Suiciding is allowed? Server needs Definitive Answer

Post by premo » Sun Mar 29, 2009 8:49 am

Hello my names Premo ive been playing here off and on for 2 months.Somtimes i loaded with neg W.O.P.s so i suicide.Two weeks ago i was told by ZombieSlayer only 2 suicides allowed per map and he explained why.Later that day i played with and Admin that allowed it and set no limit on it.Then today im playing and i die mid wave some1 says premo suicided i said nope because if i did it be near end of wave.Then an Admin gets on and threatens to bann me if i suicide just 1 time.Does Joey allow admins to play god?Because i could have been banned just because an admin makes his own rules up.I just think the server needs a SET rule not a rule that Admins can use to bully people.Rules need a set guidline and until now this server doesnt seem to have a set rule about suiciding.Dont get me wrong i love this server and that was the first time Ive been threatened to be banned.Please whoever is in charge here make the rule definitive please.If any1 wants the screens from todays incident pm me i didn't post it because i didn't wanna look like i was slandering an admin.

Found this while reading rules in number 11 of server rules.Quote by Paintball, then if you havent suicided more than 3 times that map then you may suicide to get your gold kit back.That statment leads me to believe that 3 suicides are allowed and Paintball is in charge of writing down these rules correct?My quote was taken from server rules number 11.

if you read the rules as you said then you have your answer. that is not slandering. but it is known that you like to creat issues and you trying to knock heads with an admin is no diffrent.

I didnt make this thread to start on anyone and im not sure what u meant by that statement but i was threatened to be banned for somthing that this servers says i can do 3 times a map.I been told by other players they were banned before for suiciding by a certain admin.Thank you Kana for your concern and your reply.I didnt start anything with anyone im a fairly new player that just wants this issue to be adressed before someone gets banned for doing what Paintball told us we could do.

Try playing without suiciding. I hardly ever suicide. I get bad or crappy weps, and play with them. That's part of the fun. Usually the wep choices aren't any better, either.

As for gold, you can always just whack a monster on the head and wait...

Suiciding to get wrenches back is allowed as far as I remember. Suiciding / Reconnecting to get better WOPs or higher non-WOPs isn't. It's also pointless considering the juggling system we use.

Bad weapon? Ask around. Or buy purple/blue kits.

11).DO NOT CHEAT- If you do not get a weapon of power when you spawn do not under any circumstances disconnect then reconnect from the server to change your luck, instead look for a gold kit to apply to your weapons to make them wops or ask other players to jug theirs, or if you bought the gold kit ability, then if you havent suicided more than 3 times that map then you may suicide to get your gold kit back. Disconnecting and reconnecting messes and with rpg and the weapon of power chance system and creates lag on the server.
Until the new patch is in place and the rules are adjusted, go by that.

If you feel you have been unjustly banned, use the server removal forum to state your case. Attacks (name calling, threats, etc etc) against admins will only piss us off so don't do it ;) Before anyone gets all pissy, this paragraph is not directed at any one person.

you can "suicide" by switching to weps which doesnt have any shiedls on and wait till harder monsters kill you.. with a bit trainig you get more often killed (esp. with a pullforwarded wep against titans) than suiciding that 3 times, and it doesnt take long to purple wops to 10... except u have good pus or artifacts...then.. like Mr_N_Pants said, try play with negative or lownumbered weps, sometimes they work well with the right pus and a doubledamage.spawn...and its a challenge for those who are tired of playing all the time with full loaded 10 ext-weps and have easy going for winning allways 1. ranked...but thats another story...

Best thing to do for the server is what amy said. She is a smart cookie!
Later all!
