For Context, i made a base that when you walk in a certain spot, you are stuck, similar to a kidnap cell. In order to get out, you need to lock pick the prop blocking the exit or keypad crack out. Both of which were clearly visible, the props that held you in the location were not visible but thats not relevant whatsoever as they had no fading doors attached to them. The path out of said dupe was visible and the keypads were not hidden. Since the admin i reported instantly denied my report, is my dupe against the rules? I made sure to follow every basing rule, the fading door was visible and the keypads were visible (legerbs claimed the keypad was not visible even though his video clearly showed it on the wall in front of his face) https://youtu.be/K_6l-0JMrd0 The only thing that differs here from a normal kidnap dupe is the fact that i didnt physically put them into it. Somehow that warrants a kick from the server. If someone walks into my kidnap cage, and i close the door with a button, (which is NO different than what i was doing) i am now failbasing? people "failbase" every single time im on this server, skybases, bases on roofs with no actual access, hobo bases in the street, bases that require jump sweps. Staff never intervene with these yet when i make a base that follows every rule under the basing section and does not violate any of the failbasing criteria, im suddenly loopholing?

I think kidnapping is fine the way it is personally. (for non ccs) A good change would be an on screen reminder or even a prompt you can click to respawn when your timer is up. (for the new guys that don't know they can kill in console) Also, hardhat. Fuck hardhat, even though its saved me more times than i can count. Also remove the stupid CC bludgeons that remove the swinging animations. this is because you are using a CC to kidnap. I wouldn't even bother trying unless you're on a non CC class.

i get reading might not be your strongpoint, but motd says cp can kill anyone attacking another person

I appreciate the input. The point of my post was to bring light to the situation. I gave up on wanting "fairness" for all a long time ago man. My post wasn't an attempt to be treated differently just to shed light on how people that are "disliked" are treated poorly and people that are liked (staff, former staff, good friends of staff) get a lot more leniency. The fact that i'm "disliked" is by design. If i join the server (which is always very populated) and im buddy buddy with every person ive had interaction with, whats the point of playing? You have no "enemies" to battle with and and banter toward. YOu just kinda stand there and talk and stare at each other. Thats boring as fuck. Id much rather play DarkRP and shit on kids and call them shit dumpsters than sit at fountain slapping my buddies in the air and raiding every new player i see because you have no real "enemies" other than players you dont know. The face that i'm "disliked" should not mean i'm treated differently by staff. Yet it does in fact mean im treated very differently, and i wanted others to realize that.

You must just skip to the bottom and give your two cents like me, if you would have read what i wrote, i do not report single rdms. Rarely will i, the only time i see myself making a report on a single rdm is if they blatantly rdm me and advert crossfire. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

this is funny, if a player walks up and randomly kills a moderator, 9 times out of 10 they are going to tp jail them. How tf is that any different? Its not. Even if i did report single rdms (which i dont) your argument is invalid. I also remember very clearly of you specifically doing what i just mentioned, a lot. Youve even Jailed me because you though i was mass rdming by shooting 1 player who was standing in a group. That was a single rdm, why did you care so much? thats right because you and other staff are no different.

Hello it is Corp or Wilhelm or whatever you may know me by but this is not anything new. I face a lot of scrutiny for "crying" as you might put from players and staff alike. This honestly makes me laugh. I actually dont mind it one bit and i find it humorous. What id like players to know, as most of what is seen on this forum by myself is reports. And you're right. I do not use this forums to socialize or banter or make suggestions (if so very rare) I use it solely for reporting, as its intended. Whether that be on a bug, player or staff. I don't use it for anything else and never intended to. In the sense of reporting players, im really no different from every staff on this server in regards to upholding the rules of the server, simply because i care about the rules being upheld. I personally feel like im also held to a higher standard with breaking rules. I have over 3000 hours on the server over years and years and have seen a lot of bias against me. Simply because i make reports on wrongdoings does not mean i should be harassed constantly about it. It doesn't bother me but it does show me what type of people these DarkRP players really are. Wanna know why i change my name constantly? Staff quite literally refuse to take my sits. New name means staff wont have some retarded vendetta against me and will actually give me assistance when needed. This isnt some boneheaded response either, ive literally tested it. I've had old staff tell me, staff would talk shit in admin chat about how they refuse to take any sits made by me. If i had it my way, id never have to log into this forum. Like ive said, I only use forums to report players, staff, and bugs, but ive decided to make this thread because its getting to a point of ridiculousness. Staff justifying breaking rules blatantly said in the MOTD and STILL try to argue for themselves. You can say "It was just for fun" or "You were the only one bothered by this" as much as you want but it wont change that you are staff, the one group that is not supposed to break rules and even more you are supposed to uphold the rules and rightously enforce them. The staff are truly filled with the most hypocrtical and childish members of the community that only gains joy from the power that they wrongfully have. None of you have the capability to critically think and look past the surface of issues, which ironically is something staff should be better at then normal players. Its unfortunate how many of you suffer from such a warped perception of the rules and power you have to a point where you are trying to fight against when you blatantly break a rule and somehow, it slides almost every time. If it doesn't slide, you just get "talked to" which does absolutely nothing in the end. Yet when i bring up these issues, im just another guy making stupid reports with no validity. Where is our incentive to want to play and follow rules perfectly if staff cant even do it themselves? The only thing staff can do right is ban obvious minges, other then that you can not do anything that takes a slightest bit of investigation or thought. There are only a few staff members I can say enforce rules properly, but even then I wouldnt consider them good staff members because they are still complicit and allowing their fellow staff to act like this. For those that might read this and say "This post is only negative with no constructive criticism" you are somewhat correct, its because there is truly no point. I truly do not see a solution to these issues, and yes these are issues that the staff team faces, whether you want to believe it or not.

I've also asked this question. I made a discussion shortly after it was added to MOTD changelog. A lot of mods on that thread claimed it was always an implented rule, which is bullshit because that was the first time I've ever seen that written on this forum or MOTD. I think the cop mains in charge just wanted some more action. I don't think any of the communitys opinions were taken into account when this was added as I didn't hear or see anything on the forums about it prior to being added for the first time

I'm not sure if you read my response correctly, I'm assuming you didn't as I never mentioned anything about disliking anyone. The fact that 6 people agreed with a baseless response is absolutely hilarious to me.

I might be more swayed towards thinking this was a good idea if it wasnt only the old, rich, and rpless players supporting this. i also bet the combined value of all who support this is astronomical.

As someone who doesnt base and mainly kidnaps cops, kidnapping is fine if you aren't on CC. Dont rely so much on a CC and you might actually enjoy the server. In fact, kidnapping with a CC is pointless as they can respawn instantly whether or not you give them their box. Just use a kidnapping job and the cool down isnt that bad.

<If you're going to kill someone because they attacked your party member, you need to make sure they know you're together (local chat or voice (not OOC/Advert)). Not doing so will cause confusion and most likely result in a sit which no one wants. (This applies to raiding as well)> Could someone explain this rule to me as apparently i dont understand completely. My party member was warned for RDM for defending his party and hitting his party bind after the person died. Cuntbucket claims its implied in the rules that the bind must be used before attacking but i do not see anything regarding this. From what i can tell, this rule is to simply avoid stupid sits (like the one that was called) from wasting peoples time. If by somehow, its implied that you must hit the bind first, could the rule section get an update to reflect this implication?

ive literally made a post suggesting that this needs to be revised and it got nowhere btw

trying to get anything done here about issues like this is pointless, especially when its usually staff that take advantage of mechanics like this.
