NotTomPetty 3 #1 Posted June 15, 2013 I don't understand why no one will talk to me about this. This is the first time I checked this since I posted. I have tried to contact both ProLoser and Cactus on Steam, but both of them blocked me since I was "unanimously" kicked from Lotus. (if unanimously means less than %25 of the clan vote). Guess who set the parameters on the final vote? HINT: it wasn't the majority of the people who voted. So Pro's evidence is a picture of himself that he posted to the recruit lounge? Wow. What a violation of privacy! I wonder if my IP address was posted in the recruit lounge? Oh, it was? By ProLoser? Why? Because ProLoser decided it was somehow evidence against me? Yep. That happened. Think for yourself. This is clearly a personal vendetta. Once I was "voted out," my forum profile was banned. "Why?" you may ask yourself. "You probably posted a bunch of bullshit!!!!11" Nope. No reason, no rhyme, no warning, no nothing. I talked to Se7en about my account being banned because I wanted to post an innocent trade thread. He assured me that it was ridiculous and it was just best to post. I decided to first ask for permission (even though that was giving this dickhead too much room). Guess how that worked out... IP banned! SURPRISE! MORAL OF THE STORY: A few staff members had all of my information and abused the privilege. ProLoser also lied to Mana by telling him that he somehow "warned" me for all of the "bad things" I was doing to the clan. And as for the other questions - I don't want to be in your silly video game clan, I just want to play on the servers that got me into TF2 to begin with. The servers I donated to. The servers I administrated. No one ever complained about my behavior on any server. I was an admin before Pro and Cactus. However, these socially inept, aspergers patients don't understand empathy. I'll check back on this in a few weeks. If anyone is inclined to see how much grace and precision Cactus and Pro used to "kick me" I'm willing to post the last conversations I had with either of them. Make note of the word CONVERSATION.

Ruby 9,039 #2 Posted June 15, 2013 Wow. What a violation of privacy! I wonder if my IP address was posted in the recruit lounge? Oh, it was? By ProLoser? Why? Because ProLoser decided it was somehow evidence against me? Yep. That happened. Your IP address is not personal information because by using it, you're not able to see who the person behind it is. Any person who knows anything about the internet will be able to confirm that. Restarting router = OP. This is clearly a personal vendetta. Once I was "voted out," my forum profile was banned. "Why?" you may ask yourself. "You probably posted a bunch of bullshit!!!!11" Nope. No reason, no rhyme, no warning, no nothing. I talked to Se7en about my account being banned because I wanted to post an innocent trade thread.My best guess is that your forum profile was b& due to how much grief you caused to some people here, which led up to several recruits leaving the clan. IMHO that is enough reasons to ban someone. There is a fuckton of places where you can post a trade thread, I do not understand why would you want to post a trade thread on the forums of the clan whose staff members and recruits you've insulted and which you've been kicked out off. MORAL OF THE STORY: A few staff members had all of my information and abused the privilege. ProLoser also lied to Mana by telling him that he somehow "warned" me for all of the "bad things" I was doing to the clan. Causing a few recruits to leave is a bad thing. The very post by one of our former recruits (currently in the recruit lounge, so linking it would be futile to you) should've been enough of a warning for any sane person. Sapienti sat. And as for the other questions - I don't want to be in your silly video game clan, I just want to play on the servers that got me into TF2 to begin with. The servers I donated to. The servers I administrated. No one ever complained about my behavior on any server. I was an admin before Pro and Cactus. However, these socially inept, aspergers patients don't understand empathy.I love it how you combine an unban REQUEST with insults to the only people who are actually able to fulfill your request. Not to mention you calling them "dickheads" a few paragraphs before. Being humble pays off. If you simply said "I'm sorry, I'd love to be back, I said some things that I am regretting", I bet my strange degreaser you wouldn't be shut down as you were. As a Lotus administrator I oppose this unban. This is, of course, just my opinion, however you don't deserve to come back to our servers if you're going to insult us, be it on the forums or on the servers. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghost_Jor 583 #3 Posted June 15, 2013 Well you've certianly made yourself sound like the victim here. The constant spam on the forums just throwing insulting Pro and Cactus has made it crystal clear that they are obviously evil masterminds trying to ruin everyone's life, and for some unknown reason don't seem to like you at all. I just can't think of any reason people wouldn't unban you. You've been such a nice person in these posts and if you were this nice in the clan, why the hell were you banned for? It's a mystery. If anything I respect Pro and Cactus more for having the patience to deal with this. Over. And over. And over... 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IceSage 58 #4 Posted June 15, 2013 I'm pretty sure this is a prime example of how NOT to get unbanned. Honestly, it may be too late now for you... But you should have just went silent for a couple months. Gave the servers a break, then came back with an apology and plead your case. Constantly whining on the forums doesn't get you unbanned. I can understand if there's a miscommunication or exaggeration somewhere along the lines. It happens. But... this? No. Just... no. I have yet to consider joining Lotus in any serious capacity so I don't know the details behind the scenes in the clan forums and what not, but even I can tell that there was some headache drama regarding your behavior. I probably shouldn't comment since I know so little about the situation, but I feel like I've been a part of it since it's the only thread I see on the forums almost EVERY SINGLE DAY. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

point 2,268 #6 Posted June 15, 2013 (edited) Pockets, when I first got to sorta know you, you seemed like an okay guy, and I respect your balls for posting what you have posted. But if you don't expect shit for badmouthing our Staff whom I hold in the highest regard then I don't know what you expected. Now, I don't know the truth behind the situation, maybe Pro did lie, maybe the Staff are completely corrupted. But on the other hand, maybe you're lying and bullshitting just as much if not more. As the situation stands, it's hard for us to create an incomplete picture, let alone a complete picture of what happened. I can understand wanting to go back to the servers where you began playing, but maybe it's time to let it go and move on. You can keep posting in the unban forum and you can keep getting ignored by the Staff. Or you can pick up your bags and start somewhere fresh. Maybe, you're right, maybe Pro completely hates you, and holds a vendetta against you. But even if he does, what are you going to get out of being unbanned? Our servers aren't that special (sorry but they aren't) and I'm sure you can live a very happy life with another group of people from the internet. I like you pockets. What I don't like is the way you've decided to tackle this situation. Where you were 3-4 months ago you had two choices. 1. Politely request your unban, and thank the Staff for giving you a second chance, and we could have all carried on living our happy lives. 2. Do what you did, and attack the people who have the power to unban you. While it might not be fun, we all have to learn to pick our battles and know when to stand down. This was a time you should have stood down. I have no less respect for you as a person than I do Staff or indeed Proloser. But acting like a child is not the way to get what you want. Hopefully, you can take what I have said into account and try again sometime in the future. Or if that doesn't work out for you, try and find some people who you can get along with well.

No longer a Sexy King:^) 5,592 #7 Posted June 15, 2013 I have tried to contact both ProLoser and Cactus on Steam, but both of them blocked me since I was "unanimously" kicked from Lotus. (if unanimously means less than %25 of the clan vote). There was a vote to re-admit you and hubris but you withdraw your return so i don't know why the hell you are complaining. 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
