http://www.winbolo.net/gamelog.php?mode=logfile&key=6136bf4719f7b0177309150b5f82b4ae

For joining a strict game in progress, taking bases, and basically just ruining the game for the people who were trying to enjoy it.

If you want to be unbanned, talk to me, otherwise, sorry but we can't let you ruin things for the people who enjoy playing.

Sup, maybe we can work something out. Coldfinger is my brother so I am now banned too. He claims the game wasn't in progress and $$$ started taking bases so he started taking bases. Not sure but I've been in games where stricts are not locked and the games were treated like opens. I just think games need to be locked so this doesn't happen. Before the game is called, players need to make sure the game is "client locked" before the game starts. If people told Coldfinger to leave the game is in progress and he refused and then stayed in the game and started to take bases and was messing around on the map there should be some sort of restrictions set for him. This is the first time anything came up about this, myself and Coldfinger have been playing on bolo for around 5 months. Would be nice if we can get access back. Let me know thanks Min

If this is the case then why wasn't it brought up before? You obviously just have a problem with me :P

no its the ignorance behind your claims, its nothing new, i just gave up trying after the bajillionth time of telling you guys not to start, or join an existing game and piss off everyone. there is no animosity. you guys arent the worst, your just not the best either at adhering to the rules. if my criticism of your conduct in games is too unbearable, well, thats where the crescent moon poo comes in, you eat it

Well cool we banned... Way to welcome new players, not enough players even play this game anyway..... I hardly even play so it doesn't matter to me. I guess it was fun while it lasted. Peace out
Mar 01, 2010 03:28
well thats us shown, and you got a good 'last word' in, and a joyous snipe at the winbolo community. I will certainly welcome you back with open arms, when you give in to your childish sense of honour and grace us with your presence once again. peace out indeed. dickwad

Don't get discouraged, I'm sure Min will unban you. Join this chat room where we are, it would help: http://tinyurl.com/winboloirc

I'll definitely unban you, I just need to have a talk with you about the rules first to ensure you fully understand them. Once I'm sure you'll follow them(all of them, not just a few, you have been purposely farming before go also, I've seen in it numerous logfiles), I will unban you. Its no big deal.

This rule is simple, don't join strict games in progress. Strict games are -never- treated like opens, they never have been. That is a bad misconception. If you join a strict in progress, tell them to lock the game, and then leave. That's the polite thing to do. You haven't previously been banned because I haven't been enforcing the rules, not because the rules didn't exist.

Join irc, we'll talk, you'll get unbanned, its not a issue.

Nooblet,

Ignore the flame baiting by certain other individuals and pay attention to Min. All he's asking is that your brother play Bolo with honour. Coldfinger has been routinely acting like a jerk for some time. I haven't witnessed the same behaviour from you, so perhaps you're the older, more responsible sibling?

My son plays bolo and he and his friends were a nuisance when they started in junior high. After awhile, however, it's no longer newbie behaviour and it must stop.

Coldfinger has also been witnessed speed hacking by myself and others. Bolo players are a small community. When you're as rude and disrespectful as that, people react predictably. Have him stop and apologize now and all will be forgiven. It's really up to him to show some maturity.
Mar 01, 2010 18:22 Hi
i joined the irc chat and said 4 words then was remvoed and haven't been able to join. I'm lost?

X pretty much hit the nail on the head. Thing is, I want you to continue playing. I really truely do. However, I want you to follow all the rules so that everyone has as much fun as they can have.

So, once I talk to you about the rules, explain them all to you, if you agree to follow them, you will be unbanned. New players are winbolo's future, without you guys the game would slowly die off, and I for one certainly don't want that to happen.

I would like to chat but I can't access the chatroom, it says erroneous nickname. I created an account on the mibbit page, please help.
Mar 18, 2010 08:56
if its saying erroneous nickname it means you are starting it with numbers. you have to have a name starting with letters. also your nickname may already be taken by another user on mibbit so you will have to use something unique.
eryan123 perhaps?

I worked out the problem:
I was typing:

It should just be:
