Avicus Archive

To all TeamSpeak Users. Please read. by tel6331 September 13, 2014 at 10:09 AM UTC

Okay, so there has been a lot of talk about DDOS recently on the TeamSpeak server. Some people have been talking about it in a joking fashion, however, some others have been using it as a threat and a form of harassment. I would like to announce that speaking of DDOS in the team speak can now be punishable since I have had multiple players come and talk to me about being scared or even quitting Avicus because of this. We don't want to be a hostile community but after giving this some thought, it has brought a negative impact and a stormy cloud onto the community iteself. We want to be a friendly community. This is now, frankly unacceptable. 

So to sum up, all threats about ddosing, ddosing itself, or "booting somebody off" is now forbidden in TeamSpeak unless you have some issues regarding possibly being ddosed yourself. The act of talking about this can result in a tempban of around 1 week or more depending on the severity of the situation. However ddosing itself will be a perm ban no question.

If i find users are evading these rules, action will be taken no matter who you are.

Understood, thanks for clearing this up. Hopefully the new enforcement will resolve or at least minimise some of the issues we have had lately.

Noted, thanks for the clarification.

So because some kids can't use the internet properly, you can't have a free conversation?

So because some people are immature, people aren't even allowed to have a conversation regarding the matter anymore?

Alright.. Good to know.. i guess

some people take it too far and take advantage of the rules

MustardMan227 September 13, 2014 at 12:09 PM UTC

I understand all of this. But I agree with Gibbo a little bit. Just cause people were being stupid and immature does that mean we can't even talk about the matter?

Bunkie September 13, 2014 at 12:09 PM UTC

ddos is illegal, if there is any way you can find their name with /seen etc, you could trace the ip (thats legal) and report them to their local authorities

Yes it does mean that. Because some people act immaturely about this matter, you all have it taken away. We can't just let some talk about it while others can. It's not how it works.

Titan16 September 13, 2014 at 1:09 PM UTC

I'll now be enforcing these rules as well. Thanks for clearing things up.

uhh. what is teamspeak and DDOS? sorry, i haven't got a full knowledge of the fancy abbreviations yet in Minecraft :/

tel6331 September 13, 2014 at 1:09 PM UTC

TeamSpeak is something where you can talk to people on. It's where some Avicus members talk while they play there games. You will find me in there quite a lot too if you want to talk to me about something. You have to download it from the interent first though.

DDOS is where someone sends you a bunch of information which can temporarily disable your internet or even perm disable it if it is that bad. But I can assure you that it wont happen.

I think its ok doing this cause somehow many people are afraid of this, but I think its unfair that people can't talk about what they want to.

Out of interest, 18+ Channel should not be for little kids. Can we at least have some freedom to talk about what we want in it?

In some cases if someone ddosed someone else if could turn into the police getting involved. Ddos is against the law and isn't tolerated in most countries.
