Edited out after I actually read through

Maybe he wanted to make you commander and hit the wrong button!

We had about 8 or 10 people trying to get accepted,but no one got in.If you refuse to acknowledge anyone,the pile on noat would at least like an explanation.

Btw,Freyja admitted that he just took the award for fastest boot in Allegiance history(it's in the chat logs of the next game).

I believe that qualifies under server hostaging, which is Bannable.

There are many people who play with AA off and shouldn't. When I see people requesting for over 5 minutes - and people pm the comms to accept and they still dont - I will simply drop them.

That was an extremely chaotic game and you spammed requests like mad while things were insane.

You're a vet, you should know better- wait until accepted, a polite PM if needed, otherwise wait your turn.

Spamming = Accept and boot. And then accept the others waiting.

No, if you read any logs you have you'll note I was responding to someones general question later on about the fastest boot or boot per hour or how often certain people get booted, and I said, 1 second, that I just did it to someone that spammed requests to join in an earlier game. It's not the fastest boot in history, at best it's a tie. Stop making @#(! up when your own logs say different.


It's not hostaging, it's not retalitory booting, it's learning you a lesson- wait your turn.


I rarely keep people waiting too long -though a pm when I do is reasonable- don't expect a response expect either to wait or to be accepted after.

Lord knows if I had let you join for longer than a seconds you'd have spammed me once a second for a frigate.

This should be in rants.

Also to note, you were using iirc a hider I'd never seen, so all I did was check to make sure you weren't (4) or less.

Accept and boot is NEVER an acceptable answer. You have the "reject pilot" button for a reason.

And you can't honestly tell me that in the 10 mins of requesting you couldn't accept him. Bull@#(!. If you can't be bothered to accept players, put AA on. If you dont want that, then don't command. you stopping others from playing is hostaging and you accept and booting is retaliatory.

Please review the dictionary for those terms.

Then review the ROC & SRC.

And it wasn't 10 minutes.

Also feel free to take a screen shot of the f6 panel and circle where it says "reject pilot" then post said graphic. As unless one of us is drunk (entirely possible) then there is no way to reject someone from SPAMMING to get on a team from a game in progress.

I love it when noobs starts teaching lessons!

Of course my POV is to allow the commander to boot whoever he wants for whatever reason. "No Retaliatory Booting" is such a dumb rule. Just don't fly for the people likely to boot you.
