The fact is, to jump on a server of people you don't know, who may or may not have invested alot of time on their server, may or may not have had a really crappy day, and really don't give 2 cents about your opinion, and start criticizing their server right off the bat, is not all that tactful.
I've found that it pays to keep your opinions to yourself unless you know who youre talking to, and you know how to navigate a conversation diplomaticly...
Im not saying BK that you weren't wronged, you may have been, but I've had people come onto my server, demand that I level them up, give them GM status, etc, and have gotten flamed both on the boards and in my private email because I didnt cater to their wishes, so know I feel compelled to ban people from my servers who step on there for 3 seconds, and start bitching that they can't level up, and what an asshole I am for not giving them GM. I've even gone so far as to ban people from EQEMU completely who have shown themselves to be troublemakers on other servers as well. I hate to have to resort to that type of tactic, but crappy behavior won't be tolerated on the forums, in the game, or in IRC.
But, back to the point, I don't know the truth behind the matter, personally, doesnt really matter as it's their server and they're free to eject you if they don't like your opinion/attitude.
But, on a point to server owners.
Your servers/accounts/IP's/SERVERS CAN be banned should you be caught abusing players, so some couretsy on your part would be appreciated.
Everyone play nice, and no-one has to get hurt.....
