	Hi,</p>
<p>
	I took the time to register and&nbsp;write this to report a very&nbsp;bad playing moment on your server this evening. Two kids, respectively named&nbsp;Willy_w4nker and&nbsp;mister_muffin from [ECG] clan&nbsp;ruined everything. Here&#39;s a&nbsp;summary of what they did all game long,&nbsp;either in their&nbsp;team or not.</p>
<ul>
	<li>
		Ramming everything they could</li>
	<li>
		Roll over&nbsp;everyone with the&nbsp;vehicules (mostly jeeps)</li>
	<li>
		Fire at chopper&nbsp;with tank on spawn&nbsp;point</li>
	<li>
		Steal assets</li>
	<li>
		Do everything&nbsp;possible to kill their own teammates, and yes, they succeeded many times</li>
	<li>
		Spam chat box with offensive and disrespectful&nbsp;talk</li>
</ul>
<p>
	That&#39;s what I&nbsp;remember, they surely did more&nbsp;that I&nbsp;didn&#39;t see /&nbsp;noticed.</p>
<p>
	Briefly,&nbsp;for the sanity of your server and to keep&nbsp;players&nbsp;(normal ones) enjoying your server, they need a permanent&nbsp;ban.</p>
<p>
	thank you for reading and taking&nbsp;action.</p>

Being upfront is the best policy. <br />
