TF2Games? IGL?

TF2Center had several admins taking care of the bans, and it all depended on who was available. Over time MNC, Void, RTC and I have done it, and since Fairy came to position she did the bulk load of it. I went on to do the sensitive bans (cheating) since I have played at least a season in competitive leagues. I hope that Terry took over since I left.

All bans need a ban thread to be linked to it, but somehow masternoob and tereza could circumvent that constraint, and ended up having hundreds of bans (ranging from chat to login bans) without any evidence linked back. Whereas all other admins and moderators were only inching at the double digits. So I think that alleviated the mods of their workload a bit.

I can't visit the forums (banned there too), but I got linked a screenshot showing a comment made by RTC was placed on it. Not sure why it's up there or who posted it, but from what I read it wasn't too flattering for TF2C

haha oh wow.

we have figured out who did the 500 euro donation and hopefully give him a shoutout (if permitted) during the showmatch tonight.

I just logged in on indiegogo and I don't recognize the email used for the donations. I think it's someone else. I'll keep the discussion about it open and ask the staff / community what we should do with it, but I feel like it should be returned

Hi Haccusators.

You may or may not have heard the news, but I've stepped down as admin at TF2Center. Thus I will not be wrapping up the open reports and ongoing investigations, I hope someone else will pick up where I've left at center.

Just wanted to let you guys know that a lot of you have helped tremendously. Special thanks to dollar, zombie, miggy deetr and last but not least terry.

Hi, I've been working at TF2Center since last year march. I joined the team to help the growth of competitive TF2. And I would like to shine some light on the entire issue.

Sadly, as you can see with prior and recent issues, TF2Center has had a huge problem with moderation and public opinion.
It started since launch, when players expressed a fair bit of criticism against the two developers (who are the project leaders of the site). This set course for the whole ordeal we see center in right now.

instead of listening to the community, it became a game of trying to fish out the legit looking criticism and the easy-to-fix solutions. The effort spent on the site diminished, but flared up if there was a good idea that was low level to implement.

In December 2014 a few players from the EU HL community banded together to see if we could organise a LAN. That team is Foungi, Stinson, Schalla, Hartz and me. We looked around for sponsors and because I have a connection with center, and Masternoob was convinced that LAN was a good idea (after visiting i52), a plan was set up to sponsor the LAN prize pool for 2000 euros.

I mean, how unclear can it be? the exact words he posted himself on the staff forum were:

(this is the end part of his own post).

Cut to a few weeks ago. I have been invited to Masternoobs house, and it was great! He and his wife showed a lot of hospitality and I had a wonderful time discussing several things. One of the things I've shown was how we set up a fund raiser to cut the costs for the players and staff (hosting and attending LAN can be pretty expensive). He then said he'd look into funding a part of the fundraiser. At no point I had any idea he'd draw back from the original prize pool funding.

Last TF2Center staff meeting we'd discuss a few things, and I got a PM from foungi (deutschLAN host), and asked me to relay details about RTC's removal from Center. Masternoob told Foungi that he didn't want RTC to attend the LAN.
So I confronted him and he said he was in the position to demand that since he's the title sponsor, if we wanted the 500 euros we (LAN organisation) better do that.

After asking him if he misspoke about 500 euros, since 2000 was agreed, he said he had changed it with foungi and it was a problem with internal communication.

So I'd ask foungi:

Spoke to the other members of LAN staff, nobody has ever heard of anything less than 2k.

I've watched this problem for a week in the hope TF2center can resolve it, but we got into contact with TF2Pickup and we'd rather cut ties with Center, and go into partnership with a site that actually cares for it's community. At this point it's not about the money anymore, it's about the principle.

One part of me is happy that today I'm leaving behind a site with the head of it banning players for no reason at all, harassing staff and former staff members and hurting the competitive community.
I'll be sending my resignation on the TF2C staff forums in a bit.

Sorry for not being able to steer the site in the right direction, I tried but obviously have failed.

I'm glad they're making the other miniguns an option now.

I was trying out editing for a bit at the beginning of this year
