funny, I just looking in gamespyarcade for sniperlust and noticed I'd 'red marked' it. My own little reminder never to go on that server again. Oddly it is the only NS server to have reached the 'red mark' status since I started playing ns. Not only that but it happened so long ago that I cant remember why but it would have had to have been a pretty bad server as I only drop/increase them 1 mark a game unless severly **** off starting from green so I must have had three bad games in a row with no good games for it to get to red!

I thought players like this were an exclusive feature only to Counter-Strike... best server IMHO is 66.28.23.73:27025 cuz the admins are cool as hell and you always get a good game there. Granted that I've almost never played anywhere else, I don't think servers can get much better then this one.

I was playing on Fists of Ra the other night playing marines, and we were losing pretty bad, they had fades in the base, etc. My brain is being retarded right now, so I can't think of the name of the map, but it's the one with the noname hive, and the main base has that cockpit area. Well you know how there's the bug in the map where sometimes marines will respawn out in space after a beacon? Well that happened to us, and this admin thought we did did some exploit to get out there, which makes me question how he got to be an admin, since it happens pretty often. But anyway, rather than f4, my whole team just started building stuff out there and having fun with it, and this guy get's REALLY **** off and starts going "Who was the comm that did that," "what exploit did you use," then "your wonid's are all logged, you will be banned." So that really **** me off, so I started yelling at the admin, admittedly not a good idea, but I was quite angry at him at the time. Then the aliens started using /unstuck to get through the glass, which **** me off even more, because we got out there by accident, and the aliens were using an exploit to get out, and of course the admin did nothing to them. So I made sure to point out to the admin the double standard, but he would have none of it and I got kicked. So while I agree I wasn't the politest I could be, he was still a jackass. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> A... A... AHAHAHAHAHA A bug?

You see the admin should be mature enough to be able to ignore this and perhaps consider why the player was so upset at his actions. Perhaps if the admin wasn't being a stupid jerk he could have explained why he did what he did. Now if the language used was against the rules of the server, unlike destroying the game it seems then a kick or slap with a warning would have been more than sufficient. Normally I would side with the admin in cases like this, but I have played on Sniperlust and the few records I keep tell me that the server sucks. The response we have seen here enforces my rather low opinion of the server and its admins.
If the player was banned for using the words stupid and jerk then all players who use those names directed towards any player should be banned. When the admin is playing he is just another player and should leave his admin hat off until the <b>need</b> for an admin arises. Admin is not a perk its a privaledge.
ah the rules... (all relating to CS, not a mention of NS)
So I guess the banning offense comes under the rule that you mustn't ask things like:- "admin why did you kick me, i wasnt doing anything"
other intersting rules/extracts:- "don't cause your team to lose on purpose" (like the admin did?) "if an admin tells you to do something, DO IT FAST" "if an admin tells you to stop doing something, STOP IMMEDIATELY" (.. I think I understand now) "pay attention to admin warnings - usually you will only get ONE " "admins will use a BAN FIRST, ASK QUESTIONS LATER " "if the admin didn't see it, too bad for you. "
and finally the best advice on the page:- " ...stay off the server "
Well I've never been banned from a server but tbh it might be worth getting banned from this one <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
i know most of them relate to cs but the main ones are in there
and i have never seen any admin on the server sell everything sometimes a admin has had to jump in the comm to try and rebuild after someone has sold and left it happens more than u think and then people blame the guy who was trying to rebuild
