English term or phrase: to ring off the hook
Hallo liebe Kollegen...

Habe mit diesem Ausdruck Probleme... in diesem Zusammenhang...

EN:
Because of the renaming caused by joining the servers, #arg1(%s) has changed the name of this team to #arg2(%s).
The Team Leader #arg1(%s) has left, and #arg2(%s) has became the new Team Leader.
#arg1(%s) demolished the building of #arg2(%s).
#arg1(%s) started the construction of #arg2(%s).

#arg1(%s) ****had been ringing off the hook. ***

-DE:
Durch den Umbenennungsprozess beim Serverbeitritt hat #arg1(%s) dieses Team in #arg2(%s) umbenannt.
Der Team-Leader #arg1(%s) ist fort, und #arg2(%s) ist der neue Team-Leader.
#arg1(%s) hat das Gebäude von #arg2(%s) vernichtet.
#arg1(%s) hat mit dem Bau von #arg2(%s) begonnen.
#arg1(%s) ***war ausgehängt.*** ???

Ich weiß von einem ausghängten Telefon, man kann "fein raus sein", etc... aber hier? Der Spieler hat "Däumchen gedreht", war nicht am Spiel beteiligt?

Danke für eure Vorschläge
