AvIcAvIc 0 #1 Posted December 15, 2009 Hi guys, just a few hours ago I got votebanned because some guy initiated it because, and I quote, "awp is for noobs". He seemed to have a harder time with english, and i guess was mad because I awped him? I laughed initially, and then I guess he got someone else to voteban, and then the request came up. Of course, lots of people hit yes even though they didn't know why I was being banned. I got a good amount of no's, and 5 people asked why are we banning him, and then poof I got kicked. The guy that said I was a noob for awping was on top of CT, and I was either 2 or 3 down from top of T. My score was around 18-12. I have no problem with the banning system, I like having the community being able to ban aimbotters and wallers swiftly so they stop messing up the balance, but I think it was a bit ridiculous that people just hit yes even though they aren't sure why the ban is taking place. I hope someone here can vouch for me being ridiculously banned, hopefully someone was in the server at the time. I like it because I play late at night and in the mornings and it seemed to have a good steady population around those times. I was definitely not cheating in any way and my score reflected that. This occurred in the 24/7 Office server. STEAM_0:1:28857477 Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree it's unfair when people can vote just because they hate you, or because someone is telling them to. God Hates Lags had to use 2 votebans the second time I got banned. The first time, one player voted "no" and said that I did not hack. The second time came up right after I back stabbed this guy, so of course he would change his mind and vote "yes."
