Voteban Abuse (Cs:s 24/7 Office)

[JDawg ` H+ 0]

It has come to my attention that a few people, notably [HFS] Jaber and his fellow [HFS] lackies, have basically assumed control of your server. They hang out there, and vote ban anyone who they don't like or cannot kill. For instance, I was on T with them and the score was like 36 - 2 for us, so I switched to CT and we began to win; they vote banned me for 30 minutes.

They just spam the votes for banning people, even after the votes fail countless times, and spam chat declaring things about people (such as hacks, etc..) until enough newcomers or people who just want the window to go away finally hit yes.

This has happened to me personally numerous times on this server, I do fairly good in office especially because you can hear everything; they are okay with this until I am on the opposite team then they repeatedly vote ban me and call me a wall hacker. I've been banned like 4 times now.

Can something please be done about this? They are a group of people who simply ban anyone they dislike or cannot kill and it is frankly retarded to be removed from such an awesome server for 30 minutes simply because they dislike you or you are a good player.

I apologize if this was a little beyond necessary in length or if it is in the wrong section.

I concur. They do sometimes try to voteban people no matter what. If someone camps too long they try to ban instead of kick. If a kid talks and has an annoying voice they try to ban instead of votemute. I don't have a problem with most of them, it's definitly not ALL of them it's really only a few of the members.

Even I have had a voteban against me, which everyone was undeniably against. Didn't even give a reason. He said "Let's put it to a vote" and then votebanned me. Some of them think everyone with a good score or better score then them hacks. Which wouldn't be a surprise since I know for a fact that atleast one uses a recoil script and one uses walls.

Jeezy is a good example of false accusations. They think he walls and they cry all the time. But yet if you look up his Steam ID. he was CEVO in 1.6. And I haven't found one trace of him hacking unlike them.

I've been accused of wall hacking by them almost every single time I encounter them on that server and I have been playing Source on and off since the day it came out so I know to shut up and listen to footsteps. Been vote banned many times and always will be unless I am on their team or am not killing them. I've seen Jeezy, he is good but definitely does not hack.

I know it's not all of them but when one of them starts up they all follow. Haha, which ones use the walls & recoil?

votebans are temporary.

But yes looking at the logs, they are rather rampant. The prevote ratio as well as voteban percentage will be increased, we'll see if that helps.

EDIT:

Voteban and votekick shared the same vote percentage... not sure why it was like this, but clearly not how it should be.

So I just increased the voteban percentage a bit, will edit the prevote ratio later.

So called Clan "( HFS )" just had another person banned for having HFS in front of their name. I'm Sorry if Im wrong to say this, but Office 24/7 isn't HFS's server. In fact they don't even have their own server or website from what I've searched for. So how can they take over Your server like it's theirs and ban people for wearing their tag. Which isn't even a registered clan?

I thought Lotus Clan owned this server. These people control the server when they are on all on at once. It's BS. I've told them that they cannont false ban or ban for stupid crap like that because it ISN'T their server. But yet they persuade the votes to their liking. I'm not the only one who feels this way.

Again votebanned by Marty. Gave no reason at all. I wasn't banned thankfully. Seems to like to voteban anyone he doesn't like. Can we please get a trustworthy person as an admin on this server?

This is true. Can you make a demo when this happens?

If enough people provide proof I will ban the offenders, all of them.

Indeed. Use this to help you get them banned:

I like seeing assholes banned, so do it!
