Okay, I was on a server, on Ice Fields, and I was asking if anyone was on Bungie. No one would answer, and I kept asking. And the admin said "maybe i should just ban u". So I tell him "You've got no reason to!", and he replies "watch", and the next thing I know:

The server operator has banned you from their server.

Just for asking if they were on Bungie!

How's that for a load of bullcrap?

And it's your connection that's slower than turtle sex.

In........................................................Out .

Yeah, not many know how to ban that well. Even I have trouble remembering it. But anyway, you must know, there are -blam!-s all over Halo PC.

[being a nooblet] Ooh! Ooh! I know how to ban!
`sv_ban 1 *enter*
`sv_ban 2 *enter*
`sv_ban 3 *enter*
etc etc... [/being a nooblet]

Two things:
1) What is the console command for bringing up the player list? I know you can use Xfire, but alt-tabbing is annoying...
2) How do you use the various 'special' characters in your name? Like the funny AE thingy.

^^

1. You bring up the console by pressing Shift and ~ at the same time, and type sv_players

2. Press the alt key and any of the numbers on the number pad, which is located on the right side of the keyboard.

Depends on how many times you asked. If someone comes in to my server and asks a question no-biggie. If they ask more then five times in a couple minutes it gets annoying. I will then warn the person. Repetitive text messages get under my skin probably more then other people.

Oh too true Igg. I had this one guy on the TUI server yesterday, said "-blam!-" every time he died, I told him multiple times to cut it out. But I guess some people have selective reading skills when it comes to moderator requests. So he went byebye.

I asked about once every five minutes, so it couldn't have been that bad of a annoyance.

I've been around these parts for almost eight years now...wow! Maybe I should be concerned about that...

I hate that people can ban so irresponsibly...luckily, most server operators are mature enough to know what's a bannable offence and what's not.

Once upon a time, there was a server.
On this server was a perculiar individual.
This individual used a perculiar program.
The individual's name was 'SPAM BOT!!!!1'.
Try and guess what the program was.

That's nothing

One time, I was playing a CTF game where the administrator was using cheats and killing everyone We were in Blood Gulch and he was up on the high cliffs....
He was red, and everyone else was blue. i came up with a plan to get him, which involved me and two other people driving Warthogs with gunners and passengers to the bottom of his cliff to distract him while two other people went through the modded portal to get him in the back.

but some guy got in my hog....Push erupted into a massive shove, i shot the hog-stealer ONCE with my pistol, he got mad, ran me over, started insulting my mother......So i killed him, , and the daggomn high-cliff cheat sniping prick-tard banned me.

I talked to him later on Xfire and he said it was because i killed a team-mate....

Well, yeah, if you were in the army, fighting an invisiblr enemy, and the guy who's supposed to be your friend (or at least acquaintance) stole your hummer and began insulting your mother, wouldn't your fire an RPG at him? Court Marshall (or is it Martial?) may follow, but a BAN?

Actually, you can't boot yourself from the game. That would create a paradox in the time-space continuum that would disrupt the timeline and open up a wormhole about the size of Texas that would swallow all the matter in the universe until finally it consumed itself and negate all existence.

What Kim said, and the admin is listed as player 0.
And you can ban player 0 (even yourself) on dedicated servers.
