[Answered] [JB] CT Double Standard

[TheZZL]

A common order is, "Take a step out face the back and freeze". If the T crouches they'll be shot for not following the order exactly, as the CT never said to crouch.

 

However, if the order is shift walk to medic a CT normally has to clarify "no jumping" or not. In this case, CT's don't shoot the T's who are jumping as the CT who gave the order never clarified if they should not be jumping. Most admins agree that you shouldn't add any extra actions (as a T) to the CT's given orders.

 

To clarify, shouldn't we be giving warning shots to T's who jump in a "shift walk" order?

No.

 

From our FAQs:

Q- Is no jumping implied when ordered to shift or crouch walk?

A- No. If CTs do not want Ts jumping, they must specify that.

That's not exactly true. If a T comes out already crouching then they cannot be warning shot since they are frozen. If they come out standing and then crouch, they can be warning shot because moving between being crouched/uncrouched is not remaining frozen.

 

This is undergoing review.

Making a separate post to address the above.

 

The JB ATs discussed this at length and decided that while crouching out of cells is following the order, it is delaying. Thus, it deserves a warning shot. My answer above will be amended accordingly to reflect this change and avoid any confusion.
