Just so you know i looked at sourcebans before i made my earlier comment and approved that the players were dealt with (no reason on the mutes btw) but my critism and comments reguarding how the situation was handled while i was on the server are valid and were directed for the time i was on the server, not after i left when the players were finally punished. Neither uncle sam's or cliffords punishments were explained by you in the time i was still on the server, sam's gag not being explained by the admin who gave it lead to clifford questioning your decision for the punishment, yes he knows the rules and already knows the answer to that but im not here to defend him and never was i was only ever here because of the way you handled the situation. You cant just run around giving out the punishments and not explain or give reasons to them because it leads to situations like these where you are questioned about your decisions then you mute the people questioning leading to more problems, if you cant effectively communicate with the community and its players you shouldnt be admin.
Also i dont know why you think im commenting without knowing the full story like i outlined in my post before everything i said i my post was what was happening while i was on the server i did not comment on anything that happened after and stated that fact sereval times that my comments were only valid for the time i was on. You shouldnt be pissed that you had to come here to explain it you should be pissed you didnt do it when the player you punished asked you directly on the server and you didnt respond.
And the "you don't know your place" comment i only hope you meant that to clifford not me, because if you think you are all mighty and cant be criticized by the person who did more for the server during his admin than anyone else certainly including yourself on the server then you are serverally mistaken and need to take a step back and think. You dont get respect automatically because you are an admin you get it from the actions you do for the server and the actions you made when i was admin, the rumors i have heard from players since i left and the way you are conducting yourself in this abuse report and on the server before you havent earned that respect at all. Its just embarassing to watch this, like i said before take my criticism and fix the problem that made this happen, if thats fixing you then so be it.
