Title: Respect
Post by: Renan on December 18, 2011, 07:06:40 pm
Hi Guys,

Hope you are all well.

Today i would like to speak about respect.

To begin with, lets talk about fun. Ambrosia is fun, our servers are fun. There are two main reasons to why we join a CS server, in this case, Ambrosia. One, for the wish to play Counter Strike and the other, for the wish to have fun, with the players.

Most of the ambrosia's members due to know each other and therefore do have quite a fun time over our servers. Which is BRILLANT. That is for sure one thing we ALL will like you ALL to have always.

However, having fun with players, is only fun when you are both laughing and having fun of it.

For instance, i come into to a server and:

Quote
Renan: Hi Deniz, you dick sucker.
Deniz: Hi Renan, you motherfucker.
Renan: hahaha.
Deniz: hahaha.

Lovely, that is both of us having fun. However, not all players are the same, and therefore that is why i am posting this thread. Having fun with players is acceptable, Having fun disrespecting another player, is bullying. That is unacceptable and therefore will be punishment for it.

For example:

Quote
Renan: Hi Deniz, you dick sucker.
Deniz: I did not like what you said, that was disrespectful.
Renan: Oh shut up you motherfucker.

Under the above scenario, Renan should be punished for disrespecting another player, as Deniz did not have the same fun i was having, and so this is bullying. Which is unacceptable.

Please remember, that we will always want you to have fun, however do have fun with respect. Otherwise it is considered to be bullying, AND WE ARE AGAINST IT and so you shall be punished for it.

Admins: If you see lack of respect going on the server, and one of both sides do feel damaged/bullied by the other person, you are to punish the bully.
Players: If you feel you are being bullied, do report to the admin online, if the admin do not take any actions, feel free to report on our forums and we'll take care of.

Hope you all understand the message.

Thank you, Renan.

I think we need to pay special attention to the ones that provoke in the 1st place. Some people do this to get a reaction..and then complain...

Its all about reporting smitten.

Agree with Smit. Renan you can not report when there is nothing there, meaning no flame, but some people do not need to flame to drive you nuts and provoke you, but I definitely agree with Renan about the respect, most important thing is to remember to respect ourselves and don't stoop down lower levels. This is gaming servers and we all know, that we have lots of teenagers playing and tempers are hot, quick to anger, but following basic respect rules is not as hard. Renan made a good example, when someone does not find it funny just stop.
I know at least 2 people who will laugh at me talking about respect again, but I really believe it is one of the most important keys to any relationship.

I agree with Smit, this is not about reporting, everyone could go everyday and report every single person and then sadly there would be a lot of bans. Game is for fun and if someone is too sensitive I am sorry, but they shouldn't be playing the mod then! I mostly agree with you Renan about disrespecting, insulting or being racist, it should not occur, but it happens and mostly it happens because of being provoked. I know a lot of good guys who never did swore or being insulting, but some people got their ways.

I respect everyone equally I might have found some things funny which may not be funny to others, but this is a game community there will always be someone left out, besides it happens a lot in life and no one should be blamed. Different people different ways of thinking.
Just saw Cerseis reply.
As Cersei said, Respect is most important key for any good relationship, but if someone has not respected me I still tend to keep it polite as respecting them even if they don't respect me. It also goes to a very thin line and at some point it will have to stop.

My suspension was yesterday for an event which occurred a day before yesterday. If it really was so offensive the report would of have came in the same day or wouldn't it? I could of explained what happened, but as it seems you don't deal with both sides, you just listen to one side of the story. Fair enough, what does it say about the mentality of the community?
Kind regards,
sami

I agree that Respect is key!

It doesnt take a genius to work out that the majority of our servers have alot of respect and well maintained by the admins, but this is also contributed by the average age of players playing on those servers. Jailbreak is completely different and lacks alot of respect to the point where alot of players and even admins think its acceptable for flaming to occur just because of your gender. Im quite convinced that if the same words were said to a admin ingame they would be punished immediately so why is this different for the females? Its unfair on the players to be singled our for there gender and i would expect all admins to take note and action on any flaming thats has occured.

Some wise* man said someday:

You need to give respect, before you can earn it.
Respect comes by feet and leaves by horse.


* The wise man was called Arne btw.

Another wise man said,

Two wrongs does not make a right.
Replying to a "wrong" using a "wrong" will only get you "wrong" as well as the "wrong" person.

* That wise man was Renan btw.

Well if it has been explained then that's fine but in future try to keep something like this in the room and not widely viewable. It makes our jobs as owners easier if you get me ;)

Tbh i dont really remember it, cause i've seen tons of these things past days. Though i've requested everyone to change it and so far everyone did it. If they hadn't change it, then i would ban them.

i understand it completly ezza, its just that i hate getting reported while i have tons of screenshots from the past 8 months on my external harddrive of people flaming in servers which i never reported ROFL.

i personally hate people acting behind ur back while they arent 100% clean either.

anyway i think this should be forgotten since its nearly 3 days ago and i wasnt the only one trolling arne in that channel at that moment :)

Don't worry about it Deniz! Us high staff are not stupid, we let some things go if we know the person well enough like you. It might be un-intentional so we don't punish them unless you consistently break the same rules. Unfortunately no matter how much you punish some people they seem to rise above the law.

Saying things to your friends is fine in my book, when it gets reported by the victim is when we act.

Why i cant quote?

Anyway; on your reply:

I disagree with it. I might say shark you are a fucking cunt with ten guys around us. They are all fine with it and they are all laughing. Next day someone says the same and someone will report him. He will blame me, cause he thought that it was allowed when i said it to shark.

Like i said; saying things about someone else is fine, as long as it is in a private chat. Keep it clean in general chats.
