I recieved this email awhile back and I find it highly strange well this was the email. I was wondering if anyone else has gotten this. I responded with who are you, whats your website, what gaming experience do you have - they couldnt respond and they got really nasty and were pretty much jerks. I know 5th ESB and OBC and they are not bad clans at all, I think this guy got pissed at us becasaus we screenshotted him and he refused to turn in the screenshots LOL i dunno just curious if u guys got anything like this before.

Diva,



Today I was on your server playing when one of your members forced screenshots of me. Well, I am not going to send them or any of the screeenshots they forced of me under the 14 other names. Why ? Because cheating is not the issue. Everysince the dawn of time there have been games and people have cheated at them. So, complaining about cheats now is pretty much a waste of time.

To give you the honest truth, I am one of 7 captains from a gamers group who is sick and tired of the foul language, the verbal abuse and the fact that some people use their gaming clans as a front for illegal scams via the internet. We have banded together in an effort to get the federal government to regulate gaming servers more tightly. We are gathering data to present to 4 United States Senators in order to get a bill passed so the FCC has stronger control of the gaming world.

We have been in several servers across many gaming platforms. To let tell you the truth, on a scale from 1 to 10 on how a gaming organiztion deals with unsavory players, your clan ranks about a 4. I have played in your server under many names including Greased Up Deaf Guy, J. Porksword Esq., The Shaft, KY Warming Liquid, Turd SQueezer, Major Dan, Gump, Prvt. Gump, Captain Insano Jr., and many others. The bottom line is that your clan is not even close to taking care of jerk gamers. I have a full FRAPS video from a night of gaming where it took your clan 2 hours and 31 minutes to kick a player who was verbally abusing other players with several racial slurs.

I will give you credit you are better than clans like Groundzero, 5th ESB, SK2, Shock and Awe, 1st Rangers, Black Duck, Old Batards Clan. But there are many other clans that do one hell of a lot better job than you across many gaming titles.

If you want a civil gaming community, contact me. If not, say no more.


Sincerely,
The EYE

I'm not sure what this person is up to and I'm not even going to try to guess.

However, I will say that he/she is right in the fact that there are a lot of "poor sport" gamers who happen to be in clans and happen to tarnish the gaming environment for all of us with their childish behaviors.

I'll also say that publishing a person's e-mail without their express written consent in hopes that other players write them in slander is not only unethical, it's also illegal.

In short, if this is the typical behavior of TNT clan or anyone else listed in the previous post, it's no wonder the person writing the initial e-mail finds you pathetic.

To be 100% honest with all of you, the online gaming community could use a lot of cleaning up an it's this type of melodramatic crap that stops it from happening.

Too many people treat gaming as if it were their life. That is really sad. I love to play, but when it comes right down to it, I don't feed my wife and kids by playing games. My religion does not involve an online game. When I'm old and grey lying on my death bed, I hope to god the high light of my life is not that I was a member of a popular gaming clan.

I know three of the clans he named, and speak with the CO of 1st Rangers almost weekly. I don't know of a more standup guy than Gus of 1st Rangers. He's on crack if he's accusing them or Black Duck of cheating (i won't speak for the ones i don't know).

Reading the original post makes me think "The Eye" was cheating but is begging off that cheating is just part of the game and its the people who use foul language that are the real problem. Of course if they are cursing him for cheating, well.....

Frankly, I rarely have time to chat or read chats while playing - I get fragged enough without the distractions. :D

Lol, now i gotta be looking for spam about the way we RUN our gameservers ?!?!

Yah, i dont know who Dopeless is, but i guess his name says it all.
He's right, but a lot of gamers are unversed in internet etiquette, let alone whats "legal"

Judging by the names alone, the spammer woulda been kicked from the Black Duck - lord knows we all got time to sit on the servers night after night as admins. You can't give every regularly visiting clanner admin rights ! But I tried !

sheeesh... so Maj.Woody is not only Rob from Shrapnet but he's RudeDog ?

or are my meds failing again ???

I gotta get over here more often to see the Duck's name in text !!

If the behavior of TNT bothers this guy so much, why would he continue to play? Sounds like this clown got caught red handed cheating and now wants to start a debate about gameserver etiquette...LOL. I'm sure his arm was being twisted to stay. Do some clans behave like idiots? Maybe so. Do you have to play in their server? No you don’t. Bottom line, if you don't like the behavior of the Clan or how they run their server, quit whining and go play another one; better yet, start your own. When you're shelling out your own money to run a server, then you can make whatever rules you want. As far as his warnings: He's just as likely to be talking to US Senators as he is to be talking to Santa Claus.

Dopeless, you sound like you could be the author of that email. Is this another of your aliases? Bit hypocritical to bump a 3 month old post, and then call it melodramatic crap don't you think? I would have never come across this if it wasn't for you.

I know a few of these clans mentioned and they are stand up in my book.

Just my 2.

Med's are failing, MajorWoody and RudeDog are two seperate people. But MajorWoody and Rob from Shrapnet are one!
