name removed from talk spawn?

Post by Relapse »

Hi,

I tired loging into quol.guleague.org:5158 today and noticed my name has been taken off from the talk/spawn list, could somebody explain to me why exactly this has happened? I believe i registered in the right spots and I remember being able to talk/spawn on the league servers already.

-thanks.

You have been removed by the league admins because we suspect you're hiding your real identity. We do not want cheaters, abusers, or trouble makers to get around bans and come back under a different identity. Removal from the spawn list is the only way we have to protect from unwanted people. You are not certainly a new player. So, unless you reveal to the GU admins your past callsigns you will not be allowed in.

Then you shouldn't have anything to hide. Show your other name.

I don't want everyone to know because I don't want to get sucked into the game like I used to be, I don't want to be contacted by anyone and I don't want to join any teams, all I want is to play when I have the time...obviously nobody could understand that, so if I can't have it like that then I guess it's better off if i stay inactive like I did for almost 3 years.

I simply fail to see why you can't be honest with the administration team. If you hide information, surely this makes you suspicious. Common sense, no?

No-one has asked you to publicly identify yourself have they? Maybe a PM to one of the admins listing your previous callsign would be adequate? I'm sure if you asked them to keep that info private (to themselves) they would.

But, using a different callsign will not prevent players asking you to join their team. Once you've played a while again you will be noticed - assuming you're good :D

So maybe you should just join the league again using your original callsign. You could always put 'No I dont want to join your team' in your email string!

If none of these things are acceptable to you, then I guess you'll just have to hang out on the non league (public) servers, which would be a shame.

I believe players in the league also have a right to know who they match.

This is interesting advice, Bambino. Care to share all your aliases with us now? :wink: :wink:

telling me something I already know is silly :P
Just trying to get you to follow your own good advice to NYCfinest. Kind of like taking your own medicine :)


I must be getting soft in my old age, JeffM hasn't messed with any of my posts lately.

NYCFinest is probably Drax. That guy ran off, came back, told me who he was and told me to not tell anyone. Then he pissed me off so I told everyone and he ran away again. :o

Just for the sake of clarification, NYCFinest is NOT the player formerly known as Drax.

NYCFinest is an alias whose true identity is known to the gu admins. They have the situation in hand.

@Gabe, someone in alias can say they are whoever they chose. Don't believe everything you hear. :)

Not to be kind of getting too much into his privacy, but why the name change, depart bz, change to new name, and no tell who he is?

@gg:
simply because...i dont wanna repeat. quantom dot said that the gu admins dont want players getting around bans, cheating, etc. why giv away his new identity?

anyway, whatever the story, its in the hands of the gu admins, and we should leave it at that.
