Why is I********* and other abuse a-holes allowed to play?

[Morax]

I think with how harsh the mods are on speech in Aeolus the actual game violations are seeing no activity.

Explain to me why it gets so far up your arses (yes Mods, I'm asking that directly) and yet people who make a career of abusing game bugs/exploits *COUGH* I********* *COUGH* are not given strict punishments?

It's really annoying to see the level of team play get reduced to people like him, suiciders, "I don't care what the rest of my team is doing"-ers, and the ever-so-prevalent Sim City lords who don't know what t1 or t2 units are.

It's probably not worth trying to argue since people are going to do what they like to do but I want to try at least.

It's really easy. We see the chat in #aeolus. I have it always open at my 2. screen but we don't see the games. To say nothing will happen without a report.
For example, it's the first time i heard about "I*********".

Please explain the proper process and I'll accumulate the names of people offended by him and the STACK of games that show this behavior.

I feel as if the mods in place don't care about the game so much as they care about having a fun place to chat. How often do you, Com, and etc even play the game anymore? People with powers but no passion for the game seem kind of questionable to me.

The people know us. To say no one will flame when we are in the same game. Furthermore we have the rule that we aren't going in action if we are involed. To say it doesn't matter if we play the game or not.

That didn't answer my question at all; I asked: Where and how do I report this stuff?

Also, what do you mean "we have a rule." Where are these rules?

Where and how do I report this stuff?

Write a private message to the irc moderator group here at the forum. It would be nice if you add a screenshot or the replay id.

Also, what do you mean "we have a rule." Where are these rules?

for example:
A judge isn't allowed to impose an opinion if he is personal involed. Let's say someone from his family has violated the law. I think all can understand this. And it's the same when we are playing a game. That is something we don't have to write on a sheet of paper, just humand mind.

What specific behaviors do you consider abusive/exploitive. I know one of them is the drone thing but what others? Playing poorly or doing the same thing over and over again is just noob, not bannable.

I suppose this make sense in real life, Voodoo, but the actions people take in a PC game are logged and can be reviewed. In the actual court of law cases come up with family/corporations/events/and/or/interactions and etc where it's "his/her word against his/her's" and finding the appropriate stories is oft quite difficult.

Here in FaF if someone uses an abusive tactic and an admin/moderator is in the game it shouldn't matter. I find your logic flawed here and hopefully you can understand why. Others in the moderation staff and trusted members of the community (e.g.: speed2) can weigh in on the severity.

Thank you for providing the proper method on how to report an abusive tactic/exploit.

Now, can we get that somewhere very public where people can see how to do this?

Thanks again. I know your job is difficult but I assure you I'm only trying to do good here.

If a player trolls and you lose because of him, you are angry and it is possible that you are overreacting.

So you say it would be nice to open a thread with: Pm a moderator or the whole group if you want to report someone?
I really think all users know what to do in such a situation.

[Morax]

Okay that makes sense, thanks for the clarification. I kind of figured that people would review after the game rather react immediately.

I don't go to that level usually, Voodoo, so I didn't know. Just fed up with a lot of people lately.
