An easy way to stop sky cading (or at least make it more difficult) is to make it so you can't place a plank on to of anther plank. It can only be used on world brushes.

You can't put planks on top of other planks...At least I can't.

Or I just failed horribly.

Get really close to an edge of a plank, aim directly under you and there ya go

sky cades are mad (mostly) by hard work of the human team, i find it kind of fair.


Most of times while making one you can get killed by a fast zombie pushing you.

I was fully aware of this but I think that it takes far less skill to make that cade then it gives them advantage.  This also might be one of the reasons why you can't make such a cade in the other servers.

I 100% DISAGREE with this one, it only encourages RDM and killing someone because of low karma is not a valid reason.

In fact it borderlines on target RDM.

[Don]

I don't agree with either of the new rules.

Sky cading is so difficult on most maps AND fast zombies can still hurt them after all. It should be allowed.

And there's no need to include anything about low-karma RDM - there is 0 difference between that and regular RDM, except it probably isn't as bad.

Actually they pretty much can't. Usually only 1-5% of all the attempts to hurt humans succeeds, it also depends on how well the sky cade made. And don't get me wrong, I'm not completely against this although I would prefer it to be not allowed. Me and Alkaline decided to see what the community thinks about this type of cading and I am trying to highlight game play downsides of this.

And there's no need to include anything about low-karma RDM - there is 0 difference between that and regular RDM, except it probably isn't as bad.

There were quite a few threads where people were reporting for it and thinking that it is not allowed and is the same as target RDM so I thought it would be useful to include it to stop the confusion.

Nu, Not allowed because RDM isn't allowed You're not allowed to kill people just because they have low karma! You're only allowed to kill people for valid reasons and low karma isn't valid

[Deathie]

For once, I agree with Shawn.

[Prox]

Okay. There are people who think that low karma RDMs should be against the rules and that it should not. We're going to have to make a decision for this. It would be great so that more people would get involved into this discussion.

The only person i see that supports low karma killing is you. No one else in this thread has stated they support it.

Prox i understand you're only trying to help and keep the servers nice and clean but you CAN'T just take a rule that has been part of the game since forever and just turn around and say "Nope its legit now" These rules were put in place for a reason.
