Explanations about removal.

Well, here I can finally explain myself.

I have been told by the Chief Tow that I have been removed from Tows group, for illegal use of the tag. (it basically is that.)

Here is how i see the rules for Tows.
**TOWTRUCK rules**

All persons who are in "!group towtrucks" MUST agree to the following rules regarding being a towtruck. The "towtrucks" group is to show the citizens who are most qualified as towtruck helpers as these guys have had alot of experience.

1. There are only allowed to be four(4) official towtrucks in track at once.
2. The users don't have to pay! But donations are always welcome.
3. Do not steal other peoples tows. Its better to ask if they need help.
4. If you see the user lagging, tow with high caution!
5. You must use a towtruck skin and on it, it has to say "towtruck". Use the official skins, get them here.
6. Your nickname must be:
Tow*»»Nick for the chief
Tow*»Nick for the dep.chief
Tow»Nick for the basic towers
nickname colours: yellow red white
towtruck team nicks are nolonger allowed
7. Anyone can tow/flip.
8. You insure the customers! If they fly out of track and loose !pitlane fee or out of bounds fee YOU send the amount of money back to them when they rejoin.
9. Being an official tower grants you the right to also tow officers that are in chase. Towers that are not in the group may not do so. However, you must be 'on duty', meaning, having the skin on and the appropriate name tag.
10. While being an on duty official tower, you must NOT steal at any time (including players, bank etc)
11. 5000km distance limit is required for becoming offical towtruck
12. You must wear offical towtruck skin while on duty as offical towtruck
So first of all, what I did wasn't written on the rules. (I'm glad I could make it be more clearer for the future, though.) So even if I was blameable for this, I couldn't even know.
Second point, if I was blameable for this, the first thing to do from the one who saw that the first, could have been to tell it to me. I'm kinda old player in here, never commited mistakes on there (on 2 years, i think its enough to be trusted, dont you?), I think you can trust me, I'm on one of the well known teams in CLC, I would have stopped there immediately.
So I felt really hurt, when I saw guys like Smacky and Conrad, that I appreciate much, otherwise I wouldn't keep playing in here, treating me as another bad child player.

That is to be said, now I know it will be a closed file soon so kthxbai.

12. You must wear offical towtruck skin while on duty as offical towtruck / right you was on your roof no 1 there to help so you think its ok to put your Tow tag on and pitlane then take it off no its not same as officers if thay do the same it happens to them to so plz you have be removed cos of that so maybe next time you will think befor doing it

Of course I thought it was ok to do it. Otherwise I wouldn't have done it !
But you can still agree with me that telling it to me first would have been the correct way to act ?

The position of Towtruck is one of trust within the server. In recognition of the contribution made by such persons they receive certain compensations that other players do not whilst they are on duty.

The example we see here is of someone abusing the power given to them. Everyone else has to !pitlane for full cost. Towtrucks whilst on duty and providing a service to others on the server are given a reduction. If we had wished for this to be a permanent reduction we would have coded it as such.

As Smacky has stated, the rules are clear... Towtrucks are to go on duty in the official skin... which was not the case. This is a clear case of someone trying to circumvent the rules by which others abide.

I have little to no sympathy.

Well I did not understand the rules like that, I would have appreciated being trusted and being told at first. Like a warning, and that would have been enough for me to understand.

i dont get how it takes 4 bans, 1 unban and some more crappy attitude to kick leander out of tow, and a good loyal person gets kicked for this without warning.

but fine, if thats the way we treat good players now..

he was warned not to argue thats why he recieved the kick when he continued .
the reason we leave this loop hole is to show trust hes not the first to be removed and probably wont be the last
if it was ok to do this surely we would have just had it coded so anyone in towtrucks had cheap pitlanes all the time ,

  5. No following cops. (kick)
  6. Speak english please. (kick)
  7. No wrecking and no revenge wrecking. (ban)
  8. No idling in server. (kick)
  9. Please, do not annoying players by begging for money/loans.
  10. Exploits to avoid fines / charges may result in a kick / ban.
take note of rule 10
exploits are left in in positions of trust to find out if people are trustworthy of advancement

Well, as seen of condition 10, I can only say I clearly made a mistake. And I have to say I only saw the TowTrucks rules so I was feeling comfy about that.
But well, I didn't have time to realize it and to say sorry so ... Nothing more can be added to this.
