Admin encouraging old players to leave BFV?

[x4|Al Gore]

How can a server admin encourage old players to leave the game? He said the same thing to tina a month ago. Put a leash on this Ice:

I was just stating the obvious Al.
You didnt get your way with the voting and now you are in the game counting the time down in game chat and asking others to go vote to get rid of the timer.

I was just stating the obvious Al.

If I am reminding my team or other players that the map is going to end within a few minutes, OR if I'm responding to players who are asking for the removal of map timer to go to forum and vote, then this game isn't for me? What is obvious is that you don't want me to remind players that the map is going to end soon due to the new map timer and about the related forum vote.

You didnt get your way with the voting and now you are in the game counting the time down in game chat and asking others to go vote to get rid of the timer.

So you can go on social media and ask players to go to forum and vote a certain way, but other players cannot?

I was reminding my losing team (which you were also on) to get more flags because we only had a few minutes left. I was reminding my team to get flags because a few maps ago in Flaming Dart the map ended prematurely with Red team 107 and Blue team 129. For 35 minutes the red team fought hard to get flags but the map ended before we could turn things around. We had plenty of players but the timer was the limiting factor.

When @Mav3ricK asked to remove map timer, I informed him to go to forum and vote if he didn't want map timer (which he said he had already done).

You told tina to play somewhere else, about a month ago. It doesn't look good for an admin to tell players, especially old time players that this game isn't for them, OR that they should go somewhere else. I thought we were trying to get more players to join this game not the opposite.

Here is my reply after you posted a personal attack. Your wall of text assault doesn't change anything.

First of all, I locked this topic last night because I simply was too tired to write a proper response and I feared leaving it open would have allowed additional insult to injury.

How can a server admin encourage old players to leave the game? He said the same thing to tina a month ago. Put a leash on this Ice:

Once again you choose to make a public spectacle instead of reporting it privately and letting me deal with things. You say I must put a leash on it like the admins are dogs?

Now, I cannot control how people feel about the game, how they feel about other players or any changes. You clearly don't like the time limit, fair enough. I wrapped up the poll for it all here: https://forum.helloclan.eu/threads/9528/post-66129

I was just stating the obvious Al.
You didnt get your way with the voting and now you are in the game counting the time down in game chat and asking others to go vote to get rid of the timer.

He is allowed to do this Vmax. Again, not everyone can be happy with what happens around here, there will always be an issue somewhere along the line. Al most likely failed to notice that I wrapped up the poll.

If I am reminding my team or other players that the map is going to end within a few minutes, OR if I'm responding to players who are asking for the removal of map timer to go to forum and vote, then this game isn't for me? What is obvious is that you don't want me to remind players that the map is going to end soon due to the new map timer and about the related forum vote.

Map vote stayed (just) and so did the time limit. Did you perhaps see that I mentioned the time limit came with an unexpected benefit? It brings with it the 180sec delay before another player can start a map vote (or rather each individual player). As a result, there hasn't been as much map vote spamming.

So you can go on social media and ask players to go to forum and vote a certain way, but other players cannot?

Al, you clearly have a thing against Vmax. He did not post on Facebook for a vote to go a certain way, in fact he helped it by posting it. Something I didn't do. He did not have any biased intentions.

In fact the only thing he did post was this:

You call that trying to sway votes? Or am I missing something?

You told tina to play somewhere else, about a month ago. It doesn't look good for an admin to tell players, especially old time players that this game isn't for them, OR that they should go somewhere else. I thought we were trying to get more players to join this game not the opposite.

I will still deal with your "complaint", but on my terms and not in a public space.



The voting is over Al, what is here is now here. I suggest you adapt to it as best you can. Unless you want me to have another unnecessarily excessive vote.



Regards,
Ice

Ps. This topic stays locked. If there are any further problems, DM me directly instead of trying to stay protected in a public space. I'd be a lot more receptive then.
