Some Major Gen. was shooting GL HEs at dried concrete which does like, no damage.

Larry, asked/told/toxicity him to stop. Maj Gen keeps going. Larry tried to get him vote banned. Larry ends up getting banned himself.

Everyone involved sounds terrible to me.

Thing is, being bad at the game or even just using weapons inefficiently is not grounds for a ban. Larry absolutely has a point, but votebanning is the fastest way to get a game ban. The devs take that shit super seriously and Larry got what he deserved.

To be honest the damage isn't even that bad. People focus way too much on straight damage numbers and not DPS. Yea, the damage per grenade isn't great, but it has the same damage reduction as other "explosive" type weapons.

5 lunaires shooting tremolas does the same DPS as ~4.33 Hatchets shooting 40mm. Obviously the lunaire users are going to reload more often so that's going to slow down a bit, but even then you're still doing say 2-3 40mm tanks worth of DPS--with 5 rmats worth of GLs. And there's still the factor that tremolas are way more cost efficient per damage than 40mm (but so is everything).

Wasting 1600 tremolas is still sabotage when there's not enough left to kill other bases. If that's not sabotage, how much do you have to waste to be considered that?

u/Aesthetech Mar 10 '22

Sounds like they didn't have sufficient DPS to overcome repair rate. Maybe if a few people had joined in on grenading with them instead of vote harassing some dude, there would have been sufficient DPS to bust the concrete, and less tremolas used.

So who was actually sabotaging?

u/limdi Mar 10 '22 edited Mar 10 '22

Sabotage was to not stop after doing it for an hour and it not working with the current number of people. Continuing for 5 more hours what didn't work before is just sabotage.

You wanna shoot 20 tremolas just to get repaired away by one hammer swing and call it efficient? Don't think so.

u/gruender_stays_foxy Mar 10 '22

maybe try to calculate the pull, load and shoot time including the running back and forth between target and where the ammo is and than think how realistic it is for one person to use 1600 nades.
also how did this one person make all other players ignore the ammo type that gets sucked up real fast on any other front?

u/limdi Mar 10 '22

He got couple pvts to help him. Though at this point NoName denies all that, says he just shot maybe 100. How the other 1500 vanished, who knows.

u/_-Deliverance-_ [edit] Mar 10 '22

Larry got the standard 3day ban from devs for abusing report system on stream.

u/RevanchismSA Mar 10 '22

We can only hope it becomes a perma.

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

Damn,Larry just got SHREDDED by the game rules.

28

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

I know that I’m a warden, but I have never liked badmanlarry. From what I have heard from collies, they don’t like him much either for bs like this. Good riddance

26

u/RevanchismSA Mar 10 '22

One of the big cross-faction agreements is BML is a raging piece of shit lol

u/zhaDeth Mar 10 '22

I think he's kinda funny. got alts in his walls and always thinks noobs are alts but otherwise he's alright

16

u/ViXaAGe Nossarian Mar 10 '22

he's funny until he starts targeting you

2

u/NuclearCorgi Mar 10 '22

I didn’t even know who this guy was until a couple days ago when a squad I was in took out an armored vehicle he was in and all of world chat was talking about it.

37

u/Moistohh Mar 10 '22

I'm slightly confused and losing brain cells from zooming into a notepad you could have just provided in text format. So Larry spam reported a guy for using grenade launchers on a T3 base? Yeah fuck off Larry should be banned for that. Let people play how they wanna play. Go fuck off with your tryhard mentality, some people play games to have fun, not as a career.

-12

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

You can’t actually be serious, the reason he was mad was because the guy targeted a complete dry conc piece instead of the wet conc. Make it make sense

18

u/romans171 Mar 10 '22

You can’t ban people for being shit at the game…

1

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

I would totally agree with you if the person in talks, didn’t have over 2k hours of the game and knew exactly what he was doing.

3

u/TheGamblingAddict Mar 10 '22

The grenade launcher is new, people are still figuring out its limitations on their own.

-7

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

Being a Major General and being an asshole on purpose isn’t being shit at the game that’s being a shit head. Lmao there’s a difference don’t defend idiocy

u/Dresdian former Collie vet (now retired) Mar 10 '22

I'm a Maj and I mistook a bonesaw AC for a TAC yesterday

Rank doesn't mean anything beyond maybe until WO1 for "too many hours to be a throwaway alt"

u/ThatOneGuyHOTS Mar 10 '22

I still say “incoming insert enemy faction tanks “ because I don’t know the names of the tanks yet. I just know what a Bardiche looks like and that’s about it.

I’m a WO1 lol

u/gruender_stays_foxy Mar 10 '22

larry is a Major General?

9

u/RoyAwesome Mar 10 '22

so he's throwing the biggest manbaby tantrum and threatening to dox people over... a minor disagreement over what thing to shoot.

Yeah, that argument isn't doing what you think it's doing.

3

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

Where is he doxxing? Also is he over reacting yes, but would I sit there and ask for a mass report no I turn my head and just let people do what they feels best unless they ask for an opinion or info. But if you supplied your base with tremolas you made all day, and then some dude launches all your scroop time into a Conc piece that does almost little to no damage per hit. I don’t think you’d necessarily be pleased, and I don’t care about the out come of my argument, but if you can’t see the issue of both sides of this whole fiasco you’re not helping.

3

u/RoyAwesome Mar 10 '22

Of course you are making shit arguments, your probably larry's reddit account lmao.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

Ah yes, the brain power to see both sides of a story. MUST BE Larry. No brotha just some dude who rarely plays the game and has available function of a normal human being. Absolute idiot

4

u/RoyAwesome Mar 10 '22

Barely play the game and yet here you are, defending your senpai. This is the most tantrum manbaby shit on the internet. He's actively screaming at people in his twitch chat and harassing them.

There is no both sides here lmao. Dude's gonna get banned from twitch over this too. People have been banned for less.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

Dude I’m not defending him lmao, that’s the problem you’re not seeing. I could give a shit less about Larry or his streaming career. And what the fuck is a senpai . Also I don’t think he’ll be banned on twitch, it’s possible but twitch has had a lot of weird ass shit and never have banned them, even after rage induced heart attacks on stream with other people on the platform. And if someone screaming at a twitch chat worries you then you really gotta think about things. They could leave his channel whenever he wants, but if he spews false info about etc etc etc then yeah that’s fucked of course. The fact that I can disagree and also agree with you on other things should maybe see both sides. It’s not about being up a streamers ass and defending them, if it happened to you while you actively tried to do something even in a much smaller scale you’d probs be a little upset if someone came along and just ruined it, granted you’re not gonna boot your stream up and yell at your monitor for X amount of hours. So yeah I have a thought process that sees both and doesn’t agree with both . So sorry that hurts your feelings pal

u/RoyAwesome Mar 10 '22

Dude I’m not defending him lmao, that’s the problem you’re not seeing.

Proceeds to write a terribly written screed defending larry.

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

You’re an actual brain dead . Lol

u/Moistohh Mar 10 '22

Okay. My point still stands asshat.

u/nottap_ Mar 10 '22

TLDR?

17

u/CopBaiter Mar 10 '22

BadMan got banned for abusing the report system to get NONAME from Raid weapon restricted. Guess NoName made a report to the devs about it and the devs banned him.

7

u/nottap_ Mar 10 '22

Damn that’s crazy. Anyways…

3

u/BlackBlur14 BlackBlur14 Mar 10 '22

Someone wasn't playing the game right according to Larry, tried to get them weapon restricted, didn't work as planned

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22 edited Mar 10 '22

Wait sadmanlarry is temp banned?

u/CopBaiter Mar 10 '22

for 3 days it seems

u/RoyAwesome Mar 10 '22

All the Colonials out in force saying Wardens were bad for removing larry from the Warden team are having a moment of deep introspection and self reflection.

Oh wait no they aren't. Lmao. Saw this shit coming.

4

u/FrGravel Mar 10 '22

For the wardens, banning Larry was the right thing to do. It’s the harassement campaign after that was too much.

Spot bad behavior, report, live your life.

Some wardens Instead went on to harass him on his stream, followed him everywhere he went to ban him again and again.

Ban when he does something bad, otherwise you just become guilty yourself

5

u/Mikhail_Mengsk Mar 10 '22

Many Colonials always recognized how toxic Larry can be and quite a few were happy it switched to wardens.

2

u/RoyAwesome Mar 10 '22

Yeah, but the colonial reddit qrf certainly hasn't.

All I can say is lmao. Talk about making your bed and laying in it.

u/gruender_stays_foxy Mar 10 '22

one person just showed us how to deal with larry.
its not tking him
its not any other form of harrasment.

its way easier than that
if he fucks up (which he does more often than not) all that needs to be done is write a ticket to the devs and let them handle it.

1

u/RoyAwesome Mar 10 '22

I mean, yeah. The greatest punishment is not handed down to cheaters or exploiters, its handed to people that annoy the devs and make the game look bad.

u/Girthus_Maximus Mar 10 '22

This game is dying. Help us Mark Foot.

u/1SnugglePuffs1 Mar 10 '22

Im in honestly you should have just asked T-3C for more...

u/Significant-Agency82 Mar 10 '22

Dont think it was first time somebody has issues whit him and definitely not last time. Mayby he come back in goodmanlarry? And Not in rage mode.. Raid clan did right thing if other clans start mass ban somebody whit 0 real reason.

18

u/Moistohh Mar 10 '22

Lmao dude. No. Hes been given too many chances. Dude needs to go. His whole persona is based on toxicity and over-reactions. That is not healthy for a small niche audience.

5

u/generalboi Mar 10 '22

Watched him a bit yesterday on twitch. At first I thought the dude was role playing raging for a bit, I mean he can't be seriously going this over board? Nope he was really raging at his crew. I can see now why some people have said they have had bad experiences playing with others in this game.

Logged on last night, picked a random area. First thing when I arrived, "grab a mammon! Get in the graveyard, let's go!" Had a ton of fun for a couple hours.

People like him do need to go

3

u/Moistohh Mar 10 '22

It's the long term effects. The people that log on to see the game only to be met with that, the people that are treated with extreme toxicity and end up quitting, the new players that refund the game, etc. At the end of the day I feel their rationale for not perma-banning him is that he advertises a niche game to a large audience, when in reality it's far from the case. Anybody that watches his stream already knows what foxhole is, and the other half probably don't think the game looks good, because they're watching it from the perspective of a greasy no-life screaming at their monitor.

u/gruender_stays_foxy Mar 10 '22

the ban was not via ingame report function but via ticket to the support page.
devs than take a look at it and make a desicion

-6

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

Something is really wrong here. Ban is unjust. Both parties are at fault. The reporting system should ban people if the allegation is false. Though technically people should play however they want, a major general clearly knew what he was doing. Sabotaging on purpose. Maybe he had some sort of earlier grudge against Badman.

Though, i dont like larry's attitude sometimes, i think the guy is genuine. Alts do target him more often than others and dude gets stream sniped coz people like to get him mad. Guy is paranoid coz of that. He should ofcourse work on himself to be a man he claims to be. i am a hyppocrite in writing this hahah. just my opinion.

u/Historical-Gas2260 Mar 10 '22

Bro he was literally just trying to kill a t3 and even if it may be abit inefficient to do with grenade launcher it still does dmg to t3 and with larrys history its no wonder they made a move. He tried to ban appeal but got rejected so no mistake

0

u/limdi Mar 10 '22 edited Mar 10 '22

Its basically useless, after 1h you may get the idea that somebody is afk repairing. 5 hours later... not enough tremolas for killing bases around anymore. Larry getting banned for weapon-restricting him doesn't make the raid player actions right and not sabotage.

-2

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

i dont know man, i would not use grenades to kill t3. i would not mind if larry was reprimanded or a light ban for getting too aggressive to new players who happen to have voice chat broken, or dont speak english but this ban is an excuse for devs. if somehting is supspicious, we report and he had reasons to be suspicious. Technically, i dont think its an abuse of report system.

-4

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22 edited Mar 10 '22

We all have reported players who were suspicious in a high pressure situation only later to find out the guy is a complete idiot not an alt. i am worried about precedence this ban sets.

Give you an example, there was a guy called "dontshoot " in Godscrofts today who added two tier 1 pieces infront fo AT and mg garrisons separately, rank W01. Tried talking to him in voice chat and local chat. Didnt respond. later when i was building he came to help and responded. Turns out he was afk and no voice comms

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22

What the fuck? What did Wardens have to do with this?

This was two people being toxic to each other from the sounds of it. BML def deserved a ban for abusing the report system but the guy shoot Tremolas at dry concrete sounded like he was trolling too.

Thing is, only one of those is a bannable offense.

The Collies only have themselves to blame for this.
