Drama / Apak's server and his Super Admins: Hank (and PsP)
« on: July 11, 2013, 05:30:11 PM »Hank, BL_ID 28623 (and Psp, BL_ID 43328)
Apak hosts an interesting server, Speedkart with Weapons, which gives players a weaponset (I believe it might be Gravity Cat's) to use while racing. However, Apak has made some bad choices with regards to his administration team.
The focus of this drama is two people: Psp (ID 43328) and Hank (28623). Both are super admins and both have eval access. Both have a tendency to be abusive for their own amusement, or at the very least they cheat, though Hank is by far the worse of the two. I have no screenshots, but yesterday Hank made lights appear above many, many bricks to the point that there were hundreds of lights per map, causing a fair amount of lag for me. He subsequently blamed it on Psp (note I might have that backwards; someone was claiming that Psp did it and blamed Hank).
Also yes I do have the swear filter on. I just like it better that way.

Here PSP makes some comments. I'm not sure how serious he is given that the context is absent.
Trinick just asked for admin. Psp told him that had to be cleared with Apak beforehand, and then Hank admined him.
And then Hank blames Psp for admining him.
Psp tries to use eval, only to find that it won't work for him (although it DOES work for hank. Suspicious).
Psp might just be playing along, hard to say. Either way he did deadmin trinick.
Fastmadcow was walking up to the finish, when suddenly, he is forcekilled for no reason and the admins spam the rocket launcher at the guy who was AFK in the spawnzone (sometimes people who are lagging aren't affected by the afk killer).
A continuation of the previous image.
Psp starts discussing how to make a client crash.
Psp mentions that a malicious addon would let you do it but RTB has scripts to ban malicious backdoor uploaders and the forums would realize there's malicious code. Plornt is lying, by the way; there's nothing malicious in the Duplorcator.
Psp discusses more stuff about backdoors and crashing players.
Psp displays that it was indeed either him or Hank who killed Plornt (likely Hank) and that someone messed with the win platform to kill Fastmadcow.
Psp or Hank forcekills some other random guy just for the hell of it.
Hank apparently caused a problem with the /back command to go un-/afk, as this guy and another person later on could not use the /back command after using /afk. (the command itself is stupid and is used to bypass mutes more often than anything else)
Someone (possibly Trinick) asks for admin. Psp says he can't do it without Apak's permission. Plornt says, "Yes you can, hank did it."
Psp spends more time discussing how to crash clients.
After about four rounds on that godawful Red Raceway, Hank cycles the course. Neither I nor anybody else on the server at the time has a problem with that, but the cleanup missed a brick.
Hank warns that the next round will be crazy.
He then proceeds to use eval to set the timescale to 2...
...and resize everyone to insane proportions.
Someone manages to blow up their car at the spawn, likely Hank (though I won't rule out a simple glitch or odd timing).
The next round, Hank resets the timescale and goes afk.
TL;DR
Hank abuses eval and admins unreliable people without permission and should be deadmined and Psp sorta helps him but isn't quite as bad.
