Recommended Posts

We are in the process of updating the MOTD for jailbreak. Now is your chance to suggest helpful rules, or to voice your opinion about a rule that you think detracts from the game. Any suggestions you have heard from others are appreciated no matter how silly. This is not a map or command update, just general rules to guide players through their day....

I think that freeze orders shouldn't prohibit free-looking unless you are told to face a certain direction. I think this will help eliminate killing someone for barely touching their mouse or for a slight head movement. Freezing would of course include not jumping, crouching, or knifing... that would mean getting on gun checks and less stack time

No tarps within cell, what ever an admin says GOES, Delaying round by refusing to LR will result in a warning/slay/kick/ban, Music is allowed under admin consent, promoting fire when lead is determined to be fine by admins can result in a warning/kick/ban, When a lead says "Freeze" It should mean that any Physical movement that is CLEARLY seeable is moving, being a freeze nazi can result in a warning/slay/team-lock/t-list/kick/ban, If lead for 3 rounds and there is other people who are wanting to be lead you must pass it, Give blackberry lots of points, Give orders clearly and fluidly or else it can result in loss of lead, moving past the yellow striped line in Shot for shot in any activity besides dodge ball will result in a slay next round then if continued a t-list

Thats all i can think of now. (Its 6:26am were i am)

establish the 3 round leading rule and 3 round warday rule

 

Maybe some rules on !fire, such as do not encourage the use of !fire. When people start to encourage the rest of the players to use it then they will join in.

 

 

And i know its offtopic motd side, but maybe if the lead wasn't sent to electric chair then so many t's wouldnt abuse it. maybe they think "LOL LETS SEND THIS LEAD TO ELECTRIC CHAIR COS I LIKE FUNNIES"

Can we have a set buffer time on how long T's have to freeze after order. A lot of times when lead dies and new one takes over, after freeze command CT's instantly kill any movers without giving them reasonable time to freeze. Not sure if its on MoTD yet but if it isnt then it should be to clear up any confusion.

 

Also can there be a cap on wardays in a row? I've seen 10 armory war days in a row once and a lot of non HG members left the server during it, its ridiculous and uncreative.

 

Also this is just a question I want some clarity on, are gay jokes allowed on joke days? Nothing really cruel but just fun lil jokes, I've heard yes and no before so want some clarity.

after an order, T's should respond to it within 5 seconds. After this, they are fair game. If lead has died, and the new lead tells T's to freeze, unless the T is red or moving into a threatening position (ie running into first cell), i would kill them. not sure how that would be worded in the motd!:P

 

there is/was a cap of 3 wardays in a row anymore is wrong. Although i thought that the JB script blocks more than 3 wardays in a row!

 

As long as the joke isnt extremely disrespectful, personally i would allow it, but if people complained i would warn to tone it it down a bit. (Covered i believe by No disrespect in the motd)

3 seconds is the general consensus with jailbreak vets. wardays should be limited to no more than THREE in a row. and i believe gay jokes are allowed as long as they're not hateful.

 

Delaying round by refusing to LR will result in a warning/slay/kick/ban, Music is allowed under admin consent, promoting fire when lead is determined to be fine by admins can result in a warning/kick/ban, If lead for 3 rounds and there is other people who are wanting to be lead you must pass it, Give orders clearly and fluidly or else it can result in loss of lead

 

I like to delay my LR by running around finding drugs, why would you punish me for that? I can understand if its one of the freak "3-4" minute LR's but if its =< 2 minutes of an lr, you can wait while I fuck around finding drugs. Why does an admin have to consent to my music over hldj? usually an admin will tell you to stop if a few people on the server are complaining so I think that doesn't need to be changed. The three rule thing is bullshit, if you want it be faster. I have a shit computer and can get lead during prime time (when i'm lagging ~5 seconds at the start of each round). What is designated as fluid and clear orders? all my opinions on everything.

 

I'm off to class, will update this when I get home with some ideas.

No crouch walking orders between long distances. A max of 3 wardays in a row. A max for about 6 that someone can take lead in a row. Evil simon says needs to be banned. Encouraging fire will result in a warn, kick, ban unless lead has told them to.. (which I have seen happen before). Constantly shooting the volly-ball should result in a warn, kick.

 

 

 

Are science days banned?

 

 

TO STAFF:

Once the jailbreak motd updates have been put in place, something needs to be added in the Server by Server Advert System notifying players that the motd has been updated.

define science day. evil simon says is fine listen close and you'll be fine. crouch walking is a good way to tarp derp t's to get them killed, however can we have a "time limit" on crouch walking orders, say no more than 15-20 seconds? thats enough to get all the derp t's out of the way and get a start on getting to the destination. volleyball needs to be a bannable offense. not even joking that shit is ANNOYING. "warday in pool guys!" "beep beep beep beep beep" fuck cts that do that shit.

It's where lead says he wants to do an experiment. Example.. "T's unstack along big cage and face shot for shot. I want a to see how many bullets it takes to kill everyone." and lead kills the whole team.

 

last i checked that was a mass (free)kill which is definately against the MOTD. only science days they should be having is canadian where they go into the kitchen and everybody shouts "FOR SCIENCE!"

No more getting to LR to search for drugs?

Unless you give me an !blackberry i will allow it..

And @blu, i mean there being like 3:00 on the clock and someone being the last t and walking around and REFUSING to lr. I would, however, understand if you had like a minute or so and there was another t, then i believe it would be considered fine to do what ever you want.

Just my 2 cents here, but in my opinion there really isn't anything I have to complain about. I mean lets not start nitpicking here guys, it is a game after all. I mean if we start implementing more and more rules its just going to become soooo regulated and boring. I'd like a little freedom you know, jailbreak is already starting to get a little bit more generic lets not kill the game here.

 

Concerning the issues brought up so far:

 

3 day cap on warden/warday- I like to see and engage in competition for lead its nothing that bothers me, and lets be honest the majority of the time if someone is lead hogging and someone steps up and says I'd like to lead they will 90% of the time pass it. Rarely have I seen someone that is a total dick or someone the admins couldnt handle.

Soo don't think it really needs to be in the motd

 

lr delay- well that can be annoying but again it doesnt always happen but when it does just remember that T earned the right to get lr and should be able to do whatever the hell they want. Seriously its only a couple mins. Just take a break or listen to some music or spec.

 

Whatever just my 2 cents. My overall opinion is that its fine the way it is, and nothing is seriously bothering me so far.

Bump.

 

If you have ANY suggestions now is the time, or forever hold your peace. On that note, don't discuss someone else's suggestion/s, just give yours and move along.

 

Please skim over the previous posts to avoid duplicate suggestions.

 

All suggestions are appreciated, but don't cry if they aren't added.
