Hello PBS,

• Hell Let Loose
• Explanation to what happened:

  I was just playing on artillery most of the game with my friend, people kept running into artillery marks. at one point we saved the point by getting like 20 kills on the attackers, and friendlies kept running into the artillery barrage for some reason. Later on we decided to tank and defended the point from the center with friendlies around. There was an occasional teamkill accident, the hitboxes of things are unpredictable in this game. At no point did I intentionally teamkill someone, probably someone just got salty and complained.

  I’ve been playing on this server for a while now without any form of incidents, and receiving a 14 day ban out of nowhere seems a little excessive

PS: when creating account, I received my password in plain text in my email inbox, this is a pretty big security risk, please don’t do that

Kind regards,
Zab

Hi Zab,

Thank you for reaching out, you got a time limited ban for mass team-killing. Intentional or not, if you cause enough friendlies to die (like on the 13th of May you took out 11 friendlies, or yesterday (16/5) you took out 13 friendlies in around 45 minutes) you can effectively lose the game for your side.

I will remove your ban, but I have to ask you to ID your target before trying to kill it. If you find it hard to properly ID your targets when playing Arty or Tanks then I suggest you play another role to ensure you do your best to not ruin the game for others.

Because if you keep up this level of team-killing you fall under the category of game-spoiling behavior and you will get a perm ban.

Wishing you a lovely weekend.

Hello Swag,

I appreciate you removing the ban. I understand your side of the story, please also keep in mind that it’s not always as simple as “ID-ing”. When on arty, it takes approx 24 seconds for the shell to land, which gives plenty of time for blueberries to run in there. Most of the time I announce my targets through voice chat, and always through arty marks on the map. I even individually address squad leaders when I see they are about to run into areas. While that works out most of the time, there is the occasional game out of the normal where things just don’t go the way you want.

I understand that it might not be fun for others to die by friendly artillery or tanks, however it is a part of the game, and if the result of 1 teamkill is 10+ enemies killed in 1 shot (which happened yesterday, saving us the point and game on 2 occasions) that’s another story.

Furthermore friendlies sometimes climb on enemy tanks (which was the case in the game I got banned on 2 different occasions, I counted), so they will die when I shoot that enemy tank from the gunner position of my own tank, and there is unfortunately no way around that.

All that being said, I will pay more attention to my targets.

Kind regards,
Zab
