Hello Healer, or as I recognize you Tomoya.
Before I begin anything, I would like to initially apologize for the ways I act. I am very opinionated and when I form one, I stick with it, and I fight keeping fighting it. I often lack the ability to think the logic of the others point, instead I just shoot it down with another one of my points. It works well in some scenarios, and terribly in others; as shown. Knife informed me of your complaint which is completely justified, and I, from now on, am going to do my best to accept the other side of the debate and act better as a player.
I will state my believes of the scenarios you listed just to help the reader understand both my and your side.
With the spawncamping that took place today, I cannot deny it having happened. You are correct. I did try to join your team at one point because I love turning the spawn camping from one team onto the other, but your team was stacked so I didn't get the option when I tried. As for name calling, I am only allowed to intervene if it becomes racist or hatred towards a specific group. Otherwise, I have to just assume that the player is raging. If the negativity becomes a spam, I am required to intervene. Words were thrown from both sides, but nothing that was problematic, or at least nothing the I recall taking place. The only one I recall was Mikey saying he hated white people which was sarcastic, but racist nonetheless so I might have needed to react to that as an admin, but frankly I am unsure.
Second issue, I do try to make the community enjoy itself but it is very tough to get everyone to be happy at the same time. As for allowing Spies into another persons base, I am not allowed to do anything against that, or at least not as an Admin. Most of the time, when I respond those reports, I try to destroy the teleporters. I don't recall what happened in that scenario so I can't say that I did or didn't do so. Usually when people do this, they say that they are going to kill the AFK players but other times they don't. Also, the engineers just keep putting down the teleporters and sit next to an ammo box and just build it infinitely so it makes it hard to deal with. I agree it can be problematic, but it is hard to justifiably deal with as an admin.
You are correct that I bring up the past to put perspective into the current subject at hand, but it has happened from both sides. You have also brought up things to shoot down my points. There is no denying we butt heads.
With regards the statement of having players above the age of 16 or having deep voice should be the only ones allowed to use the mic, you had said that it should be a rule, which is in fact a suggestion, but it was a suggest that would become something forced. That is why I explained why that idea would not work. If anyone would like me to explain why I don't think it will work, please let me know and I will make a post about it.
As for me always having something to say against what you say, I do do that to everyone, and many staff will be able to claim that I do. I believe that both sides of any discussion should be represented.
Like I said earlier, making a majority happy on the servers is very hard, especially when there is no obvious majority. With capping, I typically encourage it so that if they do cap to the very end, I can put up a vote during the next round to see if people want it turned off. Capping is allowed, and a lot of players enjoy playing the objective and capping. This is a good example of trying to help the majority. I try to first allow those who want to cap to do so. Capping is allowed so I can't have it off all of the time because then I am excluding a group of players from their wants.
I do try to be responsible but I also try to make the server enjoyable, even if that means being immature or using the shop.
I know I am not a perfect admin (as shown above), but also you are not a perfect server player, but that should not change how I treat you compared to anyone else. You haven't broken any rules that I know of and you come on the servers regularly so you deserve respect. I will do my best to not only respect you like I would anyone else who deserves it, but also become more accepting of opposing views. I promise that if you see me on any server in or out of SwapShop, I will respect you regardless of what has taken place.
Sincerely, I apologize.
