  1. Nipping it in the bud here. Any issues previously posted are being discussed in the relevant sections.

    This is a discussion about the sk rules so please keep it to that. Thanks for coming to the forums and asking about them :)

  2. Hey there.

    The rules are enforced so heavily on some maps, like Beach, because we have idiots that just do whatever they want then feign ignorance or innocence. This is why chances are few and far between. We give the benefit of the doubt to newer players but not to regulars. I'm not saying this is your case but this is just in general. For the map in question a TM member usually ends up babysitting to make sure there isn't any spawn killing, as it can be devastating on this map for axis. I can 100% tell everyone that not one person likes to sit in spec and watch people in case rules are broken, not one of us likes to have to warn again and again and again, not one of us likes to have to kick people ... or worse. We're here to play ET.

    Admins will check the logs and so on as per usual regarding any complaints against us. We will get back to you in due course.

  3. It's the first poll I've did for a while so I made it an easy one for me lol. Maybe next time I'll see about adding a silly map (Cortex, GoldenDunk or some frag map. Something silly but not too long). I think people would kill me if I added Minas back, even though it's like the 2nd best map in ET.

    Insert small text here

  4. Hey everyone. So we asked you guys and you answered - you want these polls back to choose your maps. There's been a lot of suggestions over the last month and I can't add them all to the poll otherwise you'll be picking from like 75 maps so I've narrowed it down a little. I have no idea how many we will add or remove so we'll see how voting goes. Below are the links to the maps in the poll if you're not familiar with them.

    The poll will be up until next Saturday so tell your friends. Happy voting :)

    Thanks for the explanation Spyhawk. Maybe the solution is to try to populate campaign server with players from main by advertising. Especially in peak times. Win win for all.

    Would you like to me coax people from ETL2 to another server? Would the Nitmod regulars like me poaching their players away? Probably not. People are free to play where they enjoy themselves but we aren't going to advertise one server over another nor try to pull people away from where they like to be. When the main server is full we redirect to our third most popular server. We also will recommend any other TM server if that is the settings a player would prefer.

    Thank you so much for the elaboration.

    Next thing to do is uploading the new build in our TM-server right? Then see what happens and possibly the 'issues' with the syringe (and hitboxes) are resolved. If not I also see another possibility... your second raised point about things falling apart right and left due to 'overpopulation' of the server.. I know we have a busy server with a lot of slots. I really like that, but if that means it's less reliable, we might need to consider reducing to 36 (or even 'safe' 32) slots eh? That's not a decision for me to make of course, but if more people start to notice behavior that they don't like, we might really want to consider downgrading the slots.

    Dunno how the others think about this?

    We won't update the main server going forward until we can guarantee the database will not have to be reset again. It isn't fair to people who actually like doing prestige nor those who really don't want to level skills again and again. We won't increase or decrease the slots on the main server either at the moment. As far as I know ETL2 will receive the updates the devs push out and that is also a cosy 26+4 slots so things won't "fall apart left and right" for the devs.

  6. Aye the survivor is armed with a luger and a knife. Go survive.

    An infected only has a knife (which can also be thrown once or twice I think) and also has infinite stamina. Go hunt.

    Gets kinds scary and overwhelming when you're among the last alive and you have 15 infected swarming at you :D 

  7. Hey there.

    The admins had a chatter and we took our time looking in to this. We checked the logs spanning roughly an hour as well as a demo and come to our conclusion. Pharaoh you did indeed spawn kill and Jess took appropriate steps to stop something as devastating as a mortar sking. Before being kicked you were warned 4 times to stop your spawn killing and in my books that is quite generous.

    You then come back to the server later on and complained in main chat, something which we highly discourage. Jess requested you come to the forums but you continued in main chat, complaining and disrespecting an admin. We understand you were upset but this isn't acceptable. We much prefer issues be brought to the forums like you have eventually done.

    Please note one of the rules on the server: "NO insulting, disrespecting or swearing! This will result in a !mute/!kick/!ban without being warned beforehand." This led to your second kick.

     

    We encourage you to check the rules regarding heavy weapons spawn kill if you intend to use the mortar again Pharaoh. In brief, this is from the rules page on the forums, that last part applies to you.

    Spoiler

    Fixed (normal) spawns

    Spawnkill on fixed spawns in not allowed, with any kind of weapons, on our servers. This includes spawncamping at the spawnexits. There is no legit reason in which you are allowed to spawnkill other players. As a note, mortaring near an spawnexit is also not allowed!
