The problem with ZM the 800lb gorilla.

[acolyte_to_jippity]

ZERO will see a lot of me slapping myself so i fall to my death

and an epic slap-knife fight between me an...was it tastycakes?

[&&toasties]

I bet its because you are a girl.

But seriously, how do you get fucked over because these are the things we are trying to change.

I meant in cading.

Like I'll try to go somewhere and noobs follow me because I wear our tag, and they fuck up my cade, and I can't fix it in time before I get tagged.

That's how.

1. rules are a must. thank you anx for being proactive on that.

2. Cading spots.. alot of cading spots people think are immpossible, are infact possible to break into. It seems immpossible when you combine 4 veteran ZM players and 30 mindless retards counter acting what you are doing to get into a cade.

3. All in all i think the best way to "help" zm is to have people who are responsible and can set a good example play in the ZM server.
i.e. Anex, rezel, james. I have been a little more active as well.

ZM is like a runaway puppy. it isnt going to be hard to rope now that we have clan members playing in there. An soon enough the senior admin system. Only a retarded admin would abuse when clan is there.

if there is anything i can do to help please let me know. Regarding ANYTHING ZM related. ill re-review the list of rules and bump the cade spot thread

also, i feel like this process will run alot more smooth if we keep the post relevant. We arnt hear to converse about our days, we are here to make ZM as amazing as it used to be.

also anex can you make and sticky the rules in a diffrent thread?

We are still drafting. Rezel and I just got done doing a more comprehensive listing and we need to get it ok'd with zero before we go ahead and make a sticky. He should be posting the second draft here shortly... he went to go get pizza.

some of the rules seem a little unclear, these are all offensive actions correct?
what about for the blocknig people from crawling in tubes.. just make it a universel 2 per tube rule?

i also fixed what i thought was a typo =P

[acolyte_to_jippity]

wait, you list situations when things are allowed an not allowed in same phrasing and place. there's no differentiation.

are we not allowed to block someone from entering cade when it's full?

[ZERO]

As for the programing side of things I am planning to program my own map vote system from scratch that will SOLVE all map voting related problems for good. I am also thinking about updating the grenades so that you can put the fire out if you go in water.

Obviously there are many more things that need to be done but the good news is that with the new clan members we can look at more things faster.
