New Maps.

As all of you know by now, we have new maps up and running in our server.
I will soon provide screen shots or rules for the spawnkilling limits.
Be aware though, that these limits will be temporary until Chenea, Harly and I have made a decision together.
These will just be a basic of idea, of what not to do.
I will provide them sometime tonight or tomorrow.

Cool Jen

Can you enable lightweapon spawnkilling and disable heavy spawnkilling including artillery. Because spawnshield is like three seconds and every normal player can move with that time out from spawn. Or you just could change spawnshield to five seconds and still allow lightweapon spawnkilling.

Changing that would change it on every map. We don't allow spawnkilling, unless it's on certain maps.

yes, that true

But you can understand that it is almost impossible to kill someone with Thompson or MP40 while he/she has spawnshield. So I think it might be a good idea, because if I kill someone and I'm not even in their spawn but they are in spawn, they start calling me a spawnkiller, witch I'm usually not.

Again, that would make it easier to spawnkill. Spawnkilling isn't allowed.

Jen is having some serious problems with her computer, so I am taking on this job instead.
After maps are posted, we will be sure to tell you if we decide to make any changes.

Ok, nice job on Pacman. Hope you get the others done soon.

And I ask why. Is it really so serious problem or... I don't know. Just try explain it to me and I hope I get it. I've played like Wolfenstein Enemy-Territory six years and lightweapon spawnkilling hasn't ever bordered me. So... But I think I just got it why you don't like it: because it is in the rules.

Yes, it's in the rules.. and I made them.
I've been a high admin for a long time,
and the last clan I was in, I was in it for 4 years.
I've observed enough in the servers to know people get frustrated and disconnect,
when someone is camping in their spawn.
& It's a lot more complicated to have to explain which weapons you can use to kill people in their spawn.

The rule was not made because of one person, and won't be changed because of one person either.
Sorry.

True dat Chenea.

Nice job on Supply depot and Baserace, Chenea, but u didn't by chance stay up all night again.

You don't have to be sorry and your explanation was perfect. Well I'm just a big jerk who don't get it sometimes and I don't like obey to the rules. For now on I try to remember this spawnkilling rule in all servers (not only in V&W). So thanks again. And I wish someone could answer to all my question like that. Just great.

I always stay up all night, Mike.

Marttinius don't worry about it. Try your hardest to follow each rule,
especially the respect one.. and nobody is going to get the spawnkilling one perfect 100% of the time.
As long as you're trying.. we will see that.

Just to add to the spawnkilling deal, its more there as a basis, so every player anywhere from new to pro, can have an equal chance at getting out in the map to play. So everyone can have fun.

I like the idea of the light weapons being allowed, but it's already hard to explain and enforce no spawnkilling as is. To explain something like "light weapons only" would be way too complicated to explain and adjust for each map. Especially when a lot of players speak english as their second language, or do not speak english at all.

Its a lot easier to just explain and for everyone to understand that: "no, means no." =P

On that note,
Thank you very much Chenea for doing all the spawnkilling limits for all of the new maps.
Hopefully by sometime next week, I'll be up and running again.

I bet that's why my reputation is so low, hehe. But is hasn't been my purpose to disrespect anybody and if I did so, I really apologize.

I dont think you have at all marttinius, or at least not that I have seen.
So don't worry about it.

What she said was more directed to everyone, including members, not pointing fingers.

Ah I realize how that sounded.
I wasn't implying that you were being disrespectful,
I just like to remind everyone that it's the most important rule on the list.

Very nice job on the spawnkilling lines, Chenea
