Admin

as for people kicking you off a server, tastyspleen has MULTIPLE servers you can go 1v1 on.

Like I said, we DID have to go to a different server in NY, but it didn't have the map hunter wanted to play, and we had to do that because some people decided they NEEDED to 2v2.

it's hard to be a "good admin" by everyone's standards.. I feel like I'm either being too strict, or too lax.. I just try to mediate things while avoiding situations like forum drama over me kicking them, or complaining to quadz in irc.

I always liked the whole laissez-faire attitude of tastyspleen. You can say what you want and do what you want so long as it's within reasonable bounds. Some servers you can't say anything about anyone (And I'm not talking about just quake 2 servers.) To me, a good admin is someone who thinks for the players and not himself (duh), but is ALSO actually reasonable and will listen to complaints by all players, even if they don't like them. But I can't really convince anyone that I'm any of those qualities; so I guess that the issue here is trust, and I guess some people just don't trust me. Being fair, I see where you're all coming from, and I think that's cool. 

Something else... I use haunted the vast majority of the time on t4-noalias. All the people who LOVE their secondary aliases, whether it be Near>, hect0r, nubcakes, etc., none of them identify as much with how haunted does to EmmaWatson'sBF. It's been my name in irc for a year and a half, and there are far more references on this site between my two names... yet I still use haunted on noalias. I even saw Slugs ask fader yesterday if he was me in ts-live, on t4-noalias if memory serves me correctly.

I have never taken a strong stance with this, but, you guys are wrong to be playing on t4-noalias with your secondary names. I don't understand what's so important about fighting for your right to do the ONE thing that server is supposed to accomplish; alias-free play. I hate responses like, "it's not a big deal, everyone knows it's me"... when in actuality, if it's not a big deal then just go to a different server or change your name!!!
[...]
Here's the thing though..... I can stop aliasing on t4-noalias, without a doubt. I'll go ahead and start being very strict about this, to see how it goes over(warning, maybe another warning, kick), and that's that. I'll go ahead and make a thread notifying the lowering of tolerance on this server, and let everyone know in IRC. Obvious aliases on t4-noalias... such as "yousuck" "umad?" "ahLICKSfeet" etc. will be warned/kicked without any consideration that it's their real alias......

 

Well, I've been using this name for about a year and half (like you) and most everyone knows it's me. (Why slugs didn't know; I have no idea. He's played me tons of times with me using that name.) Mostly the thing I have with aliases is if they try to keep themselves completely secret, like they have something to hide. I don't mind people who use a different name, but WILL answer to "who are you?" But the thing with the noalias server is people shouldn't HAVE to do that! I don't think I've ever gone on the noalias server using a name that wasn't like <Near or whatever, because I know the rules, and I know you're not supposed to do that.

fader acts like an annoying immature kid all the time around here

Really Mr. "I own everyone in this server in 1v1, therefore I'm right"?

Fader,

I commend you on the way you went about this and the way you handled the responses. 

You may not get to be a admin now, but I see you now as more mature than I had thought of you before.
