My views on CVT.

Started by Axi., July 05, 2012, 23:35

Axi.

I recently returned to CVT, and the way things have changed has shocked me.

When I used to be here, last year, everyone had respect for eachother and spoke to eachother like civilised people. Player reports and ban appeals were handled calmly, and the people who were banned, warned or spoken to would, in most cases, accept their punishment without arguing or insulting.

The respect has gone. Admins and moderators now seem to be inundated with violent insults, aggressive ramming and childish, selfish players who think they have a divine right to insult whoever they please without a care.

I loved it when CVT was about the players, the community, the fun and the events we held. Now, it has become a race to prove you're not a 'noob', and to get more score than the player you hate. This server can never return to it's glory days because of this hatred and anger.

Most of the players I knew and loved have left, mostly because of changes and arguments. They were amazing people, and whenever I logged on I would be waiting to talk to all the old legends and convoy with them and have fun, but now when I log on, all I see is either people arguing or spam.

I just wanted to give my views on the current state of CVT.

I miss the people. I miss old CVT.

It must be shit to be an admin at the moment, the amount of crap you get given is horrific. Why can't people just have a little bit of respect for each other!?

Konali

if you just behave well as admin, and keep in mind that this is only a game and not real live. Its pretty doable lol:)


Back in  December i had the same feeling axi, but i realised time is just passing away, alot of old veterans tend to live in the past. And if there is 1 thing i have learned here is that looking back to the past just doesnt help. I am still here because i have fun in the simple things as cop/thief but mostly to play with other players. I dont mind if that player is a rookie or a veteran, i just try to give them a good time. You can either look for all the bad things that are happening in CT, or just accept the fact it isnt perfect, and never will be because we live in a online gaming community where everyone has different opinions and tolerance levels.


Just give the game and the community your best you, and try to look away for the simple complaints etc. thats something that always will be here :)

There you go, cop didnt have a car and one was spawned for him.
Admins are helpers, not monsters.

And i just want to take this moment that i have to thank you SO much for giving me the chance to be a moderator. I really enjoyed it, and although I made bad decisions (like playing MW3 too much haha xD), I really really did enjoy helping players like never before. You were my role model, you were the best admin I had seen in years, and there will never be another one like you.

It will take another to replace me, but I dont think CT can recover if they lose you bro, I wish you the best.

(Pretty sure you hear stuff like this every day XD You're like Chuck norris)

It's unfair that admins can teleport to buy house, and reset their own camping score, but we have to trust that they won't abuse it. We have to trust them anyway, because the server is in their hands. Without admins server is nothing.
