If you have been banned and you feel that it was unfair, write your unban request including the required information:
- Your player name.
- Date and time you were banned.
- Server name.

If you like Imgur, you might like Reddit as well, assuming you haven't already found out about it.

Haha, I know of Reddit, of course, but I try to only peek and then slam my laptop shut out of fear I'll get lost in the infinity of some sub thread.

Use the image code on this forum which can be referenced by clicking on img tag right above the preview buton on the quick reply box at the bottom of your page.


Cheers, I'll try that.  I found imgur recently and have since spent far too much time there - that site reaffirmed a belief I already held true; that cats are adorable creatures.

What do you guys recommend as a good way to upload images onto this forum?
I think there was a thread about this but I can't find it - it might be gone.

Cheers.

Good luck!
Hope it all works out.

Yeah cheers I've bookmarked that one and I'll have a good read of it in the coming days.  If anyone's gone through the change from 7 to 10 and found any crucial steps that need to be navigated carefully please let me know. 

Cheers

I just got the download and will change over this week. 
Any advice for changing to Window 10?

Really it's a bit of a grey area, but on many maps like Kursk and Kharkov, the runway takes off very close to enemy action. The pilot taking off has an option to turn away from that to gain altitude. If they don't turn away and instead head for enemy action, they are fair game even before they start firing.

Here's a thread on that - with a link to a previous thread - from an earlier discussion:

A couple of nice videos, I enjoyed watching them.

He's had a second chance on this server and so far he's doing fine.

#402 Re: Videos and Screenshots » Posting Finally » 2015-07-29 03:55:20

I've been asking Nin to post videos for months.  We see what we see when we are playing, and now we can compare that to his vids - hopefully it's the same.

Yeah, driving vehicles to planes does two negative things.  Firstly, it takes a vehicle that could be used by another player in battle.  Secondly, leaving vehicles parked on the runway is a hazard for planes taking off.  Battle of Britain is different of course, but even on that map we should be careful about where we park vehicles.

I'll need to put aside a little time to read that, but, as a history major, I'm always interested in origin theories.

Cool mate, glad it worked out.  Thanks for uploading the pics.

Hi Mussels,

Yeah I got the accusation that he's changing kit three times over a short distance and that's why I said it looks suspicious.  Since my video capture stopped working I take a lot of screenshots too, But screenshots are not as convincing as video since there are gaps between shots where a dropped kit could be picked up.  However, I'd probably agree and ban him if I were a RtR admin. 

I'm not sure who the RtR admins are ...

#409 Re: Report Abuse » Cuckoloo using class switch hack » 2015-07-25 04:32:31

It does look suspicious but not 100% convincing. 
What server was this on?

#410 Re: BF1942 Discussion » BF1942 Tips & Tricks » 2015-07-24 18:07:46

You've got to type !ignorewins in the in game chat field. 
But then you wouldn't know when I see a tank, soldier, plane, ship, tank again, another ship, roger that, I'm moving up, CHECK YOUR SIX! sorry TK.

No, clearly what berlin needs is planes. And also PT boats in the river.


And a sub!!

Does that turn off admin/server messages too though?
It would not be a great idea for newbies to be without admin messages, they might find themselves banned and not realise why.

In two days it will be an old thread and soon forgotten. 

Unless, of course, it needs more added to it. 

Though I'm sure you'll be good and this thread will just fade away into distant memories...;

#414 Re: Server Ban Appeals » possible unban » 2015-07-22 17:08:39

No. Let's keep this thread open. If you are true to your word it will disappear into the recesses of history.  If you let us down, then your banishment will be the final written word.

#416 Re: Feedback » TK autokick threshold (Simple USA) » 2015-07-22 13:57:58

I usually use if for players who I know and know wouldn't intentionally TK, and I ALWAYS use it if it was my fault - like it I jumped in front of someone that was obviously about to shoot.

My language was too harsh and insulting.  I should have taken a softer tone.  I'm sorry if I insulted you.
