I was playing a game a short while ago on the SWGO Hero Assault room, as usual, and all is going fine. I am heading back to my spawn to heal at the droid and I see a noob Yoda fighting a Dooku. I was watching to make sure that the Yoda survived. (I was heros by the way). So then a player named Voodoo comes off of the roof nearby and pushes them both down and kills the Dooku. So I tried pushing Voodoo off of the kill because it was a deliberate kill steal, that couldn't even be interpreted as a save. So I typed into the chat something along the lines of "Voodoo don't steal kills, even if its from a noob". So his response was "Push me one more time idiot" or something like that. I was going about my business because people say crap like that all the time but then there was a bot Dooku on the ground beneath him and so I pushed but it got Voodoo in the blast too because he was on the roof above. Anyway I was immediately met with a 3 day ban for excessive team pushing. Now I'm not so much here to reverse the ban, though I feel it was an overreaction. What I am here for is to see why someone with such a short fuse has admin privileges for a game server. People are going to test someones patience constantly and I don't think going from a taunting warning to a 3 day ban is exactly a proper escalation of the situation. If you could commute the ban to something that I feel would be more reasonable like an hour or 10 minutes, I would appreciate it but like I said, that's not really what I'm here for. Anyway thanks to all who read this.
