First off I must apologize Nightfang. We kind of hi-jacked your thread.
@pwnage:: Those rules were written by Zarj who I don't take seriously. Although they were compiled by Bukz who I do. Doesn't matter. My post was on topic. Note the little P.S. at the bottom? I've been posting here when you were in diapers, just a little cuddly wuddly smoochums in hanze. If you wanna step me you're going to have a lot of ground to make up. I suggest starting with Pampers, then moving up to big boy undies. Just sayin.
You're setting the standard aye? That's good to know. I guess we'll have many up and comers blacklisting clans left and right with absolutely ZERO evidence (note oNe) while others get served the Banhammer of Grey for misuse of a tag (legacy). You are correct though, they are your servers, and your ladder. It may have started as the AC Ladder, but it sure hasn't finished as one. Thing is, I could totally see the TyD Ladder becoming official. It's got that much potential. The only thing stopping it is the blatantly selfish, corrupt, and negligent attitude that exists when it comes to moderating it. I understand believe me I do. You have a noble goal for AC that you want to spread throughout the community. Only problem is your use of brute force tactics to shove it down our throats. As well as the unforgivably rigid stance you take towards cheaters, reformed or not. Hey that's cool. Maybe next time you should PM / (you know that feature you turned off right?) somehow inform clans about the draconian measures you're about to enforce on them. I'm not talking specifically about |KH|. I'm sure legacy and oNe got nothing close to a "Hey, I am going to tag-ban you on my servers, as well as MY ladder for this... this... and this... I will give you time to respond before I do. Please do so promptly." They probably would have LOVED to know the reasons BEFORE it happened.
You think I hate ladders don't you? Well that's only partly true. I just hate ladders that don't cater to it's clientele. I also hate owners (Franchisees is the proper term) who use it to batter people around. Everyone wants to play the TyD Ladder, don't you realize that?? By not letting them you're unfairly stagnating the ladder for some stupid as hell worthless personal reasons. If there was solid and straight up legit evidence to show that oNe and legacy don't deserve to ladder then I'd say "Shit happens". But there isn't man, there is nothing deserving of a blacklist. What it looks like to me is just another high-handed TyD helping of Banhammer.
Time to send this thread or branch another into the Offtopic. I expect you to take care of that. Just make one with your response down there and that should be enough. I'll find it. That is of course if you're going to answer. Probably should since this is a nice tea party-esque discussion of the niceties of running the ladder.
