Goku Posted November 20, 2016 Content Count: 2589 Joined: 02/05/12 Status: Offline Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Officially making the stance on invisible ladders that they are treated the same as regular ladders. Aka, they are KOS if they lead to/connect to a KOS area. Someone pester me to add this to the rules tomorrow xd Edit: Nevermind I died early in overwatch and added it xd I emphasised the "enter" kos zone, and added the bit about ladders under the ladders/stairs clarification. Edit 2: Just realized, the only reason that the scout platform on vipinthemix was KOS, was because the only way to get up there, was the invisible ladder, invisible platform, or teleporter. By the invisible ladder no longer being KOS, that means that that platform is no longer KOS. GG bois Edited November 20, 2016 by Goku Link to comment

The reason it was KOS was because there was no intended path to get to that balcony, without knowing a secret, and it led to a primary. We should discuss this specific instance further; but who really cares? Half the damn time pool orders are given, the word "water" appears somewhere in the statement, so that balcony would be KOS, as it is not only out of water, but also direct disobey.

I'm calling it a ladder, so it is a ladder. Shit isn't KOS. I plan on revisiting the whole "secret" word in the rule soon anyway. 1 Link to comment

Half of these questions are from people who believe they got freekilled or don't read the current rules to begin with Ladders that lead to catwalks and other kos-able zones are not allowed, easy right? 1 Link to comment

I'm contemplating just flat out removing the word from the rules/clarifications. Link to comment

Ladders like the one to get to cat on vipinthemix should be KOS. Link to comment

I'm contemplating just flat out removing the word from the rules/clarifications. This is me straying a little from the original topic, but we (meaning you, and whoever else's judgement you trust) should have some sort of word on secrets, or as they will soon be called "hidden map features". Some sort of say as to how CTs are allowed to handle them. I understand that a general rule is near impossible, (or at the very least, very hard) to come up with, due to the special scenarios on every map. Therefore, I am offering to make a comprehensive list for every map, similar to an encyclopedia, should the need occur. I do not like the idea of this, as it's essentially adding rules for every scenario that could happen in PB, however @Goku this is your decision. Sent on Mobile Link to comment

Sent on Mobile Or people on the internet could not be dumb and be reasonable with there orders. By not spraying someone down for going on a ladder that doesn't lead to a primary, instead you can just say "Get down from there". Then we wouldn't have to make encyclopedias for every scenario in JB for every map. But just to contradict myself, most people on the internet are dumb and we are going to need a encyclopedia for every scenario in JB. Link to comment
