    Exclamation Name Change Ban WTF???

    Can someone explain WHY you would ban a player for changing nick in-game??? THIS IS COMMON AND BENIGN!!! I, as many have, changed nicks mid-game, and is not generally considered any sort of issue. Of course I was not cheating; playing crud weapons with lamer skills... WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS??? *sigh* I simply ask for the Admin to unban, but I also ask for an explanation WHY I would be banned for this action, without ANY indication that Fragmasters would do such a thing WITH NO WARNING. There is NO indication ANYWHERE that this is "unacceptable". (I always read the rules VERY carefully anywhere I play, tyvm) Wouldn't it be much simpler, instead of scouring the forums for an un-ban plea, to instead NOT engage in such things in the first place? I'm genuinely curious as to your motives. Thanks in advance, FM are my all-time favorite servers, and this is just a punch in the nose to your dedicated players base.

    We need your steamid to unban

    Also it's a thing because there is a common trend of hackers on the server changing name to other players' to avoid getting votebanned.

    Thanks for that explanation- you know, that never occurred to me, maybe because I don't roll that way? LOL

    Sometimes just a fun thing to do, but something I rarely do ingame.

    ..and that's EXACTLY what I'm going to do too! (per session, anyway ) Thank you all, for the infos and such. Sorry if I sounded a little heated, but I was! I've NEVER been banned from any server on any game anywhere ever, this is the first LOL (except that time I posted Pony on the "wrong" board in 4chan, but I asked for that). Looking forward to playing on the best TF2 servers still alive
