I hereby award this thread the prize for the
MOST TERRIFYING
180 DEGREE MISUNDERSTANDING
OF THE YEAR 2012!
My AMBIGUOUS WORDING made you understand the
EXACT OPPOSITE of what I WANTED TO SAY! :-(
What I wrote:
This ban of yours seems to be the only one with an
incomprehensible ban reason -- as opposed to
hundreds of
perfect ban reasons with perfectly matching attached demos.
What you understood:
This ban of yours seems to be the only one with an
incomprehensible ban reason -- as opposed to
OTHER PEOPLE'S hundreds of
perfect ban reasons with perfectly matching attached demos.
What I meant:
This ban of yours seems to be the only one with an
incomprehensible ban reason -- as opposed to
YOUR OTHER hundreds of
perfect ban reasons with perfectly matching attached demos.
I am probably one of the oldest players here and have
seen countless communication problems in both
private life and business life, therefore I'm really
trying to express myself as unambiguously as
possible (except when it's meant to be funny ;-) --
but as one can see here, I still fail from time to time.
:-/
So: Sorry, dmmh, for the the seeming arrogance in
my posting which was supposed to be the exact
opposite of arrogance, namely a bow to your 99 %
flawless bans here.
About my unbanning announcement
I'm sorry if my plans to unban this player were toodmmh wrote:I don't like it when someone dictates me what to do and promiss to unban someone when a demo isn't posted in a certain timeframe.
You're nothing more then anybody else here, last time I checked. Nothing less either, (OFCOURSE!) but it's my opinion it's a bit out of proportion to dictate other admins what to do, and what not, wouldn't you think so?

harsh. :-( My maternal feeli^W^WRobin Hood feelings
got the better of me. I have seen so many of
(IMHO) wrong decisions (from just a bit of slapping
to as much as a permanent ban) based mostly on
emotions (sorry for using the e-word :-}, that I might
have become a bit overprotective.
For this reason (many decisions made in the heat of
the moment), we already do get "dictated"
what to do, namely to
- not ban for more than 3 days in game (imposed
technically), and - to give proper reasons (especially for bans) (requested
many times by Ana/Wursti and other players), and - to supply demos/explanations for bans (generally
deemed "gold standard", I think :-).
Here is what I will do in future:
- I will keep questioning questionable ban reasons
("In dubio pro reo") and I beg other people
for doing the same with my bans, because I know
that I am all but perfect. - (Your voice has been heard, dmmh!) I will NOT unban
a player if the ban is "only" a 3-day ban. This is the
maximal amount of potential injustice I am willing to
bear.
As your request was at least partly based on andmmh wrote:By the way: I asked wurst to de-admin me.

incredible misunderstanding, caused by my faulty
wording, I would like you to reconsider the whole
story and give us one more chance. There might
be a few slight collisions here and there, but each
collision makes the edges rounder and makes us
get along better. :-} <3
And if you think it's currently too bothersome to
administer the game, then you can simply resort to
reducing your admin activities, no need to throw
away God Mode. ;-) Nothing unmanly about revising
(or postponing) a decision, so don't feel pressed to
take this line to the end.

spread mieziness all over the world.
