       This is about issues with ([s]removed[/s]). I know he's a friend
       of Madman, so a bit of conflict interest, but I'm gonna post
       this anyway. 1. He's allowed to play on this server, even when
       he gives unauthorized players (Wilrest) the password. Explain
       that? 2. He mooches off everyone that crosses his way for
       weapons and food. 3. He has used some type of cheat mode, that
       allows him to go underground with out being seen. This occurred
       Saturday (approximately 80s 1460w) around 7:00pm. I was in the
       south, heard one gun shot that was very close behind me, turned
       around and nobody was there. Kept running and heard two more gun
       shots that had to be at close range because of how loud the
       sound was. Again, nobody there when I scanned the land. Then
       boasts how he is the "best player" and can "kill me" or anyone,
       without having any respect to his name. 4. Is constantly rude
       and belligerent to other players in chat and especially on the
       server's teamspeak, and then brags some more about how is the
       best PvP player.
       I'm not the only one with these concerns about ([s]removed[/s]).
       You can ask Candor Falcon, Wilrest, Belinik88, Tarkow, Kevin,
       Bumbaloo, or AB42 and they can all attest to my facts above.
       If you continue to have players with this mentality on your
       server in the future, it's not a problem, but let me know so I
       can find a different spot to game. Thank you for reading.

       I normally would have removed this from the forum and given you
       a warning but I want this to serve as an example of what NOT to
       do. The RULES are clear on this. Listed both on our website and
       in the forums.

       [quote]As stated in the rules section of our website:
       "Do NOT engage in negative or accusatory conversation about
       other players!"
       I will now add, this includes past players as well. Nothing
       positive or productive comes from talking shit about another
       person.
       1.  If you have reason to believe that another player is
       cheating, report it to me. I will deal with it.
       2.  If you have a conflict with another player that you are
       unable to resolve or pacify yourself, report it to me. I will
       deal with it.
       3.  If someone is talking shit about another player or otherwise
       creating a negative or combative atmosphere on the server,
       report it to me. I will deal with it.
       I think you can see my theme here. Under no circumstances is it
       acceptable to talk about people behind their backs or to accuse
       or suggest that another player is cheating/hacking or griefing
       on the server chat, teamspeak or the forums. If you suspect any
       of this, come to me and let me deal with it. If you must discuss
       this with another player, do so privately, not in view of other
       players. I have received numerous complaints now that some of
       you have been engaged in this negative talk.
       Consider this your warning![/quote]
       I have removed the name of the accused from your original post
       but I have left the rest as it was.
       I will contact you privately to attempt to find a resolution to
       the problem.
       Ladies and gentlemen, if you have a problem, TELL ME privately.
       Do NOT ever post a complaint about another player on the forum!

       I saw Madman's reply to you and he covered some of it but I will
       reiterate for people.
       The rules state that you may give a password temporarily without
       them having applied if you have admin permission to do so.
       We can check logs so I can see exactly who says what.
       Get over "mooching". If someone wants items and you don't want
       to hand them out then don't; but their interactions with other
       players are not your concern unless they are creating a hostile
       environment.
       And just because you can't figure out how someone is doing
       something or gets the drop on you do not accuse them of
       cheating. This is probably one of the first lessons you learn
       when playing online; I would say the first lesson is that online
       play differs drastically from "single player" or "at-home" play.
       Steeper learning curve.
       You were pretty active in chat the other day calling out the OF
       clan.
       If some of those names were polled, and they will be asked,
       knowing several of them they will give a more moderate and
       tempered response.
       Firstly, the claims about being the best PvP player are falsae
       regards to anyone other than me. (Insert ironic humour and
       sarcasm with truth).
       The closeness of sounds and how you perceive them are
       subjective; OF toodamngoofy used to hear auger sounds at like
       7k; I could hear them at 5k.
       Just because you say it had to be close does not mean it
       was...it may have been...but claiming that fact is a logical
       fallacy of reasoning.
       Just because you can't see someone doesn't mean someone is
       cheating. I have been accused many times of cheating previously
       and it was merely a matter of outsmarting/outplanning another
       player borne out of  greater gaming experience.
       As Madman said there is also a post on why we do not have a
       complaints section. PM the admins, period the end. For questions
       and for grievances.
       Not everyone's personality meshes but if you have an issue with
       someone in-game challenge them in-game and keep it civil.
       Maybe a death match in Ground Zero.
       If it were me I would already have tunnels, mines, and /home set
       at points there before I called you out.
       Another tactic I would use in areas is a 2 deep hole behind
       every tree in a certain radius so when someone came through I
       could be out of sight at any moment.
       You just never know.
       The next time an incident happens shout a keyword and then PM us
       relevant information and say "I said moonblast" during the
       incident.
       What this does is let me search the logs for a unique word, in
       this case "moonblast", to quickly find the text and take it in
       context.
       We have systems in place for handling issues and please use them
       appropriately. We want a drama-free server and if there is a
       good cop, bad cop scenario Madman is usually the good cop.
