TOPIC: [Demotion request] Angelus

@DarthVader Even if he spawned in those weapons he used them strictly on people who didn't mind, it isn't like he ran into a the PD and shot all the cops, he used them simply to help someone, and if we use that prove we're basically demoting him for helping someone, so to avoid being hypocritical we must demote the entire staff force and replace them with minges.

@ nameful, lol he cant just spawn weapons to "help" someone, u just proved to us that he IS abusing his power. u cant go spawning weapons and "helping people", that is called abusing your power.

normal users get banned for just 4-5 warns in a row, so what about angelus?
from the evidence I saw, I think that Angelus must not only be demoted, but also permabanned.

+SUPPORT

EDIT: I had a friend who just prop minged and prop climbed and got banned for 2 weeks, only 2 warns and he was banned...... he was also new and his first game in gmod was in ZARP. that's not nice, and u banned him for 2 weeks, what if he broke the rules 15 times?

I was not gonna reply, but I felt the need to do so after reading your definition of Power Abuse, what you meant was spawning any kind of entities that normal players or admins/moderators don't have access to, for fun or not fun, alright then, in addition to the Super Admin with the Davy Crocket, I have seen 3 other Super Admins spawn such entities, for fun., without damaging anyone or hurting anyone, which is also abuse in your definition.

I'll explain what they each did one by one, but, I won't mention any names, I just want them to identify themselves alone if possible.


First Super Admin, my first days of being accepted a moderator, he got himself the secret car, went radio manager, and spawned the car chairs that are not spawnable neither by normal players nor the Furniture Salesman, he placed 3 on each side of the car, and called his car the Party Bus, which means, he spawned entities that are not accessible by normal players, then, he attempted to weld them, which means he used a tool that is not possible for normal players either.

Second Super Admin, this happened not so long ago, same with the first one, spawned us those chairs, and welded them, we were all cops at the time, there was 2 moderators with us in addition to him, we all enjoyed that, and no one was damaged, but, following your definition, that is Admin Abuse according to you.

Third, was spawning those IED Detonators, and was having fun with them, all players near him had a good laugh, it was enjoyable as well, no RDM happened whatsoever though, just doing narrations while using them.

All those were enjoyable moments for me, and was not any kind of admin abuse if you ask me, instead, just trying to have a good time, and I'm only mentioning those to have them to consider the video posted by Johnny Smith if it qualifies as abuse or not, I am not trying to accuse any of those mentioned above of abuse.

As mentioned in my first post, I am not trying to justify the other videos, as I haven't watched them and I wasn't there at the time, I am justifying the ones that I was in, and trying to fix up your PoV's on the videos.

I'm requesting that you rethink about your definition of Admin Abuse Darth, and think about what qualifies as Abuse and what qualifies as just having a good time.

From what I've seen in the first and other videos he doesn't really go around asking darth if he "could noclip out of his arrest", or if he could "tp to him and kill him with a spawned m202"
Clearly he (and others) did have a problem with it, hence why there is a forum report against him.

I have only ever seen him once in my game time (apart from one time he Davey crocketed server 2 no proof)
but all of these vids and pics show that he needs to be demoted ASAP!!!!!
but as he is a member of staff he will probably get the next chance to improve (hopefully he wont)
THEN we may get a new superadmin

This thread was too tl;dr for my liking.

Also, about damn time.

Super Admins should be the ones that set the example for <em>everybody</em> on the server; staff and users alike. If Angelus is breaking this many rules and setting this sort of an example for everybody I would say he's undeserving of the position.

I know from Friendly Players that demoting a Super Admin is a very big deal though; especially if it's a total demotion to user. I understand the Lead Team has a final say however I would suggest a demotion to Moderator (or maybe even a more limited custom rank, similar to a trial) and make him work back up to Administrator proving that he is still capable of staff.

Do you think a guy like that should even be a staff? Check what he replied about this thread then edit your comment

If he is tooo lazy to read his own demotion request,I personally think that he should be demoted to user. If you notice his last sentence: Also, about damn time.
I think that he knows that he was going to get demoted someday, aka he knows that he was breaking rules and abusing his powers all along.

JohnnySmith wrote: Well, doesn't seem like he thinks he should be a staff member. After seeing the comment I'd say to fully demote him, and to question how someone who has no concern over a large demotion of a <em>Super Admin</em> and expected to get demoted even got the position.

to staff or not to staff hummmm
