Celestial Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) Hello, and I'm just pissed at the moment. All of these servers I enjoy and go on everyday are being ruined by this one troller with the username "Nicman". He's been causing major problems to servers, such as spamming (Joining and leaving with a dirty name), as well as greifing Free4All servers. And we are hopeless on stopping this guy, as we can't kick or mute him, unless we put the server on password only. But putting it on password only will prevent others from joining, making the server boring. In any case, is there a way to stop this? I'm losing it. Edit: I did find that he's been faking names, crashing servers by spamming (Joining and leaving, as usual.), and other players are getting pissed and blaming me and others for the incident.

Celestial Posted September 17, 2016 Author Share Posted September 17, 2016 Pretty much. He's been everywhere. Link to comment
imlegos Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Nicmin? Who's he? Sounds like a jerk who spams white listed servers with attempts to join while periodically changing his username. Link to comment

Celestial Posted September 17, 2016 Author Share Posted September 17, 2016 How long has he been around? A long time, I'm guessing? Link to comment
Nubbie Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) At the same time isnt the forum ment to point fingers at specific individuals Stuff that's going on the server ain't something the admins/devs can do anything about and is hard to stop Ideas to stop/make it harder for greifing/trolling would be better Edited September 17, 2016 by Nubbie Link to comment

Broxzier Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 We've decided against that for a couple of reasons, but it was the idea for a while. Personally I see two major main problems with that is: Someone has to maintain the server, making sure it's always running, and that you also need to keep it running, even when only a few people are using it. 1 Link to comment
HookerHeels Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Free-4-all servers are just asking to be griefed. Whitelisting is the best solution as of late. Link to comment
nicman Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Just so were clear, all that stuff that has been happening recently was not me. I found out that someone was impersonating me today. I admit, I did do some stupid stuff before, like a few months ago. But nothing like Celestial had said. Link to comment
imlegos Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 No, nicman, get the hell out. Link to comment
SensualEthiopianPolice Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I just got back from a server that "nicman" was spam joining. I said hello but they kicked me and whitelisted the server. That's when I realized how bad a problem one person doing this is. That host didn't look like an active member of the orct2 community, the first time I had seen him too, and now if he ever hosts again, it's going to be whitelisted or private and probably won't change. If we ever want to be a community, we really need to crack down on trolling. 1 Link to comment
nicman Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) ^That is exactly what I am talking about, someone is using my name. ^^If you choose to believe me or not, is your decision, but I telling you the truth. Edited September 21, 2016 by nicman Link to comment
SensualEthiopianPolice Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I can 100% verify that Skylander is pretending to be nicman. He joined a server alongside a griefer who spammed the chat. When @Thewarf321 asked skylander a question, the spam immediately stopped for skylander to respond. Later, "nicman" joined right as Skylander was talking about him. I asked nicman a question about himself and he failed to answer. I know we all already knew it was Skylander but this is just more to the burden of proof. 2 Link to comment
