There is a server running that is not of mine and ouchs server called "our nest of love" and it is a locked server. It even has our fake names in it to. If you are wanting to do that you might as well do it to all players in here b/c we all work together to make these mods happen. So I speak for us all on what you are trying to prove on doing what you are doing. We do not appreciate what you are doing who ever it is and if we found out who it is we will put a stop to you for playing in think tanks period or make it very miserable for you playing in the game. If you are doing this b/c you are not allowed playing in our servers, that is tough, you did something that will not allow you to play in there anymore and we have rules to follow that are not that strict at all. If you could not respect them then you can not play in there. But the final point is that you are being imature by doing that and you need to get over it whatever your problem is.

Well if one were to start TT using the console function (./ThinkTanks.bin -console <---Linux Commnad) and tried to enter said server. They would get this information :

I dont see a problem with this guy creating his own server and locking it... Why do you? Apart from calling two bots after you... Hes not running any mods, all stock...

Hes not copying a server already exsisting so tell me, whats so bad about it?

We're aware of it. There was another thread about the same thing here.

I thought it sounded like someone was mad at you for being banned from your sever. Looks like that's the case. I don't think we can do anything about Server names but will look into it.

Thanks for the IP Nuts.

@Nightmare; I have a problem with this guy using his server as a personal attack on other members. If he has a problem with Lookin and Ouch he should email them and try to resolve it.

@KBC

Yeah I am not to fond of people using servers for personal attacks as well. I edited most of the ip as well. Even though its easy to get I still don't like posting peoples IP. If ouch or Lookin4u wants it just email me. This way you can check against your user log and see who it is.

What would -z- be able to do?

I mean really, he didn't make the game, or the server.

Wait now... Just because a guy has your name in a server, doesnt mean its a personal attack...

Seriously, tell me what havok this guy is causing by putting a server up with non-threatening or insulting words...?

Did you look at the names of the server?

Like "lookin4U love Ouch" with the bot gay+power?
or "Our love nest" with there names as bots?

Thats ok?

Didnt see "gay + power".... But this thread is pointless now... And do you wanna know why? Because the server's gone, and has been for a while.

Yes your right it is pointless. Till he/she starts the server back up. Crap why do I try and help...

^^ Would you be happy about it Nightmare if one of those names were yours?

Nightmare just wants to be loved...

Hey Look, do you suspect of someone?

Probably it is possible to trace his IP numbrer and give him a lesson.

It is not correct to bother people so tolerant and educated like your and Ouch.

KIds, kids....they are very funny

Regards.

Yeh it wouldnt bother me at all lol... Id enjoy the fact that im well known enough to have someone go through all that trouble just for me :)

@nightmare- you know you would be doing the same thing to as I am about the situation if you respected people in think tanks and wanted to make this a good place to come to be with friends and have fun in here and not have people that want to ruin it. And I know you would also get personal about it to if it was done to you. All I want is respect and not done that way. I feel I have respect out of most people b/c they know how I do and act in here.

@player-- thank you for what you had said as well

@ racer-- z has control of think tanks and making decisions too

@ KBC-- Thanks for you help on it to to take care of the situation and also good to see you again. Would look forward to working with you again on some ideas and things if you want....get back with me on it through e-mail

Thanks everyone for concers and feedback on this....lets try to make think tanks a fun place to be with friends and also try to keep it clean if we can too

^ Um no, you dont know me at all, and ^^ was all true.... I wouldnt care at all, and the fact that you made this such a big deal says alot... -z- does not have control of the servers that are up, so once again this was a useless thread that either needs to be locked or die out...

Correct, -z- does not have direct control over the master server list. However, GarageGames may. Not sure how they have it set up but they may have the functionality to bock certain IP's. -z- does seem to know a few people in GG XD. Just because you have no problems with this does not mean that others do not.

I have no probelm with other people having a problem with stuff like this, just bugs me that they create a thread about it, to whine to others... If you want -z- to talk to people at GG then why didnt you just email him?! I mean we cant do anything about it, so why do people post stuff like this... Therfore this thread is useless...

LOL, well your using your logic -z- can't help him. However, people at GG or around here may be able too. So posting was a good idea. What I would suggest would be an open topic thread, not one directed at -z-.

If GG cant even look after the SW servers, then they proberly cant do anything about a mildly attackive server which is now gone...

@NUTSO
Send me the ip addy in a email
Moderators here can match up ips with user accounts
No dastardly deed should go unpunished

@ Roo- Have it home, will send later.

@ Nightmare- this wasn't a shockwave server. It was the naming of a private server and its bots which you see on the master server list. Which is what you see after you hit the online button. The master server shows all the names for all the servers, shockwave and private including the names of the bots. Which what I believe the current game function is "attaching" itself to. I think the last think this community would like to see is a bunch servers innapropriatly named along with the bots. Can you imagine that your trying TT for the first time and you see stuff like that? Albeit, in this case it wasn't that horrible ( I can say that since it wasn't directed at me XD ) but still sends the wrong message about TT and its community.

Omg.... What do you take me for.... Dont you think I know it wasnt a SW server!? I saw the server myself! Read ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ If your going to join into a thread then at least read all the other posts so your up to date with everythings thats going on....

Exsactly.... Thats why he shouldnt have been making a big deal out of it, and nor should you.. Now let this thread die!

Not sure yet, you seem to be having a hard time grasping the concept of individuals using the server names for personal attacks as a bad thing. So I thought I would stop, slow down and try explainig myself better.

Obviously, I am doing a horrible job. Please were would you like me to begin?

By correcting your gramatical mistakes for one lol Now seriously let this thread die!

@ ¿-Ñightmare-?-UF

Those in stone houses..

I must remember your all of 15? Now why do you think you get to make the call what threads should be started and what thread should die? Are you a moderator, are you better than me, are you better than all the rest here in PTT?

^ Im a terrible typer, everyone knows that lol.. You asked where id like you to begin... So I answered... Never said I didnt have any...

I want this thread to die because we went off the subject of it a looooooooooooooong time ago and were are just "debating" about rubbish... Now a better question would be why do you feel you have to have the last word? Prove your not so self centered to need to post last by not posting in this thread agian so it will die :P

*waits for the obvious post

@ Nightmare
ok

Or something like that...*

Umm ya, answer the question.

Instead of posting some snot ass crap remark.

Oh man you are so predictable! Lol! I can read you like a book heh.... Getting personal I see now lol, what happened to the friendly banter?

I Stated this thread was useless, and guess what, it was! Did it do anything? No.. Did -z- ever find out about this thread and do something about it? No.. Did I already give my reasons for why I think this thread should die? Yes....

Now your just looking for an argument... I NEVER said/suggested/implyed that I was better than anyone else in anything!? You went waaaay off topic there...

_{What ever your posting next, im not going to reply to it so this thread will die... And you (being predictable) will reply to this just so you can have the last word... But guess what! By me not posting, im getting what I want by letting this thread die, and theres nothing you can do about it :P}

Lol, dude your the reason this thread went off topic. You don't think that the people reading this don't see that? Yes we both had our fun, I'm an ass because I keep nailing you about this whole topic. You don't think its a big deal that people use the server names for personal attacks as a big deal, I do. Also, as you can see I will be willing to debate that rubbish all night. Yes I am also aware of your using part of my own words out of context as trying to piss me off (the whole "In this case it wasn't that horrible" which was meant as a joke to lighten the mood). Then the whole "let it die" thing, like that wasn't an attempt to get under my skin. Yes you are to smart for me, you little button pusher you. Yes I could have stopped a long time ago, but I wanted to see something first, thanks.
