Yeah, this morning I had a bunch of people talk to me complaining about the ZM stats because they lost so much rank to people who don't even play anymore. I just figured I would come and see if you knew.

One of my theories was that you had upgraded, and now had more room to store stats. I guess that's ruled out now.

Jeimuzu I will have to play with you this summer. I find it hard to believe anyone on Zombie mod is as good as Pooter or Stamp... but I love when people prove me wrong. Send me a private message or post on here when you play. I'd love to see just how good you are....

By the way Pooter is still the best player (without a Mic) that Zombie mod has ever seen!!!! :muffy::muffy::muffy:

I've never played with pooter, but I think it would be really cool for him to come back and play. vlad I know you've played with him but I wanna see it for myself how good he is. Plus why are you not on the ZM server??

pooter was rediculous at this game.. he knew every possible secret.. and oddly enough 90% of the time if hes not the first zombie he will be the last person alive.. i know.. i use to always follow him around when he used to play last year :).. i miss those days :( ...

Pooter was good because he played 8-12 hours everyday. I'm sure that anyone who could dedicate that much time could learn all the secrets and spots to every map.

Everytime I logged on, Pooter was on. Didn't matter what time of day, Pooter was there.

I don't know if the stats page for ZM is wrong. but pooter only played on the IBIS server for a month. if you look at his page it says the first time seen was on june 3rd of 2008 and the last time seen was june 30th 2008. he only played for a month if that thing is correct and yet he still managed to earn that much skill and that many kills??

The stats page is way off... Pooter was a player and an admin on IBIS for much longer than that.

Eth plays when he can camp a vent or tube with a para, or leech off other barricaders, otherwise he doesn't play (or so I've seen/been told by half the regulars). Though he did start doing what I do at times, and become a zombie on escape maps to get tons of kills. But Kavinsky, doing just this all the time, and only for rank (though I'm not sure if he does it for rank or not, or if its even a he..), it takes all the fun out of it. I do it for the fun and the creativity you get from thinking up new barricades.

If your talking about Eth that is..

Ask any regular who plays with me, they know I'm usually the one to survive the longest if I don't choose to be the zombie, or start as one (not trying to seem cocky, sorry if I am). As for knowing the secrets, that just comes from playing alot. I'm fairly sure I know a decent amount of them, though I never use them often.

Try not being cheap (camping in tubes or vents with a para), and finding new places to hold out or barricade. One of the rules are to have fun, I enjoy finding new places to barricade, using a bit of creativity and surviving in places most people would say is impossible. I guess that trait is considered skill.

Yeah thats why I tried to find the best hiding spots instead of cading, its much more fun and suspenseful to hide instead of cade and get kills and to be the last one left wondering if there going to find you before the rounds over. it's just that everyone knows where the best hiding spots are now, either that or they trip over you while parachuting so theres no point in doing so till we get new maps or the parachutes get disabled.

Started copying you? Don't flatter yourself. I started playing on this ZM server long before you have. Most people on the server today don't recognize me because I took a six month hiatus from the server. You can see my old post here (http://www.ibisgaming.com/forums/showthread.php?t=701).

So if I camp in tubes and vents all the time (which I do), what's the difference between that and binding a key to spec so you can get away? I even remember a few times where you've disconnected when I was about to tag you. Obviously those kinds of tactics isn't for rank hoarding right?

The only map I won't play on is Mines of Moria. I've never disconnected off the server for any other map, so I don't know who these "regulars" are that's saying I don't play.

Edit: I take that last comment back. Since we do play Mines of Moria so ridiculously often, it probably does seem like I disconnect half the time.

I just read your older post eth. sounds like playing in ZM last year was tough. But you have to admit one thing, those problems aren't really around anymore. sure the occasional one comes along but for the most part the ZM server has gotten really fun and rules are always enforced and followed. I know that zero has finals and is delayed with all the usual administrative duties of his. But just be ready for the new batch of admins. there is bound to be one abuser in there.

Any time I do join spectate it's usually because someone screws up my barricade, and I don't feel like dying because of some idiot who wouldn't listen or wanted to screw me over. If I do build a barricade by myself, and zombies breach it, I do take the tag.

I have nothing against you, and I wasn't trying to flatter myself. I'm mostly just going by what people have told me. If you read what I said I question myself at least once. Its good to have an old player back in the server but just vent camping or tube camping all the time is a rather boring way to win.
If you d/c, you don't win.

K were not fighting over who's been in ZM the longest, cause i remember when it 1st came out! Summer of 2007, i believe.

Killa B
Pooter
G4ce
Nato
me... best of times.! 14 hours a day during weekends in highschool, that much fun...
Many more, only ones i can remember...

These players were the "best" players according to the old [IBIS 131337] TAG
( if any of you recall, i can only name a few...) but thats when the ZM was amazingly fun...., Hell its still good.
As for ETH he's been around along time, theirs no dought about it. Even though for me he plays so boring, by hiding in what people would call "pussy" spots. I mean if he wants to do it, so be it, if he's having fun who gives a shit. It's all about fun.

The new players, well last 6 months i guess... are not bad at all, really. They bring good competition to the server and new ideas within the game to make it better.

As for people who want high rank, let em at it. As long as their not cheating their way to the top, or being stat whores...
like going to spectate or disconnecting b4 dieing ect...

I can say Jeiz i love you man, but ive seen you hop into spectate a few times that i don't think you should have. I'd much rather see you !ztele.... But that's also against the rules, but dude don't go into spectate anymore just to show that you don't need to cheat your way out of anything to be on top.

ETH dude, your a classic ZM on the server and prob 1 of the better caders around but i do see you do such boring things i wanna scream on my mic telling you to do something fun! Hell i got alot of respect for you man, just some people don't have all the information, and that's why theirs a word called ignorant :icon_mrgreen:

ZM players shouldn't be fighting over bullshit, summers around the cornor which means fuckhole for the ZM.

Don't get me wrong, I love to cade. But I would much rather be bored then logged off for the night pissed off because people keep breaking cades or doing stupid stuff. People will purposely get tagged and screw over everyone in the room. I don't remember this being a problem last summer, yet it's been a giant problem since I started playing again last month.

There's a reason why you don't hear me talk in the ZM server. I use my mic all the time in other servers, but you'll never hear me talk in the ZM server. I simply get too frustrated and I'd just spend the entire time bitching at people.

Get a handful of good admins to control all the idiots in the server and I'll never tube or vent camp.

I agree with you completely about the people who will purposely get tagged and what not, and it has been a problem recently, one that I've noticed at least. Hopefully when I get my admin back, I'll be there to rid the server of barricade breakers, and we can all start enjoying the game to it's fullest.

As for getting pissed off though, (which I admit I do get rather annoyed especially after awhile of continuous cade breakers) I realize that in the end it is all just a game. Besides, the risk, and making the best of people's random shootings, is what makes it fun at times, maybe.

I will do, and have been usually(don't go into spectate anymore just to show that you don't need to cheat your way out of anything to be on top). Just with the exception of going to a barricade spot, someone coming in and ruining everything after I'm half set up, me running out, and basically being screwed because of the person X_X.. Once again, maybe when I get my admin back there will be less of that going on. I had it happen to me just 10 minutes ago or so when I was playing, I made a barricade in Desert Fortress, some guy came up and he stood there. I asked him to go somewhere else and to not shoot the barricade, he shoots it in and runs, and a zombie comes running in. I imagine that's what pisses Eth off.


ZM players shouldn't be fighting over bullshit,

Again, we aren't fighting D=

One last thing! Any chance the [IBIS 131337] tag could be revived? I may not be good enough to join those ranks yet, but maybe eventually!

I thought I was making a difference with the cade breakers and stuff...when I hear cade breaking, I immediately head to spectate, view the victim and deal with the cade breaker accordingly (i.e. freeze [if they throw a grenade, 1 day ban], bans, so forth). I realize now even though if I take out as many cade breakers as I possibly can, there will still be more noobs out there that cade breaks because they don't know the rules or lack common sense. Most of the cade breakers out there aren't assholes who do it intentionally. They just need to learn some proper ettiquette about spots that have been caded already.

Which is why if you want to prevent people from cade breaking to get in your cade or throw a lousy nade, you need to start using a MIC. I can admit that the more intimidating players are the ones with a mic that is commanding (or at least a lovable voice that people can enjoy...like that guy with the midget voice that came into the server about a year ago when I played...LOL).

I understand that not all of them do it on purpose, which is why I usually just froze them and talked to them for a moment to try and teach them if they started messing things up despite asking them to stop on mic and in chat. However, there are those (like the one last night who destroyed my barricade to be an @$$hole) that do deserve to be banned. You are helping Hobo, but you can't be on 24/7, especially the time that I play the most. (1-4 am)

Come to think of it though, I once joined a server which showed the rules the second you joined. And to continue playing, you had to hit 9 to go to the next page, and press 2 to accept the rules, otherwise you would be kicked. That would probably keep a few idiots out. I mean hell, it kept me out, I didn't know what the heck it was XD..

So it gave me a better understanding who to cade with. If i saw [IBIS NOOB] I would be like, shit i'm not cading with these fags and so on... The system did work good. The more time you play the server, the better you should be at the game.

It was like...

[IBIS NOOB]
[IBIS REGULAR]
[IBIS SPECIAL]
[IBIS MASTER]
[IBIS 13373]

something like that, it was fun times.

james is right, the admins can't be on all the time. there has to be someway to make people accept the rules and read them before they join. it might seem like a hassle to get in the server but it could really keep all the people who want to cause trouble out. granted that there is nothing anyone of us can do to keep a trouble maker out.

Jeimuzu
05-05-2009, 08:55 PM
You both do a good job at keeping the rule breakers down to a minimum Inthebutt and Holy, so I do appreciate it sincerely, along with all the other admins which keep the server running smoothly. Just wish I could stay as an admin to help out though.

Another thing that would help is the votemute, and an addition of votekick, and/or voteban. Though the voteban may only be 5 minutes to an hour probably. If you do decide to add this then make the numbers 1 and 2 count as nothing, and to answer yes or no it would be 3 or 4. '>.> Damn one and two pressers.

And I'll be messaging Zero about the clan tags, as you suggested Holy. Maybe he'll decide to add them back. I know you, Hobo, Inthebutt, and maybe 5 other people should have the 131337 tag, it would almost be like saying, "Listen to them, they know as much as the admins."

I also ask that no one closes this thread any time soon, a lot of good ideas are coming to the surface here.

I liked the tags.. I would watch players with higher tags longer before punishment, with which I could determine warrant before acting on before some that wouldn't deserve b/c I just didn't know them. im a pretty good judge of character but it certainly was helpful for me.

They were great and I continued to use mine for some time but new admins started getting bitchy that we would be confused with admins.... LOL oh well.

Those new admins must have been a little... slow? No offense though.. If players ended up having respect, followed the rules, and listened to the experienced IBIS 31337 players, then wouldn't that be a good thing?

I learned nearly all the cading spots on the classic maps (high school, roy, panic v2, etc) from following around IBIS 31337's back then.

The thing about back then though was that you could help people more often (leaving a cade open a bit longer so someone could get in, or other things like that) because the admins dealt with things more seriously. The windows on the cliffside house on roy highway for example, if you were telling someone not to get near them, then they did, and got tagged after being told not to do whatever it was that got them tagged, they were booted.

Now if you try and help someone, it almost always results in your death, so the only way noobs learn spots is to either get lucky and spawn next to someone to follow, gang up and go to the spot where the last survivors were the previous round (almost always ends up being the general area of the zombie spawn), or just to use trial and error. But when they're forced to use the last option they usually just break the rules and cade break to get in somewhere.

Exactly. Once a bunch of people die, they look at the player who has the most kills (eth was one of those people the other night) and go to that exact spot, thinking they will have a free reign to kills and be "super leet".

Even when I pick a spot that is relatively good the next round five people decide to join me. And end up getting themselves killed because they don't know how to defend the spot, causing me and everyone who DOES know what they are doing to die in the process.

Even when I pick a spot that is relatively good the next round five people decide to join me. And end up getting themselves killed because they don't know how to defend the spot, causing me and everyone who DOES know what they are doing to die in the process.

I only got to [IBIS Specialist] when i played, i wish the stats ranking would be thrown out and those titles brought back


I love the [IBIS 13373] tag, it was based on the time you played in the server.

So it gave me a better understanding who to cade with. If i saw [IBIS NOOB] I would be like, shit i'm not cading with these fags and so on... The system did work good. The more time you play the server, the better you should be at the game.

It was like...

[IBIS NOOB]
[IBIS REGULAR]
[IBIS SPECIAL] <---
[IBIS MASTER]
[IBIS 13373]

Started copying you? Don't flatter yourself. I started playing on this ZM server long before you have. Most people on the server today don't recognize me because I took a six month hiatus from the server. You can see my old post here (http://www.ibisgaming.com/forums/showthread.php?t=701).

So if I camp in tubes and vents all the time (which I do), what's the difference between that and binding a key to spec so you can get away? I even remember a few times where you've disconnected when I was about to tag you. Obviously those kinds of tactics isn't for rank hoarding right?

The only map I won't play on is Mines of Moria. I've never disconnected off the server for any other map, so I don't know who these "regulars" are that's saying I don't play.

Edit: I take that last comment back. Since we do play Mines of Moria so ridiculously often, it probably does seem like I disconnect half the time.

Ok I have made a change so that if your zombie activity level goes below 1% you will be removed. I have also increased that % to represent 20 days of gameplay rather than 15 to protect players on vacation.

Changes should take effect in the system by tomorrow at the latest.

So does Potato get to keep the 2000 skill he gained when he wasn't even playing or because of the ranking glitch? If so can I have 2000 skill for free? =D

ZERO
05-25-2009, 06:56 PM
The skill changes reflect the numbers when reprocessed after removing the old players from the stats. If a given player had a large amount of kills on players who were not removed there score is logically going to skyrocket. Currently the numbers and positions "appear" to match up correctly overall.

Nice, so older players like Pooter and I get deleted because the younger players can't live up to our scores.

Maybe we were still on the list ever so often because we tried to get onto the server?

I can barely get on some nights, and I might try once before going to a pub or heading back over to Left4Dead to deal with the texture hacking, melee scripting teenagers.

Pooter's score was never 5000 in the time I was here, it was only 2000, which I passed. But if Zero didn't remove the inactive players, he'd probably run out of room to store ranks after awhile.

Though if he wishes to leave the top 10 greatest players of Ibis ZM up there, I wouldn't mind. It would be a challenge.

But yeah, I have your problem. I can't get into the server sometimes. However, I found out if you mass join, it lets you in after about 7 tries. Not sure why.

As for Holy Shit, hey dude, ask Zero. Between my first post which was directed solely at Eth, welcoming an old friend back, and the past few, I haven't been around the IBIS forums (or IBIS altogether) for close to 5 or 6 months. I have no issues with Zero, I think he does a wonderful job, but that slack-jawed yokel named NYS C.O. thinks because he's full IBIS and he's badass, he can do whatever the fuck he wants when he wants. No discipline and no backbone what-so-ever. If you don't believe me, ask the C.O.'s what they do to inmates that are unruly off-camera. If he had some true testicular fortitude, he'd do it on camera. The only reason I had come back here was a) word around the grape vine said there was some funny shit to be read in the forums and b) I heard Eth came back and I wanted to say hi.

Looks like I was wiped out. Still has my original "first seen" date, but all other stats are gone.

I remember logging in back in April, playing for several early mornings trying to fight insomnia and checking after the third or fourth day to see where I was on the stats. Pretty sure I was still on the top 12, Pooter was at the top. I even remember seeing Pooter at #1 when logging in last week on the MOTD screen, but I bet his stats are gone too.

You keep talking like you're a fucking angel and like you have yet to throw around insults, you whiny little bitch hypocrite. You're a fucking moron. How does it feel to have a lower IQ than a hick?

I'm not an inmate lover, I'm just pointing out the fact that if you had any fucking balls, you'd do the shit you and your brethren do on camera instead of off-camera, you pussies. (Oh but wait...to deal with unruly inmates would require you to get off your lazy fucking ass and not take a nap on shift...huh...). I know plenty of CO's, but none of them are cocky stuck up douche-cocks such as yourself.

As for IBIS, I already admitted months ago and in my last post (IF YOU WOULD FUCKING READ THEM LIKE I'VE ALREADY POINTED OUT, DIPSHIT), I think Zero runs a great show. He just has disorderly little pieces of shit like NYSCO that think they're actually in charge of the show. You think we didn't do our parts as admins in the IBIS ZM server, go right the fuck ahead and think it. At the end of the day, you're still an idiot. Zero didn't take admin away from us because we were fucking off with administrative privileges. He took it away because we stopped playing Source and stopped paying him.

And no, I won't ever come back to IBIS. Sorry Zero. Shitbag #1 (alias NYSCO) ruined that for a group of us. I'm almost certain pooter will stand with Cujo and myself.

Ooooh ouch, that hurt so much...because you don't know what the hell you're talking about as always. I'm only nothing and nobody to your servers... Oh wait these are Zero's... My head wasn't split open in a fight where I received numerous "kicks to the noggin", although, I should say, if one were a survivor to that, it would be something to brag about, no? Besides the fact, if I'm such a nobody, why the fuck are you droning over one picture that you saw after you and your stalker boyfriends went on my myspace profile to get every little nook and cranny covered to harass me over the internet (circa...6 months ago???)? Are you that gay that you saved it to your computer and you incessantly masturbate to that one image of the back of my head?
