Hey guys,
I'm new to the Sniper servers and ToB for that matter, but here is my complaint.
We were playing on August 10 about 4:00 A.M EDT (Atl. Ga. USA) and I made a statement about what my ex g/f had said about me playing video games. My exact words were, "I hear ya Mike, my ex use to say, 'you're always playing those damn video games'". 30 seconds later I got booted for an hour.
I wouldn't be complaining about anything had I been given some kind of warning for abusive or abrasive language, but I was not given a warning.
Had I been given a warning (there are no Console Warnings on the server I was on...64.34.184.17:28940), I would have gladly and without hesitation apologized for what I had said.
I have read some of the other complaints waiting for my first post to show up, but it never did, so this is a re-write. I understand you guys and gals are a close knit family/clan, and that's all well and good, I applaud you all for being that tight. I just don't understand why I was not given a warning before being booted. I cause no trouble at all, I have never been booted from a server in my whole entire online gaming life, which I have been doing for about 7 yrs now. I would say thats a DARN good track record. I have always respected admin rules and regulations on whatever server I was on. If I was given warnings for something I said or did, I apologized and went on playing.
I'm just really confused about why I was kicked for an hour when all I said was "damn".
Anyway, I apologize for what I said and it won't happen again, BUT, at least warn people before booting, especially since you don't have a console up and running on that server.

Thanks in advance,

Hayden

P.S. the admin I believe was Mike, and my name on the server is Hayden.

There is a language filter running on the server. When you typed the word damn it kicked you.

Don't take it personal Lazer, I've been kick by the language filter, lol. With the growing numbers of new people visiting our severs, it's getting harder to police the lot. So we have an automated system. It's not perfect, but it keeps the peace when no admins are online. Catch ya on the B/F.
