- You have the possibility to navigate yourself to the specific sections as shown in the compass. The cube in the compass enables you to visit all integrated minigames in the lobby.
- To add friends and make appropriate adjustments, take a look at your head. Furthermore, you have a Replay- + Chatlog-Overview as well as your levels, booster, and tokens are displayed. Settings for the lobby, network and PushUp-Notifications can also be matched here.
- You can easily create a clan and manage them accordingly with the clan-banner.
- You can use the ingameshop by opening the golden apple. Lobby-Items eg. gadgets, cosmetics or the premium-rank can be purchased here.
- Your achievements menu will be displayed by opening the nether star. All progresses of each achievement can be inspected here in detail. Alternatively, this can also be done via the command /achievements.
- You can switch between the lobbies with the clock.
One way is that a friend of yours could show it, eg. via discord-screen sharing option or similar ways.
Another option is that you can simply download the material regarding the evidence on the internet and use the so-called “Replay-Mod” on yourself, afterwards. Open your Browser and type “game.thelotus.tv/yourgameID” in your address bar to download the replay. You can figure out your associated gameID on your banscreen. The gameid is composed of eight signs although large and lower case plus numbers could occur (eg. AKFq86Sf).
Subsequently, click on the field “download replay”.
Please consider that attempting to join on the network with a different account is also considered as ban evasion and will be avenged accordingly!
- Chat offences: If a player behaves inappropriately in the chat, you can create a chat log with /cl . You can then send this to a supporter or moderator, create a report at lts.link/report or submit it in the Discord ticket system.
Note that only messages in public chat are penalised (not via msg/party/clan)!
- Lobby: If a player conspicuously violates the rules, you can report it in the Teamspeak support, write to a team member in the lobby or report the player with a recording in the HUB at lts.link/report.
- In-game: Here you can report the player who is not following the rules with /report . It is also possible to report the player in Teamspeak support as long as the round is still running. If the round has already ended, please create a report in the HUB under lts.link/report.
You create a report in the HUB by clicking on "User Report" on the page lts.link/report under the item "Create new ticket". Then enter all the required evidence and click on "+ Create".
Unbanning:
- If you think you have been unjustly banned, write an unbanning request at lts.link/unban in which you prove your innocence.
- If you are permanently banned for client mods (your online time < 10 hours), you can also create a ban request. This should be honest and include a detailed apology. Depending on how long ago you were banned, you will either be banned immediately or your ban will be reduced to a total of 30 days.
To apply for unbanning, you have to click on "+ New topic" under lts.link/unban.
- Solltest du einen Entbannungsantrag für einen Serverbann schreiben wollen, aber im Forum ebenfalls gebannt sein, kannst du entweder einen Freund fragen, ob er deinen Entbannungsantrag über seinen Forenaccount für dich absendet oder dich alternativ zuerst über die Email-Adresse unban@thelotus.tv im Forum entbannen lassen. (Dies geht natürlich nur dann, wenn dieser Bann zu Unrecht war.)
If you are interested in actively participating as a team member on the server, you can apply for our server team at join.thelotus.tv
There you can also find out whether there is currently an open application phase and for which ranks you can apply. We look forward to seeing you!
