Arrrggg Ff Like Honey For Tkers

[SgtFury]

Rant:

What is it about FF that attracts such Pains in the proverbial!!! Tuesday night had about 3 games ruined in a row due to TKers and their antics.

I just can`t understand it myself. The mentality that says I`m going to join a game and then start shooting everyone on my side deliberatly just to annoy them!! Or I`ll shoot the cc until the commander gets out and then spend all his res on mines!!!! ARRRRGGHHH

Rant over.

Sorry about that just reliving some tension.

1. Tell admins in the server right away.

2. Ask someone whos in the game currently and has IRC on, to do the !admin thing

3. Goto IRC and do it yourself if noone else is.


and remember: Don't try to take revenge on them because you'll end up being punished too! no exceptions ^_^


and BTW: I have RARLY ever seen a Intentional TKer on LM. So itd a rare occasion, but the admins make sure they wont be comming back to cause any more trouble

[BobTheJanitor]

Yes, exactly right Diablus. This sort of thing can be handled in 30 seconds by jumping in IRC and alerting an admin. If you don't have IRC, pop open these forums and click the IRC link to get a java IRC client. Type !admin and someone is bound to respond. Always remember that when you're playing on LM, you don't ever have to put up with stupidity ruining your games.

Oh, it happens quite a bit.  They're just usually dealt with quite quickly.

Like that guy who singled out Holy Devil and TKed him as a skulk.  Got kicked, came back and found HD again and TKed him.    That was good times.

[JHunz]

I can handle a TKer within 20 seconds of knowing about it.  Other admins have to actually join the server, but they'll take them out pretty fast as well.  Just let us know.

[SgtFury]

I`m not moaning about the admin service on Lunix beacuse it is good. I think in this case Lito jumped on IRC for us and someone came and kicked him. But it can be damn annying thats all

The price of fame. When a server becomes as universally known as this one, it makes enemies. It can't be avoided - you don't need to go out of your way to do it, because people will go out of THEIR way to become enemies with you. Consequently, I bet there's a fair amount of people who go "Yeah, I hate that Linuxmunstar, let's go suxx0r to the maxx0r on it!" and voila: Teamkillers. That's what the admins are there for.

hooray destroy the tkers!

team killing should not be allowed except when your team won the game and start fooling around! \(^o^)/

when did LM start having ff? I haven't been around for a long time :[

Shortly after 3.0b1 was released. It was turned on in an effort to stop the horrible nade spamming that went on in co maps. Since then we've generally all grown to like having it on. It adds a lot to the game, even if you do have to deal with idiots abusing it. And with random people who don't realize that running up to an RT and biting the skulk that's biting the RT is a bad idea. How many sprays of green blood do you mindless people need to SEE?

Ahem. But yeah, FF has been on for a while now.

[Asurada]

lol FF was turn on to prevent nade spamming? thats a evil but yet a good idea to deal with those ambitous nade monsters. AND THAT MEANS YOU LITO! (i don't know why but is you Lito!)  :p

I always try to take down teh oni after music plays  :ph34r:  

[Niteowl]

you have no hooty honour if you try and tk anytime! *HOOT*

you become ubar cool if you run away from your teammate who tries to tk you after the musak ends, double points if you do so even though you are much more powerful.

but not as many hooty honour if you balance the skill in the teams

To my knowledge Stop, spores, devour and.. dammit.. there has to be another one.. Uh.. Healspray. Yeah. All of those do not have any negative effect on aliens with or without FF.

Edit: Dammit, Now I remember the other one.. WEBS =/
Well, healspray still applies

[Malibu Stacey]

In my rather insignificant opinion, FF on adds a lot more skill to the game in general. Hence ff switches on when mp_tournamentmode is set to 1.
Also I've seen too many clans think they're amazingly pro when they play pub servers and then play amazingly terribly when in a match situation as their random spray is no longer as effective as it was with no FF.
What I'm trying to say is it will keep you sharp & prepare you for scrims, pugs & matches further down the line.

Scrims, Pugs, and Matches? Laff :lol:

Anywho, I really support FF, mainly because of the same reasoning that LF uses for anti-bhopping, atmosphere/roleplaying. If you were a marine, would you spray down a corridor dispite the clutter of 4 marines and their obstructive heads? To actually harm your own brethren? Of course not. You'd pick your shots. You don't want to put a bullet into someone's spine.

Webs themselves are infact affected by FF - they are vulnurable to friendly bilebombs.
