Well, this should be a discussion......
Anyway, I would have banned you also, as I've no clue who {FU} is.
Tone down the attitude and stick around for the chat here.
Also, this is your first post here. So, I'm doubting it has been discussed much among members here. I'm guessing very few board members even know of this. If you could let us know where the discussions occurred that would help.

Unbanned. Keep it clean.

Just for the record, another victim of the infamous nub admin:
L0624007.log(181): L 06/24/2006 - 01:45:26: "0<668><STEAM_0:0:2042226><>" entered the gameL0624007.log(182): L 06/24/2006 - 01:45:26: Banid: "0<668><STEAM_0:0:2042226><>" was kicked and banned "permanently" by "Console"
L0624007.log(183): L 06/24/2006 - 01:45:26: "0<668><STEAM_0:0:2042226><Unassigned>" disconnected (reason "Kicked and banned")
One thing you'll HAVE to remember, someone among our group is highly offended by the "0" name, so much so, that you are auto-banned for it. No questions, no nothing. Just banned. The authorities are still seeking out this rogue.
Anyway, same thing happened here to a regular: http://www.gamrs.co/forums/in...ndpost&p=344331
I'll be unbanning you shortly.

You catching those crappies on minnows?
I took my son to the store today to buy his first fishing gear, a spider man rod and reel set. Casts fairly well for a kids set, although he hooked his neck trying to do it himself (he's about to turn 3 y.o. and somehow reeled it in and tried to cast before my wife or I caught him). He got some bites on the power bait chucks we were using, but didn't quit get the concept of waiting to reel them in.

You're unbanned now.
Slim, I pm'ed you with the proper syntax also.

My guess is that it was the battery. They use lithium cells, just like all other laptop manufacturers. The battery prolly had a short circuit, or was accidentally shorted at some point, or just overheated at some point (which changes the chemical makeup inside the battery, leading to an eventual failure).
Here's a video of a purposely ignited lithium polymer battery: http://rchomepage.com/~dna/LipoFire.wmv
There are some differences with lithium ion, which is used in laptops, but it's my understanding that misuse/mischarging has the same result.
I use lithium polymer batteries in my planes and heli. They are always charged in fireproof boxes and with safety devices due to the potential to explode.

This is an example of what happens when one person starts saying things like this, then the slippery slope. Here're the logs on it so that you can see what I'm talking about:

I disagree with it being "dumb" just b/c of the above example. Kinda a "one thing leads to another" scenario. What honks me is to have someone come in as you were before trying to justify it.
BTW, this used to be in the filter. It was removed not b/c it's accepted, but for some other reason, I forget.
Anyway, the ban is being lifted b/c I think you get it, and I'm not gonna hold a ban over your head b/c your pride won't bring you to apologize. Please keep it clean and low-attitude in the future.
-
Yeah, what Lunk said, sounds like a bad kick.
-
Ok, I've looked at the logs on this. You weren't the only one kicked in this particular instance.
When you started off with your comment, then several others chimed in along the same lines. Basically, it started the chat going the wrong way. Someone else was kicked for the same thing before you. Bothrops was only trying to get it back up to par with his admin says.
So the situation that he had before him was several people breaking the rules. He kicked another person and you. The other person came back to play just fine it appears. You came back and continued giving him attitude with the "grow up" comment again. He banned you.
I don't get where you think that he abused his powers. Was he to simply take it? Please explain.

Blind darts!!!!
I may be interested.

It honestly should have been a permanent ban in the first place. Admins are there to play the game and have fun also, they should not have to explain why they are asking you not to do something. That is what the forums are for.
Now, as to your last post in the other thread, you essentially were trying to justify telling the admin to grow up, and further commented how it was childish and ridiculous. That's doing nothing but going in the wrong direction. Bothrops summed it up quite nicely I think when he said "You completely accept the gc rules, except when you don't feel like it."
The purpose of this forum is to make sure you understand what is expected. You can even debate the ban if you'd like. But coming in and saying it's childish, ridiculous, grow up isn't debating; it's just name calling. For an example, I think simkiller constructively brought up some valid points in that last thread. Whether they are right or not is open for discussion, but he did it properly.
I honestly doubt you can come up with any sensible justification that would change not allowing the use of that word or arguing with admins in server. You can try if you'd like. For now, you should be apologizing to the admin for telling him to grow up, and assuring that this won't happen again.
-
UPDATE: I got a pm from the banning admin that this was a temporary ban. I've converted it to a permanent ban. You do not tell an admin to grow up in server and argue the rules, then come here and try to justify it. It's simply not permitted.
-
You had to come back and post to get unbanned. We don't track these.
I'm sure Lunk will be along soon to do the honors.
-
Ivona, it's quite simple that that particular word is not acceptable. No matter how ridiculous you find it, or how childish you feel the admin is being by enforcing it.
You may try again later to be unbanned. But this is closed.
-
He was among the 6000+ that are from prior to 1/1/06. I'm not gonna dig up logs that old.
Have fun, you seem to know what we expect.
-
Unbanned. Looks like there was only a ban on Seattle.
Have fun and keep it clean!
-
If you're still wanting unbanned, you should state that.
These are clean, competitive servers. So long as you assure us you will not use that name, or a similarly offensive name, you'll be good to play here.
-
Looks to be a one day ban. Prolly for killing a hostie (a big no-no unless accidental), but could be for other reasons.
It'll expire tomorrow around the same time tho.

Wow, this takes me back. Just about 20 years ago I was playing with this kinda stuff for a science experiment. A simple direct current of electric (I was using a 9v battery) and a little sulfuric acid in the water (vinegar), and you can break water into hydrogen and oxygen. The gas will come off the leads in the water. Neat stuff. Always figured someone would be able to increase the efficiency of it somehow.

I use godaddy also. Got five different urls, 4 pointing to a single host, and one pointing to one of their free hosts. I was paying monthly for hosting and a dedicated IP. They've even called me a few times about things, just to see how I liked it. Last time they called I asked about paying for a year in advance and was offered some deal that saved me like $2/month, which brings my total for hosting to $5/month.
I got the following urls:
And this one on their free hosting (which is ad supported):
Gotta say it was very easy to set up and maintain, and they offer quite a few options for the money.

Hello there! Welcome!!
<puts arm around shoulder and walks monthos onto the car lot>
Well, you could buy this lovely reserve car, but let me walk you over to the admin car. It's got all the bells and whistles and is a REAL babe magnet. You'd be looking pretty suave driving around all the servers in it.
Price?? Oh don't worry about that. If you want it we'll send you down to Fatty in financing and he'll make sure you don't leave here (ever) without getting some sort of payment schedule it.
What was my payment? Um, well, mine was zero down with no interest for the rest of the day, balance due at the end of the day. But that was when rates were really high. But let's not focus on that...
Leave it to Duke to be drunk before noon.
<checks fatty's office for the missing liquor>Welcome Monthos!

how do you edit the auto kick?
Has to be done thru FTP, which LA's and board members have access to.
-
This is actually kinda funny. Here's what happened, I believe, and the reason for the "bad name".
Some nub admin set the server up to autoban anyone with the name "O". In autokickname.txt I found:
"0" b 0
Meaning the server is set to auto ban anyone with that specific name. Thankfully whoever did this didn't do a pname, or half the people joining coulda been banned.
Now who wants to step up and admit to this?
Banned
in Banned from any of our servers?
I'd like to leave this open in hopes the admin who put this setting into play steps up. Would be funny given that we now have 2 victims.
