Discussion regarding the new policies

[Artie]

Since the thread earlier regarding this was closed, please direct all comments in this thread please. Thanks.


Anyways, apparently lvling con with someone else in your apt is NOT a exploit, nor is the NPC CA guards in P1. But seriously wtf is up with the whole "no shooting yourself" thing. That's just..well....fucked up. =\

Glad u started it up again, its a good discussion.

People will do it regardless, even if its accidental.

It cant be policed, or enforced.

And they know it.

:confused:

exactly!! i suppose they just stated it so they can discourage it or something...=\


BTW get the new policy info here (http://www.neocron.com/index.php?name=NeoContent&op=modload&file=index&pageID=195).

I don't see whats wrong with lvling con on your own.

:confused:

I think it's a pretty stupid rule.

yeah...


here's another one...


LE'd runners refusing to leave a dungeon (thus preventing it from being reset).

hmm..this is very unenforcable. And beside's, wouldn't it be easy to simply put in the code a workaround? :confused: i don't know whether it's lack of coding, or simple attempts to discourage.

That's rather simple really, just have a player report it if the LEd player refuses to leave. And there's not that many caves people use anyway, so it's relatively simple to occasionally go through some of them.

WTF, that LE in dungeon thing IS BREAKING RULES?

I've reported losers doing that to me like 2-3 times now, and the GMs always give me bullshit about "not being able to take sides and argue if it's lame or not" and just leave.


[ edited for violation of the forum rules - flaming ]

BTW the shooting yourself thing is a joke, it's okay for another to shoot you, but not yourself?

Great let's make the game boring for TWO PLAYERS instead of ONE.

Good idea, the game's way too fun as it is.

[Clownst0pper]

Pay the fucking ingame GMs so they actually do work please.

Aint gonna happen.

Not neccesarily. For example, let's get a situation of a large clan camping mc5. A le'd player runs in front being a nuisance WHATEVER. The large clan gets ticked off and reports the le'd player for staying in the zone. The gm comes in, sees the le player standing there, and bans him. o_O I'm not a carebear by any means, but....yea...

Or how about someone who crashes in a cave, right when a gm gets there, and sees the le'd player standing there with all the mobs dead. Exploit?

Also (one more thing)....what if a large clan runs past all the other mobs to kill the boss mob (ala Point red) and then zones for a quick respawn. The le'd player is in the same place though, and takes it upon himself to fight all the other mobs in the dungeon. The clan complains...what would the gm do?

The support policy is not open for discussion. Thinking that any rule is unenforceable would also be a mistake.
