' Wrote:What happened was a Phantom player got mad because I over powered him and so he took my statement "now get out of here you worthless piece of crap" and reported me as if I was flaming at him and rule lawyering.
The thing is, the line you have quoted could easily be interpreted as being directed at either the player or the character. As a result, the phantom in question probably got offended by the statement as he thought it was directed at him, not his character.
I think the thing that needs to be learned here is to be more specific when you give such a taunt, so they know that you meant the character and not them.
I think that brings me up to 4 cents worth here...
Dammed if you do, Dammed if you dont .. hmmmm where have i herd that before?
OR you could be the victim of a poor sport (someone that didnt like being run off and went to the admins with tears in eyes claiming to be offended, so they could get revenge on you for being a better pilot)
Quote:I don't mean to make this topic drag on, or to make a big deal out of something that's obviously not, but if (and I'm only saying "if", since I don't really know what happened) a Phantom player can't handle something so insignificant then why was he chosen to be a Phantom? As far as I know Phantoms are chosen by ADMINs, yes?
Just for the record, most of the Phantom characters *are* admins. So you're probably quite screwed on the getting unsanctioned front.
that makes me wonder if it was an admin did he seriously think i was rule lawyering or did he use his admin powers out of spite? This whole time i thought it was some sensitive kid that couldn't take some harsh RP:(thats a bummer i guess i wont engage phantoms anymore, better just not to risk it.

NO, they are not. Yes, there are THREE admins in the Phantoms. However, two hardly play in-game, and the other is me. There are EIGHT (soon to be nine) other active members in the Phantoms that are NOT admins. As such, that quote in your signature, N00bl3t, is false.
I'd like to quietly ask that you remove that quote from your signature. Kuraine was mistaken here. I understand this was ten days ago, but I have just now noticed or I would have argued back when this was new.

On a side note, Phantom players are not chosen by Admins, they are chosen by Phantoms and are fairly thoroughly discussed by several Phantoms before we decide they can be invited. (Of course, final decisions run through Kane, considering he is Faction Leader and still active presence out-of-game.)
