Players, although you may not want to accept it, IBIS servers have rules that are there to make the game more enjoyable for EVERYONE. We have listed all the rules in the following threads that you should at least look over:

Zmod Rules (http://www.ibisgaming.com/forums/showthread.php/5831-Zm-Rules-v2.8)
Server Rules (http://www.ibisgaming.com/forums/showthread.php/495-General-Server-Rules-1.7)
Illegal Cade Spots (http://www.ibisgaming.com/forums/forumdisplay.php/60-Illegal-Cading-Spots)

Whether it's because players don't WANT to adhere to them, or because they don't know they're there, please follow them to make the server more enjoyable. Why players want to cade illegal spots is beyond me. You sit in a room, defending nothing, gaining no kills and watch the timer tick down. This is why players prefer Escape over Cade maps, there is nothing to admire about that kind of cading philosophy. By allowing a margin of chance where you may die, gives the sense of a "thrill" or urgency, thus livening the experience and making it more enjoyable.

This was brought up because of an illegal spot that was abused over, and over, and over. No one likes the map because every-time players use these spots, it drains the fun from the zombies, and the thrill is taken from the humans.

Illegal Cade Spot: Behind Trash Can

Demo: 6850

Ticks:
22500: MEMEME cades crouch spot
44000 – 48000: Hyppogryph deliberately cades behind trash can (illegal barricade)
63000: MEMEME cades behind trash can
63500: Cybersled and Hyppogryph break the illegal cade
64000: Hyppogryph and MEMEME cade spot back up…
68000: Hyppogrphy rescues Cybsled from cade, then barricades behind trash can again
76500: Chef joins, warns players not to cade crouch/trashcan spot
76900: Venom chimes in with how it’s not supposed to be caded
77500: Cybsled “You picked this gay map, deal with it”
78600: Chef warns players again that it is an illegal spot
79500: MEMEME acts by uncading (only one to act)
84000: Chef warns at beginning of following round
84000: StealthHand cades behind trash can
93200 – 96300: Egg cades behind trash can
104000: MEMEME and Raitaro do not uncade barricade
106500: MEMEME uncades trash spot

I'm not seeking reprimanding for these players, but rather using them as examples. Look at their game-play, read their dialog, understand their thoughts about the game during this time. Are they enjoying themselves? Would you enjoy being in those cades and doing nothing?

Stop it Stop it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :twak::twak::twak:
The people that you are trying to get too are not going to read this.
The problem is that the ghetto kids don't go to school not that they don't study hard enough.
What you should do (as in all admins) make the server into a friendly environment AND encourage those people to join the IBIS community.
If we do this enough we could turn the ghetto into a paradise.

Some players do look on the forums, despite not having an account (or perhaps don't choose to comment as often as others).
Also, the ghetto is referring to something another member said when he described "IBIS City", not so much any actual ghetto.

But yes, basically we do want more participation in the community (while keeping posts useful, relevant, and intelligent from all users). It is not only the admins that need to make the servers into a better place. Admins only make players' lives hell when they break rules or do something disrespectful. Respect can go both ways, but it needs to be earned imo. While I'm no longer an admin, I believe I'm reasonably cheery when playing. But conversely, if someone breaks someones cade, spams on the mic, or somehow violates rules, that's when we have issues.

dafuq did I just read?

Anywho, Hyppogryph should know better than that, he's been in here for a while, he knows better than that. Cybersled ehhh maybe? He's been playing for a while now, but MEMEME does NOT fucking listen (although I only played with him for like 2-3 days).

I will keep an eye out for them Chef.
