TriKyTriXx 1 #1 Posted September 16, 2014 Certain players do not like me because I beat them in a duel and I refuse a rematch. I am getting vote banned for this reason. I would like to know what can I do to stop the vote abuse? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luop90 4,400 #2 Posted September 16, 2014 Server info / Player names and Steam IDs / Time banned /etc... If there's ever vote abuse, type !calladmin to notify an admin immediately. If one doesn't respond (we're usually quite fast when we're online), type "status" in console, come to the forums, and paste everything in here, and include any additional details. It will be handled by one of Lotus' admins/staff from there 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would like to know what can I do to stop the vote abuse? What Luop said. Also, bring plenty of evidence next time. Your word alone will not do. That being said, perhaps a change in your attitude will help if you feel you're being targeted by votes. Being a regular on the server, you're quite arrogant when it comes to duels, as well as abusive language-wise. A bit of sportsmanship and less harsh words will go a long way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Se7en 10,762 #7 Posted September 16, 2014 If I win 5-0, that doesn't mean I get 1 kill and sit in respawn. Well, let me rephrase. You either play engineer, build a sentry and stick to inside your spawn or you play demoman with Scottish resistance, multi-sticky traps and sit on spawn door (which in the end is "legit" playing). I've seen you do this on more than one occasion. Aside from that, I don't know how you are still roaming these servers, you've been banned for racism/discrimination on a shitload of other communities servers.

fever 9,884 #8 Posted September 16, 2014 If you're being voted off the server maybe think if you're winding people up with your behaviour. If you're not and you cannot stay on the server without being kicked then goto another server and just !calladmin, add an "L" as a friend (most of them are admits or can get one for you) or as Luop said post details here by typing status in console and getting screen shots of the abuse and the console. Just remember though if you're being disruptive on the server you might be the one being given a ban, and it will probably be longer than 30 minutes 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While I agree that it's a wonder he's still on the server, I can attest for his behavior while I'm there. He keeps most of the abuse to himself while I'm on the server, and when I'm not, we have situations like this. He receives the voteban/kicks that he seemingly deserves from the players there because of his actions. We can't ban him for behavior on other servers by assuming he does the same on ours. tl;dr He behaves when being watched, gets votebanned when not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minia 1,211 #13 Posted September 16, 2014 I'm just going to say what I can clearly see from reading these posts, although I agree, none of the attitude claimed here is a ban able offense. It is how Triky said, it will keep happening now, in the past and in the future. It sounds to me though that it will keep happening because some people do not seem to like your attitude, we all know the "common 12 year old" who will continually taunt and disrupt the server whether by abusive language or a severe, competitive attitude. This is an attitude that will have to change on your behalf at some point, I'm hoping that it will be very soon otherwise I am sure we will meet again. I suggest we do not punish these abusive donors if they are kicking due to Triky's abusive language as it shows the majority agreed and no one wants a disturbing player ruining the game. However if it is due to his "skill" then they should be taught to simply let go of it and possibly move to another server or they will be punished. I right now believe we have a problem on both sides of this argument. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Se7en 10,762 #14 Posted September 16, 2014 trying what? to enforce Lotus standards on Lotus servers? yes I amIf you can submit proof of that happening on Lotus servers, we'll look into it. You know full well what you are doing, and you know the reasons as well. Standards? Talk about double standards... Ahhhh, the proof, well I'm sure if this was an actual ban request for Trix to begin with I could get you some proof, but the matter at hand is another one, he feels people are abusing voteban against him, because he is always winning his duels, when in fact he's probably getting votebans because besides the way he plays during the duel he constantly shit talks his opponents in order to provoke them, make them (come at him) and easily win. Seeing how he is a regular on one of your servers it's only natural that sooner or later people will get tired of your shit and try to get rid of you. You'll get all the proof in the world by just doing a simple Google search, but I guess, right now that's not the priority. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nano 7,892 #18 Posted September 17, 2014 To answer op, you can stop getting votebanned by not antagonizing other players. No lotus admin is going to stop players from removing a player who is harassing them. /thread. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
