Discrimination Againat People not in a team
Submitted By ChrisPerson on 10/08/12
Mars Explorer, ChrisPerson, Community, Discussions, Other, Teams 
This Discussion originally posted in the "Mars Explorer" Group

Recently it has come to my attention that there teams now set up on Mars Explorer, such as team Sonic.
 
These teams often play games of laser tag against each other, and to keep quarry, sort of like capture the flag.
 
The more I see these teams however, I see that they are becoming less game-teams, but more groups that discriminate against others. For exaple, I got banned off of a server just for saying that I was not part of a team, team Sonic.
 
I fully support the idea of game-teams for laser tag and so on, but when it is more like a gang, it is not needed.
 
My request is this: do not ban or evict people off your server just because they are there and not on a team. I do not sugesst the idea of no teams, and actually like teams. Just not when they do not get along with others.
 
I know all that stuff about privacy, and that is reasonalble. but if you want a private discussion, or for no more people to join, set a password!! Many people go for the servers at the top of the list, and so if there is not a password or something else there, people are going want to join. Lesson learned: set passwords for privacy, not banning people. Banning and evicting was created to stop illeagal or disturbing things on Mars Explorer, not for evicting and/or banning people just because they are there and you want to have only members of a team, or a private discussion. If you want that, set a password.
 
 
btw, HOW THE H**L ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO JOIN A TEAM IF YOU GET BANNED WHEN TEYING TTO JOIN SO YOU CAN ASK IF YOU CAN JOIN?!!! And i have never called anyone on Mars explorer an idiot.

Sonic labels their servers "Don't join unless you're sonic".
 
I have one to add Chris. Don't call a server host an idiot (as you have) for refusing to follow your demmands as to how settings are to be adjusted. 
 
Something tells me you will be banned more than YOU think you should be, teams or no teams.
 
Hi Chris. I'm kruncher. I'm the bad cop around here.

To continue, If you got booted/banned from a server, it's much easier to go play somewhere where people actually want you, rather than fight to be around a bunch of people who want to get rid of you.

Then there's always the option of hosting your own server and playing with your own setting by yourself where no one can boot you. Right?

You don't seem to get the word "Privacy".
 
If I wanted to have a private conversation with Tiger inside a server, I would boot you if you came in because I would not want you to hear it.

Teams are okay, but when they go to extremes such as this, they become a nuisance. 'Sides, if you're dominant, why not play in a new way that challenges your skills?

On one hand, someone can do almost anything they want within their own server. They put it up, they own it. However, as Tiger says, groups/clubs/teams/clans sometimes will boot people from their servers without good reason. I'm not going to say they can't do that, but I will say that I don't like it.

''Honestly its just a bunch of noobs, no one cares who they are.'' Ditto. 
 
It's immature and shows dullness on the part of its perpetrators (*points at the comment directly above his*), but if ya can't brush it off, like noted start your own server. Also keep in mind that the ''teams'' are virtual. Those people got nothin' on gangs, so if I were you I'd spend my time caring about other things than them.

My two cents:
I think that the teams are fine, but they should not be taken too seriously. Team sonic has a meeting running all the time. They also have said that all people on team element are liars. Although this statement could be true of some, it's extremely unlikely that all of them are. Furthermore, some of them are good players. You shouldn't discount people just because there on an enemy team. It's teamist. Besides, isn't this just a game. There is no need to fight with another team except to have fun, so don't judge players by what team there on.

Leave them alone and they will probably leave you alone. If they don't, make a private game.

I accidentaly bumped into team bomb before I ever heard about teams.  They didn't seem do discriminate against me, they just ignored me (in the chat) but they did talk rivalry between teams.  It's fine with me if people make teams as long as they aren't mean, which they haven't been to me yet.

Teams, Clans or whatever people choose to call them will always be here.
 
I like the idea of players helping other players improve their skills or just have fun together.
Unfortunately this is not the agenda in most of the teams/ clans I have encountered.
 
I don't care much for teams or clans, but do not evict or ban them on contact either.
- Noobs are asked politely to play by the rules, and if that doesn't help, they are simply evicted.
They may rejoin and will be allowed to stay if they follow my rules. If not, they are banned.
 
It may sound like I'm just another bad cop, but I find this method less tiresome than the alternative.
- Besides, our bad cop really isn't that bad once you get to know him. ;O)
 
- MD

I totally agree....and I've always thought these teams are a little strange. Clubs like ACC are nice and make sense but players are actually getting rude between some teams, hate flying around etc :/

I'm a really random person of doom, death, destruction, annhilation, and a bunch of other crap. (I really wrote this comment just so I could say that...).......... or do you think I'm more of a cop???

1. I took a screenshot of the registered *cough*      Person      calling me an idiot for not changing my settings according to said "Person" 's demands so I know it did in fact happen.
 
2. There have been numerous posts about how booting should be controlled by someone besides the server host to increase fairness and every single one of those posts were created by people that deserved to be booted and the posts have all ended the same way with most of the community agreeing that A. host must remain king of the server and B. if booted, accept that you're not welcome and move to the next server or create your own.
 
Just so everyone knows, my servers are almost always for aerial dogfighting in the buggy with low agility and other vehicles disabled. If anyone repeatedly interferes with the game or gamers they get booted.
Join me some time Chris and try an intense dogfight in the buggy! No distractions, very little talking, a lot of flying and shooting! We try to keep the text box full of Quarry change announcements and "got"s.

Teams are getting worse. I mean, I've always been okay with teams, since they've never really bothered anyone (except for the Club Wars, ugh...) But just yesterday I've seen some worse stuff. Remember back in 1.9 how all the clubs wanted t "Kill" or "Beat" each other? Just to feel tough? I saw Multiple Team Sonic "Meetings" in-game and another game named "Kill Team Sonic." These so-called "meetings" started in 1.9. So did the hate between clubs. I think we need to put out the spark before it turns into a bonfire. Lots of people were also following Team Sonics example, creating other teams. We might have a big problem on our hands if we don't stop teams from ruining the last version of Mars Explorer.
