It's not favoritism, it's protocol. The multiple issues include you going on an alternate account and being racist (including anonymous tip-offs and reports that I gave to I believe @Vexx though I may be mistaken), the history between you and Zack specifically arguing and the various times other staff have witnessed you on the server.
And what happened with me before was on the forums was just under 3 years ago. Pretty irrelevant

Thanks winslow brother 2, but again year gap is still a long time think of the changes you were faced over 2 years (especially sam) :thinking: 'Multiple issues' since the last ban however I have not been banned for such thing? The bind was only posted after he immediately joined and shit talked me and my friend for being there - if you are claiming his ban - sorry his mute is justified because of 'he had been in trouble notably less than you have' that is complete aids and is favouritism at it's maximum fitness.

Server Ban Information:

After being recently banned for 1 month for 'Trolling, harrassment' by @Elcark , for what is in my opinion unfair reasoning I attempted to add elcark on steam as I'm aware they don't fully understand the situation...however I was rejected so I'll make a ban protest instead. Following suit a ban request on 'Zack the shako'.
 
After stomping a player called zack the sharko on the local server of hyrule as soldier (y) he became agitated and aggressive on the mic, which I replied too. His main critque was that my grandparents are dead (strange insult if i'm honest as it's false) in which, i replied 'lol yours are the same', this provided me with the best response I have ever seen from someone online which he replied in chat after 5 minutes of voice crying: '
Scalie Zack the Sharko : My grandpartents could easily kick your fucking ass kid' which is probably the best quote in the world which has been designated as my '[' key.
 
Now this key gets pressed a fair bit when typing simply because it's next to my enter key and I love it. Zack has demanded across the server once that I can't use it even though he does it to other players... example(s):
 
Val - reknown good player on the servers the exact type zack get triggered by - DEAD Scalie A shark : Oh boy kid cunt val is here
He says this as val joins, is this not harrassment exactly what zack says I am doing? :thinking:
 
Spoopy - a great demo player another prime target for zack's rage -
'EAD Scalie A shark : What
Scalie A shark : That smurf
Scalie A shark : Or cheats
Scalie A shark : Spoopy
Server Mod Spoopy : ?
Scalie A shark : Look at shadowkillers profileScalie A shark : 1 hour

Scalie A shark : And hes getting headshots Ez Pz

shadowkiller296 : are you angry ?
Scalie A shark : IE

Scalie A shark : SUre'

I'd like to talk about my ban now - 1 month remember that, for 'trolling,harrassment' by elcark. Firstly in the rules there is no mention of not being able to have binds, sure if you had a bind of straight racism or homophobia that is different but in my instance this is a direct quote. If you are directly this quote to any rule it has to be disrespect - exactly what zack the sharko does when he plays. When entering the server he will usually shit talk all players yet still direct it towards me, I just ignore it after it it's a game. When I press the bind after his vocal littering he goes berserk calling all admins such as @Kypari and @Krampus immediately after the bind is pressed claiming it's not fair to use the bind even after his unprovoked shit talk. Another interesting point is the warning system, I was not warned about using the bind before the 1 month ban was placed. The only warning i received was from Krampus asking for me and zack to shut up, which after getting my point across and zack not listening i simply muted him. However I was informed he was still talking shit even after being muted and asked if he was on local chat and bam, muted! That mute is kind of justified as krampus was just trying to stop the situation escalating anymore, after that mute took place zack cursed and went off.
Further more, my ban was 1 month and the furry friend who is immune to the full consequences of his shittalking actions due to his furry friend admins only received a 1 day mute. :whistle:
Lastly I want to talk about zack's approach to justify why he can 'legally' shit talk me and other players on the server. He claims others are 'harassing' him by killing him and not talking by using the in game taunt system, for me however I was 'harrassing' him by 'following' him to the pokemon server (which i am in the top 10 players for and play there with queen) :D after getting bored on tgh. :thinking:

@Elcark @Kypari @Krampus

:thinking: Using ban history as logic for a future ban which is nearly a year later seems weak. A whole year has passed in that time. On to your second point: 'you reacted to it and decided to use this to further irritate him.' this point i can't fully understand as I had explained he was eventually muted as well as if someone is continually talking shit about you about a matter months ago(which most of you edgy kids still do - why i don't talk to 90% of you) you want to solve the issue and ask them, even when using logic Zack the sharko would not even listen and continue his splurge of nonsense. Lastly, your player chat history seems ok to me, zacks seem more tame in those instances but I can assure the voice chat was nothing of the sort. Perhaps if I am going to talk I should use voice chat instead as text chat is commonly used as evidence. Also Zacks' logs contain call admin spam and fully of lies :thinking: isn't call admin spam also against the rules? You can still see him initiating the chat also. As much as I disagree with your message thanks for actually posting

As mentioned above, using a players' past history of bans on servers is a terrible way to dictate a future punishment's duration. The common player the late teen catergory going into adulthood :thinking: . If you think a 1 day mute is a punishment for instigatin and pissing off a whole server and many of the regulars you need to re-think your policies.
 
I have said my points, sometimes once or twice to make them clear I will no longer reply to messages of the same points after I have explained the other wing. Thanks for the replies bros

Basing your whole thread on speculation is your biggest downfall, this is all just assumption and haven't 1) talked with me, 2) talked with the workshop author, 3) checked the map formatting. Firstly you continued to make a thread which is embarrassing as hell for you when basing with just assumption. You removed and didn't responded to my message on steam so

is a LIE. This was mentioned to @Tatost not you. 
The fact you failed to keep me added and discuss/ hear the other side and just flat out remove me to post on forums shows to me you only want drama. HMK is only my friendlist and from day 1 I have said HMK is the texture man, nearly all are by hk in-which they are called 'hk_tree' etc.
 
This map has been through several variations following player input and thus was changed to 'open' which makes it obsolete from being a route, the map doesn't have a proper name as it's not finished and the final various were still in the works.
 
It's such a shame when you do nice things for the community and people try and piss all over it, espcially from someone who I thought was mature, very odd behaviour kid you should get that drama fetish fixed.

If it's ok with the map dev, I can replace it with this.

+1 was a great admin and cares a lot about the tf2 side

+1 on tgh often, thats all it takes to get mod now.

There is actually a song about uwu I was just posting a thread for everyone to see. [MEDIA=soundcloud]id=kore-wa-hentai%2Fuwu;track_id=327032856[/MEDIA]
@ThunderLimes for you ;-) and @Kypari

+1 really good guy who is super chill, it was sad when we lost him and have wanted him since

Nice review Septik!
Other M takes a lot of shit from the Metroid community, and often rightfully so. It's interesting that you find the game to have many more positives than negatives.
I've never played Other M or the Prime series myself (although I plan to using this new Wii emulator), so I can't speak to it personally.
 

 
I love the way you maneuver in Metroid, too. :3
Also, LOL WTF
 

 
Yeah that's one thing that pisses the Metroid community off, the new ability authorization feature was a blow to a player's feeling of being like an unrestricted bounty hunter. Stuff like Samas' character (PTST, submissive as opposed to outgoing and cold-blooded) and the potentially sexist female deceptions and clichés plus a few other things I can't name off the top of my head also are noteworthy.
 

 
Something I didn't know about Other M was how similar a story and setting it had to Metroid Fusion, the final game (chronologically) in the storyline. Maybe that's one reasons fans hate it so much, for being apparently unoriginal? Besides the setting itself, a lot of the plot points and even charters first appeared (by release date) in Metroid Fusion. Having actually played Metroid Fusion, this does upset me a little. But probably not as much as it will when I actually play the game.
 

 
Huh, interesting. Every other Metroid fan I know said Other M's characters seemed shallow.
 

 
Oh cool he's from Super Metroid.
One of the space pirate (Zebesian) commanders. I'll talk about him in my Metroid 3 review, really one of the creepier parts of the game.
 

 
:eek:
 
Thanks for the info on this game @TBOHB ! (y)
I have a few questions, though.
 
1) How creepy is the game? That's a Metroid staple, after all.
2) What other Metroid games have you played? How do they compare?
3) What did you think of the difficulty? Too easy? Hard? Just right?
4) How was the soundtrack?
5) Anything else you want to respond to (the examples of Other M criticisms I brought up)?

I'll give it a 10/10 as it's the characters I'd probably type if I mashed the keyboard in rage

my ability would be to grow hotdogs for fingers and toes.

Game Name: Metroid: Other M
 
Platform: Nintendo Wii
 
Time Spent: About 18-20 hours. I had one file where I first played the game and ended 100% in about 10-12 hours. I had a second file on hard mode which took about 8-9 hours
Do you recommend?
I would recommend this game if you can find it at a cheap price and own a Wii (cuz I mean who doesn't).
 
What you rate the game: I give this game a 7.5/10
 
Initial Thoughts: First thing: Visuals. Holy crap the visuals and art work in this game are incredible for the Wii. I would never think this was a Wii game. Maybe think it was an Xbox 360 or PS3. One thing I was wierded out by was the first camera angles. They went really cinematic on the camera. It never got in the way and landscape would fade out if the player is in front of it, and I wish I saw that more in 3D platforms. Did I mention this is a 3D platformer? Well I think this is the first Metroid game that is a 3D platformer, and while a lot of people say it was too hard or they didn't get it right, I think they got it spot on (Ill get more into that later). My first thoughts when first going into the game were blown away and wish there were more games like this.
 
Gameplay and Story: As I mentiod previously, this game is a 3D platformer. This is one of the best I've played. You run fast all the time and glide through platforming areas like a russian gymnast glazed in butter and wrapped in the smoothest of silk. While I do dislike the limited 8 directions of movement on the d-pad, it can be comfortable in combat. But there are a lot of straights and your thumb WILL get sore after a little bit and holding one direction. Speaking of combat, the combat in this game is fast paced but is a real blast when you get good at it. At the beginning, a scientist runs you through the basics of combat with holograms of Zebesians. He'll tell you about this quickdodge where you tap one direction at the right time just before you get hit to perform it. And if you hold the attack button and do the quickdodge then your beam will be charged up to the max. The charged beam does more damage than the regular beam. You later get a diffusion beam upgrade that when you use the charged beam, it scatters and hurts things around it, making it useful where there are a lot of enemies. But back to the tutorial. The scientist then tells you about this mechanic called overcharge. If you charge the beam and jump on an enemy, it will do a lot more damage. Next is the morph ball, one of the most iconic abilities. All he does is tell you about the bomb and power bomb and it is over. Lastly is the missle. Point the Wii Remote at the screen to enter a first person view where you can lock to things, enemies, or whatever. Similar to Goldeneye 007 on the N64. Also throught the game, you will find upgrades whether it be more missiles, more HP, or charging up faster. The HP and missiles are more important in the long run, so get as many or much as you can find. While playing the game, you would come to the point where you would need to hit enemied behind glass, so Adam tells you to use your plasma beam and you can kill stuff through glass from the point foreward. He will tell you to do this from time to time to keep it flowing. Like "Samus. Use your Speed Boosters to break that wall" or "I need you to get to the other side. Super Missiles now authorized for use".
 
Now we can move onto the story.
The story is a little deep, but not very long, hence the short playtime. You start off by receiving an unknown distress which she names "Baby's Cry". Bounty Hunter Samus Aran heads to the location known as the BOTTLE Ship. She meets Galactic Federation 07th Platoon lead by your old friend and commander, Adam Malkovich. This is the beginning part but I wouldn't want to spoil the ending and juicy parts...
 
 
 
 
But I will anyways. Members of the platoon start dying randomly by someone the GF sent to silence everyone who has been on the ship. Also the BOTTLE Ship was a space station made for rebuilding habitats of other creatures, including Metroids. Samus made all of the Metroids extinct though by killing Mother Brain and destroying the Planet Zebes on her previous adventure. She still had residue from the last baby Metroid on her armor and the scientist from the tutorial harvested the residue and sent it to the BOTTLE Ship to regrow the Metroids in a controlled environment. So basically shit happened, they created a new mother brain in the form of an AI, called it MB, gave it a human body, then it took over the facility because it developed emotions and that can happen I guess. So blah blah blah she turns one of the Metroids into a Queen Metroid. Also you have to fight this thing later and if you don't know what you are doing have fun. One tip: they can be frozen. (Also I forgot to mention that when making the new Metroids the altered the genetic code of a lot of them to be resistant to cold which was their one weakness. Now you may be asking why you can freeze these. That answer is this Queen Metroid was a non-altered one so you can freeze these. They also needed a reason to give the name of the game Metroid so they added this random one as a plot device). So yeah back to the main story, Adam Malkovich detaches a sector of the ship that houses the area for Metroid breeding. But the way they made it detach from the ship was from the inside so they needed a reason to kill off a Dad character. So some more gubbins happen, you find out that this chick you met who called herself Madeline Bergman is actually MB, A.K.A. the one who started all of this. So you meet the real Madeline Bergman who tells you how MB was made and how herself is the lead director of the facility. So more gubbins happen, the GF show up, kill MB, and find out your friend Anthony who thought died earlier whilst fighting Ridley is not dead and escorts you out of the building. In the Epilogue of the game, the map shows you all the stuff you missed in the sectors so grab those and time for the final boss. His name is Phantoon and headly counts as a final boss. He looks like a giant space squid thing. So you kill him super easily, in like 3 minutes because his weak spot is always open. So then you go and find Adam's helmet, hear over the automated intercom that the ship has entered self-distruct and will blow in 5 minutes, in usual Metroid fasion. So you escape the ship with the helmet the end. Whew that sound like a handful. The story itself was in total, maybe 5 hours if you don't stop for upgrades. Really disappointed in the shortness of it. Still a good story nonetheless. But hey, Longer and more on depth the Breath of the Wild's main story.
 
Pros: I really enjoyed what we had of the story. It provided a nice experience and flowed smoothly. It kept me engaged to find what happened next. I also liked the frequency of when you got access to your abilities. You get them when you need them and keep them to use elsewhere. And when you just think that it might be the extent of what you can have, you get more. One last thing I liked was the cute little rabbit thing that follows you around. It really adds charm to the creatures the inhabit the station.
 
Cons: Like I said before, the story was way too short. They could've added another 1-2 hours based on the guy who started silencing Adam's platoon. There was some missed potential on a few different spots. A lot of the items/upgrades I had to look up how to get either because they didn't make sense or were too difficult to get to.
 
Final Thoughts: At the end of the day, the game wasn't bad at all. The chracters had well, character. It added to the story in the fact that I felt something when they died. It also added another level of suspense like they could die any minute. A lot of things in this just happen out of knowhere and is exciting to see what would happen next. So now the question is if I would recommend this game. That answer is yes. I would also recommend 100% this one as well. It feels nice to have that 100% on the map screen.
