There is truth in both sides of this argument.
The logs (over 130 pages initially from the time Tiz logged on until he left me xxx) have been reviewed.
There were numerous complaints/warnings given to Tiz. I wasnât there so can not verify the actual spawn killing, but there were at least 3 admins and a regular playing that viewed it as such. It appears Tiz did change tactics but it was not in time to change Wha?âs decision. One kick does not justify âAdmin abuseâ accusations in this situation.
I have asked all of our admins to either answer with a âwhyâ when asked or not at all. The player should know after being warned the adminâs reason for the kick. Continued questioning becomes badgering and gagging might follow.
Tizod handled it appropriately by bringing it to the forums and PMs. Although a different title would have been more just, his emotions make it seem reasonable. He was stopped from explaining to me in game because of the tournament match that immediately followed the incident.
Tizod in not only a great player, he is a laid back kind of guy and Wha? is one of the most fair and easy going admins. It was one of those nights where even the most passive had marginal patience and a great deal of passion.
