No way! There's only few people who can use them properly and they I could just as easily do the same with a bolt action, laser sight and iron sights.. Don't get made Deadbolt, join the party..
See the server has already been paid for? Accepting donations still? Or am I best waiting till the next renewal?
Regarding banning certain weapons from the server I think 'personally' this is a bad idea. We're trying to promote a fun place to be and grow a server base. Restricting weapons would negitively impact peoples enjoyment. Or if you want lets turn it into a pistol only server... or would that attract G18 complaints?
Yeah I definitely agree that banning specific weapons is unnecessary - nothing's OP tbh, and as a ranked server we need to abide by Dice's TOS, which states weapons should only be banned if they're subject to glitching (e.g. M26 MASS glitch of a couple months back). Obviously those TOS rarely get enforced, but I think if it's a ranked server it should be normal-mode. If we want to enforce custom rules, we can turn ranked off (or PW it, like the Aria lads do on Sundays for their custom game modes) for those rounds, to be fair to the public, as it were.
I guess being admin :thumbup: i don't need a vip slot! Looking good fellas. And i agree no banning of weapons. If DICE wanted too they could enforce TOS rules. Though i doubt they will.
Pumping sluggers can be dealt with by using suppression. They shouldn't be a OHK at any range just to 15m dropping to 40 dmg at 50m. I presume they benefit from the 1.25x upper chest multiplier also.
Server Admins update. Myself Votick Lassar DlDeadbolt Whilst we as admins have made some poor judgments in the past. That is no more. I am going to speak to both Bolt and Lassar tonight. No longer slaying players each other for no real reason. Enforcing No Baserape rules. Server will have an unwritten no vehicles rule on city maps. But i feel Conquest should be dropped from rotation of numbers are below sixteen. No weapons are banned from use.
Sure, no base raping, but if I see you standing around in your base I will make attempts to road kill xD ^ I blame Birgipall for that
It would be handy to have an admin that tends to stay later tbh as we can have early morning battles where we get stuck on a bunch of stupid maps and end up abandoning server. Nominate Digi.
To be honest Digi you are correct. Only time i am on late is Friday's. Due to work. Will discuss this tonight mate.
I'm usually online till around 2am, it might help to have an admin in a different timezone completely, like Elton. Also:
Working till 20:00 GMT tonight but should make it on for an hour or so later on. Have a few ideas about the whole baseraping thing but happy to hammer down some guidelines.
Post the vid in the main thread man! Well that could work but I've been on multiple times in the last week where we've missed an admin and I've done the whole procon thing before, hence the offer. Plus I will be contributing at the end of this week either way. Aside from that, if 'Bolt can be an admin, any one can do it - all it takes is a threatening attitude and repeated abuse!
