Getting WTFPWND by Skuzzy.....priceless.

If he got mass reported for something stupid he said on open channel then he deserves whatever punishment he received.  However, if he was mass reported just because he shot a some guys down and was mass reported in retaliation, those that did it need to and will get what's coming to them.  It's been happening with way too much frequency lately.

It was a really stupid idea though to bring it to the general forums.

I understand the OP's frustration at not being able to have the mute removed in as rapid a manner as it was emplaced; a downside of the ".report" feature is that there is no ".un-report" command, HTC staff must be contacted for a mute to be removed.  I do not berate him for posting that frustration here one iota, in fact I'd say that he more than deserves the right to rant about the abuse of the ".report" function.  The only place he erred was in poking Skuzzy with a sharp stick; had he said "I really wish HTC people were available 24/7" would have certainly been more appropriate.

maybe skuzzy will fix it next week when you're a little more grateful for what he does around here!

Really now!  How would you feel if you had a problem that only Skuzzy could fix and he adopted the attitude you mentioned.  Would you feel that helps or hurts an already unpleasant situation?  Next time when you say some people should be treated in a certain way, take a moment and ask yourself if you would like to be treated in the manner you advocate.  Just something my mother told me a long time ago.

HTC has already proved that its their playground and their rules. Should Skuzzy or anyone else at HTC find a post offensive it IS in their rights to slap an idiot around. It would be very easy to have an idiot wait a week before getting his privileges returned just for acting like an idiot and posting the crap the OP posted, as a lesson to the idiot and anyone else thinking that they too might want to be an idiot and post the same kind of crap that anyone who ISN'T an idiot would know better than to post.

Had the OP had a little patience all would have been resolved tomorrow with out any "drama", but that childish "I want it my way NOW!" attitude could cost him a bit more than a quite weekend.

Oh, did I mention I think the OP was an idiot for bringing this to the boards?

   I completely agree with your post.  I feel that the .report command should be eliminated due to its continued abuse.  We as players have the ability to squelch anyone at any time with the .squelch command.  (unless your list is full)  The .report command invites abuse like this.  Frankly I think that the customers of this game need to have thicker skins.  If somebody cusses at me, or says nasty things to me it certainly isn't the first time in my life, and It wont be the last time in my life that it has happened.  In my job it happens maybe once a week to me.

    For The record Skuzzy is Saint,  and does a damn fine job!

This is the crux of the biscuit.  If people weren't petulant children, this wouldn't be a problem.  I am not sure there is a coding solution.  There is a place for reporting.  Getting shot down by some one is not that place.

There are "younger and more sensitive" players who should not be subjected to inappropriate language.  The game needs to be kept family friendly.  I whine often, especially when I am getting spanked.  I do not think that I have ever gone after anyone personally on open frequencies.

apparently you're not an IT person, otherwise you wouldve understood that entire statement!

If it were possible to take a deeper look at mass reports.... If it were found that a squad mass reports frequently and the "victim" was not at fault, if the entire squad was muted for one month that kind of behavior would most likely stop. That is the entire squad. Even if some did not participate. Squads would tend to take a better look at folks they bring into their ranks.

I've said that from Day One of playing.

You had to be told that? 

The office at HTC isn't a 24/7 operation.  They even close for Holidays............just in case you didn't know.
