I find that most people that claim to be smarter than average, and strongly believe so, typically fall right into the "average" category. Not dumb mind you, just average.
REALLY smart folks, seem to be humble of their gifts.
I personally, fall lower than average, and am quite comfortable there. Even if I was smarter than "average" folks, which I am pretty sure I am NOT, I cant see what I would gain, by telling them so. It should be sufficient, to have the gift of that higher intelligence, and use the gift. A gift seems a crappy sword. Even if it is sharp as hell.
I got a weird way of looking at life. Sometimes Vodka helps.

Heya Z!
I hope there are more admins that would warn/kick/ban for Players that have any disruptive purpose. A player, calling out "nigger" in game, simply gave you a personal insight of their mind, (small) in few words. Which leaves you an advantage. You have some clue to their psyche. ALWAYS an advantage.
It will go on until the end of humanity. Sad but true. My belief Z is for every shithead, there are 10 humans. I like that ratio even recognizing 10% is such a high percentage of ignorance. And yes, there seems to be an "IGNORANT MAGNET" for this server. And for obvious reasons.
Thanks for all the efforts on your part. I always enjoy when you are playing. You are a very good addition to the BF community.

During this event the bots will be disabled, after a lot of requests and feedback from many of you. The decision was to disable bots when number of players on server guarantees fun game for everybody, which is on afternoons and evenings. Thanks to tuia we can finally do it.
We organize it as a try, If we see that you guys like it we'll host more events with NO BOTS.
See you in game!

Got my thumbs UP and every digit i own, pointing UPWARD hoping for a repeat NO BOTS weekend???
Did the results indicate success? I was on late Saturday afternoon when 31 others were playing. THAT was a good sign.

I suppose if you are going to trash an admin, might as well pick Rak, one of the nicest and straight up admins there are. THAT should make your accusations more valid. Fortunately, most of the community here, already knows the character and integrity of Raketen. I just wish he would stop KICKING MY ASS in game. Dammit!

A short one. From my Father. Now passed.
I believe this was in Ardennes? After days of fighting they found a damaged house to rest inside. There a case of wine was found. They each took bottles and my Father had never drank wine beyond a glass. He got his first drunk there, only to wake from the fog and find he was alone in the house. He found his brothers walking out of town on the dirt road and rejoined. With a headache. He told me it scared the heck out of him not knowing what had happened.
He told very few stories, unless you knew HOW to ask. I miss him and wish he was alive now that I am older and wiser, to KNOW how to ask him again.
I have quite a few pictures he took from North Africa, to The Bulge where he completed his tour. And I have his medals. And a few of his memories.

Maybe time to revise it, It's not your case or Paul or Vert  ect...    Is what I was saying !!!

PS:  Never seen a admin kick or ban for score,  apples and oranges  !!!

I am learning Dak and my comment was for humor, NOT to reduce what you said at all. I always enjoy playing when you are on. I know how you are honest and straight up. One of the GOOD folks no doubt. And yes some admins may not be working when they are needed, I just have not been a witness to it, except when I MAKE THE MISTAKES and dont see what happened or I missed a help message that was typed by another player. Or I miss some douche that did his business, then boogies out the door. I know my errors but will try to improve and keep good folks like yourself, LONG TIME players I might add, having a good time and even a slight good social part too. SiMPLE as other servers is always evolving. I hope it evolves toward the place that all folks wish to come play. If we use Sunshines idea, we get to elevate further in the medication part, upgrading to amphetamines! She must be a hoot!!!
Apology Dak if you took it the wrong way or I was unclear. I get sick of the children here or the adults, age wise at least, whom reduce their actions to adolescence, for whatever they feed from it. As the game ages, most either GROW UP for the first time in their lives, or if we are lucky enough, they die off from attrition. Still hope to see you around and know you are moving up to BF5.

Exactly, some admins kick players for having higher score, some don't care about rule-breaking, some are offensive etc. Why should they have admin privileges anymore?

The admins that still remote the game can do so mucht and cant be 24/24.  Just saying many admins are M I A and could leave there admin ringhts knowing that they will use it only 1 or twice a month only when they play and wont remote anymore.

I dont want to mixt apples and oranges, It was only a sugestion for them ( admins )   Ark ???  big_smile

Heya Dak! Just FYI, not all admins have remote access, and limited in game command access. I have not ever, not once, been in a game, where an admin kicked someone because of a score. I play almost every day for at least a few games, good nights play for a few hours. I am not a great player but I do pay attention to what admins are doing, most of the time, (R+R  S/W) and I believe they are straight up folks. You are possibly right some of the admins, once or twice a month however the ones I see when playing, made me want to remain here at this server, over other servers I have played. The admins that are on seem to work hard some evenings and others,........ they can play like everyone else. I swear the moon phase affects the young and fucking stupid. Those nights admins work hard. The insanity of even needing any admins at all, is simply a result of having so many humans,................ fucking stupid!!  They play for satisfaction, of WHICH emotion, to play chaotic and disruptive, in order to feel good. That good feeling comes from where? What quadrant in the brain? Cant fix stupid?

THAT is the part to fix so BF42 will not even need admins. Tuia is now going to allow sedation, through on line Librium osmosis, in game, for those select folks, whom require additives to maintain harmony in their cranium, and they can remain playing even as we find them drooling in a corner, near an ammo box, speaking to their shoes. Admins have access to the medicine cabinet. No ban required. Cant behave socially awkward, when one is well sedated.
There. Fixed that one for ya. **Pours a comfy drink**

Aint Utopia a great place to be.

The habitual trolls, and then the others who routinely make bad choices.

Recent non-trolling type:

1 - after being killed, he changes team for a tk
2 - has an uncontrollable urge to teamwound
3 - despite the base warns, can't help himself

You are correct Z these players do indeed ruin the game and have no serious desire to compete anyways. I will always hope they mature but it happens less than it should. You always HAVE helped the Admins in game and if more regular players can help alert the Admins to the douche bags, I am sure they will work to warn/kick/ban or one of my faves, continuous !kill which bores the hell out of em and usually, after time, they give up being unable to disrupt the game any longer.

***POURS ya top shelf adult beverage***

Today i was playing at the main server and there was one player asking to get a 9 days of ban without reason, he was actually spaming saying: give me a 9 days ban.

there was an admin (hilly) and i typed hey just give him a permanent ban.

Also today we have this new player/troll who admitted what he did without saying sorry.....

By seeing this i think that trolls have reached the next level, that´s why i ask admins to be more tough.

Hilly has bunches of experience and I believe he is going to do the right thing. An asshat, is an asshat. Asking for a 9 day ban, indicates an individual, likely in the age range of 6 to 11.  I do not think Hilly would ban someone because they ask for the ban. He was likely laughing at the pure absurdity of the child. You may well be right Z, the trolls/spammers/useless folks might be at a new level. The folks here, will match that level and I expect maintain the server and game still. I do know that the Admins will try hard. And honest.

#327 Re: Server Ban Appeals » Banned for being too good » 2019-10-09 01:55:52

I believe the key word was "hatred".
And I did not say the speech should be limited, only that hatred in any form, socially speaking, has NO benefit to anyone. Even the haters fail to recognize the change in human condition, from such beliefs. Influence of any speech, is subject to the receiver and how it is interpreted. The tool of the Despot.
Hatred is a LEARNED behavior and not in humans throughout adolescence until social behaviors begin to form. That pretty much says it all in one sentence. Nobody is born with hatred.
Except maybe my ex wife.
OK I am certain she is the one exception.

People come on don't you see this is exactly what the racist wants!  You are all now talking about him and the things he says and he is sat back thinking he is so important that you all spend your time in this way.
I personally would have banned him totally sometime ago along with a few others for their actions here and in game but "not my circus not my monkeys", but it is the reason I don't hang around here much anymore.

As Bud points out Tuia has done a lot of work in keeping this game alive and I certainly do not hold him responsible for the views of others or what they type in game or in forum.  I would say however that all of this good work that he has done is now being spoilt be these uneducated fools and it will eventually kill this game off completely.

I have really enjoyed my gaming here on simple and I thank Tuia and you all for the opportunity but when it ceases to be fun its time to stop.

I will still pop in for the occasional game just for giggles if it is still here but having shut down my servers a few weeks ago I think my time with BF1942 is done.

Best of luck to you all and I wish you well.



Dink, you are not only 100% correct on the above, see how this "Ban Appeal" has gone so far off track, its unrecognizable as an appeal. Obviously.........its not a ban appeal. The degradation you notice is recognized by more folks. And it is real. Tuia and SSK have both worked very hard to keep this game alive, as YOU have too Dink. I tip the hat to everyone that has dedicated so much of life, to this damned GAME! (And there are many that deserve the thanks!) Many folks (Myself ESPECIALLY!!!!) have you to thank over the years, for your help, guidance and "fixin the stuff" along with the camaraderie and sore faced laughs.
Just remember Dink, SiMPLE has indeed been a "welcome" to "oddities" shall we say and even in game grey statements that are political  and not in the direction of the 99% of the humans on this planet. THANK God I might add. For the 99%!!!  So there IS INDEED some responsibility for the breeding of the statements and dark comments and the path of the Forum. Its encouraged. I know of NO other servers anywhere myself, with these motives. Reap the sowing of the seeds of the politics.
  We sure do hope to catch you when you do appear time to time. Now we just have to figure out how to getcha into the R+R server. I know.......no CTF.....
So in closing Dink, publicly I wanted to THANK YOU, for more than I can even know, let alone type here, of the help you have given me personally over the years, the PAIN IN THE ASS I have been and for my crappy computer and components that you wished......you were not helping me with. And all the damned STUPID questions you helped with. And all the OTHER folks you have helped, on your own time, with NO expectations of anything other than getting us up and running.
See Dink, one of your last actions at SiMPLE, is to take a drawn out thread, turning it into a "Goodbye" and "THANK YOU" all in one!! Your seed have been sown Dink. Hope you recognize your efforts and know the truth. May you FIND the "FUN" you have ceased to be experiencing.
THANKS MAN!!!!!!!

PS: My thanks to Dink, is singular because of his departure. I know full well, just HOW many other folks I thank too. You are all appreciated!

#329 Re: Server Ban Appeals » Banned for being too good » 2019-10-07 16:24:34

To use "Freedom of Speech" to defend hatred, belies reality.
This is not a difficult concept to comprehend.
Truth, remains the truth, regardless of ones belief. That is the purity of truth.
Hatred has not, nor will it ever, benefit humanity.
Ever.
Free speech of hatred, is a poison for all humanity and it always has been. And always shall be. And it will also always be present in humans. The choices have been offered since the beginning of time. And there are only 2 choices to make.
