TheZZL

The OP is talking about adding a point requirement, which is something none of you acknowledged in your responses. @Trazz was the one to bring up changing the timer to time spent alive.

Just to clarify, I had played one map (Spy Vs. Spy). It was one map, that I guess got extended.

Currently, we have a thirty-minute timer to join CT side, and in my opinion, that's not enough. In this post I had brought up an idea that @Daft and @codez had talked about in-game, but it was ignored. The idea was to base the requirements to join CT side off of points and not time played. I elaborated on the idea, and thought we should keep both. Today I went online a fresh account to see how many points I could rack up in that thirty minutes. I spent a lot of the time getting freekilled, or dying early, but I was genuinely trying to get kills. In the end, these were my results: [ATTACH=CONFIG]20564[/ATTACH] I was only able to get eight points because I spent a large chunk of my time dead. However, I was still able to join CT side later. I think we should introduce a time limit, and a point limit. You should have to have at least 25 points+ (killed CT's) and over thirty minutes of playtime. If we could also tell the player who attempted to join CT side however many points they have left to join in chat, I think it would definitely help a lot. 25 points doesn't seem like a lot to get, so I believe that would be the more realistic number. To address the topic of players getting bored and leaving the server, twenty-five kills isn't a lot to ask for. That would require a map and a half of gameplay. In Jailbreak's current state players spend less time having fun and learning, and more time being free killed or under strict rule. This makes it harder for T's to genuinely learn rules, and the thirty-minute timer turns into a useless countdown clock.

It isn't a matter of people hating newer maps, it's getting used to a newer map. People generally like razor, revamp, and VIP because they've been on the server for so long, are easy maps to rebell on, and have a wide variey of known secrets. We have a lot of other good maps on Jailbreak, they just don't get played often. If you're frustrated with the constant map cycle you'd probably like maps like Clouds, Undertale, Arcade, and Avalanche. These maps aren't super popular, but people like them. If you ever find a good map with plenty of not hard secrets, make a map suggestion like @Infinityward said.

If I can identify the player's hand in a stack of T's to that person's model I will kill them for shooting. Generally, T's think grouping in a stack might help, but I can determine who's shooting a majority of the time. Got to agree with @Dominic here, I won't call a KOS but I'll be keeping that information in the back of my mind for later. This thread was summed up by @Tyymunk, so if someone wants to make a new thread in the Rules Discussion about the KOS off of cosmetics issue let's continue the discussion there.

To add onto what @Trazz and @Dom said, the freeday was given during the first order. Even though it’s not allowed you might as well go with it until you can revoke it. My issue is with the wording of the sentence it sounds like the separate ct restricted kitchen DURING the first order, which would negate it.

Not gonna lie this generally works for me. If you can actually pay attention in class and understand the material in class don’t go crazy with studying. Simply look over your notes the night before, always do most of the review sheet, and try to study with a friend that won’t distract you. However, you will get tests you have to actually study for days in advance; midterms, finals, large unit assessments.

Good luck on your surgery, I know all will go well. Once your recover I expect to see you on JB where I can terrorize and freekill you to boost my kd. GL Error

All of these look really good, I like how we're using "lead manager" to organize the team leaders. My one worry comes with the Change from Administrative manager to Lead Manager. If I'm not mistaken, the AM (Fuze) is the manager for the administrative team only. Having a title called "Lead Manager" might confuse people in thinking that he is the manager of the managers (Like the "King of kings"). My proposed change for AM would be Lead Administrative Manager, but that's kind of a handful. We could also just keep it as Administrative Manager Administrative Manager -> Lead Administrative Manager Administrative Manager -> Administrative Manager

I'm going to go out on a limb and say when you say "rules page" you mean the in-game !rules. I wouldn't mind adding a mini version !faq for those players who are actually interested.

This already happens. The way you phrased your OP suggested making this an automatic thing. Of course admins know when to switch what players and when, it's their server, you said it yourself. If your entire OP's idea is just saying, "If a CT has too many !fk reports admins should switch them", then no that doesn't make much sense. You amended this in your response later; if a player has a lot of !fk reports and !calladmins you should watch them, maybe switch them for "ratio" if its been deemed necessary. In my opinion, you should never just randomly switch someone because people are saying they're freekilling.

Why require CT's to follow a protocol if a T has a gun. That would restrict the CT's ability to do certain things, making it harder to control the situation. I'm not going to go into detail, but this would be a bad idea.

Just post this to half of Aelius' posts, because most of these issues are ignorant players who are breaking the rules or using loopholes to abuse.

With the current !rtdmenu command, there is no way to close it through itself. If you want to get it off your screen you have to type !nominate and then click 9 to close from there. Since (I assume) this is a plugin we would want to use in the future, maybe editing it or sending a request for the plugin-maker to add one. [ATTACH=CONFIG]20542[/ATTACH]

It really seems like you are blowing a lot of these situations out of proportion. You're talking about "back then when we were able to line T's out of medic and pick out the pistol", that was like two weeks ago, relax. Also, who is this "Epic Bosses" you're referring to. @Trazz summed this post up pretty much.

This is a common thing. It used to be standard to repeat the order once or twice, or a friendly T can repeat it in chat for their buddies. I personally wouldn’t mind nor think a repeat request from the T’s would be a problem for us at all. The only thing I’m worried about is having this become a more than one time occurrence. I think T’s should only be able to ask for a repeat once, but only if the order is confusing (as @Takuto said).

Jb logs aren’t like TTT logs, we don’t know when someone got a different set of damage delt to them. It’s something like this: DAMAGE GIVEN TO Aelius 273 in 5 You might be right if people are confusing this rule, but that just comes down to ignorance. You can link them the rules page, explain the rule, and help out all you want. However, if they’re just breaking this rule record a player complaint. Admins shouldn’t have to always give a player a strict punishments, giving the player a pass and educating them on the rules is better. I’m not going to quote the entire first part again so here’s my response: A lot of these things have been repeated beautifully by @Trazz and @urp already, but I need to touch it up with my two cents. Having a system auto kick someone from CT just because they’re playing well is ridiculous. Having the t’s rebel and win every round over and over is what makes players get bored. The ideal JB is a balance between rebelling and orders. If the T’s start getting more successful, then it’s time to bring out the big guns and play by the book. Then, what if players think they’re being free killed and decide to rally their friends to type !fk . Now, we have a good CT forced to play T side while the T’s wreak havoc over and over because he/she can’t get back on CT side. In this scenario I think he means if a T is given a warning shot for an order, there is a rule stating if the T disobeys the same exact order after already being warning shot they can be killed (1 tapped). According to Aelius, some players seem to think this means after one warning shot, you can be killed for disobeying any other order. This is not true, and is simple ignorance of the rules (something you still get punished for).

[ATTACH=CONFIG]20523[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]20524[/ATTACH] He's talking about this ^. The pistol on the back of the panther skin sticks out a lot more compared to other skins because of its model size. @fantastic

Congratulations to all!!
