Spring RTS Engine

heh, I was banned by Noize for spamming with my alt and Mute dodging after the smurf account I was arguing with decided it would be a good idea to lag and send the same thing 6 times. Anyway, That alt got muted for that, And then I got banned for Spamming. Which I'm still not sure how I actually spammed...
Anyways, Can someone tell me:
a) How long my ban lasts for, or,
b) where I can find how long my ban lasts for, or,
c) add "You are banned for X minutes and Y seconds" when you try to join. Its rather annoying being told you are banned for "Rather a long time".

Anyways. meh.

You tell other ppl not to spam and you do it yourself with a smurf account... well that's not really nice!

[20:19:32] <somespammingguy> titchytims alt is back
[20:19:34] <somespammingguy> \o/

This is drone btw...

I had a couple of days in mind.

Odd, but I'm just not picking up any hint of remorse, penance, or even recognition from Drone that what he was doing was wrong... maybe it just doesn't come across well in this medium.
(not bloody likely, though)

As IO pointed out, My wireless decided that would be a fun time to lag, And decided to send the same packet about 7 times. My wireless connection decides to lag a the most useless times.

sure, I know I did something wrong, I wasn't disputing that. I was just asking how long its actually for.

Could we please handle unmute/ban requests via PM's? Thank you.

Actually its just a request for the admins to put a "Banned till:" stamp on the Bans. Not just some vague "Quite some time" or "Whenever".

Although, An unban would be nice. I probebly shouldn't of made some alts to argue with to pass the time anyway

its admins discretion. you don't need to know, every time you futiley try to log in you should be reminded of your former idiocy

yeah you made an account called somespammingguy and you spammed by accident?
thats just horrific

Rofl

Yup. Do you think I wanted to be banned?

Also, The reason behind the name is that it makes you sound like a noob :D

Lock him up and throw away the key!

I think you did want to get banned drone...

[19:20:03] <[FMC]Drone_Fragger> heh. Theres my 3rd alt today
[19:20:17] <[FMC]Drone_Fragger> Just to see if it earns a ban for no reason.
[19:20:22] * Channel message: <[WarC]NOiZE> has kicked <[FMC]Drone_Fragger> from server (reason: Spamming isn't allowed not even with a smurf account, Banned for some time!)

I cut out the spammy bits ^^

You fail to add in the fact that the name of the third alt was "mewantsunban". I was seeing if someone would complain to noize that one of the mindless spammers (titchyalt or something) had come back and was going to spam again.

Which someone did btw, Just before I was kicked and banned :O

riggghhtttt....

You made an alt, you spammed, you acted like a pratt, and got banned.

Your own dam fualt! Regardless of what escuses you can come up with, you still did it.

[hint] Well Drone you can always unplug your modem for an hour or so if you're aching to play... [/hint]

Oh, the irony!

Drone it really sounds like you're really really asking for a cap to the brain pan.

From your action you REALLY need a ban. Stop doing dumb things.

Spring bans aren't temporary, they need to be manually removed. Current policy is that you're either banned until the banning moderator feels nice or you're banned until you apologize for what you did. If you're banned by an admin who is nice enough to make it an intentional temp ban they can add the ban duration lenght into your ban discription.

[edit] If a ban is unreported and has no description I assume it's a ban until the bannee asks to be unbanned, in which case it will be removed by whoever sees the request first.
