I want to know why you ban players from gather with the comment "unsportsmanlike behaviour" for no reason.
I f4´d once in 1 engagement. I stopped doing it after Yaluzan told me to stop.
Therefore I want to know since when is it allowed to ban people for not performing well?
Gather is for any skill level as far as I know.
I want a real reason or are admins allowed to do what they want?

All I did was playing as well as I could without a mic because it´s broken.
Just because people say someone is trolling doesn´t mean it´s true.

I demand a well thought out reasoning for this or I loose any faith in this current system.

1. its a 1 day ban.
2. I have seen you F4 / kill command several times to avoid other people killing you, which is counted as unsportsmanlike behavior.
3.
15:38 - CrayCray: trolling all game
15:38 - CrayCray: not even playing
15:38 - CrayCray: letting nodes die

Its only a 1 day ban, its not that much.

So you don´t get a warning? Like stop doing "whatever" or you will face consequences?
Very interesting.
Just because someone says you don´t play like he expects it, that´s enough proof ?
Just a 1 day ban u say ? It´s not much you say ?
What if someone can only play once a week and you just ban him?
Is it still not much?
I expect more of a person in charge.

Plenty of warnings have been given, in the past aswell. Your current attitude doesn't help tho.

I can´t recall official warnings regarding f4ing from admins in the past but good to know.
I accept the f4 part then, but I strongly reject any accusations regarding trolling in gathers.
I don´t troll, I never trolled, everything I do or say is 100% my opinion and any gameplay is the best I can do at all times no matter how bad it is.

I close my argumentation with the shout of the oppressed and banned :

Hello everyone,

LOL.
Regarding the F4ing I warned people several times on TS and ingame, on the gather chat, on steam too.
And I remembered that the first time i started to warn people I was gathering on Tram then mineral and you were here. So cut the crap please.

I want to highlight one thing one more time, heavy taunting/being disrespectful/being dicks towards admins can lead to a ban. Remember we are not paid to do our "job" here. We all are investing some time to make things better for all of us.
I would appreciate if some people may start to behave nicely. You know being smart and gentle with each other won't kill you. But if you just want to test our "limits", you probably will get banned.
When players who handled •1000 or so gathers start complaining about a ban, "I dunno about..."
=> 95% is trolling. And the other 5% should admit that they can't read or listen to the f*ing rules.

9. Super obvious, but for the sake of completion: "Don't be a dick".

There were times in the game where you were clearly not giving a shit, you aren't new to this game, your aim can suck, idc, but when you just stand by and dont try to do things its kinda pointless.

Also I would consider a one day ban a fairly clear warning.

Well, ok if you use the general "don´t be a dick" rule ... let´s see what " being a dick" means:

- A person behaves in a way which is "annoying", "offensive" or "rude" to YOU.

So the term "being a dick" is not clearly defined.

For me it doesn´t matter if someone F4´s on me because it doesn´t make a difference in the flow of the game. A person F4ing me isn´t a dick for me but might be one for someone else.

or a different example:
Let´s say you think every human being is "trash" (including yourself). So calling someone trash or being called trash isn´t offensive or "dick-behaviour" for you.

This rule might work for most people but not everyone ... therefore you should expand the rule to make it more precise.

For example: "Don´t be a dick" ("being a dick" is defined as "behaving like a dick according to the majority in the gather")

I´m always happy to suggest ideas for improvement.
