I can't run if I am silenced, that is why I reconnected. You don't have to be so uptight over a joke.

So reconnecting several times to avoid punishment is never going to end too well. Gaugey has the full right to ban you from his server, but not from the tempus network. I realise this is not very clear, and a 'network wide' admin system is something I eventually want to move to. This would lead to a reasonably strict list of admins, but hopefully higher quality and more consistent decisions. And that isn't suggesting this ban is unfair, from what I've seen gaugey has been very reasonable in the past.

That being said, I think talking directly to him would have been a better move than a forum post.

As for the comment about someone childish being the only EU host, there are no plans right now to change this. Gaugey has been generous with the hosting, and future EU expansions would aim to be with him. The more server operators we add, the more risks we face, including random drama like this.

I don't understand how it's impossible for you to run while silenced. Sure, you're not able to use chat commands, but you can still do the same things through console (sm_command for !command). I checked earlier and the console commands still work while silenced.

... you could just accept your punishment and learn to not make stupid jokes towards this guy.
... Just shut the fuck up, accept your temporary punishment, and stop being such a whiny, immature bitch.
If you'd just accepted being silenced for a while in the first place, you could've kept jumping without any problems.
I have every right to silence, kick or ban you for any reason I choose on the server that I pay for.

I think I've heard those ideas before. Pardon my german, but I believe it went something like this:

Es muss weitergekämpft werden, es geht nicht, ihr dürft nicht handel, ihr müsst gehorchen, ihr müsst euch fügen, ihr müsst euch jeden Zwang beugen.

Jokes aside, I do want to play devil's advocate and throw in a thought or two.
Just because you have the right to manage your server as you see fit, doesn't mean it won't feel weird when a dude is censored, silenced and eventually removed because the authority enforcing his displacement didn't feel like dealing with him. People don't behead each other on the streets because someone got a bad look or felt uncomfortable/annoyed by a joke. Why is it that you couldn't resist taking an action instead of just ignoring him?
inb4 welcome to the internet, grow a pair.

I guess my point is that I don't exactly justify OP's reaction in making this thread, and following that - his behavior in the discussion, but his attitude is understandable given the fact that it's a direct translation from the normal human conditioning he and most of us here (should)have. He got rekt and it sucked for him, and when he asked why, he was confronted with aggression.

TL;DR: Just because you're right doesn't give you carte blanche to be mean.

If I don't feel like dealing you, I will just silence you. I'm not interested in anyone giving me shit while I'm trying to jump.

When did I remove him? Oh, after he rejoined to evade the silence, multiple times. So, after he removed himself?

Since when is "minor inconvenience" the same level as "brutal murder". I'm really having a hard time taking any of your arguments seriously when this is in your post.

inb4 welcome to the internet, grow a pair.

When someone, who is playing on the server I pay for, decides to attack me, joking or not, you'd advocate I just sit there and do nothing? I'm not a saint and I really don't feel like putting up with that shit.

Understandable is not the same as reasonable. He posted on here after being mildly inconvenienced and shouted at.

If people don't want to get told to fuck off, silenced, or kicked, then maybe they shouldn't cause problems for me in the first place. I'm done defending my actions.

You exaggerated the harm done to you by OP's remark, then exaggerated his confusion over his punishment making him look like a pestilence to be dealt with, then enforced a punishment that's inadequate to the crime. You took my words out of context (like taking literally a random example of conflict) to make what I say look bad so that what you say looks good. And I'm not even addressing all your points because I'm actually pressed for time, but to wrap it up - basically you force justification in everything you're questioned of by distorting the otherwise valid points that confront you... Even if that means playing the victim card by implying you were being attacked for your actions when I made it perfectly clear that I had no side, nor would pass judgement.

Gauge, you're a tyrant and I'm glad this isn't medieval times.
Psycho.

Don't provoke or annoy admins, they might have a bad day and if you get silenced, kick or anything else, don't complain like a little kid. You are the one who provoked/annoyed the admin, so you could have expected something like that coming.

Really dude?  I'm almost tempted to think this is a Stone alt trolling account.

Either way, don't insult admins.  They are providing you a free service with an expectation that you follow very easy and simple rules.  You break the rules, you risk losing that service.  If that concept doesn't fit into your worldview, good luck with the rest of your life.
