While this was the first time i've been kicked/banned from their pub for "cheating," I have also been kicked before for quick switching while trying my absolute best not too. It seems some of those guys have more fun sitting in spec and policing their server than actually playing the game. Every time I play there, there are 4-5 guys in spec watching me waiting for me to slip-up once, and I'm kicked the instant that happens.CharlieGiteau wrote:You know, I really wish I didn't have to, but if I didn't take care of the situation, they were going to kick you. I was talking to them in vent about how its just a natural reaction and how it used to be a benefit. Some still don't believe the update fixed it even though the thread from steam was posted on the forums. So I was in vent telling them how you were just doing it time to time and was really trying not to. Narc was the same way last night. As for your name, the server plugin must not have liked one of the characters you were using; the server changed it, not us : PseaN wrote:I just want to quick switch in pubs.
STOP TELLING ME I CANT CHARLIE!
...and they changed my name to Nade_catcher last night when I pubbed in there, too.
There was another time when Rob was playing on Carta_v3 and I was also in spectate. Had to adamantly assure the other admin he was legit and not skipping that reload animation.
Honestly that's probably what most people get a short ban for, the whole quick switching thing. I even catch myself still doing it from time to time. I had to kick KarlTheShortBusDriver because he was simply being, no pun intended, defiant. Which led to him being disrespectful, and that ultimately led to him being kicked. Since I've become an admin, I have yet to even hand out a 5 min ban.
All in all, I know it can be frustrating to be called a cheater. Like I said before, there are still a select few that complain about me and end up either rage quitting or going in spectate and recording me. I'm just so damn tired of it myself and I know that's how some of you feel when you join up to pub. I have a feeling that I'll end up out of there pretty soon.
