    Unkown at this time, but probably long enough for a factory to be built to build a new GPU for you to buy.

    I wasn't there, so I may be wrong on something, but here's my opinion regarding issues like this in general.
     
    As I understand, Origins made a fireteam (or a squad?) run the length of a runway up and down as punishment for "fucking around" (I assume it's the more or less typical behaviour we see in EU3, where people don't listen or just ignore SL/TL).
     
    Now, this kind of punishment may be done in Real Life or some Milsim/Realism communities, but EU3 is a fairly casual server compared to more structured Units. By making a whole team run for however long it was, you're not only punishing that team, but probably someone else as well (It could be the whole server if the team is needed somewhere). Also, running isn't a real punishment in this game, all you have to do is press a button. I consider this more of a waste of time than anything else and EU3 already wastes a good amount of time during normal gameplay, which may be the reason why people start pissing around to begin with - boredom.
     
    If someone's breaking a rule, follow your admin procedure, which I assume is the warn-kick-ban. Deal with it fast so you can continue with normal gameplay.
     
     
    If you have a moderator strategy, then either follow it or change it. There is no point of having it if you're not going to enforce it. Hopefully people will stop pissing around after they notice that it's actually punished.

    curiously read over this this morning while sipping my 4.30 coffee and not that i really am into the situation nor do i know anything about how you EU3 people do your buisness i can sure imagine that when you in lead of a group/squad/army you cant take to much "monkey-buisness" while you try to get your stuff done.
    Its with no doubt that measurements have/had to be taken - i think we all can agree on that.
     
    But whats questionable (to me) is how a disciplinary call ( forcing people running down the airfield ) is a good way of handling this very situation.
    After all,people just push their WASD keys for a extended period of time and be done with it,while in their mind this will only force anger and even less morale (to parts of the group).
    Might rethink the strategy here.
     
    Like said,not that i care much about this very issue - wanted to drop my 0,02$ as i´ve recall similar exercises in parts of my (clan) career and even back then we thougt its a BS to put it mildly.
    No offense ...

    Maybe instead of that, if someone is doing something inappropriate or simply doing whatever they want, I guess you can spawn an enemy in his face and punish him on the spot with a following warning that if he was behaving correctly that wouldn't happen.
     
    I left when the running event started so I wasn't there after it, but did the running resulted in good behavior? My guess would be that it didn't.

    This is indeed a rant and also a critic.
    I agree with the rules of the server and always try to enforce them in the chain of command when leading any kind of team or reporting bad behaviors as necessary.
     
    But this post is not about that but regarding a specific situation that I'm not even aware of the reasons that cause it. Logging in the server and having the admins online forcing people to run down the air field to prove that the chain of command must be respected is not the way to go.
     
    If people don't respect rules/gameplay in server:
    1) warn them
    2) kick them
    3) ban maybe?
    Admin abuse is never the answer.
     
    If I wanted to have punishments I would have joined the real army or just go into another type of server.
    I respect the work of the people that make EU3 work and I enjoy (very much) playing there. But I can't support these kind of atitudes and these were exactly the same reasons that made me take a break from Ahoy around 2 years ago, so basically I feel that nothing has changed, only the "faces".

    I am gonna point out again, we have mechanism to report players/admins. You had a chance to post a ban appeal, which you denied.
     
    Those videos mean nothing to me, the 1st one even shows you teamkilling, altough its clearly stated in rules you are not allowed to retaliate. 2nd one just show how big of a foul language you have. Is the 3rd one supposed to show you having some special kills? Anyone can kill bots like that.

    I'm cracking up because of the next quote!
    Note: I only read the first couple of senteces of your post, then decide the rest is a waste of time.
    "sentences"  A perfect acknowledgement of your ignorance. Yet you'll never understand your issues because you don't face them!
    I was banned under the laughable circumstance of "ban avoidance".  Any idiot would laugh at that shiit because that judgment is befitting of a retard. You don't explain your action only imply it's wrong. You've never stated why it's wrong other than it's wrong. how on earth did you fucking come up with the conclusion that I was attempting to avoid a ban? In reality I pressed ALT F4 because I have had enough of your server and it's TEAM KILLING IDIOTS.
     
    Look at the narrative you've encourages your divine followers. I fart in your general direction and wipe my arse with your nose.
    FACE IT! IN REALITY YOU DON'T HAVE THE INTELLIGENCE NOR THE WIT TO BEAT ME!  SO THE BAN IS ALL YOU CAN AND WILL DO FOOL
    You'd rather throw out labels and dam people because you are by definition acting like a retard.
     
    try getting to know people before judgement!
    LMFAO

    Look at what you protect!

    Question: Is it possible to get a more detailed statement about what happened?
     
    What happened? Exploit in software (and could it be prevented by an official update) Hack into the server (and could it be prevented by server admin / hosting company) Abuse of admin account (and was the admin called "admin" with password "admin") Could it have been prevented? By the team who maintains the website (update, server config, admin credentials) Or was it a day-one attack without any known fixes What is done to fix it? What is done to prevent it in the future? What will be done in the future to prevent it from happening again? Who was/were responsible? At AW side (simply "we as AW" is an acceptable answer) the thrid party who "got in" (if known) These are some questions which I always answer in case something happened, even without asking, so I'm surprised that we don't have these yet.
    I'm aware that not all questions can be answered directly, a a bit more information than "shit happened but we're back" is too little.
     
     
    Background: I've been working in web development for over 10 years now, and unfortunatally had issues like this as well. And I've learned that the most important thing is to stay transparent to clients/users/etc. and take your losses, even when it's not visible to them (which in this case did happen).

    Short text, holding a test for Valiant as ive done a couple of days work on it now, hopefully unfucking it after Apex and a code-merge that went really really horribad.
     
     
    Do mind this is still getting developed and ther are stuff lacking in terms of standard loadouts and the arsenal is currently empty as me and ryko are testing a new soloution for the weapon lists.
     
    This test is to just to check again if the mission works as intended etc.
     
    You will have to download an additional mod that I have prepared HERE
     
    The test will be held on 124th's server as I am also going to test ASR in large scale.
