[Serious] The last Hump Day before hard ban

Wednesday Sep 2nd, starting at 20:00 Eastern US

Community PSAs at Starting Gate & quick discussion for those who don't forum. Passing along news of Feral & Guard. Nudging twinks to forum(s) and TeamSpeak; unilateral ban on terrain exploiting AKA "Jumping". The exception - sitting on a "stump" while a feline gets skinned. Responsible Twinkers can use Guard while FCing. Qualify by obeying the other rules.

I'll begrudgingly accept the banning of certain goodies. PM me for info on Restorative Potion.

There was an issue in TeamSpeak last Wednesday. I've been informed that it's taken care of. It better be. You're risking a ban from the 39 TC and just being a dick. Be professional in Voice to ensure fellow twinks are comfortable.

Logical & Constructive posts only. Please attempt grammar, spelling, editing. 99 words MAX.

I don't understand, all jumps are banned except stump jumps?
 
That's correct. I agreed that Boostz's language wasn't clear, and that we need a simple & straightforward approach to bans on terrain exploits. Without it, gray areas will be used and it will cause confusion in the ranks. Specifically in regards to a jump you're considering - middle tunnel to top of tunnel. That jump forces melee to commit and provides an easy escape for an FC, right into base should it be needed. The Alliance tunnel is not equivalent, so let's just use the terrain as Blizzard intended.
 
No that is wrong - more then 2 successive jumps isn't aloud ie if you can move one that jump point doesn't count as a successive jump - the jump like from horde bottom of tunnel to top of tunnel takes 2 successive jumps up to that point then 1 jump. This is aloud - jumps like jumping up gy through jumping into the 4-5 successive times is banned. Banning everything is just retarded - everyone in the 39 bracket has come from the 19 or 29 bracket and know these simple jumps and should be able to do them.

Where are you even getting this information from? Didn't you just make it up yourself?


Donteventrii is correct.
 
Can these bracket committee members stop making threads to enforce their own rules into the pugs? :S
 
Nastay wasn't here when it was being discussed. Let me clarify.

Ally rejuf roof jump in tp is not allowed.
Bottom to gy and gy to 2nd level jumps for both factions are not allowed.
That 1 particular stump in front of horde rejuv in wsg is not allowed because certain classes cannot get up there.

Bottom to roof of tunnel for both factions are allowed.
Top of tunnel ledges (those bits of los) are allowed.

Anything else that comes up in the future regarding new jumps will be reviewed.

Other:
Arcane bombs/flash bombs are not allowed. Ferals are not allowed. Guard is discouraged (outside of an fc role) but in the end it is up to the individual.

what happened in teamspeak last wednesday?

Beyond the obvious trolling in wrong rooms?

Geno and I will be cracking down on TS shenanigans, first with timeouts and then with bans. So be nice in the TS that is being provided for everyone to be in the same voice without moving around from skype to skype or whatever.
 
It makes more sense to do an across the board terrain exploit ban. [MENTION=21985]Blaze[/MENTION] has previously touched on the benefits, namely to avoid confusion on what is(n't) allowed. However I'll accept [MENTION=2576]Boostz[/MENTION] piecemeal approach for now and let's see where that gets us.

Really excited to see implementation on Wednesday.
 
Is flyhacking, DDOSing, botting, and lagswitching allowed?

Asking for a friend.
