Rules are needed yes but cut the harsh penalties! We are a gentleman community always have been. When someone is breaking the rules warn him atleast twice then, either kill him, or if need be kick. But only after several attempts at warning him don't work. We all break the rules a bit so why not ban entire community. It still is a game. Personally I don't think new admins should have banning rights. Let them first prove themselves not to fellow admins but to the community that they are fair as well as being respected and known to the community. And with bans they should be discussed.

Don't get me wrong sometimes slobo is a dumbass In certain regards. But why ban the guy that makes our posters for events. It doesn't matter if it a 24 hr ban or longer. Were people leaving cause of his antics? Can you not kick him for disruptive behaviour? After you warned him did you kill for being a dumbass? Did you kick him for being a dumbass? Or did you go straight to ban? Are we admins immune to bans? When we fuck up and break the rules. Which we all have done??? All I'm saying is we don't need to ban. Cheating permanent. If you kick a player for disruptive behaviour after several warnings. And comes back and continues kick whoever it is again. Try your hardest not to use bans. And like I said new admins shouldn't have ban rights yet. Cause look at what has happened.

This is a game, not real war. Games have rules. Rule breakers ruin the game for everyone except for those that don't like rules.As a former Admin on another server, I would like make some points.

1. Admins need their own forum where permissions are set for read/write only for admins. This debate should be there.
2. The rules in the rules sections should be enforced. The owner and/or the admins can change the rules.
3. Being an admin is not just setting maps.

first offence 10 min bansecond time 60 min ban
third time  6 hour ban
fourth time 1 day ban

but i think 3 days is to much for just breaking the rules
but  for hacking 4 weeks or longer is good

I'm saying even if temporary bans are given they still shouldn't have it.  Yet again I reiterate that for all my years as admin have never had to give temporary bans, kicks and warnings have always worked for me.

all of the admin's do warn players.

At last: For this particular situation I´m quite unsure if a ban or a warning is adequate, because I doubt that the mortar fortifications are part of the mainbase area. I think it should be allowed for allies to attack even if the mortar fire is overwhelming ... but axis have spawnpoints at the mortar fortifications if I remember right.
So in which way shall we handle this situations in future?
Please comment here, thx

I'm sorry but I disagree, I've been on this server for years! And an admin
for years! Warnings and kicks work, bans should be unacceptable unless
their is cheating, or discussed amongst other admins. People complain
all the time it's a free world. But if you ask me the way we have been
for years is more relaxed, not jump straight to the gun and kick or ban.
Just cause you have the power doesn't mean you have to use it. We pride
ourselves on not being like PFC where if admin didn't like you you were
instant banned. Or just banned without warning. Our numbers on the
server have been good for years, the rules are enforced, most complaints
come from the same people. Then telling people if they don't want rules
rent your own server. That's ridiculous! Rules break at times but are
we just going to knit pick every little thing. We are here to relax, if
you can't handle dying, well I'm sorry you should be happy it's a game
and not real life. We are a democracy not a dictatorship. This just
looks bad on our community.
