Only u davy.... Only u........ It would be a dream come true if we could get paid to sit on our tails and play df all day long lol.

Not so sure, what about Jacob? Havent seen him in awhile, and kevy for that matter

I think dogfight needs more mods for sure. But reading this thread----> www.dogfightplay.com/index.php/forum/4-a...w-can-i-become-a-mod I'm not sure zup would add more. I think world chat should stay because a lot of smaller squads use it to recruit members.

Hi Kes! I'm here every day at least once. Mute finger is sore. I just don't mention them here anymore. Most are "0" stat players who can't or wouldn't come here anyways. As the Falcon mod here my job is pretty easy! Most Falcons wouldn't dream of stretching the rules to far.

Need to report this guy for sitting on runway in tank spawn killing. Screen shot but cant attach it. Any tips plse.

I got one for you Kevy. I was in a game, DRAGON WARRIOR was on other team. He TKed one of his team mates, game ended shortly after. Next game he was on my team. I told him at the beginning of game " Teamkilling will get you Banned". His response was "you do it too", so I said no I don't. 10 minutes into game he started shooting me, he took me down twice ( on purpose, no one else in sight ) so I reported him in game. Asked him why, no response. So I waited for him to try again, when he started shooting, I turned and spanked him. I got him twice, then he left.

Team Killers are a tough one. They should be getting the 5 minute ban automatically. I usually wait until there are multiple reports on the same guy. Some are regulars here paying back others for doing it to them. Some are new players who don't know better or are testing limits. The reward for team killing is so small I wonder why the they do it? You lose a ton of points and get a ban on top. Occasional players will do it just for kicks and a two day ban is nothing to them so fairly useless. If they do not respond in game they likely don't care about a temporary ban or whether or not it ruins your game.

Hi Stachel. If I am to understand your posts luftwaffe 6.2 was spawn killing with a tank in a dogfight match? Considered one of the big no-nos of the game. There should be a radius around the base in dogfight match were a tank just re-spawns back at base as a plane. That being said we used to just call a truce and everyone destroyed that tank and didn't let them in a tank again. After being destroyed every time they entered tank most of them quit to go elsewhere to try it. Eventually we didn't see many try anymore.

DRAGON WARRIOR and Luftwaffe 6.2, banned.

Sorry Kevy, I was on a tear and missed your post. If you want to shorten their bans let me know or just have at, when I use the console I tend to accidentally on purpose forget they exist.

I think the only place a tank respawns as a plane is if it touches the runway.

Yep! If they respawned out by where the BTB limit is they couldn't get close enough to spawn kill. This would allow tank battles away from the base. Those are fun! A tank shooting at planes taking off from long range is also a great time. Taking off with one parked right behind you...not so fun.

There may have been an enabler in this match as well. Spawned and was in a tank too frequently.

Thanks for posting names Stachel. Most here read them and deal with them accordingly!

salman955 - tank spawnkilling in a dogfight mission.. here is the "smoking gun" shot..
We all banned together to kill him shortly after I mentioned it in chat.. also here's the list of players in the game who can also confirm it.

Just a heads-up, the current name of our ol' buddy ihotrod is "not me"

Kevy u are alive lol

Hi me again lol
I just wanted to stop by and say thanx for unmuting me in game chat, I really appreciate it. Still no explimation or word of why I was muted to begin with. It happened after I was promoting my squadron on chat. Seems abit wiered or odd but it could of also bee when when someone on chat was talking about someone's mother and I jokingly made the statement " hey, don't talk about her mother, we don't call your mom out" now to me that don't seem like anything offensive to say but whatever the case is I do apologize. Now can I please be unmuted from world chat and game chat. As a squad leader it is very importaint to be able to communicate with my squad. I'm not gonna lie I'm getting impatient because there are more offencive players such as 23639 who have said worse stuff. Two days later he's back on. It's been over a week and I did not pay $30 for this. I politely demand to be unmuted or I will email zuperman. Telling him to check up on his mods. Thank you and have a nice day;)

Zippy,
The Mod Panel does not show you as muted? It may be a glitch, so an email to Zup might not be a bad idea.

Ok j, thank you for that info good sir. Sorry if my last post may have seemed abit rude. I just didn't know if I was just unmuted in game chat, I hope you can understand where I was coming from though. Bfoust I will try to get them on forum. Kinda hard since I can't chat in squad chat lol

Sticky fingers repeated team killer. Warned at least 3 times. Twice by the red team. Gave dent and dino a pass on him. Continued trying to teamkill. I took a 5 minute and will do it again.

Here's his numbers.

I'm curious. I usually don't use the report to moderator option in-game. I think last night was the first time. How does this work? Does it send the report to the Mod group instantly? Does it go to Zup? Does it include a name change? Or just the name that was reported. Does it display the in-game chat. It said in the middle of my screen ..88.. Has been reported. Does he also see that message? He sure left fast after I did it. Also changed his name. Can someone explain to us how this works exactly. I'm going to start using it along with the Blacklist because I like the on screen message. I hope it sends the reported players info to the Mod group.

If you don't know how to do it I will explain. Push the clip board and pull up player stats. Hit the players name you wish to report. Type in the box why you are reporting. Hit send to moderator. If you do not wish to report just push OK.

Back when I was modding, the Report button sent an email to Zup and not to the mod group. It seemed counterproductive to me, since Zup was trying to avoid being inundated with emails. I doubt if anything has changed since then, as mod tools are a lower priority than game fixes and you know the state of those. Mods, correct me if I'm wrong here.

Basically I wouldn't use the Report button for anything but that message. As for action, it's like sending a request into a black hole.

Useless then. The on screen message is nice though. I think I will test it and have someone report me in-game to see if it pops on my screen. Super useless if the reporter is the only one to see it. It should send to mods.
