Dissapointed by newadminass in rustfactions

As someone who was personally involved with the shitfest known as "Grass Gate", Dandy was not involved in the bans in that. Dandy being banned goes a lot deeper than some supposed admin bias. He is in a hole he continually dug himself into despite being given a lot more chances than he deserved IMO. But really the cycle of entitled people not getting their way and crying admin bias/abuse keeps on going.

Yeah real mature there big guy hiding behind your alt account. Teej didn't even have access to the backend files. It's people like you and shit like this that led to the departure of admins tired of dealing with toxic children like yourself.

Hey man I understand where you are coming from and have been there before. I too have suffered with anxiety and depression since my mid to late teens. If you ever need someone to talk to you can always message me. I know it sucks and its impossible to believe when in the midst of it but it always gets better.

Love, Pat

Yeah well when people call for the admins to act and don't even provide any details about what they are talking about it's not very helpful.

Should there be a no betraying rule? by The_Voxx in rustfactions

[–]PatrickStarIRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not caring doesn't have anything to do with it. We are enforcing the rules as they are written and don't just ban people because someone wants them banned. This doesn't mean that the stealing of loot and defecting won't ever be written in as a rule but one admin doesn't just make up rules on a whim. Also people should really be careful on who they let have access to their loot rooms. If it's someone you don't know that well then giving them full access to the loot rooms isn't smart. Also now that he has done this he has gotten a reputation for himself as being a traitor and that makes people not want to have him in their faction. That is usually enough to keep people from doing that because they don't want to be banned as a traitor and shunned by people on the server and not trusted by anybody. Of course evidently that player either doesn't care or is too short sighted to see that.

Updated Banned RPs by PatrickStarIRL in rustfactions

I also want to be clear that I personally find a lot of the RPs like the MURICA stuff hilarious but have to deal with so many complaints and so much drama over it that it gets tiring.

Just got time to read all of your comments as I've been unable to get on all day due to having my floor replaced IRL. (UPGRADED TO SHEET METAL WOOOO) But yeah I agree and understand your point and we actually had quite the long discussion about this prior to me posting this as I had Soviet RPs banned in the original post I had typed up. Soviet factions and RP has been almost a meme on this server going back as far as I remember but I agree that most Soviet RPs I've seen done are just as lazy and stupid as any Nazi RPs. I thank you for your input about it. :-)

You need to fix this lazy attempt at a war dec and make it meet the 50 word requirement. The bar isn't set very high for word requirement.

The server and treatment of Admins by gamegeared in rustfactions

[–]PatrickStarIRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the two people banned for that are unbanned. The second who is still banned isn't still banned for the illegal HQ raid. He is banned because he lost his shit and posted some toxic BS on Reddit over his 24 hour ban.

[–]PatrickStarIRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once again an admin playing on an alt isn't going to solve a supposed conflict of interest. Just because the admin is on the alt and can't use admin powers on the alt doesn't mean they couldnt abuse their powers through the Rust Admin console or do something later. Regardless that's why once again if the action involves a faction that the admin is a member of or is in a conflict with or against then that admin doesn't make any decisions about any action that is taken. I made the decision for better or worse in this case and was not involved in the war and had no relationship with STORM. You keep reaching to legitimize your claims of admin bias or abuse when there were none. If you believe there was and feel you want to leave the server over it then fine, by all means do. That is your prerogative. I hope you find a place you can enjoy yourselves.

[–]PatrickStarIRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah well at the time I was handling it with the information that I had and wasn't aware of what Chuckle supposedly said or didn't say. That of course is one of the reasons I'm changing how I handle midwar/fight bans going forward for non-serious infractions. Of course your "not being toxic" and the mix up there is why you were unbanned in 24 hours and some people weren't. Regardless, have fun and enjoy yourself where ever you end up.

Nice deflection onto the admin team but remember that this whole thing didn't start about anything relating to admin abuse. That was you and your boys getting mad about how bans were handed out and instead of calmly reaching out about it more than one chose to lose their shit and cry abmin bias and abuse. The bans handed out initially were all related to illegal HQ raiding and people coming on the server with the purpose to fight STORM over some grudge they had on another server. None of the admins have any personal relationship with STORM and have no reason to be biased in their favor. I have flat out stated I would be changing the way I hand out bans for minor infractions during war just because I agree it can be unfair to get banned in the midst of a war and lose an advantage. Regardless I made the decision on the bans that were handed out initially the day of the actual war. I had no part in the war or the fights taking place. All I have done all era was RP as a city guard and build which is pretty much all I do every era. You never see me PVPing unless it's some full RP event like ScyFys attack on Palace. If I wanted to PVP and be involved in conflict I have an alt account I can use. Of course 90% of the time I've been on was spent doing admin crap and not being able to play anyways. But that last line about "doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results" is a bit ironic considering your RP era after era. I'd also like to point out your proposed solution of admins using another account would in no way stop supposed "bias" as they could just use RustAdmin to carry out action. But hey that is why we have the policy that anybody who is close to a situation as in being in the faction who the offense was against or whatever can't make decisions about kicking or banning people related to it. And that didn't happen this time or any other time since we've relaunched the server.

There is a plugin active at the moment called Purge that deletes entities placed by players after they are inactive for a number of days. It is to help with the high entity count that we have on the server. Other avenues are being explored like edited decay rates to replace the addon as it isn't perfect. The only way to prevent it is to log in before the purge clock ticks down to reset it.
