I think its perfectly legal, its like sitting in spec on ze maps, sometimes its the only bearable way to pass the time.

blackout, you're must read everything.
A person is already on the server.
They go into spectate at the end of each round.
They wait until the zombie spawns then use !zspawn to spawn as a zombie.
Before they spawn, they can check to see where people are hiding.
It is not the same thing as joining a server and checking to see where people are, doing what I said above can be done each and every round, so it completely defeats the purpose of hiding in vending machines when cading spots are all taken. It's cheating.
And there are a lot of people that are worried about their rank, so by not only finding people's locations, you can avoid being tagged by other people which means they lose out on a kill, but also now that you know where people are, it can be really easy kills.

I would say if the person is going back to spec every round to spawn as a zombie the next round just to increase rank on the server then thats against the rules, its semi like leaving and rejoining GG to gain levels, they are bypassing being human and getting tagged and the 'death' it takes with it.
If they wanna stay in spawn and wait to get tagged, thats fine. But the other way can be seen as taking advantage of the scoring system.
As for the Zombies having a 'better score' on escape maps, thats probably always going to happen however humans gain points to there rank by winning/surviving the round so its not about getting kills, its about escaping.
These are the words you wish you wrote down.

Also if the person is going into spec every round they either dies or killed themselves. Both of which means you have to kill a whole lot of humans to make up for that death. I almost never play the first round of a new map and spawn as a zombie on the second.

yes i know, that is why i said " some people just dont like being humans on shitty maps. I think its perfectly legal, its like sitting in spec on ze maps, sometimes its the only bearable way to pass the time."
I did not go into detail about how that can be seen as a rankwhore move, and as rosie said, you must die first to be able to do it, but you can leave the game, which i think should be at least kickable as it can be seen as leaving the server to avoid being tagged.

What about sitting in spec to see where people hide then spawning, that's blatant cheating right there, might as well just wall hack.
IBIS
First, most people don't hide without cading, so even if someone is doing that, they should be caded in, not just hiding in a spot where they are easy to get it. Even if it is a bad map. They also have to die in order to do this, which hurts their rank more then spawning anyways.
Second, escape maps shouldn't even count, your trying to escape not hide.
Third, STOP COMPLAINING Kavinsky jr. Any and everything you post is garbage. All you have been doing is whining and complaining. No one cares or even wants to listen to your posts. If its so bad, then LEAVE.

1 - death
5+ - knowing human locations
that is at least a good chance to go 5:1, but I am sure people with better memories than mine could remember more spots, I have a terrible memory and would be lucky to spectate 5 different people in hiding spots and remember how to get to them.
If all the good cading spots are taken, and zombies already spawned, as a last resort people will hide in vending machines, and there are actually quite a few people that do this anyway. So good job, you didn't know this. So someone decides every round to spectate these people that cannot be found by dying at the end of the round and then later spawning as a zombie, just to learn these locations, ya that is unfair, and I consider it cheating.
Like I said, might as well just use a fucking wall hack, thanks for reading and not understanding spasm.

this is an asinine accusation. i know you're referring to myself and a few other players who shall remain nameless until they come forward. you can't really see where everyone is if you're spawning from spec immediately when the 1st zombie spawns, yea maybe i see the general direction where people are heading, but i don't sit around in spec until i see where every single player hides. the reason i get so many kills is because i'm a good zombie. i know where people generally like to hide, and what cades are easy to break and which ones i'd rather just say "fuck that" to. most maps you can pretty easily do a room to room search in in less than a couple minutes, in which case anybody just sitting behind a vending machine or crouching behind a table become easy prey. maps i do this on are horrible, like zm_retard, and a few escape maps where the humans have virtually no chance to win regardless if i was a zombie or not. i have never been told by admin or clan to stop doing it, and when they do tell me, i will gladly stop. i'm sure the same can be said of the other individuals that do this, a few of which ARE admins fyi.
