Halo list of abuses:
#1 - 1 week ban for "advertising".
I will admit that I harassed the Mods a little, so I sort of deserved this. HOWEVER, they didn't even tell Agurus, the Owner, what happened.
That's because they specifically say in their Mod Protocol (Quote):
Advertising: this is something to be cracked down on.
#2 - 10,000 minute Zip (Do the math, roughly one week)
Ahem.. anyone say "No reason"?
I was never given any reason for this, other than "You're staff at War Era" (Halo's rival zone).
Let me compare this to a 3 day Zip for excessive spamming, swearing, and, I believe, minor slurs.
#3 -
Since then I have been continually zipped for no reason, never given a reason by Mods, and also told "You're staff at War Era".
I've been zipped straight through for 2 days now, and I currently have 1200-1400 minutes (Eh, I keep forgetting.) until I can talk again.
I'm just waiting...
Oh, yes, since I'm too lazy to go back and backspace that:
I was zipped for 1440 a few days ago, someone lifted my Zip, I was zipped yesterday afternoon, then this afternoon, right as my Zip ended.. SURPRISE, someone showed up, Zipped me, and was gone.

Yeah, it has been shut down for hacking up multiple Continuum clients on one PC just to get their pop up to about 30. The sysop and the owner did this which is a disgrace.  |

I don't think it was going that well. That zone was soon to go down someday...  |

Yup, with strikingly similar layout to Metal Gear's tiles and map layout.  |

I think they put up strict rules (Agurus and staff) to cut down on people who come in and constantly abuse. I guess Agurus and some staff can be a bit ban happy, but I guess he must have a reason. Otherwise, if he doesn't, this is definatly abusing.

Technically, we had about 25 pop... Beef only set up 4 people.
.........................................................................................
And no, they don't have a reason.
Although Muskrat_24 has asked me to add this note:
Agurus was apparently behind all this, although I don't remember if I mentioned that DC+ accused me of mass advertising, just to bring in fresh abuse?
Heh, anyway, it was just the big guys that did this.
No offense to the people that I know will read this follow-up post, but they don't teach new staff anything anyway.
I learned just about every command, up to SysOp, and how to make setts, do levels, etc., at War Era in DEV STATE in 3 days... compare that to Halo where they teach you to host.
(Musk, I promised a good follow up post - this is good)
Indeed, when I was fired, the old Staff Coord, WaRCC told me I didn't know anything. Why? (Because you can't host)

Heh, Halo is better than most of the other fuckin zones that are on subspace, though newbs here are jelous b/c they cant run a zone. And FMB you should ought think why you were banned, one we wont tell give you a documentery of your ban, and we have enuf proof in which we dont to hear your bullshit.
Also War era just got their ways with advertisments and threats, and we got a guy complainin you advertised, well i gues this was all the past ne ways...
And night were did you comin lol?
wow lp with me for once lol
cypher come to Halo lol |

I'm not jealous. I get a little angry when I see Halo with material stolen from zones I host. Anger eventually boils down to bias. _________________ This help is informational only.
