Banned for discord comments - Ubitnik - 09-06-2023 said im banned for being disrespectful to staff, staff wasnt even on last night and i only talked to them on discord which is independent from the server. anything i have done on discord should not affect my play on the server. also, going on a rant when there is next to no one online is not reason for a ban. i told a staff member off on discord and they banned me on the server, which is wrong. how am i toxic toward staff when they aren't online? this isnt the first time a player has been banned from the server for a discord issue. this needs addressed RE: Banned for discord comments - Ubitnik - 09-06-2023 (09-06-2023, 07:06 PM)Ubitnik Wrote: said im banned for being disrespectful to staff, staff wasnt even on last night and i only talked to them on discord which is independent from the server. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1095471843978268712/1149066684477493248/unknown.png?width=1248&height=676 evidence of a previous server ban for a discord comment by the same staff member A ban recently occurred based off discord comments yet again and the actions of the staff that are in fact wrong are being hidden from the players. The players know what is really going on and the players aren't happy with the actions of the staff. Discord is blowing up right now because of bamajoe and its all negative about the staff. This really needs addressed. This is what I was trying to get at in discord when I was met with total resistance in wanting better communication with the staff. Players have no idea what happens at a map reset. Players don't know who to ask the questions to so they ask me. I gladly provide them information based off what I know, but unless it comes from staff, it really isn't good information. So I brought it up in discord and was met with pretty much no help and it was severely upsetting. Just something about what happens to this map somewhere from the STAFF. Staff instead of providing the information and a solution, met me with a brick wall of arguments. It was not an unreasonable request that the players have some sort of solid information about what happens with this map. Instead the staff became defensive and un-helpful. Staff is not online enough to be asked this questions so we are forced into not knowing or asking a regular player. The forums are slow (in the transfer of information) and are rarely used, so we are now forced into asking a player or going to the UO discord. The information about what happens on map reset is not readily available on discord or the forums. This is what I was getting at in needing better communication from the STAFF. Instead of getting that, I got a defensive staff member not taking my request seriously about the staff needing to be better in communication (constructive criticism) and ended up banned for it because the staff member upset me so much in not trying to help or fix an issue, that I told them off. Am I really wrong for wanting better staff communication and getting upset at staff when they refuse to help and just ignore me? All I wanted was information from staff, that was readily available to the players, about what happens at map reset. And I was criticized for it. Like really guys? The staff member could have done something, could have seen it as a relevant issue and worked on it, but they didn't. They got defensive with me and basically told me to bug off. So I told them off in a DM on DISCORD, and was banned from it. I mean the chat is right there. I was asking for better communication from the staff and got banned for it. The proof is right there. Most players don't feel like they can rely on staff. Shouldn't the staff then be asking themselves, what can we do better? I have been trying as much as I can in game to give the VH back that community feel, but without the staff support that the players expect, playing here just isn't fun. I typically don't worry about being raided or griefed, because I know I can get a rollback fairly quickly (experiences have varied from player to player). The chat bot does a decent job. The players will gang up on hackers that are annoying new players. But when it comes to some simple availability of some information about the server, players can't find it, which is a staff communication issue, and when it got brought up, a player ended up banned? The players really DON'T trust the staff. Should it be like that? Be honest with yourself. I know I am not the only one that feels this way, but it seems like I am the only one willing to be straight forward about the fact that the players want and need better staff. Instead of meeting a player with a legitimate concern with a stone wall, bend a little and give the players the better staff communication. It doesn't take long. If a staff member has enough time to make floating pigs and block displays, they have time to communicate with the player base about relevant information. Getting defensive to the point of power abuse over some constructive criticism is just ridiculous. Staff needs fixed before next map or there will be a lot less players. It all starts with my original request of there being information, readily available to the player base, about what EXACTLY happens at map reset. Not an unreasonable request but it ended with me getting banned for going off on staff in discord..... RE: Banned for discord comments - bamajoe411 - 09-07-2023 Ubi you were not banned for anything done outside of the Minecraft server. You have been banned and warned multiple times about how you treat others. You have not learned your lesson and unfortunately will not be getting any other chances. Here are two previous bans for you from this map alone. This ban making the third. October 2022 https://forum.vanillahigh.net/showthread.php?tid=6876 https://forum.vanillahigh.net/showthread.php?tid=6913 Febuary 2023 https://forum.vanillahigh.net/showthread.php?tid=6942 Here is the evidence where you were disrespectful to me and other staff in public server chat. You said yourself you no longer wish to play on this server and now you won't be. Code: [06:56:27] <Ubitnik> no if i get banned based off the UOVH discord we have problems RE: Banned for discord comments - Ubitnik - 09-07-2023 You timed me out of the discord because I responded to ender being a jerk to me. Were you even online at the time or were you just lurking on console? You were being a jerk to me in the discord and refusing to provide players with the information they wanted. You deflected the issue and ignored my concerns. If you want treated with respect than you should treat players with respect, which you don't. Players agree with me on this one. The ban with CantFeelMyLegs was another instance of staff being over bearing with the rules and even admitted they were wrong to kick me in the first place. Players are not happy with the staff, I brought it up to you and you did nothing about it. Players shouldn't be coming to me for information that the staff should be providing. You are literally running the server into the ground with how you act. You could have been helpful instead of being a jerk to me. The fact that Pearl and I had to beg you that one night not to screw around with my town is more than enough proof that you are not helpful. Maybe if you actually did your job, players would actually want you around. All this because the normal players had no idea about the legacy server you manage. Players are coming to me for the information and you kept asking me why, when really the STAFF should be asking themselves why players are asking a regular player for information that only the staff can fully answer. I pour my heart and soul into this server and the staff just isn't as good as it used to be. I will be surprised if the server lasts through another reset. The community is not happy with how you handled the situation at all. Keeping me banned just proves my point of the lack of reliable staff. You have banned a player before for something they said in discord, and that is pretty much what you did here. I am sorry I expect a little more from staff than some neat command block displays around my base or a floating pig. The community is not informed by staff and that is on the staff. I brought a concern of the community to you, and you did nothing about it then and still haven't. Think about that. There is nothing on the forums about the legacy server and what happens with map resets. All I wanted, but you refused to acknowledge the lack of staff communication which is definitely a relevant issue amongst the player base. Maybe next time you will do better because VH is going to end up dying because of you. You are literally Werty 2.0. Good luck bama, you're going to need it after you drive the player base away with your actions. Sorry you couldn't look at things from a player's perspective and just didn't want to do your job. The COMMUNITY would rather have me around, its just the staff that is never around that doesn't want me pointing out their shortcomings. I've been disrespected a lot on this server and the staff didn't blink and just told me to shut up. RE: Banned for discord comments - CantFeelMyLegs - 09-28-2023 I know we are not supposed to comment on appeal threads, but since I have no intention of playing multiplayer minecraft again, I figure, no loss. Ubitnik, you've made the claim many times that I banned you. I took pride in never banning a single player unless they joined the server and immediately started using vulgar language. Simply put, no matter what you say, I - never - banned - you. You have your facts wrong about me, and you most likely have your facts wrong about every argument you have. When you went off the rails with me, I private messages several players to say goodbye. I logged off minecraft with you still ranting, and I deleted minecraft from my computer. The ban you think I enacted was because you cannot control yourself. A different mod found your behavior bannable and did the right thing. Frankly, I'm not surprised to log on here and find that you've been banned again. I respect that you served our country. However, I think you need to do quite a bit of growing up. Does the Vanilla High community want you online more than the staff? Maybe. However, from my point of view, I left multiplayer minecraft because of one thing. Ubitnik. You may actually be a community resource, but you make up for it by being toxic. I refer to your most recent posts here as an example. Asking for a ban appeal by telling the people responsible for your ban what terrible people they are is not how people share their toys. The last sentence in the post above gives me the idea that you think Vanilla High would rather see you online than the run of the mill Mod. How many others want to see you spam chat with your rants? Probably a lot less than you think. How many others would like to know that if there was an issue there would be a mod to help them out? Probably more than want to read your blathering about how you've been wronged. Either stop drinking so much, or grow up. You'll be a happier person when you do either.
