Disconnecting to keep score.. (Read zm players)

Why dont we just rid of all of the IBIS rankings?? Hey, why see how well you stack compared to others??

Im sorry hobo. I dont mean to throw myself at you, but it is annoying almost tagging you and you leave. I really have thought about banning you for that. Ranks are there to judge yourself against others. Not to be a bitch so you stay number 1. If you really are that good, you would be number 1.

If you need any any ideas on how to torment Koolayed let me know. Soon I'll be an admin hopefully, then I can join you in helping to tame/torment Koolayed. And when you do ban him for 7 days then I'm going to personally thank you.

Anyway, whether the ranking system can be seen in game or not, it was probably wrong of me to ask Zero to activate the rank command, even though it helped me be more lazy. So far it has had both a negative and positive impact on the server, but more negative unfortunately. But I will stand by the idea of being tagged by a zombie not effecting your score, I would then almost guarantee that once players learned this, they would stop zteleing/disconnecting/changing teams.

P.S. Zero check the admins that still have to be activated. Hopefully this time the right steam ID is in there for me.

That is because all the skill and points are relative. So when ever any individuals rank or skill changes it effects the rank and skill of all other players.

Another idea I have had is to develop a mod in game that will fire an event if a player completes a special accomplishment this trigger can be picked up by the stats and bonus points could be awarded to the player. This could cause players to focus on special achievements as a way to improve score and thus will switch up game play a bit more. Examples include:
Turn 30 players into a zombie in 10min
Kill 100 zombies in one map
Stay alive as a human for 5 rounds
ect ect...

Basically achievements?

Cool, so kind of mimicking the xbox live achievement thing. I like that. I think a lot of us are starting to get kind of bored. Well at least I am. Achievements would very much revitalize my interest in Zm

I really think humans should have a delay on !ztele. I understand that people get stuck or want to leave a cade and it is useful so i think if you write !ztele you should have to wait a few seconds for it to actually teleport you. This would stop the constant !zteleing from zombies since they would have to wait.

At the same time, when you are a human you can get stuck in a barricade and to prevent shooting their cade, you have to ztele. That could waste precious time if a zombie is nearby.

Leave the ztele as it is.

Ya i was thinking about that for a while. I figured that if you were only a little bit stuck that !zstuck would fix the problem, also that if the time is only 5 seconds it might not be that large of an issue. This has been an issue for as long as i played on the server i love how the rank point system is working out atm but i would love to see a better idea on the !ztele system. Maybe an object detection script to see if you have any part inside another object, but i am guessing that would be to difficult and resource straining.

Fish, you have every right to feel this way and I was surprised I wasn't banned for that. Again, after putting much thought on my stance in this, I have seen how good players can be dirty players with the ranking system. I can assure you that it will not happen to you ever again and I am deeply sorry for it. Instead of having the ranking system, why not keep the achievements and perhaps make more achievements.

Or as mentioned before, remove the easily accessible "rank" and "top10" at the very least.
