There are many many complaints that happen in this forum, so I would like to take a minute to say something positive and ask for recognition towards Squirrel and War Wizard for how they choose to approach their role as admin on this server.

I mainly play with them on Sundays during ex pack time. One of my favorite traits about them is they listen to the crowd. I frequently request CTF as it is my favorite mode, sometimes I get it sometimes I don't. Whenever I or anyone else has brought up a map or mode change and others have backed that request, Squirrel and Wizard are all over it with a response. Today for example, instead of "Anzio is in rotation" and silence as a response, they actually gave us our options for maps to be ran in CTF. This is a very nice change from a lack of any sort of response from admin involving map changes.

They are also very polite while doing their admin duties. When someone is breaking rules, they are on it but not in an aggressive or threatening way. Again, today as an example, somebody was placing C4 at the flag during CTF. Squirrel I believe very politely requested that they "please do not place C4 at the flag". They also used the player's name in chat instead of running the generic yellow text that few likely read. I have yet to see either admin become hostile towards a player, and I respect that about them.

And lastly, they have a sense of humor. Most admin on this server do, but I would still like to point that out about them. Today Squirrel was not immediately at the top of the leaderboard so I poked fun at him about "not being so tough without his squirrel missiles" and he took it very well.

I feel these two are great role models for present and future admin. Whatever Moon's version of a raise is, give it to them!

Agreed. Top notch communication with the players and treating them like guests. Hat tip to Posi, Grassy, and any of the others that are actively working with the players.

1) IF we mod kits, like adding a Bren gun or limiting nades, than it not only takes affect on every map in that mod but may and can affect the balance and outcome of each and every map.

2) All of the above is looked at, discussed and implemented IF we have someone available to actually mod the map.

3) Yes we listen to the crowd, you may not like or agree with the answer but we do listen. YOU put in a request to have a Bren gun modded in. ONE person putting in a request does not make a crowd.

4) I do not know at this time Why your request was locked or What Posi's reply was but I will look into it and PM you if need be.


5) In future if you do not receive a response quickly enough or have an issue with an admin please have the intelligence and integrity to pm that admin, a Snr or Core member and we will respond in time. You may find it very hard to 'speak for the crowd' in future if no one can hear your voice at all.

Do not respond to this post



and finally...

Between disruptive players, team killers, nade-spammers, cheats, server crashes, seeding, documentation, and unban requests our admin team have a hard enough job as it is.
They are all volunteers who give up their own time and game-play to ensure others have fun yet receive much criticism and very little thanks.

I would like to thank Hairy russian for putting up this post and anyone who has responded in a positive light. Most of all though

Thank you admins

The hell if I locked it ( it was never locked & the suggestion of such is a tad absurd ), I thought it was a great post and used it to point out current SW modding : ) However, I'd note that we have in fact been under an ongoing troll raid. This means all players should be looking twice at what they see in game or on forums.

Our team has had it's hands full , I'd say go apply and help out, however the last field of applicants saw what was involved behind the scenes and it melted their brains.

We want you all have fun and be happy and are against melted brains.

I have never had a problem with and Admin until tonight, and to my astonishment is was War Wizard. He came out and called me a loser for no reason whatsoever. I did kill him with a nade and said "boom" and he then called me a loser. I told him that its not nice to call people names, and he agreed but stated "you still are a loser" How very "Professional"

Later in the game he tked me (I do not know if by accident or not), and I asked "y u tk me?" to which he replied "get your headlights checked"...just real a real smart aleck comment, which I was taken aback by.

I have never know him to act maliciously toward anyone while playing, and I think that he was way out of line with me (in terms of his usually pleasant and non-confrontational behavior). I don't know what his problem was with me, however I think that his conduct way way way out of character for him, and I really did not appreciate it. Hence the post.

Don't be a jerk to people Wizard
