Fix the spawn, reset stats. Has been done before, trust me.
Sometimes you do not incur a death from going to spectate.
There are no rules being broken unless you ghost people out with the spectate in it's current form.
I have seen Venom disconnect myself to avoid tag, don't lie for his ass.
To play follow the leader and do the same thing you see is wrong for your own gain is just fucking asinine.
The Zspawn system in it's current form can and does lead to what is seen as stat padding, although atm it is part of the game mechanics.
After the fix I don't see this as a problem anymore, also for the ghosting. I also hope stats get reset along with it. Stats are worthless in ZM after not only these types of incidents, but a few other incidents.
