CS:S Server Update: Progress, Current Status, and What’s Next ×

Locked ADMIN ABUSE (?)


Recommended Posts

 

 

1: My ingame name: OJ
2: My SteamID: STEAM_0:0:88184802
3: Name of the admin(s) involved: Lews, Graf von Schnapsberg
4: What server did it happen on: ZE
5: Map: ze_LOTR_Minas_Tirith, ze_ATIX_PANIC_B3T, ze_rocket_escape_r1.
6: Time and date: 2024-07-30
7: Explanation of the situation: GRAF was spectating several players and muting them for spamming since LOTR_Minas (some justified but others not). I realized that there is some abuse by this "trial admin" since he muted me in mines, several in atix panic and finally he liked me since he muted several in rocket_escape. I know how far the thin line of spam goes (since I recognize several of my mutes) but in this case someone for making a minimal noise and it wasn't even ME!!! Without saying a word he mutes giving as a reason "spam". I think this "trial admin" mutes the selection, since for several minutes there were noises (which I reiterate were not mine". I prefer that you see the evidence and give your opinion.
8: Proof

PROOF 1 (video): CONTEXT: In the first 3 seconds, in the chat you can see how he warns Korv1, then he mutes him [00:16] (correct). I activate the microphone without making any noise and thus demonstrate that he mutes without justification [00:21] this same thing happened in previous maps and the same thing happened "MUTED".

PROOF 2: There was so much harassment and unjustified muting that another admin removed the mute

BONUS (  ͠° ͜ʖ ͡°) : This is not the first time this character is involved, I don't usually complain about these stupidities because I also abuse with the microphone but I think this is already becoming an abuse and for sure it's not only me. This was taken on 03-Jul-24 at his request, take your pick who dies (there were several of us that day for the same reason).

¡Judge for yourself!   ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hello and thanks you for taking time to create this report.

The first proof you sent, for me the admin action was correct.
Few players wanted to spam and when you have multiples players who activate their mic, it's harder to find who is spamming. 
By keeping your microphone turned on even without making noise/sound, you make the admin job harder to keep the server in a good state.

The mute is perfectly justified, and it was a small length. 
This is written in the rules, use your common sense.

For proof 2 & 3: A screenshot without any real context does not mean anything, please provide demo or demo informations where this potential abuse was made and LSA will review it.

Regards.

While I was on the server, you were doing this all the time with a few people, i didn't want to do anything since it wasn't a tryhard session (chill maps). However, some people may be disturbed by this, even though it is silent spam. The sign on the right may be distracting for some players. So I don't think this behavior is correct. (just to give my opinion)

LSA will look into this matter.

Hello OJ,
I review demo you provided list maps and proof.

First thing in map ze_lotr_minas_tirith_v3_3, Admins did the right thing by mute someone who spam/soundboard/interrupt leader. After your mute has been expired, you use soundboard stfu to leader during team tryhard in hard map. Not only that, you type in a chat to admin with inappropriate language (Proof 2) after you got mute again even though admin already warn to stop spam or do wrong things. This is unacceptable behavior in harassing and insulting other player/admin.

Second thing in map ze_atix_panic_b3t, ze_rocket_escape_r1, Admin Graf has already warn people to stop spamming or use mic and do keyboard typing sound effect because some player distract gameplay in atix/nemesis/knife mode for those who love this map like Kumalala said.
As Rushaway said, people join them to do spam when the mic is actived, it will be difficult for admins to find out who is using the mic to disturb/soundboard/spam including opening the mic without making sound.

About Proof 3, this screenshot doesn't help and it makes no sense.

Feel free to contact me on Discord if you have provide clip of Proof 3 in map predator.

    • hello maxing  after i reviewed the demo for more details and i concluded that ned item can be used aggressively to defend zms (as ransmi the mapper mentioned that ) but mobile seems that he went too far and jumped inside zms often and often then in jump part he couldn't make the jump bcs he was getting damaged by zms but the defense was kinda bad so he failed and died. although he has to be much more careful since Ned item needed for later part to heal teammates, i hope this case wont happen again or there will be more decisions have to be taken same thing goes for other stuffs  as for Harraga said, he mentioned that doesnt know the map well which is hard to believe, as an admin you shouldn't tell players to doorhug (where some doors explode) bcs its not  good at all from admin perspective. topic closed 
    • That first demo clip has half the team doing nothing jerking off to anime sprays at the top maybe if a real ∑SΣӼ leader was on they would have told the players to stay down and defend. Mobile using Ned that way is the best way to use it and he's the only reason why zombies didn't get up sooner to be honest.
    • it might be crazy for some but theres this feature that nide runs right now its called !selfmute it mutes people in your end so you dont hear them i dont know if this feature is used much these days but it can really help
    • I'm gonna butt in and say this cause multiple people have asked.  Using Ned to aggressively overdefend like that isnt trolling. You practically get 20+ seconds of invulnerability if used right and is pretty much the "meta" thing to do especially if the Bart player is also doing it. In the clip you posted you hardly lost because of him getting swarmed, being unable to make the jump, and losing heal. When you climb the ladder you can see like half or more of the team being stacked in the corner on top not even bothering to defend.  Maybe if this was repeated behavior across multiple rounds it would be trolling but from just the clip you posted what he was doing what he should have been doing with an item like that.
