Teddy

Well,kudos for the dev team trying to make I+A a better world ... /partly sarcasm
For a start i´d like to mention that restricting the LRPS to Snipers only is a unstandable offense - at least give me the option to make use of looting on enemy (snipers) to get a scope that way,i do understand where you coming from but i dont see the point in restricting any decent scope used for engagements beyond 500m.
Then we´r at restricting the Mk18 to Marksman class,which is another unstandable offense i m not willing to take easily,i can use any gun to perform equally,but i m using the Mk18 since the past 14months and now getting it removed from all my kits does piss me partly off,untill i found the AK12 - but lets not get offtopic.
Also i find Arsenal a overall to much clicky clicky piece of sh*t - creating a decent kit without Mk18 and having mine detector,LD,FAKs and sh*t took me nearly 20min and once in battle you notice your scope is missing or you forgot Smoke nades,etc - then u realise you can run for 10m then walk 2kmh forever,which turns out great if you r in engagement with a tank and you need to "quickly" get cover ...
Well,adapting aint that hard - but like Tedster mentioned,a little mention before hand would make things go down the throat easier ...

And dont get me started on VAS removal (yet not complete removed)
Sure,VAS isnt updated/supported by its maker anymore,but its far more convinient than the Arsenal BS (cant be opend unless close to ammo box) that takes everyones more time to get their kits chosen and is more of a 3rd person dressupdoll style to me.
Loading vehicles with Arsenal is quite hard to do,especially if you have to do it more than 1 time per hour.
 
I can understand that having two ways of selecting Equipment in 1 mission isnt a good solution too.
But i still digg VAS over Arsenal anyday ...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Complaining about my POE isnt up to debate,in fact i m always willing to leave side missions to formed teams that communicate (to me) that they are working on it - but,as reality proves - lots of people goign for side return to base in a coffin (mostly a burning one) and have no plan/expection/necessary gear to lead their "team" to a success of the mission.
You people just assume i m raiding "your" missions,where in fact you didnt bothered 5sec to figure out the conditions of approach and engagement necessary (INTEL as example) where i on the other side ... to much offtopic

As i understand, there are different ranks (ambassadors, Spartans etc.) and i understand that one is ranked above the other. Now, my question is say, if you want to become a Spartan, must you work your way up through the ranks below, or if a staff member sees fit, can just let you skip past a rank.
 
I think this is a silly/obvious question, but i'm unsure how strict the staff are with ranks and how they deal with it.
 
Thanks.

While we understand that it is frustrating when admins are unavailable to deal with troublemakers straight away its still not acceptable to TK. 
Report via Chat,TS or Forums if no admins are active and the people in question well be delt with asap. 
 
Taking the situation into account on this occasion the ban will be lifted, but in future please don't take matters into you're own hands.
