Why was I banned from the TF2 server?

mastr wizrd · 2010-07-13, 9:58 AM

I played there a few times and it was pretty fun and then a few days ago I tried playing there and it turns out I'm banned. I didn't receive any warnings while playing or kicked then banned it happened while I was already off the sever. If I recall correctly the server has disclaimers all over it saying it's offensive and whatnot so I don't think I got banned for saying anything too naughty.

I'm not especially great at TF2 but I would say I'm above most people due to the sheer amount of hours I've dumped into the game, so I guess it may be possible someone saw some of my skill and thought I was hacking or something....but they didn't have the stones to ban me while I was online....but I assure you I don't cheat in any games and definitely would not do that in my most played game of all time.

If this isn't appropriate for discussion in the public forum I'd appreciate the name of the person in charge of the TF2 server or a PM of what I did to get banned.

They're gonna need to know your handle at least and SteamID preferably to be able to answer that several days after the fact.

Tortuga Mañana · 2010-07-13, 10:00 AM

If you provide your steamID and steam name then that might help. Otherwise I have no idea who you are.

This is probably not the case.

Dumbass McBootarse · 2010-07-13, 10:01 AM

did you have a racist/sexist slur in your name, or say it in chat?

Jam Handy · 2010-07-13, 10:02 AM

it was me. i saw how amazingly good you were and I was jealous so i banned you.

I would have posted this thread sooner but it took quite a few days for this account to be activated. My handle at the time was either the same as this forum account "mastr wizrd" or it may have been "master wizard"

You said it yourself...you're too good for us. For the sake of us plebeians, leave us behind, happier for our ignorance, not knowing that there's a better life out there, waiting for us if only we rise up to the greatness you could show us. No...no...don't stay behind. We'd only limit you. Go on, for the sake of us all.

You were a bigot. Pretty sure you got banned for saying F*g, though I can't remember specifics with 100% accuracy. I banned you on June 19th, I believe. I don't think I have the logs back that far.

Cussing is all fine and dandy. Bigotry (anti-race, anti-gender, anti-sexuality, etc) is not. Doesn't help that you'd been trolling me earlier in the day, either.

Oh yeah I think I remember that now. I believe I called some huntsman user a faggot.

does banning someone erase them from the stats page? I'm trying to confirm if his skill was too great.

Terrible as the huntsman is, I'd definitely ban you for saying the last half, so yeah. Any other questions?

watch out this guy is dangerous. Do you have big enough stones to ban him in broad daylight? DO YOU?

I'm sorry you got banned for a poorly executed, but possibly accurate statement.

ok but I think I just referred to him as "huntsmanfag". you know how the internet is with it's fancy lingo and you just throw fag on the end of something

I Choose Shorts · 2010-07-13, 10:10 AM

He was just... too... good...

Oh, and for the record, I'm pretty certain I banned you while you were online, right after the word. Mainly because it's about 5 extra commands for me to ban someone after they've left the server and I'm fairly certain I was too lazy that day to do that.

Yes, and I ban people for it. End of story.
