Op Abuse
« on: March 05, 2006, 08:45:33 PM »
Tonight I played a game (RR) which I felt was unfair. When expressing my opinion, I was flamed by several memebers, accused of flaming, told I was breaking the rules, and threatened to be kicked by ZZJ several times.

[21:11] <Mcshay> who's going to edit all the Dynamix files?
[21:11] <Mcshay> you?
[21:11] <Sirbomber> If somebody tells me how.
[21:11] * TRIX|LabDuty is now known as TRIX_Rabbit
[21:11] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> i'm goin got regret this but: What?
[21:11] <Sirbomber> Ever play an RR or Midas?
[21:11] <Sirbomber> Compare the Eden base to the Plym base and you'll see what I mean.
[21:11] <MoogleKupoHax> whats a good command that will kill everything on a linux mashine, wipe hard drive clean
[21:11] <MoogleKupoHax> Suse is pissing me off
[21:11] <MoogleKupoHax> it must die
[21:11] <Mcshay> it has nothing to do with eden/ply
[21:11] <Sirbomber> Try /throwoutwindow
[21:11] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> i'll go back to owrking then
[21:12] <Sirbomber> Yes... It does.
[21:12] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> go read some damn books MoogleKupoHax
[21:12] <Arklon> use a magnet
[21:12] <DM-Horus> thats harsh
[21:12] <Sirbomber> It can't be a coincidence that the Eden bases had suck ore and the Plym bases had good ore on two maps.
[21:12] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> i dont have time neither does OPU|hacker to waste on this petty stuff
[21:12] <Mcshay> why in gods name would Dynamix rig it's maps in favor of plymouth?
[21:12] <MoogleKupoHax> well i know fsck
[21:12] <Sirbomber> How should I know?
[21:12] <Sirbomber> Why is Eden so disadvantaged in everything?
[21:13] <Sirbomber> Early in the game they get raped by mics
[21:13] <Sirbomber> Late in the game they get raped by missiles
[21:13] <Sirbomber> It only makes sense their ore sucks too.
[21:13] <DM-Horus> i know what the problem is
[21:13] <TRIX_Rabbit> because therir eden
[21:13] <DM-Horus> dynamix inserted some code into the game vol
[21:13] <DM-Horus> its called get()skillz
[21:13] <Sirbomber> ...
[21:13] <Arklon> ...
[21:13] <TRIX_Rabbit> 4 letters= suxorz
[21:13] <TRIX_Rabbit> ...
[21:13] <Instigator2> LOL
[21:13] <Sirbomber> You try it someday.
[21:13] <TRIX_Rabbit> ???
[21:14] <Instigator2> nice guys
[21:14] <Instigator2> LOL
[21:14] <Sirbomber> You'll see.
[21:14] <DM-Horus> lol
[21:14] <Mcshay> right, it's all a conspiracy
[21:14] <Arklon> doesn't matter why
[21:14] <Arklon> all that matters is
[21:14] <Instigator2> you guys...
[21:14] * TRIX_Rabbit reaserched Ghetto Vehicles
[21:14] <Arklon> THAT IT IS THAT WAY
[21:14] <Instigator2> anti missle defence!
[21:14] <Instigator2> noobs...
[21:14] <TRIX_Rabbit> Increases colony morale and Crunkness at the Club
[21:14] <Arklon> yeah, there's a bug that makes the meteor defense extremely ineffective
[21:14] <Mcshay> anti missle sucks
[21:15] <Arklon> if you shoot a missile right on top of it
[21:15] <Instigator2> its not 100%
[21:15] <Arklon> it won't shoot it down
[21:15] <Instigator2> it says in the manual
[21:15] <Arklon> no matter what
[21:15] <Instigator2> or someitng
[21:15] <DM-Horus> LOL
[21:15] <Arklon> and people usually carpet bomb you with missiles
[21:15] <Arklon> and they like to get your smelters
[21:15] <DM-Horus> carpet bomb?
[21:15] <Arklon> so you have to reset ore routes and everything all over again
[21:15] <TRIX_Rabbit> i'd like to shoot something up...
[21:15] <Instigator2> you even have to research 'better precision' anyway
[21:15] <TRIX_Rabbit> coke
[21:15] <DM-Horus> thats why you dont let your enemy get that far
[21:15] <Arklon> yeah
[21:15] <Instigator2> complainers !!!!
[21:15] <Instigator2> gah
[21:15] <Arklon> and "better precision" still won't help too much
[21:16] <Arklon> Insti, you're only saying that because that midas was rigged in your favor.
[21:16] <TRIX_Rabbit> ive never played a multiplayer game
[21:16] <Sirbomber> Well
[21:16] <Instigator2> ............................................................................
[21:16] <Sirbomber> Who's fault is that?
[21:16] <Instigator2> umm
[21:16] <Arklon> you even got the resources to make stickyfoam units to kill us.
[21:16] <Instigator2> i didnt care to win......................................................
[21:16] <Instigator2> LOL
[21:16] <Instigator2> 3 stickies owned you guys?
[21:17] <Arklon> WE HAD NOTHING
[21:17] <Instigator2> you should have been better
[21:17] <Arklon> ...

Note: This is where Arklon finally gets really mad.

[21:17] <TRIX_Rabbit> stickies roxorz
[21:17] * Instigator2 sigh
[21:17] <Arklon> WE f***ING COULDN'T GET THE f***ING METALS TO MAKE f***ING ATTACK UNITS BECAUSE THE f***ING ORE WAS 50 f***ING MILES AWAY!
[21:17] * TRIX_Rabbit blows up
[21:17] <Sirbomber> Thank you Arklon.
[21:17] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> Arklon cool down

[21:20] <Arklon> My main problem with all that was
[21:21] <DM-Horus> its just a game
[21:21] <Arklon> instead of even BEGINNING to attempt to consider that we're right
[21:21] <Arklon> they just insult us and brag

[21:22] <Sirbomber> But you won't anyways...
[21:22] <Arklon> I wouldn't be nearly as pissed if they didn't insult us over it.
[21:22] <Sirbomber> We think a game is rigged and suddenly we're overreacting while they're insulting us?
[21:22] <DM-Horus> wtf are you even talking about? this whole convo is so off topic and convoluted
[21:22] * TRIX_Rabbit is about to go off topic
[21:22] <Sirbomber> Then we get mad and we're "irrational" and have to "cool off"
[21:22] * creat0r has joined #outpost2

[21:24] * creat0r has quit IRC (Signed off)
[21:24] <Arklon> For insulting us and boasting.
[21:24] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> both of which had the better sense to leave off

[21:24] <stormy> All of you, let's calm down
[21:24] <Arklon> But they had horrible sense to insult us in the first place.

[21:26] <Sirbomber> See what I care
[21:26] <DM-Horus> because youre offtopic for one
[21:26] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> then do it in a f***ing PM
[21:26] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> or the lobby
[21:26] <Sirbomber> And since when is anything off topic?
[21:26] * TRIX_Rabbit is watching patiently
[21:26] <Sirbomber> on topic*
[21:26] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> not spamming up the main chan
[21:26] <DM-Horus> and the fact that youre cussing out other ppl on the chan. you just need to chill
[21:26] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> Sirbomber this is the end of convo. Drop it or be kicked
[21:26] <Sirbomber> I'm not.
[21:26] <stormy> You're not what?
[21:27] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> stormy leave it alone pls
[21:27] <Sirbomber> Insulting insulting anyone...
[21:27] <DM-Horus> its not even worth debating
[21:27] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> yes
[21:27] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> its just a game
[21:27] <stormy> I will stay out of this thien
[21:27] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> cool off and have another

Did I ever flame anyone? No.
Did everyone flame me repeatedly? You bet!

Well... that's all I have to say... I'm sure this won't go over well, but tonight's events already killed a lot of my reasons to even play OP2...

i know we kind of got brutal there, but you really did it to yourselves. all you needed was a chill pill and the concept that you got so worked up over such a small issue made you ripe territory for ripping on. you forgot to paste the earlier part of you and arklon ranting about how the game cheats.

again i restate my point: its just a damn game. it isn't worth getting into a b****fest about. you, as well as other people, were asked to drop it and move on, but you didnt seem to be able to let it go. hence.

Yeah, I'd have to say that both Sirbomber and Arklon were a little bit out of line, let's not see that again. He's right, it was just a game, you don't need to get into a big argument. If anyone was being abusive, it was both of you.

However, Joe, it was not necessary to threaten them with the "I'll kick you" routine everytime you see something going wrong. I think you can be a bit hasty to make decisions. If this kind of behavior keeps continuing, you might end up being the one kicked or banned, not Sirbomber or Arklon. Read the OP rules to find out why.

Either way, everyone needs to cool off and stop acting like they're about 6 years old. The outcome of one game is nothing to get into a big argument about, and these types of outbursts will simply not be tolerated.

In my opinion, both parties were wrong.

hmm... they sure were acting weird, yes, but they were discussing OP2, so they were actually on topic. I only see 1 outburst from Arklon in that log that would be ok for a kick :/

Atleast that is what I can tell from that log. I wasn't there, so I don't really know what was going on :P

hmmm...let me see what it looks like without all the non-related stuff in there and I'll point out all the abusive stuff I see:

[21:11] <Sirbomber> Ever play an RR or Midas?
[21:11] <Sirbomber> Compare the Eden base to the Plym base and you'll see what I mean.
[21:11] <Mcshay> it has nothing to do with eden/ply

[21:12] <Sirbomber> It can't be a coincidence that the Eden bases had suck ore and the Plym bases had good ore on two maps.
[21:12] <Mcshay> why in gods name would Dynamix rig it's maps in favor of plymouth?
[21:12] <Sirbomber> How should I know?
[21:12] <Sirbomber> Why is Eden so disadvantaged in everything?
[21:13] <Sirbomber> Early in the game they get raped by mics

[21:14] <Sirbomber> You'll see.
[21:14] <DM-Horus> lol
[21:14] <Mcshay> right, it's all a conspiracy
[21:14] <Arklon> doesn't matter why
[21:14] <Arklon> all that matters is
[21:14] <Arklon> THAT IT IS THAT WAY

[21:27] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> yes
[21:27] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> its just a game
[21:27] <stormy> I will stay out of this thien
[21:27] <OPU|ZigZagJoe> cool off and have another


Okay, ZZJ, if you're going to tell people to calm down, try to stay calm yourself, or else it ain't gonna work.

Horus, that was just being an ass.  That was just flat out uncalled for in any situation.

If I ever get a chance, I'll tell instigator myself why that part is abusive.

Arklon, I did not see anything abusive about what you said, however I think it might be better for you to try to speak in a calmer manner in a situation such as this

bomber, I have to say of all the people in that piece of convo that you remained the most level headed.  I don't see any instances of flaming anyone or deliberate attempts at getting people rialled (once again my spelling sucks -.- ) up about it.


From what I'm seeing that is relavant to the convo, I have to dissagree with hacker: bomber was not being abusive, but arklon was approaching that line.  They were not off topic for the channel: they were discussing an aspect OF THE GAME.  What I see is an attempt to state an opinion about a possible issue in the coding that is being oppressed by the ops that were present, and two people who were so closed minded to the slight possibility of it that they quit the channel.

Now, as to that issue, I doubt that it has something to do with eden vs plymoth, but instead with colony placement.  If I am not mistaken, all non-LR games that are on the same map have the same colony locations.  Some maps have alternating ore spots (one of the reasons I like fractures so much), but if I'm correct about the map, they are constant in this case.  Usually there are other strategical advantages that are given/forfeited depending on ore distance, despite the fact that not all of them are usefull in all game types.  If you would like, bomber, I am willing to get on hamachi long enough for you to test out your theory some time so that we know for sure what the truth of the situation is.

[19:09:50] [+Mcshay] should be 500 or so if you ask me
[19:10:05] [@Arklon] 4P midas.
[19:10:23] [@Arklon] because I want to finish survivor after this.
[19:10:24] [+Mcshay] someone should make a midas that uses int vehicals to set the time

[19:20:59] [@Sirbomber] Blame Arklon!
[19:21:02] [+Instigator2] ....
[19:21:03] [+Mcshay] hint: change your name

[19:21:19] [+Instigator2] LOL
[19:21:19] • @Sirbomber kicks "King Midas" in the face.
[19:21:22] [@Arklon] That name wasn't funny and didn't make any sense.
[19:21:40] [@Sirbomber] Sticky Midas?
[19:21:47] [@Sirbomber] What in God's name does that mean?
[19:21:58] [@Arklon] Exactly.
[19:22:03] [@Arklon] And don't kick me in the face again.
[19:22:05] [+Instigator2] LOL

[19:38:09] ::: join: (Nightmare24148_) (~Nightmare@CPE-65-30-130-7.wi.res.rr.com)
[19:39:09] [@Sirbomber] Gee, that was fair.
[19:39:17] [+Mcshay] mabe thats why no one plays midas
[19:39:25] [+Mcshay] i wim
[19:39:28] [@Sirbomber] Plym gets ore right next to their smelters, Eden has theirs ffive miles away.
[19:39:32] [@Arklon] "gg"?
[19:39:34] [@Arklon] WHAT THE HELL?
[19:39:36] [@Arklon] THAT WAS f***ING RIGGED
[19:39:38] [@Sirbomber] Maybe nobody plays Midas because insti is a whoreslut.
[19:39:38] [+Instigator2] why did i die...
[19:39:40] [@Sirbomber] That too
[19:39:45] [@Sirbomber] Arky was going to get lava'd.
[19:39:49] [+Mcshay] at mark 250 it ends
[19:39:50] [+Instigator2] it sayed i failed
[19:39:50] [@Sirbomber] Becuase Mcshay had twice your ore.
[19:39:51] [+Instigator2] oh
[19:39:55] [+Instigator2] thats fast
[19:39:56] [@Sirbomber] And the game hates you for shooting me.
[19:39:57] [+Mcshay] yes
[19:40:01] [@Sirbomber] Hah
[19:40:03] [@Sirbomber] Second
[19:40:04] [@Sirbomber] Whoresluts
[19:40:10] [@Arklon] from now on, Plymouth gets low res
[19:40:11] [+Instigator2] i was just messing around guys
[19:40:14] [+Instigator2] sheesh
[19:40:15] [@Sirbomber] Well
[19:40:19] [@Sirbomber] Screw you.
[19:40:20] [@Sirbomber] Again.
[19:40:21] [Nightmare24148_] Oi
[19:40:22] [@Sirbomber] Or RR.
[19:40:29] [@Arklon] RR will be just as rigged
[19:40:31] [+Instigator2] ...
[19:40:33] [+Mcshay] no
[19:40:40] [@Sirbomber] We've done RR
[19:40:41] [+Mcshay] it isn't b/c there is no time limit
[19:40:46] [+Mcshay] and you need rare
[19:40:58] [@Sirbomber] Maybe you just picked a sucky map...
[19:41:01] [@Sirbomber] But who knows
[19:41:06] [@Sirbomber] I'll make a Midas/RR so it won't be rigged.
[19:41:14] [@Arklon] except for Mcshay.
[19:41:17] [@Arklon] Make it rigged for him.
[19:41:21] [+Instigator2] good grief guys
[19:41:22] [@Arklon] Against him, that is.
[19:41:22] [+Mcshay] phh
[19:41:28] [+Instigator2] its not like some one did that on purpose
[19:41:32] [@Sirbomber] Yes
[19:41:34] [@Sirbomber] Yes they did
[19:41:36] [@Arklon] but then Mcshay decided to shoot us.
[19:41:40] [+Instigator2] 1?
[19:41:41] [@Sirbomber] There is NO WAY that was done accidentaly
[19:41:41] [+Instigator2] !?
[19:41:42] [+Mcshay] WHAT?
[19:41:45] [@Sirbomber] Mcshay didn't shoot us
[19:41:49] [@Sirbomber] Instin00b did.
[19:41:51] [+Instigator2] so umm the original makers did that?
[19:41:53] [+Instigator2] serria?>
[19:41:53] [@Arklon] oh, that was Insti
[19:41:57] [@Sirbomber] Yes.
[19:41:58] [+Mcshay] Dynamic
[19:42:04] [@Sirbomber] Dynamix
[19:42:06] [+Mcshay] Dynamix*
[19:42:18] [@Sirbomber] I know rodents that could make a fairer map than that.
[19:42:31] [@Sirbomber] Mcshay's ore was given to him on a silver platter.
[19:42:31] [@Arklon] I'd rather play survivor than Rigas or Rigged Race
[19:42:48] [@Sirbomber] Arky and i didn't get to ours until mark 100.
[19:42:56] [@Sirbomber] We haven't done rr yet.
[19:43:00] [@Sirbomber] RR is rigged against everyone.
[19:43:10] [+Mcshay] huh?
[19:43:12] [@Arklon] well
[19:43:17] [@Sirbomber] What bars did you all have?
[19:43:20] [+Mcshay] 2
[19:43:20] [@Arklon] survivor going until past mark 1400 is better
[19:43:35] [+Mcshay] but we have played survivor 20million times
[19:43:39] [@Sirbomber] GAH
[19:43:42] [@Sirbomber] You had a two bar!
[19:43:44] [@Sirbomber] ...
[19:43:52] [@Arklon] I also had a two bar
[19:43:56] [+Instigator2] umm
[19:44:00] [+Instigator2] what did you have Sirbomber!?>
[19:44:05] [@Sirbomber] 2 bar.
[19:44:07] [@Sirbomber] BUT
[19:44:12] [+Mcshay] i don't see why everyone is getting worked up over this...
[19:44:15] [+Mcshay] it's just a game
[19:44:18] [+Instigator2] i know...
[19:44:18] [@Sirbomber] Mine was twice as far from my ase as yours
[19:44:42] [@Sirbomber] I'm getting worked up because I hate it when I find out I'm playing a rigged map.
[19:44:47] [@Sirbomber] I thought all of ours were far away...
[19:44:56] [@Sirbomber] THen I saw the Plym ore.
[19:45:17] [@Arklon] La Co survivor?
[19:45:21] [+Mcshay] any Dynamix map is usualy made bad, it's a fact of life
[19:45:22] [@Sirbomber] Hmph
[19:45:24] [@Sirbomber] I don't know.
[19:45:39] [@Sirbomber] I'll make a midas/rr.
[19:45:43] [@Sirbomber] My maps are good.
[19:45:50] [@Arklon] they should've used that map with the devil head in the center.
[19:45:51] [@Sirbomber] Usually.
[19:45:54] [@Arklon] BUT NOO
[19:45:55] [@Sirbomber] Yeah.
[19:46:01] [+Instigator2] that one is great!!
[19:46:06] [+Instigator2] there is so many disasters
[19:46:07] [@Sirbomber] Conservative Christians would be on 'em like... well, you know...
[19:46:07] [@Arklon] oversensitive Christians had to shoot down that idea!
[19:46:09] [+Instigator2] lets do that one
[19:46:12] [@Sirbomber] Uhh
[19:46:13] [@Sirbomber] Insti
[19:46:20] [@Arklon] Bore Hole is s***ty
[19:46:23] [@Arklon] it was made in 5 minutes
[19:46:24] [@Sirbomber] That has disaters because ZZJ gave it disasters
[19:46:24] [@Sirbomber] Yeah
[19:46:27] [+Mcshay] unless your in the center
[19:46:27] [@Sirbomber] But the map is good.
[19:46:36] [+Instigator2] yes
[19:46:37] [@Arklon] because Dynamix made it
[19:46:39] [+Instigator2] its a good map
[19:46:39] [@Sirbomber] Map = good
[19:46:41] [@Sirbomber] Mission = suck
[19:46:58] [@Sirbomber] Are you rehosting or what?
[19:47:08] [@Arklon] game type?
[19:47:12] [@Sirbomber] Let's try RR.
[19:47:14] [+Mcshay] k
[19:47:18] [@Sirbomber] Then we'll do LoS or normal SR...
[19:47:19] [@Sirbomber] No Survi.
[19:47:23] [@Sirbomber] I'm all survi-ed out.
[19:47:23] [+Instigator2] i cant

[20:11:07] [@Sirbomber] Great...

[20:11:22] [@OPU|ZigZagJoe] i'm goin got regret this but: What?
[20:11:22] [@Sirbomber] If somebody tells me how.
[20:11:31] [@Sirbomber] Ever play an RR or Midas?
[20:11:42] [@Sirbomber] Compare the Eden base to the Plym base and you'll see what I mean.
[20:11:42] [@MoogleKupoHax] whats a good command that will kill everything on a linux mashine, wipe hard drive clean
[20:11:52] [@MoogleKupoHax] Suse is pissing me off
[20:11:54] [@MoogleKupoHax] it must die
[20:11:55] [+Mcshay] it has nothing to do with eden/ply
[20:11:57] [@OPU|ZigZagJoe] i'll go back to owrking then
[20:11:58] [@Sirbomber] Try /throwoutwindow
[20:12:05] [@OPU|ZigZagJoe] go read some damn books MoogleKupoHax
[20:12:06] [@Sirbomber] Yes... It does.
[20:12:12] [@Arklon] use a magnet
[20:12:18] [@DM-Horus] thats harsh
[20:12:19] [@Sirbomber] It can't be a coincidence that the Eden bases had suck ore and the Plym bases had good ore on two maps.
[20:12:22] [@OPU|ZigZagJoe] i dont have time neither does OPU|hacker to waste on this petty stuff
[20:12:32] [+Mcshay] why in gods name would Dynamix rig it's maps in favor of plymouth?
[20:12:33] [@MoogleKupoHax] well i know fsck
[20:12:39] [@Sirbomber] How sohuld I know?
[20:12:59] [@Sirbomber] Why is Eden so disadvantaged in everything?
[20:13:04] [@Sirbomber] Early in the game they get raped by mics
[20:13:09] [@Sirbomber] Late in the game they get raped by missiles
[20:13:17] [@Sirbomber] It only makes sense their ore sucks too.
[20:13:22] [@DM-Horus] i know what the problem is
[20:13:24] [TRIX_Rabbit] because therir eden
[20:13:36] [@DM-Horus] dynamix inserted some code into the game vol
[20:13:44] [@DM-Horus] its called get()skillz
[20:13:50] [@Sirbomber] ...
[20:13:53] [@Arklon] ...

[20:14:09] [@Sirbomber] You'll see.
[20:14:12] [@DM-Horus] lol
[20:14:23] [+Mcshay] right, it's all a conspiracy
[20:14:32] [@Arklon] doesn't matter why
[20:14:34] [@Arklon] all that matters is
[20:14:34] [+Instigator2] you guys...
[20:14:35] • TRIX_Rabbit reaserched Ghetto Vehicles
[20:14:37] [@Arklon] THAT IT IS THAT WAY
[20:14:41] [+Instigator2] anti missle defence!
[20:14:42] [+Instigator2] noobs...
[20:14:52] [TRIX_Rabbit] Increases colony morale and Crunkness at the Club
[20:14:54] [@Arklon] yeah, there's a bug that makes the meteor defense extremely ineffective
[20:14:55] [+Mcshay] anti missle sucks
[20:15:06] [@Arklon] if you shoot a missile right on top of it
[20:15:09] [+Instigator2] its not 100%
[20:15:11] [@Arklon] it won't shoot it down
[20:15:13] [+Instigator2] it says in the manual
[20:15:14] [@Arklon] no matter what
[20:15:15] [+Instigator2] or someitng
[20:15:17] [@DM-Horus] LOL
[20:15:24] [@Arklon] and people usually carpet bomb you with missiles
[20:15:28] [@Arklon] and they like to get your smelters
[20:15:33] [@DM-Horus] carpet bomb?
[20:15:35] [@Arklon] so you have to reset ore routes and everything all over again
[20:15:37] [TRIX_Rabbit] i'd like to shoot something up...
[20:15:40] [+Instigator2] you even have to research 'better precision' anyway
[20:15:41] [TRIX_Rabbit] coke
[20:15:43] [@DM-Horus] thats why you dont let your enemy get that far

now there is some comedy!  lol, kicking him in the face...anyway, yeah, I have to say that there was a bit of pre-game abuse there (Who the hell ejects someone because of their chosen screen name?) and bomber was off base with his chosen name for instigator, but I still see some of the same issues as before popping up earlier.

I agree, and when things like this happen, and you're angry, it's really really hard to keep yourself from flaming people. I say that if this happens again, we mod the chan, and give the ppl a timeout or something... idk... just something that will make them stop and think (and yes, I need to stop and think sometimes also, we all do)

Perhaps we should move to a network with halfops?

We are not moving to another network. At least I am not. If someone thinks, it would be good to move, they shall move. NOone can keep me from staying on Quakenet. I'm fed up with moving.

And as I see it, there is nothing wrong with regulars getting ops. Or did any of us abuse the power yet? Its not an issue. Its just fine, because it makes people stay active.

As for the topic:
everybody has the right to complain about things they don't like. If then someone comes and takes this right, an agressive reaction is understandable. Would have been a good idea to just let the conversation go. If its Dynamix's fault there's anyway nothing we can do about it.

At this time there is no need to move. Although Quakenet can be pretty crappy at times, we already have everything established and it would do more harm than good to move everyone.

As for the op situation, I think it's gotten a bit overboard, we should probably reconsider it. However, this isnt the right thread for that.

The only person that is being accused of op abuse in this thread is a member that has had an op for a long time, and is as far as I know the only one to actually have abused his op since regulars started receiving ops. The rules clearly state that if you abuse your op once you lose it. Yet he still has it.

As for the others, their acting stupid but none of them abused their ops.

If you need to have ops to stay active, then you are staying active for the wrong reason.  I have nothing against regulars having ops, just with over 50% of the channel being ops.  However, as hacker said, this isn't the thread to discuss this.

This has been said so many times, so I'm going to capitalize it.

THE GAME IS NOT BALANCED.   THE ORE IS NOT EVEN.    THE START LOCATIONS ARE NOT EVEN.
Outpost 2 is a colony game, NOT another C&C clone!
THERE IS GOING TO BE MAJOR IMBALANCES BECAUSE OF THIS!
As for Eden being "Disadvantaged"
They are NOT as bad as people make it out they are.
Eden is almost unkillable once it gets Thor Hammer Tiggers en masse.
Eden was originally designed to be expensive on the ore.   Their combat units cost more then Plymouth's.
While it is agreed that the laser is not good early in game, thats why you rush Railguns and EMPs!   Failure to do so results in your death.
There are other tactics you can use, but I'm not going to go into them.   Figure them out yourself.
Eden requires you to be careful.   It requires you to use tactics.
In the early game, they CANNOT win a shooting war with Plymouth.   Find alternatives.   Harrass.   Get them to fight other people.
All else fails, PLAY PLYMOUTH.

While it's still a game - people in general tend to take things overboard when they're angry. True, SirBomber got a little riled (That's how it's spelled CK9 :D) up, as well as Arklon and McShay - but you people all just need to chill.

Horus, you're cool and can be offensive when you don't mean to be. I for one can tell when you're being funny and when you're being an ass (which isn't that often). Other people can't. I like to keep my cynicalist attitude for face-to-face conversations where my facial expressions and the context can do the storytelling for me.

ZZJ - You're always quick to jump to the gun and pull the trigger. There's really a problem there, this might not be my place, but you need to chill just as much as Arklon and SirBomber do- especially since you're part of the OPU Staff, that's all the more reason for you to show maturity and exemplify the OP Rules - if you don't, what are the regulars with OPs supposed to do? You need to lead by example, and THEN and only THEN with force. I think you should in no way be exempt to the OP rules and when you violate the rules, you too should be 'disbarred' (in legal terms), in laymans terms, you gotta go - of course, only in the hypothetical situation.

CK9 - The 'issue' hasn't become an 'issue' to my knowledge. Granted, I've been absentee since the week of reunion, but I surely would've been aware of a Columbine-reminiscent scenario in our channel - where someone with OPs goes and bans everyone. That'd be an issue. This minor stuff isn't an issue yet, and until it is, it's keeping everyone's morale high and all that shiznit. Good for everyone. In the words of Sl0vi - that are often overlooked and should be kept in mind:

Horrid spelling. But excellent methodical thinking.

I'll post some more of my thought process when I review the topic further.
