I get a coordinated report mute for saying "gunbunny"
(https://i.postimg.cc/k5KGpXf9/hypocrites-a.jpg) (https://postimages.org/)
While players like this get away with masked vulgarity insulting me all the time because I'm the only one hitting .rpt
(https://i.postimg.cc/D0qTP8g4/hypocrites.jpg) (https://postimages.org/)
When asked if they tried to use vulgarity and bypass the filter, they straight up lied about it. This is an alleged" child.

See, it's the blatant hypocrisy. I should call HT and complain about this? Right.
-
I sympathize with you here, Shane. I see people say far worse every time I’m on. Crazy how adults can’t learn to ignore or at the very minimum squelch. Too many hurt feelings in here.
-
rpt abusers should get a few weeks off.

I've been on the fence about deleting my forum account as I've been told that I need to shut up or shove off. I figured I'd stop by and see what was gong on before I pulled the plug completely and look what I find. LOL
This is the exact reason I no longer play and people defending it and telling me to get over it and to stop complaining is why I no longer post to this forum (with this exception)
The most annoying is people saying "I've never been squelched in 20 years" who have no idea what is going on because they have not been targeted by a mod or players who have decided that anything they say deserves a mute.

200 is a cesspool. Always has been, always will be... :aok

Call HiTech and see what he says.

Are you sure your mic wasn't on mute. I did that last week, and for 2 hours I was giving check 6's and they just dying. I felt so bad till I was told that all they heard was beeps.

Is this a serious question? You get a message in text that says you have been muted. You can't even do a check 6.
-
I sure can't do anything about it. Yall have to call Dale yourselves. Not someone calling for you. You have to step up and take care of it. Posting it here does absolutely nothing. If it werte me, and I had done nothing more, I'd call. That is all I can tell you from here.
-
You're telling me to call and say that some manbabies abused the .rpt a few months ago and that the .rpt system no longer works as intended when true offense occurs? And then what? Nothing will change - not even the tweakable settings. "Use squelch." Ooohhh, the irony.
I just gave HTC enough info to work with for an obvious abuse of .rpt (you even have the film.) 9/14/23 early morning. How much work to bring up the .rpt logs for that day?
9/14/2023 fairly sure early morning, CST... it's not the only time, but one that I was able to document. Prior experience has taught me HTC doesn't have the resources or time to deal with this kind of trivial thing.
I'll never get that time back. Nothing will be done.

Shane, you HAVE to CALL Dale. Sending an e-mail WILL NOT WORK. If you do not CALL him then just drop it. :rolleyes:
-
But why? Maybe I cannot use a phone, ever think about that?
And if I could, I should call him every time someone uses vulgarity to insult me because .rpt doesn't work for individuals? Oh, right... use squelch - the irony! Squelch doesn't stop outright lies being spread or halt the vulgarity - think of "the child."
You have the same people hitting .rpt over and over on me (right around the holidays, too.) I think HT has better things to do during the holidays than deal with a bunch of manbabies.

Don't make me defend Shane. Just. Don't.
Seems like a bad idea to allow random players, not vetted to be responsible moderators, the power to mute other paying customers. They can always just personally mute you.
A mass report should page a mod or text HT. Then let them decide to mute or not.
Permasquelch would solve this.

Yeah, there's a good chance Fud has never been muted because he can act like an adult. :)

I mean I felt bad for Shane at first but in the screenshot, he died and decided to antagonize someone via text. Maybe it's time to not type on 200 for a while and watch how less frequently they get muted. I don't think the system is perfect but there are only 2-3 repeat offenders and once the receipts get posted, they aren't that innocent.
I died in a 262 last night to toddbobe's Mossie and typed "ooph. nice" on 200 and did not get muted. Weird.

Correct. But honestly what he said was not mute worthy.
At least the part he showed. ;)
-

Agreed. But you can't trash talk after every kill or death and then :shockedpikachuface: when someone trash talks back.
In any event, he should email the images to HT and give him a call, but apparently he can't use a phone. :rolleyes:
-
I remember getting in a dog fight with you Shane in a yak and you were in a runstang.
All you did was talk xhit on 200 the entire dogfight
I have 0 sympathy for your toxicity.

Seems you're missing the point. That would have got Shane or I muted it we typed that.
It's not "what" you type. It's "who" types it. Which is why it's a problem...
It appears that there are a group of players and or mod that are targeting certain players in an attempt to run them off.
Like I said it's not "what" you type. it's "who" typed it. My best example is the mute for "non-game related chat on 200" (I made a comment about an ongoing discussion)
You people who are not targeted are basing it on you're experience. I really hope one of you guys become the target of this so you can experience "everything" you say getting muted when the people who have decided to target you are on.
And with that. I'm done with it. It's just very frustrating when people don't seem to get what's going on.
I'll shove off as I was told to do previously :) Just couldn't help myself when I saw this lolz.
-
Are you saying I was dogfighting and talking smack the same time? How much help did you have nearby? Were you close enough to run back to your ack? Did I drag you around just because I wanted to? I'm more than capable of popping your...lol,.. yak?
I have zero sympathy for weaksauce.

Seriously Shane? If you can't stand on your own, no one here can help you. If someone mass reported me for nothing, I'd be calling in a heartbeat.
If you are serious that you did nothing, then you have nothing to hide. Dale has access to everything that happened during the time that this covers. He can see it all. If you don't try, you will not know.
-
What do you mean "stand on my own?"
Check your pm's, mmmkay, then get back to me.

As if my words matter.
Shuffler made good points.
I have nothing against Shane, It's how I joke with my crew all day, but I smile when I do it. Me being from Chitcago area, that's kinda common play. I don't know if he's laughing or truly angry while texting it. <shrug>
HOWEVER.
IMHO (which matters not), this is always a 2D conversation. As was mentioned, log files show a lot more than a screen shot. Shane doesn't bother me, but some people (prolly only 2-3) will go on and on and on, which does irritate some, yet only speak of one instance. This is common in a court about every 5 minutes, half-stories. It may not be the 1st comment, but the 101st. It's the missing part. I wouldn't judge anyone on a screen shot. 2 things can be wrong.
If it was only the one comment, and no frothing at the mouth prior, I'd find a way to call HT. I wouldn't rely on emails, nor this board.
-
I'm laughing. I've always tweaked those with fragile egos in this cartoon genre (AW included.) I had years of dealing with Culero and Skuzzy and have generally stayed on the right side of the smack line.
I get how a screenshot can be misrepresentative, but how about a compressed 2 hr chat buffer down to a viewable 3 min 30 sec video that shows the entire chat from me logging on until that gunbunny screenshot above. It was early morning, not much going on in the buffer as you will see (if you watch the video.)
This video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whKD7YkAFlY
Now, to be fair, I did not contact HT about that particular incident because... HT has more valuable things to be doing with his time than slog thru chat logs to find out what's what.
I'm not a vulgar person in the buffer. I generally keep my smack game-related until some goobers start making it personal and non-game related with their insults. I take serious issue when people start lying about me.
Do you have any idea how many times I was muted right before some holiday? There was a period where I was muted almost every other week. By the same people, some of whom almost never engage on ch200.
Meh. Nothing is going to change.

Dude, you are abrasive, almost 24/7.
Look at you BBS signature. Look at your info about your location.
My guess is people are reporting you because they don't want you here. I watch you be an aggressive ultra melon on country channels too.
If you don't have anything nice to say, which you never do, shut up or move on.
You are being reported for being a pisspoor addition to the community. You are either pissing and moaning or trash talking as soon as the text buffer opens.
Life is short. Spend it doing something you enjoy. Your presence here reminds me of some disgruntled employee. This isn't a job.
-
Why do you have to exaggerate? This video belies your claims. And yeah, I think my sig lines are very applicable - you're proof. You won't even watch the video because it will show you wrong. There are plenty of times when I'm quiet or just coordinating things. And I always wtg base takes.
Watch the video - then I might take your opinion more seriously. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whKD7YkAFlY
<edit: what you're claiming is exactly the kind of misrepresentation I push back against.>

Shane has always been a trash talker. If you can't tolerate it, perhaps you should detune Channel 200 or mute him. Because otherwise Shane is one of the best fights you'll ever encounter.
Try it some day, you might enjoy it. In the meantime, it would be nice if you didn't try to make more people leave this game.

I've been here awhile and killed Shane a lot. I think your advice to detune 200 for 1 person is pretty stupid. Should I detune country also since he is mostly knight?
Do you have any other words of wisdom?
You might want to look into pilot stats... and weigh the pros and cons of his endless lip.
I enjoy 200, lots of good convo there. Never from Shane.
Or a good fight.. odd.
Maybe you're thinking of someone else.
-
Thanks, but to be fair these days I fight a bit less (never cared for furballs anyway) and have become more opinionated about the morning gameplay - but I do keep my talk game related until others make it not.
Lazer is just cranky and deflecting his angst with flippz onto me. :noid :neener:

Maybe ask HT to turn off killshooter? We're both knits. And once again you exaggerate. Did you watch the video yet? Can your ego handle it?
<edit: maybe check last months "stats" if that's what you're into.>

Don’t bring me in your trash. You do plenty to need to be muted. You start on me as soon as I log on.
-
No, I don't, and this is the misrepresenting I push back against. Plus, you really need to check your own weaksauce chat. You're growing quite an obsession with the Jokers. Maybe you can coordinate the .rpt with them?

take it like a man and shut up. you arent that important to be persecuted by mods. this is from a guy that once was suspended for saying I had a nicer buttt than anybody in the game. and I deserved the suspension.

Thanks for playing - you can step off my ankle now. Collect some stars on your way out, up your game.
But wait! Before you go, can you tell me what these mean - they're pretty subtle, amirite?

Whoa!
Bad example, chasing ppl from the game?
Ya sit and watch with folded hands where every single post I make is attacked by the same 3 ppl, who plaster my threads with attacks snd other games. 2 don’t even play anymore for 8+ yrs. Ya do or say NOTHING. I’m being chased from the game by 3 ppl. All because I’m trying to help, failure or not. Ys just dit and watch with sealed mouth. Disappointed with those who can’t see right from wrong. I’m forced to get nasty, because yall just sit on your hands about it. Then you call me nasty. But hey, thats O K.
Lets cut the two sided coin thing. It doesn’t bother yall watching someone trying to help get chased off? Pretty selective on morals and ethics. In fact some of you cheer them by saying nothing.
Phfffff! If yall don’t want me here I can move on, and then you can pamper the 3 low-lifes who did it 101 times, watching them destroy the game rep and skim players.
I don’t dislike yas, but give me a f$&@“ break. Suddenly you’re concerned about game rep.
Otherwise I cause no trouble at all.
I’d buy new gear to play if I wasn’t looking at a short life span here.
How many are their antics chasing off to chase me off? Burn down the whole house to rid one cockroach is ok? But “Quiet down on 200. <eye roll>
Live yas eho i’ve known for 30 yrs. But spare me the fake concern.
I lived coming back, but my experience has been totally horrific experience. I have 1.5 feet out.
I used the game to escape horrible most could never ever handle without one in the chamber, this made it a living breathing NIGHTMARE. Worst decision I ever made, and I hate myself for it, HT’s experience isn’t even close to being in the same ballpark.
Some of these same ppl sat on their hands while Tex threatened harm to my family. 1 yr later they were dead. Not by Tex, but they sat on their hands then too. And that was only one if serveral things I had to go through.
Shane, Culero was my mentor in AW, still talk to him almost daily. Just be you and turn it down a notch. Damn good pilot and fight.
-
What do you mean "stand on my own?"
Check your pm's, mmmkay, then get back to me.
You PM'd info on what happened. I did not even look at it to be honest. I can't do anything about it. That is just my point. I'm not trying to downplay or insult you. I am just saying there is one way to handle this situation, one way only. Call Dale and give him dates and times, then state your case. He has the ability to delve into the info and make a judgement.
-
Wow... just... wow... you don't even have to watch the video, just read the 3 lines of text in that latest message.

Not going to see the issue in 3 lines of text. Is there some part of my explanation that you don't understand? I thought I was being pretty clear but maybe I am just not saying it right.
-
You most certainly will see the issue as it relates directly to your suggestion about calling. Actually, the first line addresses that.

i think you should all come into monday night madness and get it out of your systems!!! 8pm EST in the SEA2. see ya then.....if you dare! LOL!!

I am clear of this.... hopefully it can get ironed out. We all know the game, while fun, is still not perfect.

I see shane hasn't changed one bit since I left.

I haven't squelched anyone on country channel for probably at least a decade. He got one a couple days ago.

Left the game for other games, not coming back. Long story short is theres several people who ruin the game, and then wonder why the numbers dwindle.

Ahhh ha!!
The numbers are NOT dwindling, in fact they are growing.
I sense the truth lays in the damage Mr. PP on PM caused with the same backward reality in double talk to make us all run,….to his superior holiness. Ya know, “ he’s just looking out for us” <vomits>This is the result of what was allowed by the silent community who just stand silent and watch. This is excuse shifting, because the truth IS the opposite. Nonsense.
The half truth is, some are out of hand, but that has also calmed down. Not buying the readon, I see repeating a well known sermon as power of suggestion...
Dwindling happened yrs ago, rebuilding is happening now. Ya suffer from what you allow.
Fact is, 200 has been fun lately, the bbs is your poison
BTW, 144 last night
-
Animal, the numbers have always gone up in winter months and slide back when it gets warm out. Heck it even did that when we had a ton of people. The ebbs and flows are getting lower and lower as the years tick by. It is what it is.

Oh I know the cycle. We’ve seen this since dirt. My point is we actually gained numbers from mid-summer to current. Gaining in summer breaks the norm, quirk or good sign remains to be seen.
Always shining negative light on numbers, in open air will not help the situation, its discouragement. Buisness 101. I don’t take it as “good intent”, ”just looking out for us” , it’s knee deep in motive. That’s not rocket science, its common logic. I didn’t reply to #1, I replied to #101.
Ya, we’ve been here before. In both, from beginning.
It is what it is. But, I think you know me as not being a defeatist.
Setting up HT for an interview and nothing positive to report, like an update, would be PR suicide. Other sims would love that, no?
Anyway, hope you’re doing well, glad you’re still around
People who know it all, absolutely do not.
