This vent rule has never been pursued very far, I think all clan members and admins have given up on enforcing this rule about two days after its proposal. Much too hard to enforce, and clan members, admins, and regulars alike do not acknowledge its existence. It's hardly fair to say that there are two admins who had "abused this spot." as the rule is ineffective

Most other servers are unlimited ammo servers, which means one person would be able to win solo in most any crouch spot; thus, there is a need for regulation of crouch spots on these servers. Limited ammo, time after time, has screwed such spots over. From what I've seen, IBIS is the only popular servers that implements limited ammo (excluding escape servers). Plaguefest and Firewall, the only two zombie mod servers that I see are never empty are unlimited ammo servers.

The server is far from "missing rules." These powerful barricades only exist because of the high amount of skilled players we have on the server (unlike other servers) and the sharing of barricade tips among the population of regular players. IBIS zombie mod players are able to develop their barricade skills better than those of pF and FW because their settings allow heights and "iron curtains" to be sufficient enough. And that's why you see some ingenious barricading techniques(and barricade breaking methods on the zombie's side) developed on the IBIS server. People will continue to use these spots because it's obvious that it has a high probability of survival. You have to consider, what goes through a player's mind. The goal is to survive, so would they follow their pride or clear logic?

And yes, zombies can do something. The reason many trains and deformeds fail is because of a broken chain of command. They climb over each other and prevent any progress. With proper teamwork, enough zombies, and some deformeds, that spot will fall.
