It is extremely unsettling and disturbing, especially when he goes into his long winded love notes about how he'd bring the stars to me but they could never be as bright as me...

I dunno, this fella is definitely disturbed.

I've already found you out boy!

Underneath that fake hard candy shell of yours shrouded by vulgarity and incompetence is this lil' dorky LuftWiener.

Full of love, and good will. You can't hide that lisp forever, and the way you fly shows you are quite obviously limp wristed.

You think you have me fooled boy? I know your secrets, I know you try to act like a hard ass... but it still shows through... you're the biggest candy bellybutton of all the LuftWieners.

Santa, Grunherz and Hazed all bundled into one lisping, limp wristed, loving, buttmonkey, bundle of gayness.

Ahhhh, come on out of the closet Seth... you know you can find friends here. We already have several LimpWristed LittleWiener LispWaffe squads... I'm sure they'll just LOVE you up.. err love to have you IN their "squad" (bath houses)

So come on Seth, quit peaking out of that closet and come all the way out.. I can see you in there!

  iv had only 1 person that i had a problum with BIGJUG...SOME ONE POSTED A WHILE BACK ON THIS PERSON AND AS FAR AS I KNOW HE NOW KEEPS IT TO HIMSELF...... i dont like this punk but the comunity resonded hard on this person and he seems to have quit his trash talk...thank god ...try it with gunman26 if it dont help i say the comunity make a post and post screen shots of his actions ..if you get enough maybe HT will do someting
 as it shows the comunity will ..i guess unite to complane in 1 form and see what HT thinks and does if anything i think it might be worth a try at least i feel some peaple need to be checked so to speak .

Yup, I'm sorry you had to hear it from me... it's sad when it has to come from another person.

I'm sorry Sturm, I had no idea.. he kept telling me *I* was the only one.

That lying dirty bastard!

I don't expect HTC to publish "rules".  It's not that cut and dried.

Use common sense and you don't have to worry about it.

Keep in mind, Nath had a long history of poor behaviour, and neither I, StSanta, nor anyone else here knew the whole extent of it.

I'm betting it's permanent, and I hope HTC refuse to even discuss it.  Guys like Nath cost HTC time with complaints, monitoring, etc.  It just makes sense for them not to allow him back in simply based on the extra time it would likely cost them.  By going through the extra time and BS to permanenty ban somebody, they at least ensure that they don't have to waste time with that particular problem indivudual in the future.  Letting such people back in is a bad risk, and there is no potential reward I can see.

I hope they skip over these threads too.  I'd rather they spend their time working on game updates.

AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED:

HTC is a privately owned business and reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason.

Nath acted like a salamander and got kicked out of the establishment by the owners who were tired of his behavior.  Hopefully he has learned his lesson and wont be ejected from future businesses.

Thats enough.

Like many of the others here, you're attacking Nath and the justifications for banning him rather than the real problem that StSanta raised, which is the disequality of enforcement and punishment.

Few would argue, I think, that Nath didn't deserve to be banned for some period of time.  However, I've seen far worse behavior from gunman26 and Citabria, the only difference being perhaps that their behavior did not occur while any HTC employees were present.  Yet still these players and others continue to play without any punishment whatsoever.

As I've stated before, it's clear that Nath's banning did not have the deterrent effect that HTC had hoped.  That said, HTC must either step to the plate by showing consistency in their unwillingness to tolerate disruption by others, or they must show equality and fairness in their punishment toward Nath.

And please don't argue that Nath was somehow some special "exception" because he was amazingly more disruptive or mentally debilitating to HTC than everyone else.  I don't buy it.

HTC Will not comment on anything we do in relation with any given player. That quite simply is between us and any player in question only.

if gunman26 hasnt earned a banning and nathbdp has, then it is kinda blurring the lines as to what is acceptable behavior! i thought a precedent was established with nath's banning.....guess it's more arbitrary or mysterious than that.

normally, the channel 1 irritations are spoiled brats who have a widdle temper tantrum when they dont get what they want....or feel the need to explain how they lost/won every kill....this gunman guy is on the offensive even when he's winning!

i dont remember people gathering to ask for nath to be banned...gunman26 is an irritant to the whole community, including people who dont even normally get along in alliances. i think that says somehting. the community has no direct recourse other than the squelch command i think they are appealing for justice.

i guess we just have to keep squelching him or listen to him pathetically cry out for attention night after night. kinda like regular society - the mass of ok people have to deal with the 'rights' of one or two bad apples. i mean 99.9% of us wouldn't steal but 100% of us lock our door at night -

Alright, this should REALLY be in a private email to HTC if you are REALLY interested in the answers to your questions as opposed to trying to apply some public pressure on HTC to let Nath back in.

The biggest difference I see between the two situations is that Nath was asked to correct his behavior by Hitech and instead of complying, he thumbed his nose publicly at HT and said with his actions "I am not going to do as you ask, I will do whatever I want, you cannot make me."

Has this other guy, for all his twitishness, done this yet?  Until he has, you are comparing apples and oranges, Santa.  As for Nath coming back, I had more sympathy for the guy prior to reading this thread.
