JunK here, obviously.
I know im just a poor ole =(eG)=, however i just want to throw out a quick reminder of how important =(e)='s are not just in our community but to our admins as well.
Admins are unable to see/hear everything. Whether we are in game and somebody is droppin F bombs on the other team, or we're alive and somebody is going on a rant while dead. We may just be focused on the task at hand or we may just be human and miss some things. We obviously cannot fill up every one of our servers all the time of admins in order to catch everything, but luckily we have our =(e)= community and regulars to help us out!
You do not have to take matter into your own hands, don't bother yourself with the responsibility right now, just use admin chat and let us know whats going on. "teamchat: @ this guy is swearin up a storm right now".
"This thread seems a little pointless, don't you think we've said this over and over". You'd think so wouldn't ya, but lately i've seen our newly recruited =(e)= members doing nothing or even instigating and egging people on towards such behaviour instead of advising our admins of the current situations. Hell the majority of them probably won't even see this post because they don't even check the forums, haha.
Now i didn't really want to bring this up either, but it pertains to evening teams as well. I've noticed a lot of regualrs not being so regular on our dust2 server specifically because of the complete and total stackness that always happens. Lets be considerate and swap over once in awhile, especially when asked.
Also i know i am not apart of AR, but for me the people that would stick out as deserving =(e)='s would be the ones that properly use admin chat for the appropriate reasons to alert the proper authorities in order for action to be taken to keep our servers punk free and enjoyable for all. Not somebody that is hungry for power trying to take matters in his own incapable hands, and not somebody that does nothing, and definitely not somebody that breaks the rules himself.
Lets not forget who we're representing.
 
Good post Junk, and yes, it has been said one hundred times, but unfortunately that's not enough to get the message across.

e's should not be warning people, they should do what Junk said, and that's bringing it to the attention of the admins on the server through admin chat.

The main problem with e's admining is you have not attended admin school and therefore warn improperly. It often comes off as rude and disrespectful right back to that pubber, which is not what we want.

To e's: If there are no admins in the server, check THIS thread out.

To admins: Check THIS thread out for how to deal with e's trying to admin.

This is a good post and it should go to all =(e)='s not just in CSS. I see this happening a lot too in COD4. A few fellow =(e)='s don't know when it is time to stop egging people on and it gets a little carried away. However, so far every time that I have seen it happen once they have been warned they stop.
 
Alright I'll make sure to let you know if you miss anything. You're right, it's important for e's to give admins a hand.
 
thanks for the post Junk. We should also tell this to the e's that aren't using the forums though
 
Nice point :) I know that thing and i report admins if they dont know :) But This post is Great! Stickied?
 
Nice post Junk,

you are absolutely right about this. if an eg or ego are in the servers, bring it up to them in admin chat and LET THEM handle it. if there arn't any in the server contact one through steam chat, get screenshots, type status in console to get steam ids, there are lots of things for us to do to help. Sometimes I've woried that i would be bugging someone when they are playing a different game but i have never had anyone ignore me or not help out, thanks eG's and eGO's, we appreciate the help.

One more thing that I have been amazed at, I tend to play at all hours and lots of times there are no admins around, so when i am the lone representative I have been amazed at the results when i politely remind players that swearing is not allowed on the server or letting someone know porn sprays are not allowed. the usual reply from the players is something like "my bad, won't happen again"

So fellow e's, if you are alone and no admins are available, before you contact one in another games POLITELY remind the other players breaking the rules about our rules and you might be surprised at the results
 
I was going to make up a post specifically about the team stackage on dust2. I really wish there was an autobalance like that old one. So people would get swapped around a bit. The CT win count is almost always 20 and the t's MIGHT win 5. Since I have joined EGO i have spent atleast 90 percent of my time on the server as a T because If I dont no one else will. Really gets old. And asking someone to switch does no good 95 percent of the time. EGO frank the tank and AngerMagnetic always ask people to even it out. If im not a T already, I switch. I wish some other people would jump on the bandwagon and stop padding their scores. Just because they are not skilled enough to play T. We loose a lot of players on the servers because of teams being so out of wack.

Admin school.......Most common rule broken is cursing. All you do is say that you are not allowed to curse on the server. I will be nice and give you a heads up before the admin gets involved. Just so you know. Obviously all the rules are posted to read and you have to agree. Most people just hit 1 and go on gaming. I will message an admin if I see a hacker or something that needs attention. If its something small I will just let them know what they are doing wrong. If its kept up, I will alert someone to deal with it.
