Author Topic: Greyscale: "Because"  (Read 15392 times)

Really guys? Are you trying to justify abusing admin? That's what half of drama is about! Might does not make right friends!

Oh my god, it's an brown townogy. Even though they are not closely related, they have the power to control a community, and it's morally wrong to abuse it.
Yes I know it's an brown townogy, I pointed that out in the second sentence. "Authority."
Anyway community? What community? The whole entire population or just ~5 players on a server? Pretty sure one administrator on a random server does not have control over anyone but the people in the server. And no it's not morally wrong to 'abuse' it. This isn't some crime. It's a private server. It's a server on a game that if you have administrator on it you are able to do what you need to do in order to enjoy your time. This isn't some sort of real life RP, it's a game made to fool around it, have fun in, destroy things, and remove anyone who stands in your way of enjoying the game.

Let's put it in perspective;
You have a party that you only want your close friends to join and a few random people. Then a guy shows up that instantly sparks up your dislike mentality (hey we all have that moment where you dislike someone on sight). 1) You don't want him there, 2) he looks fishy to you and 3) you don't like the way he looks, or looks at you or whatever, what are you going to do? Remove him like any other person would? Or let him stay to forget up your time just because "oh hey it was the moral thing to do!" And even if you, the host of the party didn't do it, what if your friend does it? Would you kick your friend out because he didn't like that guy you don't know? Yeah right it's party time.

Besides please tell me what you plan to accomplish here? Let us know 'abuse' took place? Ok so? What's going to happen? Nothing. Greyscale will probably still keep his admin, the host will continue to have fun with his friends and ban people like you just because.

Support, I also don't understand how anyone is supporting Blockzilla, you can't just ban people "cause you don't like them" if you never met them.
(hey we all have that moment where you dislike someone on sight)
Seriously? Yeah you dislike someone on sight, if you don't even give them a chance and get to know them, then you're basically just saying "Oh, I don't like this person because he looks like a shady guy". That's stupid, you should've learned already to never judge a book by it's cover.

You can't? But Greyscale just did, and so did many others before him. Did something happen to them? Most of the time the answer is no, they got off free, unless the host is some sort of party pooper and de-admined them, trying to act all professional like this is some sort of company or something.

Yes will judge a book by it's cover, no matter how small or big, many of us did before and still do it, anyone who says otherwise is a loving liar.

How is the host being a party pooper? Maybe he/she didn't want the admin to loving ban people randomly, and actually keep order.
Also, yeah we all judge a book by it's cover, but you should at least give that person a chance.

I understand the loving brown townogy but this is a loving game where someone is letting you join. They're not making you. You don't HAVE to be on there do you?

I honestly don't know what is wrong with you guys. This goes under:

•How tribal/offensive/noobish certain users are
•Who you should or should not ban/admin

Blueblur was unfairly banned, Greyscale was abusing his powers and the host should take his powers away. You guys are dismissing this one thread when lots of other threads have had admins ban people for no reason and support was given. What's wrong with this thread?

They are being a party pooper because they act as if it's some sort of law system. Besides I would understand in a situation where the admin would literally ban anyone who joins, but not in a situation like this. One person got banned, bluebur, did anyone else? Of course not because as I recall bluebur said there were several people in the server who where still there and were not taking any act of abuse.
Also, yeah we all judge a book by it's cover, but you should at least give that person a chance.
That defeats the whole purpose about judging the book by it's cover in the first place, doesn't it? Chances are that most of us don't give chances to people who look like bad news on sight because we want to avoid future situations. This rarely happens, but it does happen and it's best to trust yourself that your brain knows what it's doing.

I'm not allowed to debate whether Greyscale was actually in the wrong here? So what it's just say "oh this guy did this to me and he's mean" and that's it for drama? People can't jump in and actually defend the person who's in the 'wrong'?
And it's just now that I thought about it so that's why I didn't pop up in the other threads. I give my full support when real admin abuse takes place, such as mass banning and ruining the server. But this doesn't really connect with what I think.

Its because blockzilla dislikes me because he doesn't like my name or avatar. Remember that thing he said about disliking people on sight? I guess it works the same way with drama.

:(

since people seemed to have a hard time grasping the police officer brown townogy here's another one
So I'm hosting a party, and sending invites or something to get the word across that anyone is welcome, and a lot of people show up. Now there's this one guy that I don't like on sight. I don't know him, but I don't like him. It's ok for me not to like him, but it's not ok for me to kick him out of the party, as he hasn't done anything remotely offensive. On the other hand, if he picks up the cupcakes and throws them at another partygoer, it's a-ok for me to kick him out because he was being an starfish

I wish i had a name like yours
anyways
let me just tell you why this stuff is wrong

1.) You're sending invites. If I'm hosting a server where I'm not trying to get the word across, it's just open, and people can join but it's my rules so I'll ban people I don't like, that's fine. If you're sending invites or trying to actually get people online, that's not okay.
2.) I actually know the people I ban and usually they are because they have been richards in one way or another. I guess it's a different scenario.
3.) A lot of people showed up. If I'm playing with 4 people. 3 are strangers, 1 is my best friend and he's host, and I'm super admin. I don't like Person C. I ban Person C because I don't like him. Because it's such a small server and I'm not trying to get people on, it's okay.

:(

the point I'm trying to get across is that the party is open. IRL there isn't a server list so I was trying to give an example that anyone could come. And if you know someone's consistently a richard and the server is open for ransoms to admire a build or whatever but say glass comes and you don't want a stuffstorm simply notify him that if he tries to start anything he will no longer be welcome at your server. Don't just go and ban 'em with no warning beforehand, that's not really ok

it's my rules
We have already established the fact that I did not break any rules.

you're not getting the point
my rules could be something like
1. i have to like you

ok. this thread is not about your rules. its about me being banned without breaking any. I read all the rules and followed them. my ban was unfair.
