Fellow community members,
I'd like to get your input on the behavior of Captain Ron, who's recently switched to playing as The Cream.
During the past couple of years he's managed to crank up his annoying chat spam to 11.
His claims are still as bizarre and baseless as ever and yet he keeps poisoning the atmosphere on the servers every. single. time. he. plays.
Ron, this is the appropriate place for you to express your grievances.
Community members, please share your opinions and PLEASE weigh in on the poll so we can figure out what to do about it.
Cheers,
certainly not your mom
Captain Ron

Re: Captain Ron
as you wrote the guy is a well known shit talker like various other. I think I already banned him a few times in the past so given the circumstances he can probably be chat banned again.

Re: Captain Ron
Perm chat ban? Come on guys, touch grass.
Ron talks a lot, sure, but he never even curses or drops f-words apart from "fix it". Compare that to the meltdown squad (Fran, Ricky, Junkie, Mr. K, etc.) who actually spew genuine toxicity into the chat. If you're handing out muzzles, start with the people throwing real abuse, not the guy who just complains politely.
The guy is literally playing from the US with 120+ ms ping. Anyone who's played high ping knows how miserable non-unlagged rockets and ghost rails feel, so yeah, he cries about hit registration ("4 rails hit, 1 registered, fix it") and calls anyone hitting insane shots a bot. That's not "poisoning the community," that’s just standard 2000s boomer-shooter venting.
Love him or hate him, Ron actually knows Quake mechanics inside out and he's explained game/netcode quirks like the lag cheat that most people here don't even know exist.
He’s basically part of the server furniture at this point. Handing him a perm ban over some harmless chat complaints is wild. With how small the active Q3 scene is, driving away dedicated regulars over mild venting makes absolutely zero sense. If he gets muzzled and decides to pack up and play elsewhere, I honestly won't blame him. And he probably won't be the only one moving on.
Vote 3.
