Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
hey guys. I have just gotten back from my first leg in my summer adventure. During this past week, I have had alot of time to think and mature. I would like to offer a sincere apology to all of the server for my past actions. I realize that I have annoyed some of you, and have made a code to live by on your server.
I will talk about TF2 related things only unless the topic has been started already
I will not sing
I will not argue with anybody
I will only use engineer buildings in the most efficient way possible
I will play all classes in a way that is beneficial to the team
I will stop when somebody says stop
I will only ask for gimmick rounds once per hour
I will wait 5 minutes before repeating something
I will do my best to be a positive contributing member of the community

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
I never had a problem with you to begin with, but I have the feeling that you have run out of second chances, nightclaw. I wish you all the best in convincing people of your sincerity.

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
Guess we're waiting on Djinn's verdict. Again.
Sorry Djinn. :smallfrown:

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
Is there some kind of secret to getting drops? I've only ever gotten one thing of note, which is Natascha. Not a single hat.

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
The secret to drops is rolling dice.

Thing is that I heard all this already. Several times. I also gave you a flat-out edict to stop with the glitched teleporters, and then was told (and had verified) that you simply ignored that ruling.
Sorry, Nightclaw, but the teleporter thing was the last straw (and not even arguable: it was a flat out violation of my rules for allowing you to stay on the server, less than a day after I gave them to you), and you've had about four second chances now. I was extremely clear on the matter, and you disregarded it. I told you that I wouldn't accept any further violations of that rule. There's nothing I can do.

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
Hats drop for roughly every hour of play, half hour give or take.
Then it's all a matter of waiting.
-
Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
You can try going for the milestone achievements which gives you a class weapon once, but other than that there is no way to directly influence the drop system. And now that idling is effectively dead, the only way now is to just wait and be patient.

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
You know, nightclaw isn't banned from SHaFT yet... and since he's on the forums he has access to the password...

That does not appear to be the case.

Yeah, I got the Huntsman like that, which is funny because ever since I've been an awful Sniper.

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
Im sorry. That night i was really a wreck. Home issues galore, off my meds, I really was just not in control. Plus the fact that my only friend (charlie) asked me to, I just did it to let off some steam.
However, this will not happen again, I have a plan for that situation in the future.
If the community would have mercy upon me just once more, I WOULD BEHAVE PERFECTLY. If I do anything wrong ever again, I promise I will leave and you will never hear from me again.

Not really an excuse. Sorry. Especially since I specifically mentioned that him asking was not a permissible reason.

I'm very much inclined to give a flat-out "no" here, but I'll do this for you: since you've bothered to approach me about it, I'll take community input here. PM me your thoughts, everyone. Yes or no, with what restrictions/reservations/concerns?

I've played for several hours and have not encountered a hat.:smallsigh:

Oh, it's you.
It's been a long time.
How have you been?
I've been really busy being dead playing TF2 again
You know, after you murdered me spammed the server
Ok, look
We've both said a lot of things that you're going to regret
But I think we can put our differences behind us.
For science,
You monster.
But in all seriousness, give him a 1-strike rule.

Hats are rare. When hats first came out, I got 2 hats from idling(Soldier's Stash and Trophy Belt), which luckily, didn't get taken away.
3 months later I got a batter's helmet.
Since then all my hats have been crafts.
Basically, you'd probably get a hat quicker through crafting than as a random drop.

Oops.
That should be items, not hats.

My bad.

Not
A
Single
One
I have manged to craft one, recently, took ages however.

Also, Nightclaw? In my opinion, you have gotten tons of warnings, none you wished to follow dispite what you said/promised previously. I'm not sure about everyone else here, but you will not be getting my trust back for keeping the peace/rules.

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
Treayn, read the bolded words. Edit; MasatoHyuga, you too.

Djinn wants to keep the issue from flaring up again so he'd like your thoughts in a PM.
Speaking of crafting, are there any must have weapons for Soldier, Pyro, and Heavy? (Engie doesn't have stuff yet) I've got a lot of items, but haven't done anything with them.

The average is that you will find 1 hat for every 200 hrs of play time. Results may vary.

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
Alright. I've received a few for giving Nightclaw one last, 1-shot, no infraction trial, and a bunch more for a flat out "no." I've also talked to him about the matter.
How does the following idea sit with people?
- One last chance. Anything I perceive as an infraction gets him booted permanently.
- Until further notice, he is only allowed on the server when I am also on the server, so I can effectively police the situation. Violating this rule results in a permanent ban.
- A wider range of Admins may be added at a later date.
- Nightclaw must be on his medication in order to play on the server, as he has attributed a bunch of past problems to not having taken it.
Thoughts? If it's not this, he's gone. I'm fine with either, but figured I'd suggest the compromise.

Well last time you said the same thing, he was going to be banned end of story =\
None the less, if he must have a pass, I like the second one the most.

I'd still prefer something that involves dropping tarantulas in his coffee, but I suppose that will do. :smalltongue:

Oh, it was all of those at once. That's not a pick-and-choose list.
And Masato? I did say that. But I am getting conflicting things from different people here, and god damn it I'm trying my best to deal with everything.

From my impression, you did... You did solve it awhile ago =\

:smallfurious:
Masato, you're not in my shoes right now. That's lucky for you. This isn't as cut and dry a situation as I wish it was, because everyone involved has a point here. If he had accepted the ban, well and good. The problem is that we've never before had anyone asking about how they can go about reversing a ban, and I'm having to make a precedent where none exists, alright?
This is NOT an easy situation.

I like, especially the last point. I'd be inclined to reduce the second point to a kick rather than a ban, though, since it's cumbersome to tell who's on the server before joining.

Re: GitP/ChHa Server Thread IV: For Science. You Monster.
It's not that cumbersome. Just hit view server info before joining.
