I guess the title should have been "aws is no longer admin," but that is long. I'm not leaving FT, its just that I am having my admin taken off in FTC because when I played with AP he said teams are unbalanced and that it is my fault by my inaction. He must be right, he can't be wrong about the procedings of his server. He asked for admins to do their job and balance teams, so I switched to CT. Then he said it again. I thought it was going back and forth with T/CT victories, but again, AP cant be wrong in this sense, so I swtiched to T thinking he meant T was weak. Then he said teams needed balance again and I went back to CT as he was leaving in a huff. I x-fired him that I was confused and doing what I could to help. He said "remind me to take away your admin priviledges because you are useless," and so I did so by way of this thread. Not too sure why AP can't balance the teams as he sees fit, I usually don't try to balance unless non-admin players make the request. I never could give money or health, all I could do is switch people. Everytime I did I got bitched at by the one switchd and they immediately try to go back. Whenever my team is getting beat I try harder, learning from mistakes, and coaxing my team to work as just that, a team. If teams were always balanced then poor players would have no reason to perform better. No one would ever say, "my team is getting owned I need to man up." Add to this that AP had been in the game long enough to acrue about a 75:100 rec, while I had about a 12:25. When I joined there were many admins on and server close to full. I did take note that T was at about 300, and CT 220. However, my gameplay timeframe did not show a gross misbalance. When I got called out for not doing my job there were fewer members on and server less full. I guess I was the only admin in there, but I coulda swore there were others, including AP. AP has said admins haven't balanced teams before. When he did I would speak up about it, probably the only one, and thus the only one to be at fault. AP gave no action himself for me to learn from besides switching to the losing team(which I learned from and do myself regularly). AP also did not provide a clearcut direction as to which side he felt teams were unbalanced. Explaining my action of going back and forth between teams. Though this action was ineffective because I was working with a .5 kdr at the time. Anyway, sorry for being useless. I would like my admin priviledges back, I can't votekick if Goose is sitting in spec. |

Admittedly, I was not on the server when this went down but, as a high ranking admin, I felt compelled to reply to this thread. AwsedreswA wrote ...

He must be right, he can't be wrong about the procedings of his server. You should not have to be told that you need to balance teams. As an admin you should take the initiative. That is the whole point of your being an admin; keeping the server running smoothly. Or could you not give a shit less about team balance (a smooth server)? Do you enjoy being admin just so you can punish people? You were not doing your job…bottom line. AwsedreswA wrote ... I thought it was going back and forth with T/CT victories, but again, AP cant be wrong in this sense Right, because it’s not possible he could have seen something you didn’t. AwsedreswA wrote ... Then he said teams needed balance again and I went back to CT as he was leaving in a huff. I x-fired him that I was confused and doing what I could to help. He said "remind me to take away your admin priviledges because you are useless," and so I did so by way of this thread. Again, you should know your duties as an admin and take the initiative. You should not have to be reminded to do your job. Furthermore, I think your point of this thread was not to remind alexh to remove your privs. You could have done that via a PM or email. No, you decided to make a thread so you could publicly plead your case in the vain hope that the community would come to your side. Why else would you have put it in the “FT Clan Forum†and not in the “FTC†forum? This has nothing to do with the clan. But, you figured the clan forum gets more traffic. AwsedreswA wrote ... Not too sure why AP can't balance the teams as he sees fit, I usually don't try to balance unless non-admin players make the request. Then why are you an admin? If you admit not to paying attention and doing your job, why are you admin? Were you thinking that alexh would do all the work? If so, then why are you admin? You are useless. You should recognize when teams are fucked and correct them. The onus is on you, not “non-admin†players, to recognize and fix the issue that is going on. AwsedreswA wrote ... I never could give money or health, all I could do is switch people. Everytime I did I got bitched at by the one switchd and they immediately try to go back. Actually, switching players is very effective; if not more effective than giving health/cash. Health and cash are a band aid on bullet wound. We give health and cash in the hope that it will fix things. More than not, we end up switching a player after we have to continue to give heath and cash until we realize that nothing is getting fixed. AwsedreswA wrote ... If teams were always balanced then poor players would have no reason to perform better. No one would ever say, "my team is getting owned I need to man up." So let me get this straight…balanced teams are bad? I’m not even going to respond further to this inane statement. AwsedreswA, you’re an idiot. AwsedreswA wrote ... Add to this that AP had been in the game long enough to acrue about a 75:100 rec, while I had about a 12:25. Just so I’m clear, your downfalls as an admin are is fault. Awesome. AwsedreswA wrote ... When I joined there were many admins on and server close to full. I did take note that T was at about 300, and CT 220. However, my gameplay timeframe did not show a gross misbalance. Word, it’s all about you. AwsedreswA wrote ... When I got called out for not doing my job there were fewer members on and server less full. Gee, I wonder why? Perhaps it is because teams were fucked and people were fed up. Wait, you think that uneven teams are good. AwsedreswA wrote ... I guess I was the only admin in there, but I coulda swore there were others, including AP. Way to pass the buck, AwsedreswA. There could have been 20 admins there. But, you still should do everything you can to help out the server. You did nothing. Now it’s time to reap the whirlwind. AwsedreswA wrote ... AP has said admins haven't balanced teams before. Right. I’m sure he said that. AwsedreswA wrote ... When he did I would speak up about it, probably the only one, and thus the only one to be at fault. Doubtful. But, would you like a tissue or a warm shoulder on which to cry? AwsedreswA wrote ... AP gave no action himself for me to learn from besides switching to the losing team(which I learned from and do myself regularly). I didn’t know that you needed someone to help you along. But, AwsedreswA, I guess when you have been used to riding the ascending platform on the short bus all your life why should I expect you to do anything for yourself? AwsedreswA wrote ... AP also did not provide a clearcut direction as to which side he felt teams were unbalanced. You were unable to see for yourself? Goddamn, you must have been a shitty admin. AwsedreswA wrote ... Explaining my action of going back and forth between teams. Though this action was ineffective because I was working with a .5 kdr at the time. It is still the duty of every admin to try to balance teams. But, because you think uneven teams are good, why would you care in the first place? AwsedreswA wrote ... Anyway, sorry for being useless. I would like my admin priviledges back, I can't votekick if Goose is sitting in spec. No, I don’t think you should get your privs back. This is only the last in a marred record of admining that you have amassed. The only reason you want your admin privs back is to kick one person, Goose. Still, you couldn’t care less about fair teams. No, you’d rather have to ability to kick one person every once in awhile. Edited Thu Nov 09 2006, 02:07PM |

I think team balancing should be an admin requirement personally. This thread, and what went on, is going to raise some contraversy. I do anything to keep the teams balanced, that usually means swapping people almost within a 5 round time period. I always swap the person with the highest kdr just to make it as fair as possible. I didn't realize that all of this was going on, and this should be a heads up to all admins that team balance is a vital factor. | ||
