Hello Riley,
I’m not going to waste time so I’ll get right into this. Riley is a fairly new regular on US Trade and has been keen on applying for admin. Currently however, the US Trade team is closed for applicants.
As a donator, Riley believes he is completely immune to every form of kicks from plugins or admin commands. This is not true. You are immune the AFK Manager, but it's not a thing on US or EU Trade. Let me clear up what it actually is. (Someone can correct me if I'm wrong) AFK Manager is a feature that prevents players from AFKing randomly to avoid round delay on our other servers. It’s not a thing on EU/US Trade because sometimes, some players may appear AFK to do trades and such, but typically start moving again after a few minutes or so.
(Also I'm not even sure if we even still have AFK Manager? Might be an outtdated thing on the donor page?)
Your situation is much different. I constantly catch you staying AFK for 30 minutes to nearly 2 hours sometimes without any movement whatsoever, even after asking in VC “Are you there? Are you there Riley?”. By staying AFK for so long, you’re still racking up hours of playtime. You are aware that the minimum required playtime for applying as admin is 72 hours, so you’ve constantly said on US Trade “Guys! X hours until I can apply for admin” which further proves the point that you are indeed AFK farming hours for application time those times where we catch you. You cannot farm hours for an application like that. If you think buying donator to be immune to getting kicked for AFK will save you so you can farm AFK hours to make an application, you are wrong.
You were kicked for farming hours. Kicked. Not banned. You can easily reconnect to the server and since you have donator, you have a reserved slot, so it’s no trouble at all to simply reconnect. But the attitude you had with my Trials after coming back from being kicked was absolutely unacceptable. You do not talk down to team members like that and tell them how things are gonna go, “No no, this is YOUR last warning before I report you.” “Looks like someone is getting demoted.” If you really cared about wanting to apply, you would be more mature about the situation and try to understand what is going on rather than threatening my Trials. Do not talk down to my team members like you’re in charge. You are not. That is unacceptable behavior.
I could go on about some of the other reasons I'm declining this, but I've already taken up a lot space so we'll leave it at this. Your mute has already expired. Your gag expires tonight. You are more than capable of waiting a few more hours for your first 2 comm blocks. We’ll be watching your behavior and you may not be warned for toxicity again. I hope you’ve learned your lesson.
Declined.
