Title: randomly muted.
Post by: Onfir0NE on June 24, 2012, 01:18:46 PM
So, just a few minutes ago I, minimized the game for a few seconds to check BBS. I come back to find I have a muted notification prompting a mute for 1500 minutes. I'm not sure if this is a joke or something but this is quite frustrating... because I haven't typed anything on country or 200 for at least 10 minutes, even with that I said nothing that deemed be muted for.

IGN is Onfire1

You don't get randomly muted. Posting here will not help. You should email support@hitechcreations.com if you believe you were improperly muted.

It's not hat I'm looking for help. just a little pissed that I got a mute prompt without so much as a warning or anything. and it seemed fairly random because like i stated I didn't say anything that requires me to be muted.

Somebody must have reported you for something.  Can not image what you could have said to be muted as i seen you on 200.  Hope it get clear out.   :salute

Well, I hadn't said anything offensive to anyone all day. :P even then my insults are quite petty. Some are as blunt as saying "you suck!"   :furious Actually i was having a pretty good day until this happened.

Count yourself lucky, I got 8 days for joshing TwinBoom for a few minutes using nothing even remotely close to a curse word.  :frown:



Think if someone is a little thin skinned they can ask all their buds to report you and you're done for.  :huh

Not sure it's fair, but it is what it is for now. :bhead

ya know, with all the guys I have on my ignore list most of these threads look pretty barren. Makes it hard to come up with cartoons when you get rid of the "usual suspects"  :D

Funny thing is, is that I only have 4 guys on ignore, but it really makes the threads pretty barren.

Oh,  and who wants to see cartoons about the same 3 or 4 people. It would get boring pretty quick.

You simply have them interact with eachother. One could say, "here you wear the sheep skin awhile", and go from there.

If you feel you were muted unfairly just call HTC Skuzzy will look into it. If it was a mass reporting and you didn't do anything wrong then whoever reported you will have to answer to Skuzzy for false reporting. Just call HTC.

Betty, Midway being muted can't be false. I think Einstein wrote a theory about it. :huh

Besides what are you doing in here? Don't you have Pitbulls to save on Facebook?  :ahand

Not sure what I said to deserve the mute and I did send an email to the support address to find out.  I said nothing remotely involving cursing or name calling.  I do admit to pushing TwinBoom's buttons, in fun, he being the enemy, knowing he couldn't respond due to probably being muted as well, and did enjoy the subsequent fights and resulting pwnage he laid on me.  Many have disparaged my fighting and choice of aeroplanes plenty so I considered it routine joshing. 

Having been involved on the other side of this with others, also while I was muted to where I couldn't respond, I did not think what i said was a mute worthy incident.

I see far worse on 200 often, and not being sure what exactly the rules are with respect to pushing the enemy's buttons, it seems I am finding out the hard way by approaching the line to see if I stepped over it.

I'm thinking that maybe if enough people aren't happy with you and you start to push someone's buttons on 200, lots of people see it as a reason to express their dislike of you for previous events and they start reporting you.  After some fixed number of reports within a fixed period of time, the result is an automatic 8 day mute.

Not sure that it's fair since others may be biased from prior events and are incorrectly reporting you for what appears to be a less than mute worthy interaction with one player on 200.

Learning the limits as I go, and bearing the resulting punishment, whether deserved imho or not.

I won't go into the specific details here and will let HTC respond to my email instead after they review the logs. :salute

I would like to add that HTC did review the logs and while I am close to the line, I was just informed that I did get my privileges back.

So, point is if you think it was an unjust mute, HTC will take their time to review and make it right, if appropriate.

 :salute HTC :rock
