Declined New Rule Idea for our 10x Servers

[ϟ Sparks Thunderfur ϟ]

Now, this is mostly just a proposal (as well as a personal irk, but..)

I've been playing 10x, for, at least a year or two now.

And the one thing I hate more than anything on 10x, is someone who caps constantly.

Some 10x servers have rules against it, some don't.

I've noticed that alot, not all, but, a lot of the people I see on our 10x servers often hate the people who cap, especially with a paintrain. (I've actually seen people complain about it, as well as vote VERY favorably against booting them when they consistently capped and capped, just to piss people off)

I'd like to propose a rule against capping past the mid point, as that's often a favored position.

It's fun to fight over the mid sometimes, but, once it goes past there, it usually stops being fun.

What do you guys think? Sound like a good idea or..?

Maybe a poll?

As someone who palys x10 alot, i have to agree
But instead of a simple rule that forbids it, i would actually even prefer locking some or all (depending on the others opinion) cap-points away
i.e. above he skybox, or below the map
Sure the only thing that still makes it able to cap is the "Flying" (NoClip) effect from RTD, but someone who wants to piss off people AND gets NoClip in RTD is pretty rare so i guess thats the best solution to do

 

[Timo]

Hm. On blueprint's hightower x10 there are unmovable carts. Maybe that would be better than a rule against capping.

 

[Frama]

Exactly! As Timo said above, we can actually lock the carts so people will play for fun and not just cap.

 

[Benedevil]

CPs can be locked, but I don't think everyone would agree with this change.

 

[Loldielol]

Nope, I wouldn't agree to it as that's the point of the map.

Though if it's possible to add a vote to lock cap, then this would be a good idea.

Agreed, my opinion is fully on that now

 

[ϟ Sparks Thunderfur ϟ]

I actually think that'd be a pretty good idea. Vote-locking.

And, on a side note, speaking of votes,

Do you think we could implement a custom voting system?

I've often tried to get people's opinion on a varying subject in a server, but most people didn't notice, and a custom vote-poll.. thing.. Would probably make that alot easier

Doesn't !vote "question" "answer 1" "answer2"... Work?

 

[Noodl]

Doesn't !vote "question" "answer 1" "answer2"... Work?

Which returns a yes or a no.

No convars or game related things will be changed via sm_vote.

I'm aware of that. I just asked because Sparks said

I'm mostly asking because I don't think we even have it.. do we?

I think you should have it. Go into console, type:sm_vote "question" "answer1" "answer2"

I think you can do up to 6 answers(?)
