Nailer spotted this on NovaWorld: www.novaworld.com/NWCommunities/topic.aspx?topic_ID=4856363736&pageNumber=1This little twerp RedPiranha said: "Have you been to the 7.62 server lately? Just mention you dont like the map and you can be threatened and cursed at. Now I like to talk smack once in a while all in good fun, but just because you pay for a server doesnt mean you have to degrade people. This particular sever even has a map in rotation called NO Bulls#*t, which can be clearly seen on the server list. Immature action like this is sort of like a blackeye on the whole bhd series which just gives ammo to people who want to ban or censor online games such as this. All it would take is to hit J and take a screenshot and all the nastyness could be sent to some lawmaker who has nothing better to do than see your fun end! Another thing being banned or kicked for winning too much or having a different opinion has got to stop! Please tell this and other servers to clean up their act. "

Lots of people stuck up for us, which really gives you a boost if you read it. Nailer said:
"I'll be telling the rest of the crew about this thread right away. Sorry if anyone was sensitive and got their feelings hurt, but not really. We would never tollerate outright abuse of someone (who didn't richly deserve it) We would like to thank all of you who stood up for us, it's nice to see we have a good rep with so many of you! We are actually pretty tollerant of people in the server, and if they act out of line, they usually get a warning before we land on them with boots first for a second offense. "

I said: "Well, I’m glad Nailer saw this and let me know about it.
First, a sincere “thank you” to the people that spoke up for us. We have been around as a squad since the Land Warrior days and have run a server since BHD.
Second, if RedPiranha or anyone else has a problem with the way anyone runs a server, then the adult, mature, and responsible way to handle it is to first contact the people who run the server, NOT to post a complaint in a public forum. If you don’t get satisfaction that way, then you go public. I therefore have to wonder whether this is a case of immaturity or underhandedness on RedPiranha’s part.
No one is punted for winning on our server. They may very well be punted for whining. There is a big difference.
As far as “Just mention you dont like the map and you can be threatened”, I have to laugh. Threatened? How? “I’m gonna come to your house and beat you up?” Good trick, not knowing a few little details like who you are and where you live. How could you possibly feel threatened?
And specifically how did you “mention” that you didn’t like the map? Was it something like “I don’t really like this map”? Or more something like “THIS MAP SUX AND YOU SUX”? Because we tend to give as good as we get. You come on with something like “THIS MAP SUX” and you may very well find that we suggest that YOU suck and advise you that you can leave if you don’t like the maps. It’s pretty much a shame that we would have to point that out to you . . . I mean, we aren’t holding a gun to your head and making you play on our server. You do have the option to go elsewhere. Please use it."

Saggin reminded me about what y'all had said about RedPiranha, so my next post: "OK, I wasn't on the server when RedPiranha had his little problem, but I have spoken with some of our guys who were, and here is what they said:
"Yes, I remember Red Piranah and very well and yes he did say something on the lines of "this map sux and all of your maps do". Then after we put up with it for 30 minutes and the people on his own team started asking us to punt him we did. Well, we kinda banned him because it wasn't the first time we had problems with him whining." I remember them telling me about this, now, and I want to emphasize that RedPiranha complained *so much* that the people on his own side were telling the 7.62 guys to punt him. That ought to tell you something. So now that I have all of the facts - RedPiranha, you are obviously a whiney little crybaby who thinks that the world revolves around you. It doesn't. We pay good money for a rental server so that we can have some fun after a hard day at work, and we most definitely DO NOT need some little piece of trash like you coming in and b**ching that we aren't running our server specifically to suit you. I wouldn't have put up with your cheap sh*t for anywhere near 30 minutes, like the other guys did. I'd have punted you on the 2nd or 3rd whine. If you don't like a server, any server, then LEAVE, you flaming moron! Whining about the maps or lag or whatever will not change the situation. Once again, the world does not wait to serve your every need, and if you think it does, then your parents failed miserably at the task of raising you. If anyone needs to "clean up their act", then it is most definitely you. You have an incredibly long way to go to meet even a minimum standard of maturity. Right now, you're about at the level of a 5-year old. At this point, you owe the 7.62 squad in particular and the BHD/JOTR/JOE community in general a sincere apology. I don't expect we'll get it, based on your previous selfish and immature actions. But at any rate, rest assured that you are banned for life from our server. And if that is a "threat", you little wimp, then maybe you'd better go have your Mommy fix you some milk and cookies and get your Scooby-Doo pajamas all ready for you, so she can read you a bedtime story."

Heh, heh, heh.....that was fun, huh? I still think we should un-ban him, invite him back in, and then punt and re-ban him.
