Ibis Steam Contest #2
Canceled till further notice
I read people's post purely for amusementI find people's frustration and failure quite funny... after all it's all just a game... you'll die early if you take it too seriously. ^^
Arrogance - only fags and assholes have them... You know who you are.
Back then Autumn, you were about to ban someone for not zteleing out when they became a zombie. Later on you learned that it was just a common courtesy. It's something a lot of, if not all players and admins should follow, out of respect alone, not because it's a rule.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
Ok not trying to start anything but somthing just occured to me...
Isnt the point of the zombie to turn other humans? If you !ztele out isnt that the same as not going after humans. I mean I know its not fun to tag your friend you just spent so much time making that great cade with but isnt the zombie spawn random for that very reason. If it was supposed to be that way wouldnt the zombie just spawn back to main spawn like on escape maps? What if you are new and dont have human tagging/cade breaking skills? Youve now possibly Zteled from the one person who could help you get into other rooms and make more zombies (i.e. make it fun for everyone else).
Just a question.
I don't punish or ban people if they tag me when they become the first zombie in my cade.
Just a few minutes ago on Natalys, someone saw me succeed in one of my cades on the map, and followed me there. He became the first zombie and tagged me. I asked him if he became the same in my cade again to ztele out. Vlad I've had groups of 5-7 people following me before, most friends and what not, a lot of the time they would turn into a zombie. You know how annoying that gets to be killed every round at the start? It's just something we developed out of respect for each other.

That’s the funny thing about trolls: They love to do something horrible, then accuse you of doing something horrible when you call them on it.
I like it too. But I'm still curious about what admin told you it was the rules.
He is the man, the myth, the legend. I have never seen him play or in game, or even talked to him. I really know nothing about him other then that he was a great player. I can only hope to live up my predecessor's level of skill, or surpass it..
I agree completely with you Fred. I'm trying to fix the hostility between the admins though and keep the newer ones from causing so much 'drama' in game and on the forums.
But Fred, banning newcomers for 7 days for making mistakes is a little harsh. I'm dedicated to IBIS just as much as you. I'll freeze them and make them acknowledge what they've done wrong, it usually works when they have an admin looking right at them. If you just ban them without explaining what they've done wrong, they aren't going to learn that way.
Whether its keeping us on bad maps all day long, or making up non-existent rules that should remain as common courtesies, the bickering and turmoil needs to stop. Hopefully things have calmed down a bit in game though. Just have to work on the forum flame wars now. <.<
Everybody starts somewhere. Even pooter, even me. It isn't about the end result, but more so the paths we take to get to it. As long as they continue to improve, things will begin to look up as they always have. It is the way of the pendulum..
