Story Flames on the sand

This is a story about my experience of McBrawl, and how I and lots of other people see it now. I will use my own name, but I will change the names of everybody else in the story, so you'd have to be pretty clever to figure out who's who. Enjoy. Or don't.











One day, a player named tallscot joined the server of McBrawl. He loved it so much, he played and played, and the community was fantastic! No raging, no flame, everything was pitch perfect, until he got a little bored of it. He then quit for around 5 months. Later on, while browsing his servers, he found McBrawl, so he joined it, and lots of things had changed. Clans had been added for instance, but the main change was the community wasn't as great. tallscot found that people flamed in the chat every 3 minutes, insulted one another, and just overall made the game crap. He then vowed to receive moderator on the server, so he could help and stop all of the flame.

6 months later, he applied for moderator. He had matured a ton, he was active on the three elements (In-Game, Forums, Teamspeak), and he was overall a kind person. His application lasted around a week, and he was finally accepted. He was triumphant, and then he vowed to make a server a better place.

Some might've said he did a great job as a moderator. Most, however, would've said otherwise. This didn't bother him though, as he had learned over the ages that players were going to flame at the moderators. However, he then learned of a coder named XxGameknightxX. Gameknight seemed great at the time, as he did so much for the servers. He seemed to have coded lots of servers, and made the servers a better place.

However, he only made the servers a great place. Yet, he made the community worse.

tallscot had been a moderator on Brawl for about a month, and he was doing a fine job, at least, in his eyes. Then, he and Gameknight got into a heated argument. Gameknight insulted tallscot in many different ways, and tallscot was shocked to see a coder act so poorly. tallscot then started realizing different traits of different staff members. Some of the admins were biased, such as DJRider47, and there was another coder who couldn't take any criticism, who went by the name of 777rockedit. These people made it hard for tallscot to do his job, as they were always criticizing him, and sometimes not always him. In the end, it was Gameknight who did the most damage, and tallscot was tired of being a staff member on a server so poorly managed, behavior wise. He then resigned, leaving his vow behind.


Several months later, tallscot got into WarZ. He played and played, and soon became addicted. The community was far worse now, and tallscot was still hung up on how immature a lot of the staff was. Later on, he then heard of a new team made up of several WarZ staff members called Team Righteous. Righteous seemed okay at first, but then tallscot realized that having a team made up of so many moderators is a bad idea, because that doesn't leave much room for the moderators to spread out. tallscot tried telling everybody this, and even got a few on his "side". But nevertheless, the admins did nothing about it.

Spoiler: Team Righteous

tallscot decided to play more WarZ, and as the community got worse, so did a lot of the staff. They started to not answer any questions, because they were in the middle of a fight, and this annoyed a lot of people because staff are expected to answer people's questions, no matter what they're doing. tallscot tried to warn the admins, but they didn't seem to care.

But then, a moderator called Gr8m8 was caught on video performing a "ride-along", which is teaming with a hacker. The rules are, if somebody is caught teaming with a hacker, not only the hacker got banned, but the player who was teaming with him received a 3 day ban. However, if a staff member was performing the ride along, then he would've been demoted, and banned for 3 days as well (tallscot still wasn't sure about the banning part). But, when the player who posted the video posted it in the chat, the admin DJrider47 decided to delete his chat post, even though he saw the video. DJrider47 kept Gr8m8 at his moderator status, even though he saw him break the rules.

Then, a lot of tallscot's main friends left (I'm not going to bother replacing these with fake names). Such as, @tdaddy14, @Pegleg98, @NMHRODMANISBEST, @Credo007lv, and a whole lot of other people who left for the same reason: The staff was now crap. And only on WarZ, too. The one server who's moderators are based up with the admins and coder's friends. Other players called this biased. tallscot called it that too, but, he also called it hypocritical. Stupid. Ridiculous. Unfair.

Then, at that moment, tallscot realized that the higher staff members are a flame, burning bright, never going to die out. This may seem positive for some people, but in this case, where the WarZ staff are this bad, it wasn't. Compared to the players, the grains of sand, they were gods.

This entire server is based off of, one thing.

Flames prancing on the sand.
