Rank whoreing on zm: The good and the bad.

[Pl@YwithM3]

I want to consult about the weapon weights as I feel that they have become unbalanced in recent times due to people wanting to rank in them. You have no idea how many times I have died because some fucking asshole wants to use an UMP to cade.

y do i get the feeling that comment was subtly directed at me?

Not at all, though I honestly think the pump should be ranked slightly lower since it has a higher damage output + knockback over the auto-shotty. I'm talking about the P90, TMP, and Zombie kills.

hahahah +1.75 per kill is crap anyways; blade u can make each pump shotty kill worth -50 rank pnts then. ill PROUDLY be placed 1000+ by the end of the week

Yes force people to play every map and not to stay in spec longer then 2 minuts before kicked of the server. Rank whoring is going too far atm, the number one atm and the last number one we had only play to be on position 1 not to play the zombie mod. Look I play on fragmasters once in a while office and there you see a ranking based on true skill not this lousy cheap ranking we see on the zmod these days.

Fallen you play to brag/show off whatever reasons I don't care I'm fine with you being no.1 although your not the best player out there the amount of time you spend on gaining that rank is already achievement on it's own. You and some other people make it so we playing little town and other crappy maps so much and if i have to record it all to proof it we will have hours to watch which is not worth it, beside your stats page say enough.

So my advice your number one, make screen shot and start to play before you got addicted to this rank whoring and let us play less little town and more escape maps or other zm maps expect the easy cheap ones

I did play escape maps when the players could win as a human but now they get raped by the zombies due to lack of teamwork.
So you would not consider someone one of the best if they beat mako reactor at extreme which is one of the hardest escape maps we have on this server? I have seen that get beat once this was by me,jolloy and some random person but if the server had better team work i would play mako,predator and minas again.

I also am 1st or 2nd in hours for those because i like playing them when there are alot of players. When i started playing wcs more awhile back all i saw in zmod was escape maps almost all the time with there being maybe 1 decent cade map.

Also you should half my hours beacuse thats probably the amount of time i spend in spec and if you cannot be bothered to work that out it comes to 844.5

[taz1stP]

we should make the para kills worth nothing almost b/c i mean cmon u get a cade with about 3 people with them and know wtf they are doing its over.

[TheFallen927]

By cheap you mean most of the good ones which include the following: zm_miniature_room_v1,zm_lila_panic_beach,zm_cityli fe_V2,zm_lila_panic_v2,zm_penumbra_extended,zm_sno opie_711_final_fixed1,zm_420_beachstrike_b2,zm_des ert_fortress_v2,zm_tx_highschoolbeta7,zm_pulse_tem pleofdoom_final,zm_csk_4corners_b2 and many more. The point im getting at here is any map can be considered cheap.

As a regular rankwhore, I think that forcing people to play all the maps when they join the server isn't right. I have fun rank whoring, killing zambies in rankwhore maps.. is there a problem with that? I hate some maps so I don't play them, wouldn't that be going against a player who wants to have fun?

As for the spectate option, I believe there shouldn't be any spectators allowed when the server is full, but if it isn't, back to my first argument about people having fun playing the maps they like.

I agree with the balance points in maps though, if there was a way to make surviving as a human in maps give points or something, then I'd play more hiding maps. But it could get boring just playing a hide-n-seek zombie server.

I wouldn't mind the zm maps getting their points lowered either lol.
