Sexual Harassment Panda, between 11:40pm and 12am GMT (3:40-4pm Pacific, 6:40-7pm Eastern) on the 27th August 2009, crashed the server after an argument ensued between him and CLeeL on the Yukon Control Points map.

Sexual Harassment Panda began berating him for his "uselessness" in not knowing the map and not taking the point despite the fact CLeeL stated when he logged in that this was his first time on the Yukon map. Tensions rose and eventually Panda threatened to crash the server, before the server did crash around 12 seconds after his threat. Everyone who played during this time can attest to this.

I don't know how to make a demo, I don't have a screenshot of the event, but I do have the testimony of anyone who was playing this match at the time.
I do not know if crashing the server is against the rules here, but what I do know is in the rules is "don't be a dick", and in my opinion, crashing the server and ruining everyone's fun, is MASSIVE dickery.

Anyone who was playing at this time, plese add to this thread your thoughts on the subject or at least confirm Sexual Harassment Panda crashed the server, if you want.

I feel like I recognize that name. You happen to catch the steamID?

SteamID is retrieved by typing 'status' (without quotes) into console.

Crashing our server is quite bannable.

There's these two entries in our hlstats

http://tempest.hlstatsx....erinfo&player=20667
http://tempest.hlstatsx.com/hlstats.php?mode=playerinfo&player=893

The difference is capitalization. If you can ID him, we'll get him gone.

One of those says it doesn't exist. The other says he was in the server today. So, i'm guessing that's the one you need. Also...that one has VAC bans on record according to his steam page.

Sorry...this is the one i was looking at http://tempest.hlstatsx....erinfo&player=39714

Both of the links you gave were people who haven't connected to tempest in a while and are listed as "Not Active"

Yep you got the right guy since the last map listed is in Yukon and his name had spaces between words.
Sorry for not doing this properly, it's my first time reporting such a thing, especially for not having screenshots, I kinda got confused and was amazed he did it, and I have no clue how to make a demo even after reading the rules on reporting something like this.

All I have is my word and the words of others who were on the Yukon map at that time, though I can only remember a few names of who was on there.
Again sorry if I've reported this in an incorrect fashion.
