JB MOTD suggestion

[JJK]

Im not too sure whats goin on with motd, slaz mentioned he deleted it and is trying to restore it, thought id offer my input. I like it short and sweet, instead of defining every action.

With this format it would be easier to tell restrictions for your team

I like it.

Oh and there's a typo in the "camping/baiting" section.

[Cefdinir]

Thank you JJK.

If this goes through I might make an effort to play in the Jailbreak server again.

That's what I was thinking too.

[Blade]

yayaya +1

[Soccercrazy]

+1 from soccer

[Weeman]

+5 from weeman, cause he gets more points then soccer

[Cosmo]

+infinity, cause thats how I roll

[Moto]

go for it. specifics makes things worse imo

[Slazenger]

This could be interesting. Personally, I'd love to see the MOTD be that short.

 

 

But in all honesty, the players and new members will flip and it causes issues (which is what happened when Weeman and I decided to change it to the old MOTD). There are a few more overarching rules to be added to that to encompass everything and keep rioting and arguments from happening. We have to remember, everyone who has posted in this thread is well aware of how to play JB as well as the kinky/unusual things we do in our server.

 

I'll get in touch with you about changes.

 

 

 

Let's do it. =]

[Weeman]

throw in dont be a douchebag and your good to go

[JJK]

being a douchebag, falls under 'be considerate'

 

if youre giving orders everyone is complaining about or telling hard word traps taht make people leave teh server, you are thinking of only yourself and not being considerate of others - which would be the time for an admin to step in.

I like JJK's.

 

You might want to put big red letter's saying " USE COMMON SENSE! "

[Siphaed]

It's missing the most needed rule for all players: "USE COMMON SENSE!".

 

Also, I'd like to see the admin section stay in as well. There are too many new, younger admins that do not follow procedure and just like to "oh, it's a FK...ban!", "oh, he said shit head, that's disrespect, ban!"...and so forth. We need to have clearly defined rules for them to view right away to see when things are wrong or right.

 

 

But ya, I like the short and sweet version.

How will you be able to be an effective lawyer without the rules spelled out in depth? O_O

[JJK]

Jailbreak is an Hg server, all HG servers require players and admins to obey the same rules.

 

7. If someone is breaking the server rules...

-- 1 Give them one warning if they continue to break the server rules.

-- 2 Kick them off the server if they still continue.

I lime these rules because it says don't nit pick. Which means I can kill them

[jalepeno]

i like the idea of a shorter motd, but think some players would exploit the fact that it doesn't go into specific detail

Edited May 3, 2010 by JJK

[JJK]

Exploiting is against HG rules, and nitpicking would be considered rebelling.

 

you would need to think of an example

[Homer]

would like a smaller motd, possibly have it have a link to the JB Book for more details, lr explanation and such?

Brilliant idea.

Thats the problem awwik, too many kill nazis you want the fun stuff otherwise people go elsewhere then you lose your $15 admins

[ZEE SUPER GERMAN!]

I don't know, I actually like having an MOTD that's very long and detailed. I wouldn't mind adding suggestions as to how to play each team, though.
