Hey Shamantix, was nice meeting you the other day and talking old school gear. Always a fascinating topic.
Quick question:
I'm trying to get to the bottom of a player or two that showed up in teamspeak the same day you did talking trash to a guildmate. Unfortunately I didn't realize what was happening until after they were gone as I just naturally err on the side of hospitality when people stop in and thought they were popping in based on your earlier request to invite a couple of EU people in. Now I'm not so sure, or if they were your invites they seemed to have a second agenda as well.
Long story short when you were in TS I left for a couple of hours to go eat. When I returned you were gone but within a couple of minutes two EU players popped in - nicknames Natureeu and nECKBRACE. I missed what they were doing but they essentially came right in talking trash to a guildmate and I naively thought they were talking about gear (based on our earlier conversation) so kind of played along with them...only to realize later what their real intention was. They even went so far as to type out trash talk in the chat. I remember instinctively feeling like they had a tone of voice of a smartass but I figured it was because they had accents and therefore I wasn't sure. In retrospect my instincts were right.
They clearly knew this person was in teamspeak and came in with an agenda to trash talk them as they literally opened up with his name within 2 seconds of joining...so the question is did those guys get the login credentials from you or a US player? If from you, any insight into how they also came in talking trash that a US player(s) clearly put them up to? And whjch US player/players was it?
As you and I discussed we're very welcoming in teamspeak....but I won't tolerate anyone coming in there trash talking friends/guildmates if it isn't done in a manner where they're already friends and it's all in good fun. If those guys come in again, them and I are going to have a conversation which they may not like. I'm also trying to figure out if they got the credentials in an effort to send them in to trash talk or if they had them from you and someone else put them up to it. Trying to figure out who to ban, if I have to change password, etc.
It's just unfortunate that I didn't realize what was happening until they were gone. I know how to handle those situations very well. It's literally the first situation of someone coming in trolling our teamspeak so I want to squash it. To be honest I'm quite irritated that it happened.
