Tyrant122312,
Well I guess I should chime in on this subject, given that I am a ES Clan Member and I am the operator of the server you speak of. (AKA the "cheater")
So let me try to make this simple for you.
#1 The CTF Classic variant is an official locked variant. You can tell this by the lock symbol beside the variant. Therefore, it was designed by Bungie and approved by Bungie. You know those guys who made the game and run this site. Thats all I'll say on that matter. It's pretty simple to me.
#2 You were not baned from the server. Right? You say this yourself, so i guess not. So, if one did want to cheat and had the ability to kick on command. (meaning console access) Then why not just ban you. Then they wouldn't have to deal with you at all. I'll tell you why. Because you were not cheating by garding the flag. You were simply being a n00b who would not face a single person on the field. It had nothing to do with teamwork you just couldn't kill anyone any other way. But, thats beside the point. The point is you were kicked (1 time) because you started a whole debate on the servers text chat interface to talk about the fact that you were camping the flag. This debate was with DODO who was told to shut up about it and play the game. Which he did. You however, did not. (Even after repeated requests to stop spaming the server with text) Furthermore, your other kicks were by your own players for TKing them in your base. This is what happens in a small base when you use nothing but Brute Shots and Rocket Launchers. You kill your own team mates more times than I could count. Particularly when we were atacking. You shot everything that moved, blues, reds pretty much anything that entered your base. So, your own team kicked you, several times as I recall. The other players that were booted were not booted at all. Several people from both teams started leaving because the game was at 3 hours+. This was mainly do to the fact that no one could even get to blue base (we DID NOT have a camper on our flag) and you were holding the red base in your own n00b way.
#3 Finaly, I would like to personaly invite any bungie official reading this to come play on our server.(ES Clan Server) In order to inspect it for any form of cheating. Also anyone else reading this I invite you to try our server and see for yourself. If you happen to see myself (Sypher117) or Kenshin1283 while you are there. Feal free to ask to be tested in order to join our clan. We are always looking for a few good Spartans.
Thank You,

First off, I wasn't being kicked by members of my own team. I was being booted sporatically before our base came under attack from your team. Second, flag guarding is a legit position in CTF as stated HERE. Chosing to not have someone guard your flag was your own decision, and if that's how your team plays, then fine. But kicking people from the server simply because they are presenting a challeng to you? Well that's wrong. It may be your server, but be prepared to get flamed. Again, there's a defined difference between flag guarding and camping, where as flag guarding gives the individual no strategic advantage at all. No additional kills. No additional scores. It's the least sought position on the field which is exactly why I assume it. CTF is a TEAM game and should be played as such. I've been flag guarding since Halo PC came out back in late 2003, and your server has been the first and only time where it has been an issue. And lastly, please don't use my thread to try and recruit people into your clan. Bungie has set their own forums for that specific purpose.
