Mar 26, 2021 at 8:22 PM - catnipper: Yeah, but that place apparently serves as a valid medium for reports
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:22 PM - litrllyemma: not really, it deals as a medium for people reporting to us, thats it
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:22 PM - catnipper: So if a person were to complain there about something then those reports would be respected.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:22 PM - litrllyemma: and i prefer it in dms anyways. sourceirc doesnt save stuff and doesnt always notify me, and yes, it would, usually
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:23 PM - catnipper: Shouldn't you bar that kind of behavior if these places are not at all related?
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:23 PM - litrllyemma: not really, because we cant stop them. theres no channel for reports
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:23 PM - catnipper: When I tried inquiring about my own ban there, suddenly it become a one way road
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:24 PM - litrllyemma: because we cant just do a ban contest in a public discord
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:25 PM - catnipper: Even then, having this conversation brought light to the fact that VintagePC for example sank his teeth straight into my priors which weren't even related to the situation at hand.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:26 PM - litrllyemma: catnipper i know u r weird from our last convo but really i dont know exactly what you want
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:26 PM - catnipper: And if a person in a position of power is that desperate to bar any kind of discussion this on the discord, then that's a red flag for sure.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:26 PM - VintagePC: They are related, because you are expected to have ben made aware of the rules at that time.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:26 PM - catnipper: I'm expressing discontent, that's it.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:27 PM - catnipper: Because if I were to get arrested in a first-world country for something, I would really like to know what that is.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:27 PM - VintagePC: No, you are deliberately being argumentative and nitpicking every single point that is being made, repeatedly. You have been TOLD what the ban was for. You refuse to listen
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:27 PM - catnipper: Imagine not having that kind of information disclosed to you.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:27 PM - VintagePC: THis discussion is OVER.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:28 PM - catnipper: Only after I complained for a damn hour.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:28 PM - VintagePC: You were also warned in game PRIOR to the action being taken, so you have no excuse for not knowing.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:28 PM - VintagePC: I am not suprrsed an independent body of moderators decided to ban you from their discord.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:29 PM - VaultBot: we must gather our party before venturing forth
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:29 PM - VintagePC: I will reiterate my point that this is not an "us" problem.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:29 PM - VaultBot: catnipper we have a 110"" 4k screen do you
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:29 PM - catnipper: Yeah, because people are not used to someone else standing on the soapbox for a change.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:30 PM - catnipper: I got the information i was looking for after complaining in this shoutbox for like 20mins and i find out that i've been banned for a week for taunting in spawn with a bunch of peeps
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:33 PM - VintagePC: You and I both know that is not an accurate summary of the situation, and the fact you continue to be argumentative isn't helping your credibility. There's a process, and if you want to be heard, follow it instead of continuing to play the victim.
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:34 PM - litrllyemma: catnipper we have a 110"" 4k screen do you
Mar 26, 2021 at 8:35 PM - VintagePC: This discussion has been nothing but a pissing contest for the past three hours. I'm done with it
 
Mar 27, 2021 6:27 AM - Moira Prime: Good morning
Mar 27, 2021 6:27 AM - Moira Prime: Y'all hear about that boat that's stuck in the Suez Canal? Best memes I've ever seen
Mar 27, 2021 7:42 AM - Technochips: god.
Mar 27, 2021 3:19 PM - Reechard: OH HAY GUYS
Mar 27, 2021 3:20 PM - Reechard: I see I missed some malcontent
Mar 27, 2021 3:20 PM - Reechard: and yeah Evergreen memes have been super good
Mar 27, 2021 3:47 PM - VintagePC: a wild reechard appears!
Mar 27, 2021 6:04 PM - airfryer1911:

Mar 27, 2021 6:05 PM - airfryer1911: Hello, my shoutbox wasn't working correctly so I had to make a new account.
Mar 27, 2021 6:06 PM - airfryer1911: It wasn't malcontent, I had genuine concerns over these things.
Mar 27, 2021 6:07 PM - VaultBot: there not a real redhead unless they have been doing my best to avoid much conversation there.
Mar 27, 2021 6:07 PM - airfryer1911: I still haven't been provided with any actual evidence, and i've been told that i've been given a "satisfactory" description of why i've been banned even though it seems like i've been just lumped in with someone else.
Mar 27, 2021 6:08 PM - airfryer1911: I was not even personally warned in game.
Mar 27, 2021 6:11 PM - airfryer1911: And I've yet to see the video evidence.
Mar 27, 2021 6:43 PM - VintagePC: What part of "take it to a ban contest thread" do you not understand? Make a post, provide the requested info, and we'll deal with it. If you look at some of the other threads, "I don't know why I was banned" is not an uncommon question.
Mar 27, 2021 6:43 PM - airfryer1911: If I were to make a thread, I wouldn't be able to actively defend myself, and I don't even know what claims i'm supposed to defend against if i'm not informed what I got banned for specifically
Mar 27, 2021 6:44 PM - airfryer1911: I'm not able to provide a definitive defense if i'm not even properly shown what I did.
Mar 27, 2021 6:45 PM - airfryer1911: What makes matters worse is how I'm being locked out of channels that would let me gather such information
Mar 27, 2021 6:45 PM - VintagePC: Nobody said you had to defend everything from the get go. And don't start that "I don't know" shit again, you were told yesterday
Mar 27, 2021 6:45 PM - airfryer1911: Why am I not allowed to ask this?
Mar 27, 2021 6:45 PM - airfryer1911: Do you think I possess a superhuman photographic memory?
Mar 27, 2021 6:45 PM - VintagePC: BECAUSE. WE. DO. NOT. HANDLE. BAN. DETAILS. IN A SHOUTBOX
Mar 27, 2021 6:46 PM - VintagePC: WE HANDLE THEM IN A THREAD
Mar 27, 2021 6:46 PM - airfryer1911: The admin should've handled the ban details from step 1.
Mar 27, 2021 6:46 PM - VintagePC: THAT IS WHERE YOU ASK
Mar 27, 2021 6:46 PM - VaultBot: and those generally don't coincide well enough to work with this sample size
Mar 27, 2021 6:46 PM - VintagePC: CAPICHE?
Mar 27, 2021 6:46 PM - airfryer1911: Yet I get some kind of a frizzled mess of a ban reason. Why are you getting this upset over a request for discourse?
Mar 27, 2021 6:47 PM - VintagePC: Maybe because you expect us to listen to you, but you refuse to listen to what we are instructing you to do
Mar 27, 2021 6:47 PM - airfryer1911: Yes, because something seems off in the way i'm being treated by the admins. So If I were to make a thread about this, I would leave you passing the ball of "is this guy worth our time" amongst yourselves behind a closed curtain.
Mar 27, 2021 6:48 PM - airfryer1911: How do you think I feel right now?
Mar 27, 2021 6:49 PM - VintagePC: Don't start that victim shit again.
Mar 27, 2021 6:50 PM - VaultBot: that is annoying other people in the server, why not put that in the woods
Mar 27, 2021 6:50 PM - VintagePC: Go look at the ban contests
Mar 27, 2021 6:50 PM - airfryer1911: Genuine question, I want to know how you perceive me right now.
Mar 27, 2021 6:51 PM - VintagePC: and take a look at how they are handled.
Mar 27, 2021 6:52 PM - VintagePC: IF you want an impartial judge then I can ask one of the other rednames to handle it
Mar 27, 2021 6:54 PM - airfryer1911: What if I just want Moira to write up more specific ban reasons next time?
Mar 27, 2021 6:55 PM - airfryer1911: where do i complain about that
Mar 27, 2021 6:58 PM - VintagePC: You don't, because I told you yesterday Sourcebans lets you pick from a set of canned reasons. And we have better things to do with our time than come up with every possible ban reason ahead of time
Mar 27, 2021 6:59 PM - airfryer1911: That can't be true. There's like a blank in every ban form for a ban reason.
Mar 27, 2021 7:00 PM - airfryer1911: If they were locked to using hard presets, wouldn't they have uniform casing?
Mar 27, 2021 7:00 PM - VintagePC: Website maybe, but ingame, no
Mar 27, 2021 7:00 PM - airfryer1911: Well the website is a source of info for this.
Mar 27, 2021 7:01 PM - airfryer1911: So through this I'm letting you know that at least someone reads those if you really don't care about filling that field out.
Mar 27, 2021 7:02 PM - airfryer1911: ... not YOU, but the source admins.
Mar 27, 2021 7:03 PM - airfryer1911: Which I find even weirder is that you can ban someone for "multiple rule violations" but you can just easily include every ban reason in someone's case.
Mar 27, 2021 7:04 PM - airfryer1911: so a ban that should've been along the lines of "Hacking, harassment, map exploit" just gets pixelated down to "multiple ban reasons"
Mar 27, 2021 7:11 PM - VintagePC: Is that everything?
Mar 27, 2021 7:14 PM - airfryer1911: What, you want to go over something again?
Mar 27, 2021 7:27 PM - VintagePC: No, I'm just asking if you're finished complaining.and that's the only thing you want out of this
Mar 27, 2021 7:29 PM - airfryer1911: What, you actually want me to complain more?
 
Mar 29, 2021 7:29 AM - Reechard: hey I banned that asshat's alt account from box
Mar 29, 2021 7:32 AM - Reechard: it's a videogame
Mar 29, 2021 2:46 PM - bargainbinSnW: i made this account to call you a retard
Mar 29, 2021 2:46 PM - VaultBot: get your d&d shiznit away from my box!
Mar 29, 2021 2:46 PM - bargainbinSnW: LOL
Mar 29, 2021 2:47 PM - bargainbinSnW: got all my points across, so the shoutbox is near worthless to me now.
Mar 29, 2021 2:47 PM - bargainbinSnW: since i don't see the appeal in using deprecated forum features with a bunch of gamers in their 30s
Mar 29, 2021 2:51 PM - bargainbinSnW:
p7e7tnn.png

Mar 29, 2021 2:52 PM - VaultBot: sol if i can get a girl lava
Mar 29, 2021 2:52 PM - bargainbinSnW: pic of me reading your stupid boomer convos
Mar 29, 2021 3:00 PM - bargainbinSnW: reechard, my final words to you
Mar 29, 2021 3:01 PM - bargainbinSnW: i banned your mom from sucking my dick, she's devastated.
Mar 29, 2021 3:01 PM - bargainbinSnW: ;)
Mar 29, 2021 3:14 PM - theLumberJack: oh no he called us boomers
Mar 29, 2021 3:19 PM - Reechard: I'm almost 40, I'm probably actually old enough to hit on your mom.
Mar 29, 2021 3:20 PM - Reechard: And what's wonderful is, I'm REALLY charming.
Mar 29, 2021 3:20 PM - Reechard: So I'd have her in bed in a few hours.
Mar 29, 2021 3:20 PM - Reechard: Begone child, it's past your bedtime.
Mar 29, 2021 3:28 PM - VintagePC: Great, Door's over there. Don't let it hit you in the ass on the way out.
Mar 29, 2021 3:28 PM - VintagePC: Go concern troll some other community and make mountains out of molehills there.
Mar 29, 2021 3:29 PM - VintagePC: If you aren't interested in following a simple process we have nothing further to say
Mar 29, 2021 3:58 PM - airfryer6: are you guys just banning me from the shoutbox over and over again in hopes of getting the last laugh?
Mar 29, 2021 3:59 PM - airfryer6: i was pretty respectful up to the point where that one dumbshit chimed in with a VERY LATE ban.
Mar 29, 2021 3:59 PM - airfryer6: Props to Vintage for being somewhat on the level, but seems like Reechard has gone senile for sure.
Mar 29, 2021 4:01 PM - airfryer6: Like, I don't get the thought process behind barring me from the shoutbox a DAY LATER after everything happened.
Mar 29, 2021 4:03 PM - airfryer6: Or does your reaction time really get THAT bad with age.
Mar 29, 2021 4:03 PM - airfryer6: You make being middle-aged sound so scary.
Mar 29, 2021 4:04 PM - airfryer6: Don't expect me to keep the lingo clean after you call me an "asshat".
Mar 29, 2021 4:05 PM - airfryer6: Fuckin' codgers.
Mar 29, 2021 4:17 PM - Reechard: Hurf durf durf
Mar 29, 2021 4:18 PM - Reechard: It's me the boomer
Mar 29, 2021 4:27 PM - Reechard: Codgers? Oh you're from the EU group. Don't you have a brexit to do?
Mar 29, 2021 6:10 PM - Moira Prime: fun
Mar 29, 2021 6:27 PM - Statboy: i see EU is back up and running
Mar 29, 2021 6:29 PM - VintagePC: Shhhh, nobody tell them
 
Mar 30, 2021 at 6:26 PM - Moira Prime: do @mentions work in shoutbox
Mar 30, 2021 at 6:26 PM - Moira Prime: whatever, why does steam have to go down at the worst times?
Mar 30, 2021 at 6:57 PM - VintagePC: nah, shoutbox doesn't really have a way of notifying people
Mar 30, 2021 at 6:58 PM - VintagePC: though it might crop up and tag them when it gets dumped into the daily blotter thread
 
Apr 3, 2021 1:18 PM - Technochips: https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2classic/comments/mj92p4/there_is_person_who_is_always_in_spawn_playing/
Apr 3, 2021 1:20 PM - Technochips: some redditor is pissed about an afker can an admin check every individual servers for a dude spamming "spy" in spawn or something?
Apr 3, 2021 1:23 PM - VintagePC: that post is from four hours ago. I dealt with someone doing that earlier this morning but the person in question like to use VPNs and alts to evade bans
Apr 3, 2021 1:27 PM - VintagePC: is it still an ongoing issue?
Apr 3, 2021 1:43 PM - Technochips: not sure, someone shared these screenshots but that was like 40 minutes ago https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/666970084367007784/827967059815825468/Capture.JPG
Apr 3, 2021 1:43 PM - VintagePC: yeah, that's the guy I banhammered this morning
Apr 3, 2021 1:44 PM - Technochips: alright
Apr 3, 2021 1:46 PM - VintagePC: We're looking at what else we can do; currently trying to scope out how many people would be impacted by blocking people from connecting using VPNs
Apr 3, 2021 1:46 PM - VintagePC: ... how many *legitimate* players, that is
 
Apr 4, 2021 at 9:45 AM - Statboy: Its a nice day outside, I'm a white male living in the suburbs, I got a brand new pair of New Balance sneakers. Time to join my people and do yard today. **runs off to take a Claritin first**
Apr 4, 2021 at 9:45 AM - Statboy: Happy Easter everyone
Apr 4, 2021 at 10:16 AM - VintagePC: Happy easter to you too
Apr 4, 2021 at 10:37 AM - BlobfishK: the servers are laggy as hell, you guys are seriously asking 125$ a month for this shit?
Apr 4, 2021 at 10:38 AM - VaultBot: no because she's a dumbass
Apr 4, 2021 at 10:39 AM - VaultBot: borderlands 1's story was nice, never understood all the hatred towards the ending. i thought the twist was cool./ boss in 2 was difficult
Apr 4, 2021 at 10:43 AM - VintagePC: Gee, maybe if you weren't being a salty asshat and evading bans or DDoSing them they'd be fine
Apr 4, 2021 at 10:50 AM - VintageMac: I didn't DDoS shit actually, the most i've done is ban evasion
Apr 4, 2021 at 10:52 AM - VintagePC: seriously dude, get a fucking life
Apr 4, 2021 at 6:23 PM - Moira Prime: Damn it's easter and he could be chilling playing games and having fun with his family and instead he's over here making alts on a forum all morning
 
Apr 7, 2021 3:02 PM - Statboy: I looked at the rules for DCC, make 4 completely random characters, whoever lives through your first dungeon is who you get
Apr 7, 2021 3:03 PM - Statboy: Looks entertaining at least. I wouldn't want to run a campaign on rules I haven't played before
Apr 7, 2021 8:11 PM - theLumberJack: i have run a few of the 0 level funnels and have the actual rulebook
 
Apr 9, 2021 11:20 AM - Reechard: I have a pretty nice little stack of their sourcebooks but I'm in *no* position to DM anything
Apr 9, 2021 11:20 AM - Reechard: I'm barely in a position to play most of the time lol
Apr 9, 2021 1:04 PM - VaultBot: but to manipulate it to your will
Apr 9, 2021 1:04 PM - Cheese: I suggest nominally that you change some of the rules on your server or get admins who take life a little easier. When I scroll through the ban list on vault f4 I don't particularly see anything other than bans for superficial rules i.e. 'he said something that broke my paper thin skin' and even in my case it was after the fact without a single person being offended.
Apr 9, 2021 1:05 PM - Cheese: Pretty sure i made some comment along the lines of 'Yeah, when you get furry admins who are ban happy and just ban people for having a good time it creates self contained communities and it ruins the game just like retail'. It's hilarious because the people I was talking with in game at the time agreed with me.
Apr 9, 2021 1:05 PM - Cheese: Your admin (who wasn't even present) went on what I assume were screenshots or recordings to act in a vindictive manner.
Apr 9, 2021 1:06 PM - Cheese: Normally I wouldn't care and I'd move on to another server but seeing as how your community has effectively monopolized the player base for TF2C I thought I would make the suggestion. There's a reason retail is shit. There's a reason the community for retail is (really) bad. It's not people having a good time and having fun playing the game.
Apr 9, 2021 1:08 PM - VaultBot: zirkus, you can be happy with that :)
Apr 9, 2021 1:08 PM - Reechard: holy SHIT dude.
Apr 9, 2021 1:08 PM - litrllyemma: no reechard this isnt catnipper its some other dude
Apr 9, 2021 1:08 PM - Cheese: Hey Emma :)
Apr 9, 2021 1:09 PM - litrllyemma: Cheese, I got a report that you were being an asshole to someone until they stopped talking. That falls in line with being toxic/our brown hat rule.
Apr 9, 2021 1:09 PM - Reechard: OH
Apr 9, 2021 1:09 PM - Reechard: sorry, it's probably a catnipper alt doing it
Apr 9, 2021 1:09 PM - litrllyemma: Trust me, I care about the community too, which is why I'm even an admin, because I want people to have fun playing the game over prioritzing being an asshole.
Apr 9, 2021 1:09 PM - Reechard: he's monitoring shoutbox through a proxy
Apr 9, 2021 1:10 PM - litrllyemma: Nah it's not catnipper this time, surprisingly, lol. Just some dude who I gave a warning ban
Apr 9, 2021 1:10 PM - Reechard: and when he sees admins admins are online he trolls servers
Apr 9, 2021 1:10 PM - Cheese: There's a line that you have to draw at a certain point
Apr 9, 2021 1:10 PM - VaultBot: get to her homework
Apr 9, 2021 1:10 PM - Cheese: Sorry to say shittalking is far more of an ancient tradition in games than the 2014 playerbase who can't handle it
Apr 9, 2021 1:11 PM - litrllyemma: I would classify it as more than shittalking, but alright.
Apr 9, 2021 1:11 PM - Cheese: I said literally one sentence to the guy and it got laughs
Apr 9, 2021 1:11 PM - litrllyemma: Something getting laughs =/ Being allowed
Apr 9, 2021 1:12 PM - Cheese: I'm sorry but that's ridiculous and it drives people away
Apr 9, 2021 1:12 PM - litrllyemma: I believe you're assuming im some thin skinned "SJW" or some shit because I banned you, when really I'd just prefer people get along in the community rather than shittalking others into being silent. It's moreso people like you that drive others away than a few rules to make the servers not end up as a cesspit. I won't be discussing how I administrate further with you. Continued in next post
Apr 9, 2021 1:13 PM - litrllyemma: But feel free to appeal for your 2 day ban if you really feel it was not warranted. Have a good day cheese.
Apr 9, 2021 1:14 PM - Cheese: Oh the poor children
Apr 9, 2021 1:14 PM - litrllyemma: :)
Apr 9, 2021 1:14 PM - Cheese: Nah i think i'm going to be renting my own server honestly
Apr 9, 2021 1:15 PM - Cheese: And i'll have a perfectly active 'cesspit' server where i guarantee people will have a far better time
Apr 9, 2021 1:15 PM - VaultBot: it's a thankless enough job as it is proper statistics or stats to massage data and make it look good
Apr 9, 2021 1:15 PM - Cheese: :)
Apr 9, 2021 1:16 PM - Reechard: Have fun figuring out how to run literally anything in source engine in 2021 lol
Apr 9, 2021 1:16 PM - Cheese: I've been playing source games for over a decade now i have a pretty good idea
Apr 9, 2021 1:17 PM - litrllyemma: Don't feed into him, have fun making idorts 2 lol
Apr 9, 2021 1:17 PM - Cheese: adieu enjoy your hugbox
Apr 9, 2021 3:05 PM - theLumberJack: reech you're behind on my hugs
Apr 9, 2021 3:50 PM - VaultBot: i don't screw this up royally
Apr 9, 2021 3:50 PM - theLumberJack: the man said this is a hugbox and i demand hugs
 
Apr 10, 2021 at 6:44 PM - LavaRed: hugbox? Since when did Piper turn into a hugfest?
Apr 10, 2021 at 7:08 PM - VintagePC: You've been away too long
Apr 10, 2021 at 7:08 PM - VintagePC: this sort of shit happens when you abandon us
Apr 10, 2021 at 8:23 PM - VaultBot: not tonight :(
Apr 10, 2021 at 8:23 PM - LavaRed: I know, I'm a horrid CM
 
Apr 14, 2021 10:40 AM - theLumberJack: stat don't worry about having a campaign specific trait
Apr 14, 2021 11:19 AM - Statboy: Ok, I'll replace it with the faith trait that gives +1 Will. Did you see I took the Angel Blooded Aasimar variant, and Halo instead of Darkvision
Apr 14, 2021 4:30 PM - theLumberJack: good to know
 
Apr 25, 2021 at 5:00 PM - VintagePC: Heh, I still need to go pre-shopping for tomorrow
Apr 25, 2021 at 8:56 PM - Statboy: After 10 years of loyal service, I finally put down my old gaming PC
 
Apr 26, 2021 at 8:40 AM - Reechard: RIP Statboy's Computer
Apr 26, 2021 at 9:52 AM - theLumberJack: vint do you need time tonight to finish up shopping
Apr 26, 2021 at 10:31 AM - VintagePC: I'm gonna sit down 1-2h before the session to get it done
Apr 26, 2021 at 11:03 AM - VaultBot: looks like lava's favorite type of character to play
