[[TC] Brad]

It's frustrating to see another topic involving Dino on the same topic; I hoped this would be put to bed a few weeks ago.

1) Tricking a COP, prematurely threatening a report
As Dino said, this is now resolved. I don't see that this requires any action.

2) Provoking & causing accidents
Looking at the roundabout incident first, I think we can all agree Dino had the right of way. However, i'm more interested in this from the perspective of harassing / provoking. Dino clearly had planned to put himself into a position where a crash was likely, with the intention to threaten a report when/if any collision occurred.

Looking at the chat-logs, this is clear:

2016-02-07 18:56:45 UTC [TT] Dino : !l seen my mission? xD
2016-02-07 18:56:57 UTC [TT] Dino : !l going into RB when AD comes, but I have right of way

Note: We do not, as normal course, review/monitor !l & !ch messages, but we have the ability to do so if a user is reported in order to fairly judge the situation

Now, I thought I was clear when this topic was brought up previously in a UR, Dino. For sake of trying (hoping) to re-enforce the point:

Brad @ previous UR Wrote:What personally annoys me, and has been an internal discussion point in recent weeks within TC, is the community involvement in this case. Not only does it create a hostile atmosphere, it serves no constructive purpose. Unless you have evidence of someone being guilty, the sensible thing to do is assume innocence.

Ultimately, from a community and game-play point of view, it doesn’t matter a huge amount to you, as long as the player is following the rules. The real impact of ban-evading is on us as it undermines the rules and the admins; for that reason, if/when we have evidence, we treat it extremely seriously.

If, despite me being very clear, you continue to harass and generally make sarcastic / immature comments about the situation then i'm not sure what you're expecting us to do. I encouraged you to provide evidence to link UC's activity to Mr AD but you could not / did not. Instead you decided to continue with the same behaviour.

What you need to remember, Dino, is that this is a community. In my opinion you are not acting in a way that is in the spirit of a community what-so-ever.

Thanks for the report, UC. Dino has been banned for 14 days.
