THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT BELOW IS FROM SENIOR ADMIN AND THIS SUBJECT HAS NOW BEEN CLOSED:
I have just spoken to Damit and Edd The Duck both BF Head Adms and I have had a full explanation of why and how the Bf servers have been set up and the reasons for this.
Both Head Admins have been working together making our servers the highest regarded and in the top 5 servers in Europe.
Both have visited non >XI< servers to see and analyse what works well and why.
They have then as an admin group collectively decided to set up our servers the way they currently are.
Before the set up was made it was noted that due to 64 players all playing at once this brought with it players from all over the world who often used words such as "cunt,fagot,fag" etc and the words were not being used lightly,they were being used to personally attack other players over their game play.
It was noted that once someone had said "you are a cunt" etc then the same came back to the point that all the Bf3 Admins seem to do was constantly warn players in regards of personal attacks and when no admin was on this went on and feedback came back to the Bf3 Admins saying that our servers were just like all the rest and something needed to be done.
Now if you say cunt or fag or faggot etc you get a warning on the screen to mind your language,if you do it a second time you get a second warning and so if you do it a third time you get killed (not kicked or banned).
Kicks are still carried out manually as are bans other that automated bans for racist words.
I like the other Head Admins see this as fair and have agreed with them that this will remain the set up.
What does come through to the Bf3 Adms from visiting players is that >XI< has got it right and this is why people want to play on our servers and this is why we are so highly rated as other servers that allow the attacks to continue have become ugly.
When No admin is in game this automated system continues to work and keep the server a place people want to play.
If the word Nigger or other such racist words are used the automated system does ban.
The Bf3 Admins are doing the very best here for the clan and the majority and we do not want to make any changes to this.
