a new kind of dumbass

a private invite only zm server would remedy this.

what, and have it just like the pub? that would kill the IBIS zm experiance.

While there is a ton of morons out there (me included) the best solution would either get admin or wait untill more ppl get reserved spots so when they log in the morons would be booted one by one.

so in short... tell your friends, get them hooked (like drug dealers) and convince them to get reserved spots.

I know what you mean Echo. I had the same thing happen to me last time I played ZM. Some random guy came in, and acted like he owned the place while I was in the middle of setting up the barricade. I was so tempted to type rank.. Instead I let him build the cade, and watched him get tagged.. Got him and the invading zombie stuck and killed them both, and built the cade myself. Was pretty funny actually.

As for a private ZM server?.. Naw. I heard that was what gs-zm(or whatever) was basically. And they obviously aren't around anymore.

What seems to make the current ZM such a success is the mix of newcomers, regulars, and pro admins. It keeps the servers all alive.

Though most of those admins have gone off to college.. X_X I need admin again.

I mean 2 servers, the regular ibis one, and an unmarked one, invite password protected one.


it'd be nice to have more than 40% of the team to actually know what to do and what not to do, rather than having abunch of annoying people around who fuck up your shit for fun.

[yours' truely]

You know, as much time as you spend in there, you should get admin. You'd finally be able to mute every child that uses a mic, and keep the maps going to good ones.

yeah i have admin. but it seems like every fucking person has to voice their opinion about every thing an admin does. i think we should make a rule that you cant question an admin's actions. They can do it privately or on the forums but not in a public game. It just makes newbies think that they can walk over admins.
for instance i gave a 1 hour ban to some one who broke my cade. and someone, a regular, told me that it was to much. He said that since i had not warned the cade breaker i should have only warned him or kicked him. I believe that what i did was well within reason. I consider the rules as the warning for cadebreaking. I almost gave the breaker a day ban.

Echo, people have to ask questions in order to learn sometimes. As I said to the new admin, freeze rule breakers and explain things to them instead of banning. However, if they don't reply or acknowledge, or are disrespectful if they do, then it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to ban them for a short period of time.

If they don't believe you though about certain rules or whatever, send them to the forums and watch them be ripped apart by Inthebutt, Turtles, and a lot of the others, or have them type !rules in-game.

I'll tell you though, as long as you remember every rule and the ToS by heart, and follow it, you won't have any problems, unless your too harsh about it. There won't be a single admin abuse thread that will be counted against you.

If there is a problem with a larger group however, you should definitely come to the forums and let it be known.

Fail fact.

[Jeimuzu]

Orly? What would make that fact true?

And what's the true story 'bout them? This was all before my time, so I really don't know. I'm still trying to figure out why pooter left if he was such a great player.
