TSGK,

I've been muted for over a year and a half now. I've asked before to be un-muted from your servers as a ton of my friends play on TSGK. It's rather sad to be unable to conduct a fun or instructive conversation. Furthermore, I find it frustrating that the policy that leads to muting doesn't seem to apply uniformly. I have kids cussing and taunting me and others constantly without recourse on the servers from time to time. Regardless, I'd appreciate the muting being lifted as I think any harm I might have caused from over a year ago + has duly been paid.

Thx

Our records indicate that you were auto-muted in first time the 2007-11-05.
This first mute was then removed as a part of our 2008 new year "clemency" where only 8 players were eligible for this and you were one of them, the 2008-01-02 your mute was then lifted following this exceptionnal decision.
Unfortunatly, you got auto-muted again 2 months later the 2008-02-22.
As in normal time we do not remove a mute at all, getting a mute removed is a part of an exceptionnal decision, and this happend very rarely to not say never, once such a decision was taken and applied, it is definitly consumed, therefor a second lift is not possible anymore.
Thanks.

Thx for the response. The second time I had a guy cussing me out. I'm a grown man of 37 long hard years. I don't let 17 year old kids talk to me like a piece of trash. It's happened back then and since then tons of times. Most of the time, as you know, no admin is ever present to attend to these sorts of issues. If that doesn't count for an exception I don't know what would.

Being muted disrupts the game so much that you can't even have casual conversations with friend and foe alike. I know what it's like to deal with these issues myself for I was a server admin (of my own server) for years.

Your call. I think your a reasonable person, recalling our conversation a long while back.

Aye, i was muted but then un-muted

Being 37 years old, you should learn to rise above the trash and not lower yourself to their standards, its just a game.

I agree and have on many occasions. There are times though when it's about respect. It's hard enough to gain any meaningful respect via a game online but it can be done. HL2 DM is a great game but the players are some of the most rude people I've ever met online. Almost everywhere you go you've got to contend with someone running their mouths, cussing etc. As I stated above, I ran my own Enemy Territory servers for a few years and we never had to deal with the same level of or lack thereof, of respect. At times though people will listen and you can make friends out of a bad situation. I simply want that ability again. I'd rather talk nicely to someone than to get into a stupid cursing match online. And I must say it again, since I've been muted, I've been cursed at, ridiculed, admonished and had some of the most terrible things said IN GAME at me. Where's the justice in all this?

being cussed it really sucks dude but you don't feed the fire. The more they cuss,the more you beat them up. They will reach the quota and get muted.
No matter what,I think Hl2dm is fairly clean compared to CS, or as cabbage previously mentioned ages ago people on the playstation or xbox live networks.

I hope a decision comes to resolve your current issue but keep your cool and let the gameplay talk. It's really a game after all, and words don't hurt if you don't let it get to you.

My you humilate and headshot again with the freedom of speech enabled.

If only there was another form of communicating ingame besides text.
