About the incident on crossroads: I don't know who placed the camera, but I do know that McG|Petermyster (who was the comm at the time) saw me driving out of the base at the same time he saw the camera. He immediately blamed me. Mcg|Petemyster has a vendetta against me. On numerous occasions he has tried to report me for this and that, basically every little thing he can find that is possibly wrong.
You yourself Flame have admitted that you did not see me do anything wrong, you only heard it from him.
You say that "ppl were getting really upset and ask me via steam friends to do something about it". I think that that is an exaggeration. The ONLY person I saw complaining (after careful review of the log) was McG|Petemyster. And I would bet that he was the one who complained to you. (In fact I know he did because before I was banned he said "Don't shoot the messenger").
Another thing. You say you see me driving out of the base and getting blown up, I didn't know that getting blown up was a bannable offense, it certainly isn't on the server rules. It is impossible for me to know ahead of time where the mines are, as they are moved. Either I drive slowly and avoid the mines, but am guaranteed killed by the level 3 MLs and the grens that were continually mortaring us, OR I drive fast, avoid the MLs and grens, but take a chance with the mines. You can probably see now that driving fast is the only way to do things.
Although this is off the point I think that your argument that building jeeps is a waste of resources is flawed.
To quote: "You build a jeep, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another jeep, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another jeep, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another jeep, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another jeep, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another jeep…"
Total cost: 6 jeeps = 800 res. Total kills: Usually between one and two per jeep, depending on the map and how far into the game we are. I OFC don't build jeeps on maps where they are useless.
Here is what everybody else does:
"Build a tank, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another tank, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another tank, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another tank, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another tank, drive to the enemy, get blown up, build another tank…"
Total cost: 6 tanks = between 4500 and 10000 res. Total kills: Usually about equal to me, again depending on the map and how far into the game we are.
This whole thing sounds like a classic case of an admin takes McG|Petemysters word over mine, without adequate proof.
So, would you please give me another chance. I promise I won't do anything that could even be considered as griefing, such as getting blown up by the enemy. I also promise that from now on I will buy only the expensive tanks, and I will completely ignore the cheap yet effective jeeps.
