late last night me and a few (max of 6) people were playing humbly around 1 am - 2 am cst. then the map was dark carnival and some more people joined, as did an admin. i shot the gnome down from the billboard and starting tossing it down the road with me. i did not forget about my team mates though! the admin told me to stop carrying the gnome even though i wasn't holding on to the gnome for more then 2 seconds. he said "stop carrying the gnome, manz. this is a versus server. if you're carrying the gnome you can not be shooting people." i am sure these were his exact words, and if not they are extremely close. i told him "i know this is a versus server, dude. i read the title when i clicked on it. besides i am leading the team in special infected kills and points." by this i didn't mean any harm, i just wanted him to understand i wasn't lollygagging around. i do help my team when someone needs help and i kill any special infected i see. by the time we made it to the second bridge of the highway i stopped touching the gnome completely.
skipping forward some, because this most likely is another contribute to the ban. third section of dark carnival i said somebody was stupid. i say he is stupid because i have him 28 points and told him multiple times (can't even remember the vast amount of times) how to full heal yourself. he died and i said he was stupid. the admin gave me a warning and i asked him "seriously? a warning?" he replied with "do not call your team mates stupid, manz." i then said "sorry for stating facts." it was something around those lines. i then left the server after a few additional minutes later.
the ban reason is "Asked him repeatedly to stop escorting gnome and play the game. Kept arguing and mocked me. Post to forums if you want to play." and, i do have to say that is wrong. never once did i mock this admin or continued to touch the gnome.
now i am sure the whole ordeal with the warning he gave me for calling someone stupid was around the lines of an argument. but, i do not believe this is worth a permanent ban. i do not mean to sound arrogant but i am no where near dead weight on a team. i try my hardest to be as helpful as possible to the team. even as i was tossing the gnome ahead i would check on my team mates, and kill special infected as they came towards us. now i my have been rude, but i wasn't vulgar in any way.
if i left any other section of this story out i am sorry. i have had a few really long nights in a row. school work is a drag.
thanks for reading this long appeal.
