Action: Report Abuse

Statement: Some people in the 1.6 server (including at least one admin) have changed their names to the complete url of known hacking and griefing websites. I don’t think that is such a good idea to be advertising hack websites on the server.

What website? We check the logs/stats and find out who for you

That was my guess.

i searched (www.) and (.com) and did not see anything crazy?

names would be helpful (if you wanna remain annon, just make another request so we can investigate

myg0t use to be a hacking clan yes . But . there isnt really anything wrong with using a tag like that if it just says myg0t it may not be liked but it’s not breaking any kind of rule its not racial or sexist or anything else its just a harmless name .

it reflects poorly on our server and organization

if i were to join a random server and half the ppl in their have myg0t tags on i would not be sticking around. If they dont hack, they are supporting a hacking community,, i would not be sticking around long nuff to find out, and many proactive gamers feel this way.

It’s better to nip it in the bud early before someone that’s legitimately from those websites comes in and we don’t catch them because this is going on.

If someone has a website that adverts anything other than our own website feel free to ban.

So if I go in there with the name Derrick @ simpweb.com you’re gonna ban me? Better not….

I think you need to clarify this. Some people use their site as their clan tags. For example me, when I play CS, I use:

“Mista @ http://www.HonorSoldiers.com” I don’t expect to be banned for tagging up. If I do I’m gonna be super *edited*ed.

Or what?

You know that we don’t appreciate advertising beyond our own community. Even with the tag you said you wear in CS16, by wearing it in our server you are directly advertising another clan’s servers. The only thing this can do is steal players from us so how would you expect us to tolerate it?

LOL THIS FROM THE GUY WEARING THE TAG FOR TAG LOLOL

Wearing a clan tag is not the same as having a website in your name. Put TAG in google and try to find my clan’s website, you won’t.

You better not because….It wasn’t a rule when I started, and I wasn’t aware it was a rule now. Nobody has ever had a problem with it, nor has it caused any confusion. Everybody KNOWS who’s server it is. I think this rule should be re-thought, at least for certain people. God knows if Adambomb went into CS with the name “Adam @ http://www.SimpWeb.com”, the admin who bans him would have HELL to pay. Considering my history and time spent with this great club, I feel it should be overlooked, at least for me. If it makes you feel any better, I’m the only member of my clan who plays CS at all. You’ll never see 10 guys in the server with that tag on, JUST ME. We mainly stick to CoD/Wolfenstein. The only thing remotely close to CS we play is L4D and Garry’s Mod (which is expensive to run a server for).

So we should make an exception for you and not for myg0t? I don’t play that game and I’m really surprised that given your history with the club that you would ask for such a rule exception. You know full well that once I allow one organization an exception to the rule that I’ll have to let others, up to and including myg0t to do the same. It’s called being fair and I try to do that as much as I can.

If you came with advertising one of our sponsors, that’s a completely different scenario. Advertising simpweb wouldn’t be a problem. However, just because you are a simpweb employee doesn’t mean you can use that status to bypass the rules and advertise for someone who runs servers in competition to our own. If Adambomb came in a server and was advertising myg0t he would get banned and the admin who did it probably wouldn’t be reprimanded at all.

We really appreciate the amount of time you’ve been here and the work you’ve done to help better the club but we cannot use that as a basis for turning our backs on policy violations. If that was the case Kuros could permaban everyone in the Source server and I’d have to let it slide.

I was under the impression we were supposed to warn then ban people for advertising anything in the servers and until im told otherwise thats what I will do. Its what all the admins should do and no they should not make an exception just for you because then everyone is gonna want one.

I don’t think it’s fair, at all, to even compare me to myg0t. Thats blasphemous.

You’re not getting it. I don’t run servers in competition of your own. The one server I do run that you ALSO run is L4D, and its passworded and private.

As far as I know, using my site address as my tag isn’t a violation anyway, since we have no servers in common, therefore nothing to advertise.

Also, I’m not a simpweb employee. I’m co-owner.

But enough about this. I may or may not continue to wear my tag, we’ll see, but I don’t want this escalating into more than it has to be.

In the interest of respect for the club, I will not be displaying any more website addresses in my name. <3

That took far too long and far too much arguing for you to say.

Clearly you don’t respect the club too much.

Clearly you should shut the *edited* up. Alot went on behind the scenes (ala: AIM conversations with MasterP) for me to come to that decision. Arguing and respect are 2 different things, they do NOT intertwine. Everybody here KNOWS i respect the club. As much as I respected my parents (Respected, past tense, but thats another story) growing up, I argued with them. As much as I respect my girlfriend, I argue with her. I still believe what I said was right, so on that note, *edited* yourself with a machete.

 

OH, no offense, of course.

If you talk back and drag it on there is a clearly a lack of respect. Especially if you do it where everyone can see it.
