I've tk'ed Sav, Ship, Keek, Marcello, Parrot plenty of times! I always follow with an "Oops" or "Sorry". Never had a problem. Now with rev, that's a different story! Got kicked for a sec for purposely bleedin'....I deserved it!

Or why did SkunX open this thread?
was bored and was reading through the "banned" posts and i noticed that lots of these fellows seem to blame their being banned on ( excuse my language) the admins being dicks...well..I just wanted to say that you guys ( the admins ) are doing a wonderful job! i have never played in a server as fun as this one..
yep..lol

OK...its is not hard gentlemen (or ladies, or gentlemen acting like ladies) IT DOES NOT TAKE A GENIUS TO FIGURE THIS OUT!
1. Play a clean game, if you cannot play a clean game you will suffer the consequences.
2. If you feel you have been wrongly judged by an admin bring forth your argument to them in a calm and mature manner.
3. Even still if you feel misjudged (i.e. ban), there is a area on this site for players and their complaints.
4. DO NOT SPAM THE SERVER! IT DOES NOT HELP YOU.
5. A good tk does not deserve another tk. A bleeding does not deserve another bleeding. If an issue arises go to an admin so they can do their job swiftly and get everyone happy again. Do not shoot the blockers! Its tempting, yes, and Ive done it too, but it is not right! Go to an admin and enjoy watching a person takin a nice fling.
6. Understand being an admin isnt just a walk in the park for these guys...they are not at anytime going on power trips, they are doing theyre jobs effectively. I have played on this server for years and countless times I've watched admins have to stop enjoying the game themselves to handle an issue for YOU, so be appreciative damnit.
7. The admins are trained to understand and deal with a variety of situations, trust them. Believe me they know what theyre doing.
8. DO NOT PLAY ONE OFF ANOTHER! THEY HAVE TEAMSPEAK AND WATCH OUT FOR EACHOTHER (im still hackin into your treehouse guys...
)
9. RESPECT other people, its not that hard.
10. This list could go on forever....simply put, ENJOY THE FRICKEN GAME AND KEEP IT CLEAN!

Just to point out:
That if you see someone get kicked without warning, that is probably because most admins use pm's to warn players. So, just because you don't see the warnings doesn't mean that there were none.

10 bucks says the people who think the admins are doing a bad job are people who've been banned or watched for dubious traits.
It's a thriving server with tons of regs who love to play together and treat mature new-comers with respect and help.
Happy people don't complain.
lol... it's all good. This is a cool place because we can kavetch like this and still frag the heck out of each other in the game. I'm not gonna let a few rotten apples spoil my barrel of fun.

I dont see anything wrong with banning someone for 9999999 seconds if they tk.
I dont know how late night on ecgn is nowadays (seems like the server pretty much empties out), but a few months ago, there used to be a consistent 15-20 people or so. Sometimes there are no admins, sometimes only one. Thats when its easily to notice some especially...irritating admin behavior.
For example, one time, we had maybe 15 people in the server...games were going fine. Nobody was causing any trouble. Admin comes in, immediately says something like "nobody better mess with me"...nobody even really knows what she is talking about, so there is no reply. Seconds pass, she does !kick wolfplayer 3 times, then disconnects. Total time on the server: About 1 minute. Congrats, you just successfully emptied out 20% of the server population. The Wolfplayers weren't blocking, or doing anything bad. Nobody was complaining. Everything was going fine. But it sucks when an admin just feels the urge to powertrip and the players (with dwindling numbers) are the ones who suffer.
Another time...teams were 8v7. They weren't stacked either, talent was more or less comparable. In Round 1, one team runs the docs in about 7 minutes or so. Round 2...the admin decides to go spec, thereby making the teams 8v6. Then the admins says that she will start kicking us, unless we even up the teams. How lame is it to threaten to start kicking us, when it was the admin who decided to go spec and make the teams uneven? I dont think anyone switched-eventually someone joined the server and the complete and utter chaos of 8v6 was put to rest.
Some admins definately act different when the server is filled with mostly non-regulars and no other admins in sight. Somehow I doubt if these incidents would have happened if other admins were present,
