Hello. My name is Aucun. I was forwarded to this site by one of your administrators, I knew him back on a different site and community.
I'll take this time to tell you a little about myself. Most of you I do not know, but I look forward to meeting you, if you do know me then you know only one side of myself. I'm a cheater. I'm not going to lie about it or make up stories. I have played many games over the past few years, and I have tired what most of you would call cheats, I see that statement as protection barrier. If one can manipulates the code of a game made by another does he not deserve the control he gives himself? When you say someone is "cheating" in a game they are only really exploring different ways of playing the game, yet you ban them because you don't understand that... every games gets boring. No matter how many times you play a game it will always get boring. It's the human nature, we need change, we thirst for it like a wolf hunting for it meal.
The way everyone sees cheaters is black and white, good and evil. But what you really don't know it we are just like the others playing the game, we are only playing in a different way then the rest; experiencing the game in a way a normal player could only imagine. We are not criminals, nor are we the "bad" guys, we are simply players who have lost interest in the standard gameplay.
You might be thinking to yourself, we shouldn't allow cheaters on our game or on our site. That is fine if you do not want known cheaters I will be more then happy to leave, given you be nice about asking. I do not have plans to join your games and make things difficult by cheating, I'm here by request of a friend.
My history with sites and communities like yourselves goes back a long way, farther then I'm willing to admit. The last community I was a part of, and I shouldn't really say part of, more like hanging around, I got myself in a little trouble, to say the least. After a few months I decided I was done with the community and it's corrupt and impossible to follow ways, so I took things into my own hands. I joined their servers, mostly a game called C&C Renegade, and cut the last thread holding me on. I will not go into detail about what happened but I was banned, and banned and banned time again, but I keep coming back, making trouble for the moderator team, the admins and even the owner. They could not keep my banned, and probably couldn't stop the daily player harassment either, it was up to me to end what I had started.
At this point the staff of the community took notice of my actions, starting linking one clue with another and matching IP address back to a common address. My address. They warned me I would be banned and removed from all features of their community, but I ignored them, I wasn't about to let them have the last laugh while they kick me out. A few weeks past and I was still cheating in their servers, a little more discreet some days then others, until they finally put a full network ban my me.
I gave up and basically left, joining with a few others to make our own community, those others where, of all people, the staff from the community I had just been banned from. They were upset about how that community was running, they didn't find it fair or even tolerable. They had started a small community for themselves and it wasn't until one member, a former high staff member asked for my help that things started to take off. We joined our IRC's and shared other programs and game servers. This, unfortunately, did not last to long. The owner was unable to pay the bills for his server after a few members had left and returned to the community I was banned from.
We shut the community down but keep in contact hoping some day to continue what we had started.
Up to now I have been looking for a place to start over, maybe do something right this time. Maybe this would be the place, if you let me stay.
How does someone who cheats, lies and betrays become owner of a community? I don't know, but you could ask any political party and I'm sure they could tell you a million ways.
