First and foremost thank you for keeping FFA COD5 alive...... Your server is awesome, not only from a quality of game play but the maps you constantly rotate. That takes allot of work to keep things interesting and not repetitive.... Now on to the subjects at hand..... If someone could just provide clarification for everyone for the 2 issues that surfaced last night in game. The map was Balistock; 1) First, a sniper was reprimanded for camping at the tank spawn area and shooting folks going for the tanks. I don't think the player thought he was doing anything wrong because it is in the field of play not in a spawn area of players. 2) Second, another person was reprimanded for taking control of the tanks and camping the tank spawn with the tank. The comment was it was a spawn area and the tanks had to move out instead of staying in the tank spawn and controlling. Once again, not a player spawn but the tank spawn.... I feel this presents another area of challenge for players to conquer in lieu of just running and gunning. A king of the hill scenario. I know it's one of Barnsey's favorite thing to do and I enjoy the challenge of trying to get him.... The cool thing is if you don't want to participate then you don't have to go over there because you don't spawn near it. It's kinda like a little war in itself......If someone could please post a ruling on this because is was disruptive to the server last night.... Regards, Dog Thanks again for the good times!!!

If they do, please get Discord off of web site here and go in and get a game admin to take care of the person bitching. Yes it is fine on the map that you are talking about to keep the tank in the tank spawn. There is no person spawn on that side of the map that I know of. The sniper that is shooting people from over there,I don't even see how he could stay there long with the tanks that sit in that area. This is fine also, if that is what that player wants to do. We are coming up with some thing to do about the constantly bitching people on the servers. Still in progress right now. Doesn't mean that they might not get kicked for it right now though.

Honestly, I spend a ton of time on the server, sometimes toooo much according to the wife but I don't hear too much complaining. The typical hacking or auto-weapon complaints. This seemed to be a one time thing by this person. I think if we or someone could have told him " Hey tank spawn is fair game" then it would have stopped.... Problem solved, we now have this post to reference..... Game on..... Edited January 21, 2016 by DogYears

Being new to the maps I didn't know where the spawn points were. Anyway switching to XI cod5 freeze server, one item I like is 'Spawn killing is ok'. I don't have to worry about it, and it's put out there from the start so everyone is aware.. Awards

I'm sure you will always get someone who complains about it I guess. I am usually the first one to say that spawn killing is allowed.Always fun shooting you! Thanks for bringing it up! see you in game! Awards

If not I'll raise that too. This is cutting into my drinking time. LOL :beerbig: HarryWeezer, deerejon, djMot and 5 others 8

LOL :beerbig: I like what you're doing here, @@2_MANY_BEERS, so don't get me wrong, but I seem to remember looking at a "heat map" of spawn points for a map (@@Labob - was that you that posted it?) and there were not many open areas that would qualify as spawn free zones. Also, maybe some maps are more spawn zone heavy than others. I'm interested in how this plays out and how it's received. BTW, I was looking to add knife throwing back into DM1 for 'ya, but a search for "knife" in all the cfg files turned up nothing. Do you happen to remember what the setting is called?

It's proving to be quite entertaining, especially when one spawns into another player's artillery! I hope people don't read too much into the "punishment" as even we Admins fall foul of this from time to time. Awards
