Back on the old server I ran before I become involved with the Minecraftland one here, there was a constant group of people who were just generally annoying and looking for trouble, but they usually stayed within the boundaries of the rules as to not get banned.
Fine.
But now they're coming to the new server with the intent of pissing me off. I've started banning a few of them after warning, then more came and they're getting banned on first offense (when doing the same thing their predecessors were doing).
Practical Problems and Madame got involved, deciding to be funny about it. They got to see why people were getting banned, and get a taste of it themselves.
It's not funny. I suppose they understand that now.
Anyway, so what did they do? When I logged on, Boarder changed his name to Kris14, and Silver Bullet changed his name to Khris15. I ask them not to do that and Boarder goes on about how he's 14 and his name is Kris.
Fine. It's not harming anyone, but I'm not amused. It's clearly mocking my name, borderline impersonation, disrespectful, whatever. They're not harming anyone.
Boarder (Kris14) kills me once amidst a large battle and clusterfuck of players. Spams the chat annoyingly, exclaiming how he had killed me. Told him he's not welcome here if he's simply here to be obnoxious. The other one falsely corrects my grammar (I typed "your" and he corrected it to "you'r"). I banned them both for a week.
I have a history with Boarder on the old server, but didn't let the ban carry over and gave him a clean slate--I told him this previously. Silver Bullet I don't have much recollection of. Either way, they're both members of {BL!} like I said. Never had fun with them around.
So shortly after another member, {BL!} Canadian Nightmare, joins and changes his name to "kris96". Banned him indefinitely. Went back and changed the other two to permanent. Obviously, {BL!} likes to work together and be annoying.
Again, a few minutes later, a classic micspammer from the old server (who I already banned for a week once here for micspamming) joined and began micspamming. Banned him permanently too. Probably coordinated, but maybe just coincidental timing.
I'd get the group for {BL!} but SteamCommunity is down. At least one other person has vocalized his dislike for the entire group. Not gonna throw names, but he's not on the admin team.
I'm considering issuing a ban of {BL!} members on sight. Unsure if this is going too far, or if you guys would be behind it.
Thoughts welcome: disagreement, agreement, whatever. I just want some input and thoughts. I won't issue such a broad ban without the support of the team.
Fine.
