[UK]IsolatedRP [M9K][50k Start] 185.38.148.140:27115

The first review on this website!

Well it's a shame we have to get off to such a negative start, I recently joined this server hoping to do a review but it came to an abrupt end! So lets talk about the server at first.

The server is called Isolated RP and its IP is 185.38.148.140:27115 if you want to join.

I joined the server and took a couple of screenshots of spawn for you to see.

As you can see it's a pretty standard DarkRP server spawn, 2D/3D Signs around welcoming the players and some other information about the server. We also notice immediately that on this server we have a levelling system which although is unpopular for some is started to be used on a lot more DarkRP servers to add a RPG aspect to it.

This server also had pointshot and a whole array of other addons including TDM cars, I forgot to list the server addons which will be done next time for other server reviews.

Here are the staff members that were online during this time I have removed mine and other users from these reports.

# userid name                uniqueid            connected ping loss state

ID Name                            Group
2  IRP Hannah                      headadmin
4  IRP Goofy                       superadmin
5  IRP munchlax                    superadmin
6  IRP Fordy                       superadmin

I then decided that I would inform the staff that I'm reviewing the server, THe mistake that would cost the review dearly, Here is the chatlog.
(OOC) Combine-Soldier: Hi I would like to do a review on this server if that's alright?
(OOC) IRP Fordy: No fuck off hahahah

I was then kicked by the same staff member who was ranked superadmin

6  IRP Fordy                       superadmin

Disconnect: Kicked by IRP Fordy(STEAM_0:1:77500037) (fuck off).

I then rejoined the server, Wondering why I was kicked I was then met by this in the chat.

(OOC) IRP munchlax: can i do it?

(OOC) IRP munchlax: xe ban

(OOC) Combine-Soldier: May I ask why I was kicked?

I was then permanently banned from the server with this reason 

Disconnect: Kicked by IRP Fordy(STEAM_0:1:77500037) (Banned permanently: We dont need your shitty reviews for your unpopular shit website that no one gives a fuck about).

As you can see from this evidence I found that at least one of the staff members (Fordy) was extremely abusive and permabanned me for asking to do a review of the server. This behaviour is not acceptable for a high ranking adminstrator on a DarkRP server where people are banned for simply asking to review the server, If they did not want me to review the server the ideal reaction woudl be for them to speak to me in a calm and collected manner saying they would like the server not to be reviewed instead of taking such drastic actions as permaban. 

This has taught me a valuable lesson, in future reviews, I will not state to the staff that I am reviewing the server until I have covered every other aspect of the server review, this will allow me to see the server without being either treated unfairly in either way (good or bad, in this case it was badly). This method (similar to the mystery shopper used in shops and other establishments) will stop biased behavior from community members affecting the review.

Thank you for reading this first server review, I apologize for this being short , the next ones I will try to make them more detailed!

Hello everyone and welcome to this blog I hope you will find enjoyable content on it.

The purpose of this blog is to review Garry's mod Servers, Most of the servers we review will be the gamemode DarkRP but other gamemodes servers will be reviewed as well.

Now time to tell a bit about myself.
My name is Dark, I have over 7 thousand hours on Garry's mod and had the game since 2010/2009, I can code lua and have put an addon on the workshop currently called "darks scripts v1", Feel free to check it out! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=485874942

I have also been staff on many servers, so know what it means for a server to have a good and well managed staff team.
