IxianMace Posted August 27, 2002 Posted August 27, 2002 I was just on WOL chatting to someone in the channel when all of a sudden it says, 'ixianmace has been banned from the channel' and then I get a big dialog box that says 'You are banned'. Next thing I know, I'm back to the main screen of Emperor. I didn't swear or do anything bad, so why the hell did I get bannned? Has this ever happned to anyone? Is there also a way that I can get unbanned?!?! :O >:(
Gigaettin Posted August 27, 2002 Posted August 27, 2002 it'll probs only last an hour, yeh its happened to me b4, when i used to go in the chat room
DjCiD Posted September 4, 2002 Posted September 4, 2002 anything close to a cuss worked will get you banned for a few hours... ie. I got banned for saying focker, a clan m8 got banned for typingSLUTone line at a timeeso watch what you say... also you will get removed from chat for scrolling, you can still play game but not enter the chat for a while.
Navaros Posted September 4, 2002 Posted September 4, 2002 Welcome to the Club. Many of us have been there and we share your pain. ;D
Acriku Posted September 4, 2002 Posted September 4, 2002 What were you talking about if it was so innocent? And sometimes filters take things within words like Scumdog is not able to be used for hotmail, because of a certain "bad" word in it.
DjCiD Posted September 4, 2002 Posted September 4, 2002 the word keystrokes might get you banned because of strokes :- ;D
IxianMace Posted September 6, 2002 Author Posted September 6, 2002 What were you talking about if it was so innocent? And sometimes filters take things within words like Scumdog is not able to be used for hotmail, because of a certain "bad" word in it. As far as I can remember, I said things like this:"Okay so what was it you wanted to discuss?""Ok shoot""In my opinion, the Leech is too damn powerful,it should be downgraded"."I think it's slightly tougher, and have you checked the build time for it? I've never seen the AI get that many Leeches so damn fast"."The instant hit bullet should be removed". From what I can see, Acriku, there is nothing here that could warrant a ban. I may have forgotten some things, or the sentences may have been slightly different, but I surely did not swear.
Gobalopper Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 Try emailing Delphi about it. Westwood logs the channels I think so he might be able to find out why you were banned and if it was a stupid reason unban you.
Acriku Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 Was it you who said damn? That sounds to me like a curse word...Or that may have been the other guy and you were banned by mistake?
ethan Posted November 25, 2002 Posted November 25, 2002 excuse my digging up of this thread, but damn will get you banned (i didnt dig it up actually, IxianMace linked to it).
IxianMace Posted November 25, 2002 Author Posted November 25, 2002 excuse my digging up of this thread, but damn will get you banned (i didnt dig it up actually, IxianMace linked to it).Well then explain to me why I had to say it twice in order to get banned? ??? ::) :P
ethan Posted November 25, 2002 Posted November 25, 2002 ****, i dont know. guess they didnt catch it the first time.
DukeLeto Posted November 25, 2002 Posted November 25, 2002 Maybe if you people didn't cuss so much, these thing wouldn't happen. ::)
IxianMace Posted November 25, 2002 Author Posted November 25, 2002 I was not cussing when I was chatting in the channel about the changes that needed to be made (IMO) to the Leech at that time. I was simply expressing my opinion. Why do you always try to see fault in people?
IxianMace Posted November 25, 2002 Author Posted November 25, 2002 Well anyway, the fact of the matter is you won't be finding me 'chatting'/'cussing'/'swearing my ****ing head off'/whatever you want to call it anyway, in WOL chat channel. The empbot and helpbot 'moderators' are simply just ridiculous. That's all there is to it. People swear their heads off in the game or in game rooms, and they don't get banned for it because it isn't moderated. Apparently, the chat isn't logged (and why would it be? ::)) Anyway, case closed, no more WOL chat channel!! >:(
