Unbanning wave

By Ovidiu Dumitru·
Hello Xtreme-Jumpers,

It's always been requested by the majority of this community, that some members should be unbanned.
These requests started to be more pronounced when the new management and staff were chosen, because once this change were made, we assured the community that we are open to suggestions and ideas, and that we embrace working alongside with you guys.

This is why we have decided to give a new chance at reintroducing them into our community, because after all, this is why they were banned in the first place: to reflect upon what they did wrong and hopefully one day have them beside us once again.

Some of them will be fully unbanned, while others will still have restrictions from certain departments, depending on the nature of their penalty. However if in the following months, after monitoring them closely we will see fit to fully unban them as well, we will do it. Again, however, this is not a certainty and will depend on their actions.

Read the extended newspost for further details on whom was unbanned and how.

Slowmotion ofcourse

22/01/2014 01:18:00

Congratulations for the best comment of the newspost :-)

22/01/2014 00:16:00

Lol .. Seen Bibo online few minutes ago.Cant say the news is either bad or good.Looks good though.Waiting for new demos from Napz though.. maybe soon.

22/01/2014 00:28:00

he is still demo banned unfortunately, hopefully in the future though!

22/01/2014 00:27:00

making a big fuss about unbans like they are saints

22/01/2014 01:30:00

but kafds IS a saint

22/01/2014 00:32:00

kafdskafdskafdskafdskagdfdsaskafds!

22/01/2014 00:44:00

mmmm dunno

22/01/2014 01:06:00

omg the gods gave mercy the people have to know !

22/01/2014 01:15:00

I've been expecting you.

22/01/2014 03:13:00

good choice

22/01/2014 04:16:00

These, my friends, are some good news.

22/01/2014 17:41:00

Glad to see you still on. I really miss those days back then.

22/01/2014 04:30:00

I don't know what's more funny. The unnecessary unbans or the banned people posting within an hour after 3 or more years of ban.

22/01/2014 09:48:00

i insist u unban me on steam but you dont need to write a news for it, thanks. your dear mr. Knoxville

22/01/2014 05:04:00

Hole feck, welcome back.

22/01/2014 05:48:00

The people who was full banned for cheat and now only banned for submitting demos is IMO useless for them. Its not like they cant do anything new they couldnt do before, other than do it with the nick they are actually known for lol. But gratz i guess, even tho some of the unbans are totally useless imo.

22/01/2014 06:47:00

I, for one, am glad to be unbanned after all this time despite having no real intentions or ambitions to become an active member of the community again due to my diminished interest for the game itself. This unban signifies an absolution for the sins I foolishly committed in the past and grants me the freedom to once again enter the ranks of God's holiest angels. I intend to abide by the rules and not engage in any sacrilegious activities or commit any transgressions. To yourdaddy: according to the latest scientific research in the field of psychology, even the most deranged psychopath is capable of feeling empathy if he or she so desires. I implore you to reach deep down within your soul to access your humane side and to not act upon your threat. After all, what is the best result you can achieve with such actions? Achieving any goal with malevolent actions corrupts the end result; the goal is not the only thing of importance, the journey towards your final destination is just as important (or even more so). To koukouz: there are a lot of games in Steam and therefore multiple reasons to be logged into Steam. Some of us have made great friends in this wonderful game and we've stayed in touch even though our subjects of interest may have changed over time. I haven't been nearly as active a Counter-Strike player as I was prior to my ban and I didn't even bother to log into Steam for months after the CS update which was responsible for some problematic FPS-adjustments etc., but in the end I logged into Steam just to talk to some of my old buddies from the game rather than for the game itself. These buddies also informed me about the unban. To chrizZo: I am delighted to see you're still around and still armed with that beautiful and powerful avatar. Your valiance has meant a lot to me even though I haven't voiced my appreciation for it before. Your intelligent and humorous approaches to certain conundrums have always been highly enjoyable to follow. I'm glad someone who I have great respect for finds joy in the return of this humble, lowly man. To knoxville (and Flibo): I consider the overt and ostentatious glorification of any person or people for any action they have performed an unwelcomed behaviour. Raising a person—be that a movie star, a professional athlete, a "hero" or whatever—to a pedestal and praising them for their supposed greatness is rather sickening, to be honest. People shouldn't be idolized in such a way, and creating such impossible-to-achieve figures of adoration through any medium is simply wrong. One may first think about the standards of beauty set by the media as one of these mind-distorting idolizations, but society has created tons of them. However, I don't really feel like there was anything like that going on in this occasion; there were unbans and people were informed about the situation. Some may consider these matters rather trivial, but others may be interested and find value in such news. The interest can be negative or positive, but I think it's the right decision to inform the users about executive-level decisions and to work openly rather than in secrecy. And yes, I am indeed a saint. To CyclopP and other administrators: thank you on my behalf. I have occasionally visited the site and checked what has been going on here despite having been banned, but I haven't been able to participate in any activities in the website even though there have been some situations where I would've gladly partaken. It's great to have the freedom to take part again, even though I'm not active in the Kreedz community/the game anymore.

22/01/2014 07:14:00

And the "mothafucka" is back with a bang :D I have been long waiting for your return to XJ. Damn ! I missed your long posts with over the top words. I dont care whether you are active in the scene or not, just get your ass back into the discussions. I am really, really , really very happy to see you back <3

22/01/2014 16:54:00

Welcome back dear Kafds :))))))))

22/01/2014 22:20:00

I love you!

22/01/2014 07:24:00

[b]NAPZ, Nikita & Lolz[/b] I'm really very glad that you people got unbanned. I hope you are allowed to submit demos as well in near future. You are all superb kreedzers and I am eager to see you back in action. [b]kunqui[/b] You are an awesome person, at least you have been very nice to me in the past. I just hope you'll keep your rage under control this time and show the community the great person you really are. Looking forward to see some action in the WR sectiona s well :) Rest of the guy who have been unbanned, I'm happy for you guys. Stay clean, Keep Calm and Go Pro :gj: All in all, a good move on the part of management. I am proud of you guys...

22/01/2014 08:00:00

After 6 years Bibo did it!

22/01/2014 08:28:00

LOLZ! but why Nikita? rofl

22/01/2014 09:49:00

bibo kafds kunqui.

22/01/2014 10:04:00

Bibo :D , come back :)

22/01/2014 10:13:00

Haha, really great news. I am eager to become a witness of any of the following changes ^^ Btw, once again props to CyclopP :)

22/01/2014 10:42:00

Welcome back guys, indeed great news. :)

22/01/2014 10:52:00

Bibo, kafds, Don't like NAPZ that much cuz of is personality but nice to see, they're unbanned :)

22/01/2014 10:53:00

You really were lazy writing this newspost, werent you ? :D "3)Argentina kunqui Reason: Constant offensive and disturbive behavior Status: Commentban Since: 2012 New status: full unban, despite the fact his violations are posting related, but it's been a long time since 2011" This part is copied from above. Anyway ... the thing I dont agree with : -Bibo has been banned since 2008, after 6 years he is unbanned. -WOOF has been banned since 2013, after half an year he is unbanned. .... that's silly. KAFDS I'M GLAD YOU'RE BACK

22/01/2014 12:03:00

WOOF.exe is still commentbanned.

22/01/2014 10:54:00

This is the reason I'm against permanent bans, they are pointless if they arent what they claim to be, "permanent". They should just be plain bans that are active as long as the administrators see fit. Anyways pretty interesting move Cyclopp, I'm glad to see some of them back and hopefully we'll see this benefiting the community in a positive manner rather than allowing old cheaters to come back and try to breach the system once again. However, welcome back guys!

22/01/2014 11:08:00

Oh yeah another thing, unbanning WOOF is in my opinon just showing how tolerant XJ really is to trolls, especially since it's been like what? 5 months since he last soiled the website with his "behaviour"

22/01/2014 12:23:00

Hence the word tolerance.

22/01/2014 13:39:00

pardon?

22/01/2014 11:56:00

omfg drewbie banned for 6 years , welcome back dude if u r still alive

22/01/2014 14:25:00

drewbiE won't ever be back, he's moved on lol

22/01/2014 12:03:00

and where is odealo? best longjumper ever and still banned for nothing lmao <3 xj

22/01/2014 12:29:00

And StarWars^

22/01/2014 12:20:00

Hooray \o/

22/01/2014 22:24:00

Nice to see you back bro :)

23/01/2014 01:45:00

Thanks buddy :)

22/01/2014 12:39:00

hi, just thought i'd clear some misconceptions about my ban. actually i got banned in 2009 for a simple jump;wait script because I believed other wr holders cheated (something I still believe), so I have no regrets there. Will I "cheat" again though? Nah, I realized it's better not to have wrs at all than cheated ones, hence all the wrs under the nick sooshka were 100% clean (so it's a little misleading saying "sooshka" cheated but understandble since the person is the same but nicks are different). In any case I lost about 90% of the fun in the game so wrs will probably not be something I care about anyway. :)

22/01/2014 12:55:00

Awesome, I'm really happy about because of this news. Congratulations guys :)

22/01/2014 13:06:00

This is one of the best news I've ever read on XJ! But imo people like lolz, napz... should be able to record demos again 'cause that was/is their real purpose on this community. However, its better than nothing.

22/01/2014 13:17:00

Next step: make the cheaters head admins or democheckers so the team will be complete.

22/01/2014 13:26:00

That comment was completly unnecessary :)

22/01/2014 13:48:00

your existence on this site is completely unnecessary

22/01/2014 13:29:00

that already happened some time ago.

22/01/2014 16:44:00

for really this community is just getting worse!!! enjoy cheaters, u may sell cheats as well u know you'll get unbaned anyways NIKITA ? cheater since forever and got cought MANY times ON MANY communities I MEAN WOW GJ HEAD ADMINDS really mature and..... i just cant express how mad i am, worst headadmins

22/01/2014 13:30:00

napz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 :)

22/01/2014 13:32:00

and this is how xj ends!

22/01/2014 13:59:00

why? :D The only 1 suspisious one is still nikita. Sorry :D

22/01/2014 14:20:00

Why am I the more suspicious one? :> I'm not the only cheater who got unbanned.

22/01/2014 23:14:00

so your still a cheater? just kidding ;)

22/01/2014 14:44:00

lol

22/01/2014 15:02:00

Welcome back guys! Alas! NAPZ may now roam among his intercessors. I sense a foretoken indicating that one day the legend will be freed to once again find solace in soaring above the rest, as do the doves. Also, I look forward to reading kafds's captivating posts!

23/01/2014 20:43:00

Ninja, how dare you forgot on Bibo! Great decision fellas!

22/01/2014 15:06:00

nice ... but as other people said above , don't get the point of unbaning napz if he's banned from sending demos , he's one of the greatest bhoppers and would be fun to see him doing some sick wrs . but this is good anyway

22/01/2014 15:27:00

i think that unbanning players who consciously and deliberately cheated tells quite a lot about one's morals. why would you roll out the red carpet for such people and welcome them, especially on a gaming community. that's beyond me. however, im really glad to see some so called trolls back in here. especially kafds. hopefully the forums wont be as dull as it's been lately.

22/01/2014 16:02:00

Bibo :o

22/01/2014 17:04:00

kunqui :D

22/01/2014 17:10:00

woof HI unban phantometry pls <3 hue hue

22/01/2014 19:08:00

Hi Sky <3

22/01/2014 19:23:00

Nevah, please.

22/01/2014 17:17:00

desperate measures to revive the community?

22/01/2014 17:34:00

omg...welcome back cheaters and trolls..why not just remove the warnings/banlist, since it doesn't matter anymore :)

22/01/2014 17:49:00

O_O

22/01/2014 17:56:00

Unbanned cheater, welcome back with a new cheat :D

22/01/2014 18:12:00

unban LyNn

28/01/2014 05:06:00

No in All

22/01/2014 18:34:00

Tbh the NAPZ demo ban is kinda useless,since it's the same like it was before,but its good that he has a chance of getting unbanned,some unbans are deserved some are not,there is nothing you can do about it so chill.

22/01/2014 19:18:00

Bibo finally "did it"! For real this time :P

22/01/2014 19:49:00

It's pathetic. When these guys in the list above were banned almost everybody was complaining and whinning for a change. Now, some time later, when the long-awaited change had arrived people started talking about the miserable end of XJ... These people, I belive, got unbanned after a serious discussion in the admin area. Not just by random picks... Therefore it is absolutely unnecessary to post LyNn-related jokes and whatsoever. It's at least something different, might be a positive thing, who knows.. time will show. The community might revive some of its old activity.

22/01/2014 20:46:00

You see what's the matter. When people were creating threads with unbanning content those threads were teeming with supporters of this idea while another part that is against and which is most likely bigger preferred to save their word. And since the new management is for maintaining position of majority, appropriate measures have been taken. Is it any wonder that people react like this? Your decisions are impeached, no matter if you make or don't make changes.

23/01/2014 02:44:00

good point, kiddo :)

22/01/2014 20:15:00

@nobody^ you think it's normal when ppl like bibo have been banned for smth like 5/6 years and some other guys who got perm ban like months ago and they have been unbanned in same time ? I no offence you but one guy like woof who got banned for troll/insult/retard from differents website and he is unbanned after couple of month it's kinda pathetic. ( I hope you have understand my poor english :D )

22/01/2014 21:41:00

I get your point, SlimShady, but it's basically another chance for woof. The easiest part of all is to ban him again if he screws up. I know that other people were given second chances in the past, so this is absolutely the same. :)

22/01/2014 22:53:00

This are really great news! I would like to see odealo unbanned too.If you gave a second chance yo nikita(who cheated 12352 times) then you should give him too...

23/01/2014 13:55:00

and got caught on each community like every month at least once sure, if faker was here... does he even know what u guys do to this community?

22/01/2014 23:39:00

The amount of analpains in this newpost is overwhelming

22/01/2014 23:59:00

there is always a certain arbitariness in the nature of such actions, but i think its very unlikely this could harm the community. since many people pleaded for unbanning the listed users its nice to see xj trys to be less rigid about this than back in the day... in the end its a simple risk-benefit calculation, kinda reminds me once again how XJ is a good analogy for a dictatorship. thats exciting to follow, besides beeing part of the community

23/01/2014 00:06:00

Nice to see all these ppl back : )

23/01/2014 07:27:00

I'm not for or against these unbans, for one I'm one of the people unbanned. I honestly didn't know I was unbanned until pizza told me in steam chat. This community has long been dying and these changes don't make anything more or less active that it is in it's current state. Yes I to a certain extent was active and tried to make the forums as active as it could be regardless of what I was posting (trolling or not). The reasoning behind these unbans are too little too late. It has been 3 1/2 years since I was last banned and I would maybe check the website every 5-6 months depending on if I was feeling like looking at XJ's own demise. The steps to prevent this weren't taken when they should have been. There were many opportunities that were up that were never taken that could have possibly livened this place up. The activity won't change, no one is going to come back and pretend like they want to post here and try to make things happen. For the people complaining about the unbans. What exactly are you complaining about? Are you complaining that these cheaters will again submit demos that are clearly cheated when a lot of the time, there are still people in this community that cheat and will possibly never be proven to be cheaters. Are you complaining that I will come back and troll the already dead forums. I have no intention of coming back and trying to populate this website. For me, it died a long time ago, when thopa was banned.

23/01/2014 20:12:00

You are so right about that. Banning Thopa was in my opinion the biggest mistake xj has ever made.

23/01/2014 17:06:00

People who were banned for insulting they deserve unban the others should stay banned for ever.And ur right plague there are even cheaters in XJ staff lol "swedish" ppl such a shame since Sweden always had legendary players DHT- , zhady.

23/01/2014 17:33:00

Where were you, the guys who don't agree with the unbanning of all these guys, when the old administration was taking constant hits from people wanting the unban of the same guys that got unbanned now? Why didn't you defend the administration if you really think they were doing the right thing by keeping them banned? I didn't see any of you arguing with the other side, like you are doing now, in this loud manner... For you, this is just an opportunity news, so others can see that "you really care for this community". What a shame...

23/01/2014 18:58:00

do u gonna unban odealo?

23/01/2014 18:27:00

Unbann Itachi

23/01/2014 21:31:00

unbann all

23/01/2014 23:24:00

some great news! im really glad you're back kafds!!! and im waiting for napz's demos as soon as possible :D

28/01/2014 05:09:00

Good news. Maybe.
