Admins Running Clans in Official Servers and Supporting VAC Banned Cheaters
12 replies, posted
I just got banned from Official Belgium Server just because I wrote 3 sentences nicely "[B]about a clan having all time, well-known cheater as a member[/B]". I have been told that the clan [PRR] is run by an admin Ami or something.
So 30 mins back as I was discussing this with a friend in chat, I suddenly got disconnected and now whenever I try to join server it says "ConnectionBanned" in console.
Did I use abusive language: NO
Did I disrespect someone: NO
I was simply going to discuss (which I didnt even write anything about) Admins on official servers shouldn't be allowed to have their own clans. I am writing this all here to inform the community whats happening in official servers. I didnt even know this admin, all I knew was a guy (I saw, over 6 times flying in the air and aimbotting more than 7 people in a row several times) with a clan tag today. He is supposed to be banned, yet he becomes a member of a clan managed by an admin? And when we discuss this matter we are banned? I can easily switch to some other server but then again, I 'd like facepunch to explain what are the management's thoughts about this situation? Is there any department keeping an eye on admins in official servers or you are all so busy counting money and developing a game that you forgot to make one?

Thats not exactly proof considering you could have just gotten banned on a community server then switched to the official tab. But if it is true then you were hacking, and you got caught and banned so either leave or buy another copy of the game, simple as that.
Dude not everyone creating a thread in these forums is a hacker. Read my post carefully. The post is about an admin misusing their powers. This isnt about my ban, I already included, I can switch to another server, but my questions are >> should admins be allowed to run their own clans in an official server? Is their an authority checking these admins? If a player is banned, what is the platform, where he should go check the proof against him? This isnt a VAC ban. This is my steam ID banned from a single official server, so stop pasting the same sentence, where you are pushing people to buy the game again.

Can you prove that server is, in fact, an official server and hasn't exploited the listing system to make itself appear as an official server?
Official servers run by Facepunch are unmonitored, so what you're describing would not happen on dev-run servers. It's a server that doesn't belong on that tab.
So you got banned by a shitty admin off of one server. Move on.
You can browse the Belgium server in Official servers list and match the ip in my screenshot, I can upload a video proof later today.
I play on that server. Its swarming with hackers which wouldnt happen if it has admins ...
you must have personally pissed off garry or one of the devs, or otherwise a hacker breached their system and banned you or snuck their ip into the official tab-- there are no admins on official servers

only other thing I could think is that some hacker used your ip to DDOS the server which then protected itself by banning you..

I once joined UK1 official server for the lolz so I can see how long I can survive without getting aimbotted,however there was this guy that had blue text whenever he wrote something.Everyone was saying that he was admin but I didn't believe it. Anyone else saw that person perhaps?

you dont need to be an admin to use colors in text. I saw some thread about how to do it, but I would be careful about doing it as some people could think you were a hacker.
Well, you're not actually banned considering there are no actual admins on the official ones to ban you. Also, notice how it says "ConnectionBanned" and not "Facepunch_*action*_*system*"
I'd recommend calling your ISP and have them assing a new lease.

ConnectionBanned is the per-server ban message, you fool. The "official" Belgium server [B]isn't[/B] official, and whoever is admin on that one server-banned the OP by adding his Steam ID to the server's ban list.
Nobody is talking about VAC bans, which are facepunch_connector_vac_ban messages.
