ChefSoda Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) In-Game Name ChefSoda Your Steam ID STEAM_0:0:409608916 Why were you banned or warned? failbasing Why should you be unwarned/unbanned? It was an honest mistake from someone who actually took the time to read the basing rules beforehand and ensure compliance from staff before actually copying and using the base. Who warned/banned you? How long were you warned or banned for? I was warned for failbasing. The exact provision of the rules that I have been accused of breaking is "Your base must not exploit a head or foot glitch. If you can shoot their head, they must be able to shoot yours. (includes any other body part, don't loophole please)" under the base building rules. To clarify the circumstances around this warning, I built a snipers nest that had cover where I could duck down and not be shot, but I also could not shoot through the cover. I was unaware this specific geometry constituted a glitch. I am serious about maintaining compliance with basing rules, so before I even copied my build to my dupes I asked Steve to verify that the build was compliant with the rules. While we primarily discussed material visibility (which I corrected immediately), I believed that the physical layout was also approved. I had no clue that building a base that had areas where you can duck your head to take cover against oncoming fire was against the rules and as I told Steve in our sit. I will ensure compliance with every other build as far as all fair basing rules are concerned. The rule violation was completely unintentional. Furthermore, I don' t think there was any way Delta could've possibly known that this very niche rule was being broken because he didn't even make it through enough of my base to even reach this section. I know it is just my word against his, but in all seriousness, I wasn't even shooting from the zone with cover that was supposedly where the 'failbase' aspect even came into play. When I defended in a 1 v 1 against him I was just moving around and not using any cover as he caught me by surprise. I found it strange that not a minute after successfully defending my base I was being votebanned for "failbasing". Keep in mind there were like 4 active staff on the server, so I don't know how Delta was able to get away with abusing the voteban mechanic with impunity, but thats neither here nor there. Notwithstanding, TL;DR: I had absolutely no 'malicious intent" of exploiting a head/foot glitch when I was building my base. I was simply trying to build a competitive, fair base. I even checked with staff before I copied my base to ensure compliance before hand. This was an honest mistake, just like Delta's mistake of abusing the voteban system, and I would just like to maintain a clean record on this server.

ChefSoda Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 45 minutes ago, 1-800-Suicide said: Using a barrier prop to block certain parts of your body without making only your legs hittable and the opponent can hit you is standard practice and has always been allowed. The guy who made a sit seems to be maliciously reading the rules in bad faith and the moderator who warned for that was not correct.

turfburn Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Chef had a staff member check his base to ensure it complied to basing rules. Not only that but with the clip provided, I can easily see that the "fail base" sniper's nest, didn't allow him to target raiding players that can't also attack him. Any time you could target a raider they could also target you. 14 hours ago, Deltarino said: notice how it also says includes any other body part , since u can hit my legs and chest i cannot hit ur while you peak the only limb i can hit back is ur head and thats the failbase part of the base , steve should have educated you on this and the way i knew is due to the kill cam mechanic of the game idek where you're going with this statement. in the clip I can easily tell that, when he's standing, he is able to shoot you, and you're able to shoot him. When he's crouched, he can only shoot you after you're passed defenses, in which you're also able to shoot him. Steve educated him on exactly what was needed considering this base was completely in line with the standards put on a base. If we nitpicked this base due to Delta's claim, we'd have to nitpick every base on the server, as Chef's defense strategy is common place. Your base must not exploit a head or foot glitch. If you can shoot their head, they must be able to shoot yours. (includes any other body part, don't loophole please This base doesn't break that rule. When he can shoot your head, you can shoot his. The rule is made specifically to stop the head and foot glitch bases with props that are a half foot off the ground or below the head to stop people from seeing certain fading door attacks on them. I'm +! for warn removal. Link to comment https://forums.titsrp.com/topic/24520-failbase-warn-appeal/#findComment-173020 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miami mint vape Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (includes any other body part, don't loophole please this part means if he from any point in the peak can hit my chest and legs i must be able to hit his , his clip isnt very good at showing this but when he hides behind "models/props_c17/concrete_barrier001a.mdl" i cant hit his legs but he was able to , the only body part i could hit was his head 1 Link to comment https://forums.titsrp.com/topic/24520-failbase-warn-appeal/#findComment-173021 Share on other sites More sharing options...
