[Niknakflak]Retaliation for feedback, unfounded notes
Posted: Mon Aug 24, 2015 4:04 am
Byond account and character name: Varies, rowbutt91
Admin: Niknakflak
Time incident occured: Over the last two months
Detailed summary: Ever since I left feedback in niknak's thread, he's been leaving unfavorable notes and generally harassing me. I switched to a different byond account, just because I didn't want the attention associated with my account after the whole shitstorm the time I got a overturned ban for spacing a griefer and after leaving nik feedback and didn't want to be seen as some sort of rallying point for people who like drama/hate all admins.
Niknak admin pm'ed me shortly after on my new account, accused me of evading my notes, and said I have "substantial" notes which I think is a pretty gross exaggeration for someone who has been playing as long as I have. He then said under rule 0 he would permaban me if I ever changed accounts. If you're going to rule 0, I think this is not an example of an appropriate time to do so.I
All my other interactions with him in adminpms, he gives me vague or non-answers to any queries and then gets upset if I ask for clarification. After getting banned over a vague "go for it" during all the drama during that earlier mess I think it's pretty fair to ask for clarity.
Recently, while I was a scientist, someone sent a signal out and detonated all my bombs while I was going to mining and other departments and asking if they wanted any. I get that you should change the frequency to something harder to set off, but I didn't realize that at the time and now I learned. Nik banned me from all science jobs, which this isn't about, but during that boink'ing he responded with really vague answers and refused to be clear to me if I was going to be banned or not. Engineers don't get banned because their engine destroyed the station if they clearly did it by accident ONCE, but anyway, this isn't about that jobban.
I asked for another admin to handle it because of our history. He then started calling me a "baby" after I asked for another admin (again, I was polite to him, I just asked for another admin) after which point I said "don't be a dickhead" in response to him calling me a baby. That was as far as I insulted him in that exchanged. He left a note on my account that says something to the effect of "is a huge pain in the ass to deal with and always whines in adminhelps" and "is hostile to admins." I asked for "literally anyone else" to handle that case with the bombs.
I think nik is looking for any excuse to add notes and bans on my account, and in a clear case of an honest mistake, he jumped on the opportunity to ban me and goad me into insulting him (in a pretty minor manner).
I'd also like to ask that, as before, "literally anyone else" goes through the notes nik has added to my account and reviews them. People's notes get used against them all the time, so I think it's fair to ask.
It's totally unfair to characterize me that way in notes because now anything I say gets seen through that prism which becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy with the "flatness" of communicating entirely by text.
