Hi ya Fellas

[Nimmer]

This is my first post sorry there is a slight negative part to it.

I have been a fan for quite some time of TPU I mean what an amazing community. I owe a big deal of gratitude to TPU for helping me build some mighty fine Rigs which I sell as a small side business and play with. 9 times of of 10 if there is hardware and/ or software issue I go to TPU first and the anwer is usually there before anyone else. High REZ / high AA FPS gaming is my passion and it would not have been possible without the community here so a big thanks. I know this may belong in the RIG section but there is a bigger picture to my post.

Here is my first serious RIG I have sold 3 of these exact one so far to small customer base I have and honestly have to admit that all ideas come from your community
here are some screen shots. Please any all comments I take seriously cause it is your community that got me here. I used thumb not to hurt bandwidth in non rig section. THANKS AGAIN TPU!!! I owe it all to you MUCH LOVE

I do feel it is a small responsibility of mine to also to report a small issue I had in a server today at about 10am I was playing in your TPU BC2 server. The map was Laguna Presa. The teams were sorely uneven and admin asked to stop spawn camping and even up the teams. As a good chance to buddy up and get to know some members of TPU (they were about 3 on the team that was capped out and getting spawn camped) I tried switching 4 or five times but kept getting the ugly "you have switched too many times sign"
The game finished quick and when a new map came up, I immediately switched. My squad was me and 3 TPU members.

The second I got in someone screamed (scream means not yelled but screamed) "CALM DOWN NOOB CAMPER NIMMER GET SOME SKILL" I typed nicely please tell me whose mic was open cause I wanted to get to know the TPU guys name and explain why I couldn't switch last map. All jokes aside I was shocked when your server came up on the server browser it was exciting to me to see the TPU community in sick FPS game like BC2. I typed again please dont be afraid to tell me your name" cause I could not speak in team chat cause his mic was open. The response I got was "stop typing in caps noob camper NIMMER" loud voice but not a scream. he open mic i heard "bitch and faggot" in the back ground, not a big deal cause BC2 says worse than that Some how I think the insults were directed towards me. I didnt give up , "I typed again please tell me your name I cant speak cause your mic is open" The response form the heavy breathing open mic was, "here let me fix it for you" I was kicked......

This is not a flame post or trying to get anyone in trouble, just I think the admin with open mic who kicked me was totally in the wrong and really should take a step back and think about how maybe texts and open mics and being rude to someone who respects your clan and community was really trying to "fit in" and was shoved out and should know how to communicate better. We all know hows texts can be misconstrued all the time. I have no hard feelings towards TPU or the ADMIN in question, but seriously, this was not right.

we use Teamspeak for our voice chat, and we can tell who is talking with that. I would recommend getting that, info in my sig.

I would like to know who was on your team, all three if possible. it is concerning that a member with admin powers was acting that way. did you happen to hit tab, or see any names of the tpu members? that surely does not represent [TPU]'s attitude and expected demeanor ... i would hope you keep coming back as that is not the norm on our server. I am working so i don't play during the day, but I get on at 4EST normally, if you want to join then.

This does bring up the question, if TPU's name is being endorsed for "Official Servers" does TPU have liability?

I'm thinking the servers are self moderated and it's a shame some people act like that.

 

[brandonwh64]

Yes the teamspeak server is were all the TPU guys gather to talk mad crap or to communicate around the battlefield.

do that nimmer! also fill in your system specs and get a avatar then prop your feet up and stay awhile

 

[Easy Rhino]

what time did this happen? i can search the events log.

 

[Easy Rhino]

i checked the events list and i have to tell ya, nimmer, you got kicked for being a douche.

i unfortunately cannot cut and paste from the events log yet but talking in caps and complaining and calling people out in the middle of the game will get you kicked no matter the reason.

next time, calm down and take a deep breath. if you have a problem with someone then kindly find out who it is without creating a chat room out of the game.

Hi Nimmer, welcome to TPU!

I'm really sorry to hear that you were treated like that in the game; it's well out of order and most people on here are very decent and want to help out fellow enthusiasts.

W1zzard runs TPU and the forums and operates them to a very high standard, so drop him a PM and I'm sure he'd be very interested in this incident.

And finally, I hope some of those posts you found so helpful were mine.

EDIT: Just seen Easy Rhino's post: looks like your actions were possibly misinterpreted or didn't fit in with the ethos of that environment, perhaps. Also, see Easy's post below, before PMing anyone.

actually, w1z isnt the one to contact. in regards to the BC2 clan, post on the BC2 forum or PM myself of digibucc directly. don't waste w1zzard's time.

 

[digibucc]

yeah nimmer... after hearing what actually happened i think you may have bipolar. you were incredibly quiet and kind in your post here, but event logs show a completely different personality.

we still don't know who was talking on voip, as there are no logs of that. but the admin who was on doesn't use voip, and kicked you for causing a ruckus.

as easy said, next time take a breath, take their name, and come to easy or i with a pm, or very shortly tpuclan.com will be running with a contact page.

Thanks Easy, I don't play these games so didn't know. Also, I've edited my post, as I hadn't seen yours before posting (only 1 minute apart).

 

[mdsx1950]

If it was me i would have verbally destroyed that person and left the game before he kicked me out lol.



But then again im sure there must be a reason behind this. TPU has never been unfair to anyone, so just probably a small misunderstanding or as digibucc said, you might be bipolar
