Title: [Denied] Ultra-Trusted Donator Application.
Post by: RainbowCat on December 18, 2015, 10:45:03 pm
IGN: 圣诞节的猫 (Christmas Cat)
Current Rank: Donator (Normal $10 Donation)
Age: 17
SteamID: STEAM_0:0:79569436, 64 is: 76561198119404600
Rank Applying For: Ultra Trusted Donator
Have you been banned from one of our servers: Yes. I can't remember what is was, but here's a link to appeal:
https://bloxgaming.com/forum/index.php/topic,692.0.html
Why you are applying: Because I want to, and I love this server!
How can you help the server: Probably helping around with helping new players and "enforcing" the rules. (I'll drop the shooting if spawn-killing!)
Any staff that can/have vouch(ed) for you: Shifty.
( Comment below to vouch! ((if your staff)) )

Some Paragraph:
   So, I've made it this far on the server at 1 week. If I get this rank, I will dedicate myself to this server, and may leave ACF. ACF has been my life of Garry's Mod for a while, but Spacebuild I find more fun. Like I said, I would help new players, enforce rules, and always be on. I'd "try" to prevent spawnkill, and shooting of any weapons on the spawn planet(s). I hope I get this rank, because I love this server. And I love all the staff on it.


NOTICE: USE THE POLL TOO.

-1. Was sent some pics that show him abusing his position as donator to attempt to backseat moderate. I will post them first chance I get tomorrow, unless @Scarecrow can get them here faster.

Depending on the permissions given to Ultra-Trusted Donators, it shouldn't really matter unless they're able to jail, kick, or anything along those lines.
I'm not saying that they'd do it in the first place, but they have to learn when taking it too far, really means taking it too far.
It'll be a +1 for me, but they do show that tendency to use powers when they're not supposed to, and for the wrong reasons.

When these screenshots get posted, if they are evident of backseat moderating I am going to change my vote to a -1

I'll confess here. I was backseat moderating, and yes.
I was trying to get rid of compressors on spawn.
No need for evidence, all you need is right here.


I am seriously sorry for abusing my power as donator,
and I promise what happened last night will not happen
again.. I'm just that type of person who wants to breathe
on spawn. Also, hideway66 was placing the compressors. I
saw him place a windmill and a array of compressors, so I tp'd them
out of the planet for the safeness of Oxygen and Nitrogen.


This is for Rain, so he can change his vote to -1.

Were there any other staff members on?

It was only Cat, myself, and two other people that were breaking the rules, which would include hideaway99.

Then it's not really backseat moderating. I still keep the +1 Because no other staff were on at the time. If he's the highest rank on, there can't be anyone else moderating.

@Rain we shouldn't let him off. Proper actions include using the report command, votekicking, contacting staff via steamchat/pm on here/email. Backseat moderation is absolutely unacceptable.

Did he do any of those things?

Nothing that involved actual moderation, rather threats that hinted towards them being staff.
Most of it was just vulgar language being thrown at the two other players, the threats being mentioned earlier, rather than just reporting it they must've just lost it.

well from what iv read, It sounds like this is basically the same as mario/troll backseat moderation. Backseat moderation is backseat moderation, no matter how you plate it.


Tho i do have a question, was any physical action taken? Or was it all just threats and warnings? Additionally what were the threats exactly? Elaborate please.

Threats in general, but they were also killing them and teleporting their props around, but that's only because they were trying to spam compressors on the spawn, so It's not completely their fault.
The two people he was arguing with were the ones that set him off, major rule-breaking and what not.

Well not to bomb your or his parade here or anything but from what you just said is the following issues:
-Destroying players builds on earth(Prop damage/destruction)
-Spawn killing
-Backseat moderation
-Mingebag behavior(Teleporting props/players, General asshole behavior even if its just retaliation to him/her)
-And just general threatening(Assuming along lines of "if you dont remove we'l ban you" or "if you dont remove you'l be banned")


That alone is enough for a few day ban+ right there if its his/her first offense, If you've been banned before id ban you for a week easily. Anyways according to posts above there wasn't an attempt to contact staff to remedy the situation or report them with ingame commands so that doesn't help the case either.


Anyways~ We don't got definite proof here for all that i listed(Even with confession) nor do i want to go out of my way to ban him/all involved myself or have someone here ban all involved, However the thought of passing trusted or higher status to someone who got set off so easily by one mingebag who's efforts could'v ALL been avoided with a simple life support room with a radius of 3500 is a bit of illogical decision if you ask me.


If they were prop spamming, Okay i could understand there precautions and actions, However compressors are SOOO easy to counter without staff its kinda useless to even try to grief with them, its honestly easier to just nuke a server then drain earth. If the earth lacking oxygen and cata is AFK, you can set up a small LS setup and get air, you can also vent oxygen into the atmosphere and balance it out again or create pockets of air until cata gets back to restore earth to breathable status in under a minute or two. (Any player can restore earth however its far easier for players who have pre-built set ups to refill earth as acquiring 2m+ air is far easier with a pro then some noob with a x50 multiplier)


Really all n all your actions were completely unnecessary and spaztic to say the least. It really has dropped even my own opinion of you whom i have not yet met due to personal reasons and issues. (I also need to reinstall the stuffz) Anyways thats all id like to say, I don't support this application until you learn to cool your head a bit more and chill out a bit when it comes to mingebaggery as your playing the game where the word mingebag was born.


Note: No offence intended but thats just what i read and thats basically what i got out of it, Apologies if your taking offense to me calling your actions spaztic, Tho i would like you to reflect on this in the future for hopes that you may react better next time.


tl;dr -1 because OP responded to mingebag with mingebag tactics, -1 until OP Gets there act together rather then acting like a spaztic child with "donator power".

@Bert John do you mind clarifying who you're talking about? I can't decide if you're talking about RainbowCat or Scarecrow, as you've met Cat before AFAIK but this isn't Scarecrow's application.

I don't think it was directed towards me, but either way, the issues you've listed Bert are caused by the one's whom they were dealing with, and not the application poster.


I've played Garry's Mod since Its early public release in 2005, and I'm no stranger when it comes to the kinds of people that you would've, or I've actually have come across @Bert John
I was simply giving a warning based on how Cat would've handled the situation, if they were given powers, and given what powers that rank is given there shouldn't be much concern.
As for them applying for staff, I'd definitely keep an eye out, I'm not saying that they would do it again but that's always a possibility.

Oh damn, Just re-read it. Thats really confusing actually. Anyways to clarify my post, From what i read so far is scarecrow reported rainbowcat for backseat moderation. My post is directed to rainbowcat but used scarecrow's post as a quote for context to my post.


I dont recall meeting a rainbowcat, From what i see so far is this is a new Donator, Last time i was on with donators was that damig or something or other and there was mario~ and thats it for terms of donators.

Right, well if there are no objections I'm going to go ahead and deny this.
