'll just assume you know him outside forums)? It seems you have a bad apple and while this is not the place to discuss ban appeals it IS a place to discuss issues with admin team and how they handle issues on the server. It actually is feedback.

If someone besmirches your name publicly it might be wise to take off the tinfoil hat and possible admit fault and work on it so the pubbers can see you are making an effort to correct the issue(s) at hand.

Little squid already resigned after bluedrake was recorded by m42zwilling, a developer of this community btw, stating that he did not like little squid.

Similarly FFG has been banned before from our server, for berating admins, yelling at them, not following admin orders etc.

Further, no report was given to me in a proper setting or with any fault of the said admin to give me any reason to doubt him.
And if he was at mistake, he would tell me and apologize. Which he would even do in a public domain to the people he wronged.

This is an issue with TZ and Zwilling and FFG, not with our admin team. They have proven time and time again that they are unable to behave or follow directions on our servers with our admins. They will stay out. And that is how I chose to deal with it.

A few months ago i was kicked by both squid and wicca in the same day for "sarcasm" At the time FCV had a discord channel for reports. I am not sure what happened with squid but with wicca I do remember the circumstances. I had not played on FCV in the while so I had not known there was a map list. I asked if there would be a mapvote and wicca told me there was a map list to which I replied "rip". I was then instantly kicked for "sarcasm" I reported the indecent there and the only person to reply was wicca. I asked him if it was proper for the admin who was being reported to be the one to handle the report. I have included a screenshot from wicca and I's PMs. Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet
