Title: Tech raging/spamming/attempting to lag-crash wirebuild [Demotion request]
Post by: ursus on January 24, 2011, 08:49:33 PM
SteamID:
STEAM_0:1:19444202

Player's name:
Tech

My in-game name:
Unicron

Server name:
Wirebuild

Event(s):
To start out, me and a guest named "john" are building mouse-aimed GDC turrets for the past 30 minutes or so. Tech is working in the far corner of the map.
I'm using a machine gun/facer turret, and I see tech in the far corner.
To my knowledge, PP keeps GDC/PewPew from damaging other player's props.
I shoot at him only once with the machine gun, to see if I can hit him from across the map.
The round hits his contraption, and breaks some wood on the front.

As soon as this happens, Tech goes completely and utterly insane. Right away, he "declares war" and spams GDC mortars for a solid 3-5 minutes (During which none of us can even move, look around, or get over 1 FPS).

After we can all move again, he drops to the maturity level of a 13-year old and  starts arguing with us, asking why I ever shot in the first place and tries to completely dodge the question of why he spammed the server at the drop of a hat.

EDIT: To clarify: Tech was noclipped in the air. I shot specifically AT HIM, and only once. I missed and hit his contraption that was in the air near him. At no point did I fire at him with the intent of destroying his work.

Once again, let me reiterate myself:

The standing fact is, I broke something of his by accident and he completely flipped out. A VIP on the servers shouldn't be so quick to anger (Or spam in the manner that he did).

Think of it this way: if a guest came in and spammed GDC like that, they would get banned for a very, VERY long time. Having a higher rank doesn't exempt you from obeying the server rules.

Reason for ban:
 -- Extreme immaturity, not being able to handle the smallest accident
 -- Condescending and disrespectful attitude
 -- Complete disregard for rules, spamming the server and intentionally lagging other players

I originally wasn't going to report it, but the fact that a VIP acted at that low a level of maturity pushed me over the edge.

He kept his cool enough not to abuse though, right?

It just seemed like he thought you tried attacking him, so he 'declared war' on you, in an attempt to 1up and basically say 'don't fuck with me'.

I'm not gonna try to get too involved. I honestly never played with Tech in gmod, but we spent a lot of time building bases on Minecraft. Rip RND Biodome ;~;

So as for his demotion,  :thumbsdown:

I never had the intention of destroying anything he made, but as soon as I accidentally destroyed some of his props by complete accident he went insane and spammed like shit. That's not the sort of thing a VIP should even consider doing. Even if he did try to 1up me, that's still extremely immature and unnecessary. In addition, he was disrupting gameplay for everyone on the server, not just me.

All you're doing is reiterating your argument. My point is, whether he had a reason or not trying to 1up someone by spamming everyone in the server is not only immature but against the rules. Unless you can come up with a decent reason to spam over 30 GDC missiles for a straight 5 minutes, I suggest you just move along.

I've had personal problems with this guy. Prop killing me over and over again for shooting his stuff. That when on for about 30 mins..

:thumbsup: for demote.

I actually got that on demo and sent it to magic. I don't know if magic still has the link, but that would be more evidence.

I really haven't ever played with tech and this really is none of my business but i think it needs to be said.

If pry has given you a clip of him minging and prop killing him for 30 minutes, also this evidence i think that should be enough proof. I mean in his situation he was probably mad but all he had to do was votekick/voteban that's why he has the VIP privilege and this report wouldn't even be on here.  But instead he took advantage of the tools he was given and abused as one of the VIP icons on the server and I don't think that should be the type of message VIPs should be giving.

Well, I don't see Tech rages. I even broke and disturbed him while he's making his plane.

So IDK.

Never seen Tech rage.
I have only seen him say "...." when someone does something stupid to him then he ignores.

You all say you've never seen him rage, but it's all in the screens right there. I don't get what I have to do to convince you people.
Even if he didn't rage, he still tried to solve an extremely small situation by ruining the game for everyone else instead of being mature and letting it go.

This is where it goes downhill in the chatlogs:

Unicron: How is that even possible I'm using GDC
Tech: because its wood
Unicron: Well then its your fault for not having it unbreakable

No its not his fault, its yours for shooting him.
I'm pointing this out because you could have also made a decision to just leave it and say sorry.

It may not have been his fault, but Tech knew that we were testing GDC and could have prevented it as well. At that point, I was somewhat aggravated at the fact he was getting so mad over me shooting at him and mistakenly hitting his contraption (Which only got broken because he was using wood props that he hadn't made unbreakable).
The standing fact is, I broke something of his by accident and he completely flipped out. A VIP on the servers shouldn't be so quick to anger (Or spam in the manner that he did).

This is getting far out of hand your next reply better be good or this is going to be locked until reviewed by other admins.

I think you're misunderstanding what I meant. Tech was noclipped in the air, and I tried to specifically shoot him. I missed and hit the contraption he was working on.

Alright, I'll do that once I can get to a computer. I'm still posting from my iPod and forums are a bit slow here.

Funny you say that - given that you offered to help, and when asked to
look at something completely turned around and said you dont have time
to do anything or will think about it or something such. Yet you seem to
be quite visible here in the list and always ready to offer an opinion -
mostly wrong at that.

So what is your aim in being on this list and wasting everyone else's time ?

I am not sorry if this comes across as harsh - but realistically, if you
don't really want to do anything to help - shutup and move along.

People, please.
Unless you have something important to say, leave this up to the admins, the reporter and the reported one(s).
It's annoying to see all reports turning into "HURR HES GOOD/BAD GUY DERP".
Seriously.
Also Frank and gamefreak, please stop being bitches to each other or deal with it in the restricted sections/over PMs/over steam ... There's no need to turn this into a hate thread.

lolbackseatmoderating ... I don't even care, it just annoys me.

heres how this thread is going to end...

gamefreak clearly did something wrong

tech clearly did something wrong


now in the case of gamefreak not being vip, he will recieve a day ban

in the case of tech, he will be demoted to regular and recieve a day ban

IN FUTURE CASES BEFORE ANYTHING GETS OUT OF HAND AND THIS HAPPENS AGAIN, FIND AN ADMIN AND TELL THEM THE SITUATION
DO NOT INSTIGATE THE SITUATION FURTHER
