[QUOTE=Suttles;23143197]Actually I think the guy might be lying about him having kids. Not trying to be offensive, but he has pedobear hats on his server, and he has kids. He might have been making a lie so hezzy would get all sad, then pay him the money.[/QUOTE]
Don't be stupid.
There's a difference between an internet joke that a kid may not understand and dicks everywhere on his board, steamprofile and steam group profile.
You banned EliteGuy, made me rage.
Just didn't post it in fear of a ban.
To be sincere it makes me proud to have such competent moderators in the forum.
Hezzy you honor us, thank you.
I want neckbeard, eliteguy, theguydude, and dr. pepper back.
That ^
2 are my friends, and they are good posters.(awesome too)
The other 2 are just awesome.
So what are you gonna do hezzy?
Vault boi, wootman, and Dlaor. too.

All they did was some lame troll spam and the guy's tiny server couldn't handle them all being there. They didn't want the site to go down.
You know what? Unban everyone. But if they do something stupid make it a perma.
He's an unemployed father of five and he's spending his money on hosting servers for a game? :bravo:

My thoughts exactly. I don't know why you would be doing that if you don't even have enough money for your kids
I understand why he'd be hosting the server, what I don't understand is how he wasn't prepared for going over bandwidth.
He didn't deserve the raid but all the deception afterwards just makes him look like a gigantic dick.
Maybe he said he had five children for sympathy.
I stand by my opinion that neckbeard should be unbanned. He gave logical arguments and merely gave them a tongue lashing to get to the bottom of things.

I admit that I cringed when he spoke of Facepunch having to pay him and then asking Garry to when facepunch couldn't. It seemed as if he was just trying to leech with no real credible sources of his debt. Pestering Garry over a matter from his forums is not smart at all. When he also called your PM/"excuse" shitty I felt he was being a dick over it.

I call shenanigans
We have no real credible sources of his debt. Could you send a reply if he really is serious about having Garry send him some financial help?
Free Pedobear hat!!!
Yeah I doubt he has 5 kids. That's a upright lie.
Also Neckbeard was innocent, he went over as a rep. it seemed and wasn't nasty in any way. Fucking idiots followed and did some of the worst trolling I've ever seen on the internet.
Ever.

Well to be fair it isn't quite Gestapo's decision. We have to rely on Xomp's decision on whether or not he was innocent. He seems like a jerk if he really called neckbeard a troll for providing valid arguments on the matter.
We should have done the mature thing and ignore the ban or ban them on our servers but considering this is Facepunch, maturity is non existent. Also the server owner is either lying about being 32 with 5 children and unemployed, or he is lying partially about it.

There are two sides to the argument. It is our fault for raiding his servers and causing him a a debt but we have no proof at the moment. It is also his fault for deciding to ban a whole group of players (some thousands) just because a few decided to troll his servers. The owner also seems to act like a douche on the matter demanding payment with no proof at all and his story about unemployment and 5 children seems strange. I blame the idiots on the forum who really raided (not neckbeard) and not acting like mature people and giving them a good reason to unblock. They most likely unblocked us in fear of this happening again.
From reading those PM's and posts, that guy sounds like a major tool.
Yeah, wasn't a good idea to block the entire FP group, but that's nothing compared to what they did to his servers and site.
Jeah, father of five on a wellfare check. You'd think his priorities would lie elsewhere rather than running some TF2 servers.
Well atleast maybe he got a laugh out of the fact that the person that he need to contact to find and ban a bunch of people is called Mr Gestapo

If I was a bull I would be pissed at all that red.
I don't think you guys get how unemployment works if you expect him to spend every waking hour on a job hunt.
[quote]A little shitty to be honest considering how much money flows through that website compared to us (unless you want to include the $32 we made in donations due to the earbud giveaway)[/quote]

[QUOTE=usaokay;23144221]I don't think YOU get how money works if you expect him to spend most of his on a video game server.[/QUOTE]
He could easily spend MOST of his time on a job hunt and still have time to run a server.
