What I think is hilarious is that no one has figured out that sling is a moderator, perhaps the  moderator.:eek:

Oops! Guess I better watch what I say from now on :D

I totally agree. Talk about power going to your head... HTC should be the only ones uttering those words. No game needs godmode mods.

Hitech was online last night for a spell - maybe it was him who warned you CB

If it wasn't a htc staff member though.. I dunno, i guess i think what was said in the warning was over the line.

I wonder will u get muted if you swear in russian or any other forigne tounge?
My point is if only those who type offensive words in english are muted then that reaks of descrimination!!!!
HT you might want to look into that.

Not trying to be a smartass but some joker might just have a case if he was silly enoghf to pursue it!
So unless the the online moderators know every language on the planet maybe they should go to a software controlled monitoring systym.

The "my rules, my game" line should have been a clue Chairbot.  Any clues as to who that might be? :)   WTG, I am sure you earned some ponts for yourself there - hope you enjoyed it.  You are probably lucky you can still log on, you were probably really close to what $14.95 was worth to hitech.

Well I agree we need moderators but I also know that some of them just flat out abuse their power.

I was warned by a moderator for giving a guy a "check 6".

Not the automated one but one I typed myself..1 time!

The moderator told me the guy didn't deserve one so I should stop.

?!?!?

When I asked why I shouldn't give a "check 6" to this guy I was told not to push my luck.

I may be new but I've yet to found a pilot I wouldn't give a "check 6" to and I'll be damned if I'll stop just because a moderator doesn't like someone.

it'd be nice if you had a screenshot of the error message box to support this (and send into HTC).

if what you say is true... well, gee.... yanno?

alt-s  is screenshot.   it saves to the main HT directory as a .bmp file, you'd need to use mspaint or something to crop out extraneous scenery and rename it as a more managable .jpg file.

the error message boxes don't appear on film. (alr-r)

That's exactly the problem with giving people anonymous powers..

Shit walks up their heads and they think they can act like Gods with the safety of anonymity.

Have a bad day? Well let's push around some people in the arena..

Wife not giving popsicle? Well let's boost yer ego muting people..

A million possible scenarios there.

Some people just don't know what to do when their ego takes a shot. HT slapped me upside the head here on the board a week or two ago. Took me by surprise, for I am the great hblair. A former player of warbirds, used to be a trainer here, a CM too, and also helped run the CT for a while. But still he served me a cold cup of STFU! That was some bitter STFU. Tasted awful. But sometimes even great wonderful veterans like myself need to STFU. So you know if I need to STFU occasionally, you peons who mouth off in the MA do too. So STFU!

Thanks!

Though I'm sure one day I will be muted,I am very pleased to see the MA moderated...It wasn't so long ago toejam slinging was a common response for being shot down.
