seems pretty clear

tf2center, like the church, deserves a tithe

NinjaMooCow

you'd be better off being banned from tf2center

two words

1. Cancer
2. Center

seeing masternoob at i55 walking around like he's really important vs seeing masternoob at i58 alone and miserable was really quite funny tbh

also my flatmate was banned for being my flatmate xD

im not trying to decline the fact that tf2c did a shitty thing, what's important here is that they have done it ONCE AGAIN and it keeps repeating over and over and over and over gain, there's a microthread within this thread about retarded ban reasons, you know it as an objective fact: 1)tf2c admins are stupid shits, period 2)they will ban you for WHATEVER THEY feel like, 3)you don't want that - you dont mess with them: you ignore them, when you see an admin in a lobby you bail, simple as that;

i can not understand how can you be so naive to put another site link in your name, go to tf2c and be like 'hey you cant ban me for that' yes they can and they will because they're stupid shits and it was proven a number of times, it is a tendency no if and or buts about it

bottom line is don't be surprised when you get banned, you know these people, everybody knows how vile they are, don't be suprised, just play any other site there is, no point in exposing them as those who still play there either dont visit tftv anyways or know it and lay low coz no point in fighting on their grounds

btw why if mn was at lan you didnt approach him or make a contact or something

I don't really think this kind of thread needs to be made every time this sort of thing happens, especially given how unsurprising it is at this point.

it keeps the dislike for tf2c going, which i dont see as a bad thing tbh

also the guy probably just wanted to vent

They're no fun :(

(Links to https://faceit.com/en/tf2, bypassing their word/URL filter by percent-encoding (google ascii to hex, replace spaces by %))

I wonder if that mod was click-happy and actually opened the link, that behavior could be abused

u guys who get banned and then cry about it are actually insane

you know what you're doing, its not funny

pretty much if you were in the situation handling a site and you see someone else advertising their site on your site

and if someone is not respecting you as an admin and is clearly mocking you

9 times out of 10 you will ban them

i do not get where this whole 'they are nazis thing is coming from'

experienced players are not the target of their site, they litearlly want to introduce x format to new players and allow them to experience it

but when smartasses want to offclass and ruin it for them they have the right to ban

if you want to play 6v6 with no rules and smash players, just play mm

I think that people think that getting banned for mentioning a website, even in your steam alias, is outrageous. People don't like to be censored, so they rebel against it. Its made even more ironic by tf2center rewarding people for putting #tf2center in their names. A player with #tf2center in their name would never get banned from any other site for that reason.

Of course you could raise the example of advertising a porn website or something but then you'd be completely missing the point.

Edit: ETF2L allow UGC recruitment posts, users with trade.tf in their names aren't banned from backpack.tf and people on pugchamp aren't banned for talking about faceit.com

you are censored on this site, twitch, and just about everywhere else. Freedom of speech is a thing in public.

You don't go around talking about bombs in airports. You don't talk about fires in theaters. You don't go to your friend's house talking about how shit it is and how much better your other friend's house is.

There are places that have unwritten rules that should be common sense.

I'm sure in streams you don't go around saying "hey go check out my stream its a lot better than this guys"

That's because "any other site" would be considered as marketplace, backpack, and outpost.

3 sites that have nothing to do with competitive tf2

tf2stadium is a relatively new (not sure how old it is), so if they start regulating small things like this they will steer people away.

but a trend i've noticed is people who get banned from tf2center typically go right back when they are banned or farm up an account to play more centers.

another solution could just be, actually play stadium instead of making a thread about tf2c complaining about it and effectively giving them free advertisement

wow you found more ways to miss my point than I previously anticipated, also comparing having a website in your steam name to mentioning bombs at an airport is quite something.

z_z im over it

you guys can keep rebelling and getting banned and making these ufkciuBN uselss threads

when the easiest solution is just to play and stop trying to fuckign start a revolution over the past years ever since this site was created

I can't tell if your misspelling of "fucking" was to get past any "censorship" or if you're genuinely upset at this thread.

EDIT: Upon further examination, it appears I was banned because of a post I made on the UGC Forums, so if any of you care about your ability to play TF2Center lobbies, I would be extremely careful about what you post about TF2Center anywhere under the public eye apparently. Stay safe gamers...

Fuckboys love to play devils advocate

masternoob needs to faceit: TF2Center's gonna die soon.

19:43 - spaceship: scrambled what did you do
19:43 - spaceship: they think my alt account is your alt account

we used the same vpn, if its an ip ban cant wait to play tf2c next iseries xD

tf2center, more like tf2cult

one time someone made some joke steam group that mocked warpy and larien and invited a bunch of gold NAHL players and warpy somehow found out about the group's existence despite nobody advertising it and banned most of the people in it

most

TF2 Center lobbies by month January 2015 to January 2017

http://i.imgur.com/he0YA3v.png

Well down from it's peak but still doing 5k lobbies a month, well over 100 a day. MM and FaceIt seem to have taken their share though

TF2Center got flooded with new players when Muselk made his 'introduction to competitive TF2' video a few years ago, and the moderators seemed to stop caring about banning people recklessly, because they would have plenty of players anyway. It sure turned me off of the site.

I say this on every tf2c thread

just fucking be respectful and play the game under a normal alias and you wont get banned. maybe you ahould have gotten a warning or a shorter ban but cmon you were asking for it

tf2center is fine for what it is just dont be a retard and play pugs if you want higher quality games

I don't see how I, the OP, or several other posters were asking for bans when the extent to which the admins will go out and find something they seem to be ban worthy hasn't been clearly defined or ever will be clearly defined. If the admins documented very clearly what they deem bannable in their rules on the front of offensive posts, aliases, or other community interactions unrelated to their website I think people would be outraged to find what you can actually get banned for, but it'd still be miles better than just banning someone because the admin(s) went out looking to be offended.

If a TF2Center admin is patrolling this thread, what you're doing is wrong and very harmful to the growth of the game that I think we both enjoy playing competitively so I would just like to ask that you stop this absolute insanity and mind your own business.

People who say negative things about the site are very likely to get banned.

me and my friend got banned for a week because we shot stickies into the enemy spawn on upward in setup time and killed the attacking team engineer

So you abused a map exploit? I'm not entirely sure what you expected to happen.

LOL
So they banned you because in your own words you "sat in a mumble and flamed highlander players for a lobby" but they're the dicks? You're behavior warranted your banning.

Your behavior is wrong and harmful to the growth of the game. People playing lobbies shouldn't have to suffer through your mumble trolling. If you have an issue with it then don't use the service. But if your idea of protesting and memeing over prevails suspension (not even a ban) is to act like a dick and meme to see how much you can get away with then you are part of the issue.

I was one of the admins for Stadium and I never have had any issues with any of the center staff.
