Admin Abuse, involving banning

I am sR -> The Major
on Sunday 2/04/07 i was baned at about 9 30 pm by the sR Admin Useful Idiot, i am still un aware of why he would ban his own member but i am still unable to enter the CSS Assault server at this time,
the reason i THINK he did it was from a flash i threw at a door and missed, 10 seconds later i was banned from the Server

Another Reason for this posting besides the fact i got banned, is that i had no warning of what i did wrong or any thing i said that might have been inappropriate

Sorry to break it to ya bro, but I'm not an admin (though it would be a nice thought lol)...What alias were you under? If I was there then maybe I can help in the "investigation", but when I played tonight I only saw one person get banned, and it was only a 5 min. temp ban.

No problem good sir, it's actually more of a compliment heh. But as I am not an admin, I won't respond to this topic anymore!

*whoosh*

I wasn't the banning admin either. I don't recall the name that you were using, nor do I think I was on at the time. We'll look into it for you and get it sorted out.

z,

instead of calling 'admin abuse' off the bat, just ask why you were banned. The admins around here are usually pretty even-tempered and fair (other than me, and they don't let me on assault).

As for banning our own members, it happens when it is warranted - sR members have been banned more than once. If it is not warranted or it is a mistake, it will be cleared up. Please be patient.

You were banned for 7 days for team flashing on CT right out of spawn... You made sure they hit every player on our team... On top of of that Myself and Useful idiot had already been warning people about nade/Flash/Smoke Spamming and the next round you did it right into your teams faces...

Considering the fact that you often ware the sR tag that is a real ass-hat type of thing to do and you really need to cool down & think about what you've done...

If you promise not to turn and pitch flash grenades at your team right out of spawn again I'll consider dropping the ban down to 24-hours...

Never do something like that again, We will not and do not tolerate such actions from any strafeRight members...

I also would like to suggest that if your ever banned in the future, don't get on the forums and accuse any of our Admins of being abusive. Its extremely insulting.
