[1995CobraR]

[word.]

So they wanted to ban you? Were you much faster than everyone else or something? ;)

[danowat]

What do I think?, meh, it's a demo server...........

[1995CobraR]

nonono.... i was witnessing them trying to ban a No-named person just because they had no name.... I think its kinda wrong!

[1995CobraR]

Why do you care what goes on in a demo server? It's their problem, not yours/ours.

[Bean0]

I thought it was common to boot people using the default (or no) player name, even going back to the pre-source Counterstrike days this would happen.

In S2 proper all players are ID-able by their license name, so you'd never see it happening.

nonono.... i was witnessing them trying to ban a No-named person just because they had no name.... I think its kinda wrong!Wrong maybe, but understandable. Often, unnamed players on demo servers are wreckers or utter noobs.

OFTEN?
Nah, ALL unnamed player are utter noobs!
I have a lot experience on some demo servers and thats why i can say that.
Pobably play all unnamed's the first time LFS, thats why they are absolutely noobish...

[obsolum]

Is that really a reason to ban them, though? Just because it's their first time they play the game and haven't entered a proper name yet? :shrug:

[maczo]

ALL unnamed player are utter noobs!
I wish I was still fast with XRG at Blackwood. It'd be fun to go to a demo server as Unnamed then :D

[zeugnimod]

It IS fun. :x :D

[Gil07]

That's because you're an utter noob, zeug :D

[zeugnimod]

Yes, even the wreckers on demo servers finish before me. :(

[theirishnoob]

i like demo servers... nothing like being the kids :)

thought they think its fun to ban you upon joining the game :smileypul

[[d9]]

every server owner can decide about of its guests. i automatically ban by hand nazi nicks for example...
unnameds are mostly hardcore beginners, who can not even read and/or understand server requirements, not welcome, so on my server they are kicked every 30s or with "no name no game", "kicking time" or "welcome" :) messages. (for jokers with unnamed nick or other creative people is there still possibility to use invisible characters etc. protection...)

Do you have anybody in your server?

Matt

[zeugnimod]

Do you have anybody in your server?

I assume, there are 2 or 3 people on the demo who dont have either no nick or a racist nick. :really:

[dmwright]

I'd rather have none. But if there slow with no names I don't mind.

Edit :Oh and the fast ones :)

hehe, sometimes ;)
unnameds and noobs are still breeding and have dynamic ip adresses :)

seriously... situation in demo is worse than ... sometimes... i should think so.
seriously2... but racing with demo noobs gives me sometimes occasionally new dimension of fun - jink racing, hard-working with mirrors etc. :)

uh ... no
Blaster(6) killed Blaster(12) was more than common in the olden days

No name, no game would be my comment for this thread.

btw, [d9] runs the best demo server. Alot of licenced racers go there for a close XRT@BL1 racing. Still not sure if he want's to tell us something with the server name "pink", but emmm...yeah. :razz:

what's the name of that server, if you don't mind sharing?


also, I was on a demo server (duh!) yesterday and an unnamed user got banned pretty much right after joining. I should say that in my experience, almost all unnamed racers were either crashers or really slow drivers with no idea about blue flags...which often makes them crashers anyway. I should also say that the server that I was on had a really nice skilled crowd at that time and the last thing we wanted is somebody wrecking the race.

[mrodgers]

Ah yes, ban straight away! Guilty until proven innocent where there is no way to prove innocent once ban stricken.

Sure, crashers use "unnamed", but you think that maybe, just maybe, that "unnamed" is just a first time user and didn't put a name in yet? Maybe, just maybe, that new user who is "really slow drivers with no idea about blue flags..." just might have the slight mental ability to listen and learn from someone helping them out online so that they are not slow and understand the blue flag? Or maybe, just maybe that "unnamed" is only new to LFS, but has been sim racing for years and years with other sims? Quite possibly, that "unnamed" will come on the server and own everyone there?

Immediate bans upon someone entering a server for anything is ludicrous.

[Stone in Focus]

its not hard to give yourself a name, if you like the game, the least yo could do is make yourself identifiable to other players.

[Blas89]

I'll make an experiment... I'm going to get into servers with no name and see how fast they ban me. :D

[callmebob]

the reason demo servers ban unnamed people is because they are typically the crashers.
i usually give them a chance then if they dont reply at all, i kick

[Alles]

what else can you expect on demo servers....

[eimer_]

Why do you want unnameds on the server when there´s a 95%chance that they ruin the race in turn one? what is so mad about forcing them to join a server where people are not that busy racing? Are unnameds unable to play LFS just because they´re banned for 12hours from a few servers where people managed to take ... preventive action (hope you can say so in english)? There are still lots of other servers, so why should they quit playing LFS in general.. just because they can´t join 1, 2 or maybe just a few more other servers for the next 12 hours? :shrug:

Ok, they might have downloaded LFS 10 minutes ago, and don´t even know that T opens the chat window. but hey, one day they WILL have to chat to others, either on forum or ingame. and if hey DONT want to deal with what´s going on around them like in the chat or on track they could as well have a look at the game in single player mode. My suggestion: ReadTheF***ingManual

P.S. I know i was banned during my first days in LFS as well, but i´m still alive, and i don´t even remember any more what i´ve done - maybe i didnt even realise that i was banned :smileypul
