The bear calvary picture was made by someone, I don't remember, by using a real picture (You can see the watermark to the site on it still).

As to where I find them, there's a multitude of sites with them. Just google "motivational posters"

#1. Why do you think you got banned? I know why I got banned, I got banned for Teamkilling someone but I have a reason for it, but still I shouldn't of done it. Basically this is what happened. The map was Kubra Dam, and I wanted to try out a jet, since I am farely new to the game, so I let a guy go first becuase he was there first, his name was trigger happy, so Im waiting at the jet spawn for literally 10 minutes becuase thats how long it took for him to die, and I saw a message from someone saying "Tell me if someone is hogging the choppers or jets". After TriggerHappy died I was like "Yes I finally get to fly" He runs back to the jet spawn, Im typing "Trigger Stop hogging the jets" and right before I press enter, jet spawns he hopps in and I just got mad, becuase I was standing there for a long time. He knew I was waiting there for a long time to. So I pull out the rocket launcher and let it fire right at him and it tked him. He then asked if there was an admin in the server and told him that I Tked him and someone else, which was a lie becuase I only tked him. I know I shouldnt of TKed him and I know I should of been helping my squad take objectives but I just wanted to try the jet once. Thats exactly what happened.
(Sorry for this one question, just wanted to put everything in there)

#2. What admin do you believe banned you? What admins were there playing?
Honestly I have no idea. I wasn't looking for what admins were on. My BF2 Stats page is http://bf2s.com/player/99849514/

#3. Why should you be unbanned? I should of took the time to tell the admin in the server what he has been doing insted of just teamkilling him, becuase that doesnt solve anything. This is actually the very first time I teamkilled someone on purpose, all other team kills I have done was accidents and Im a honest person.

#4. A written statement that you will refrain from doing anything that will get you banned again. Keep in mind, you are now on the short list of people needing to be banned. Even a minor slip-up will get you back in the hole.
I am very sorry for teamkilling in the server, I wont do it again becuase I have alot of fun on the server becuase theres alot of teamplay. The reason I play in this server alot is that its about the only server that actually has some good teamplay in it, I wish I had not of done this becuase its a great server filled with a mature community and everyone follows the rules and thats what makes this server so great. I relize now that If I wanted to fly a jet then I could of done it in a empty server or tried it in a practice server which was just suggested to me on Teamspeak.

Linage66,

Thanks for posting.

Please understand that TTP does not enforce first come, first serve for airplanes. Other servers might do that, but we don't.

You are correct that you should have been helping your team instead of waiting for the jet. Teamplay is rigorously enforced on our servers. And, as you now know, we have zero tolerance for TKing.

The banning admin should be here within a day or so to address the particulars of your situation. It's a holiday weekend so please exercise patience.

I do not have any part of this process, therefore I should probably not be typing, but I just had to comment.....

This is probably the 1st post that I have seen in a long time that the requestor wrote in complete sentences and was able to coherently convey an idea or concept. If I were evenly split as to whether or not to unban you, your ability to communicate effectively would tilt the balance in your favor. I know people who get banned probably don't read prior unban requests, but yours would be a good example for others to follow.

On another personal note, I play 2142, so we may be a little different over there. How does waiting 10 minutes for a jet help your team? Don't answer that, its rhetorical and not germane. Something to ponder while you wait for your admin to show up.

Linage66,
I am the admin that banned you.
First, thank you for coming to the forum to resolve this. I can see from your posts that you understand it was wrong and why it was wrong. I can also see that you want to be a team player as well as a Texas ...Teamplayer...
I also appreciate your honesty and your complete explanation of the situation. It is exactly as you said. I was standing there when it happened.
As you may have gathered by now, TTP has no line for jets. No one owns a tank or an apc. We strongly frown upon people act childish, who hurt the team, and who do not consider what is right in the server. If you are new to the TTP server then I can imagine you might be a bit disoriented with the fact that we insist folks squad up and follow orders. I can also understand that not every server allows things like no lines for jets, attacking uncaps, doing whatever you have to do to help your team win. But you are here and you have to understand our expectations.
Your actions hurt the team. Your actions hurt another player's efforts to help the team. Your actions showed that you wanted to take out one of the team's best pilots so you could fly for awhile. That is a bunch of "you"s and not a lot of ...Teamplayer...
We scramble for vehicles and air assets at the start of a round and we sometimes wrestle around in the hangars to get jets. The regular players on this server usually let the first crew that gets those air assets run with it for the game as long as they are effective. They usually squad up, they communicate, and they work as a team and as part of the team. For example, the player you teamkilled usually tries to squad up with the other pilots and coordinate his actions with theirs. Do you do that?
This post is not to chew you out or make an example of you. You have admitted your mistake and you were honest. The matter is over and up to admin vote. You just need to understand the way things work here. We work hard to assure that players get the best opportunity to play as a team without all the other things that make other public servers a nightmare to play on.
Your reaction to the ban has earned you some respect with some of us. If you are unbanned, you must follow through and show that you mean what you typed. We will hold you to that. There are rarely second chances for second offenses.
I will vote to unban you. I hope to see you on the server soon and squad up with you to WIN!
Joe

thank you for your patience, Your ban has been Removed and you may join the server...

Resolved.
