Zombie Knife Kill Exploit

[BladeTwinSwords]

Let this be known. On maps such as predator and stargate. Glitching the respawn system to gain massive numbers of free human kills is considered an exploit of the map and is considered bannable. I will be posting a demo to provide an example of this glitch. The tic is at 48000.

You know. It just really makes me sick to my stomach to see not only players but ADMINS exploit this glitch for several hours and yet NEVER report it.

This indeed made me lose respect for said people.

Horrible.

Based on the gravity of the position I have placed myself, I wish to relinquish my rights to administrate in your community, as I have no doubt lost much of the respect and trust of my fellow admins and do not wish to tarnish this community further through my impulsive actions. I also request that I be removed from all stats on all servers since I no longer deserve what I have gain through ill means. I apologize for any shadows I have cast onto this community and am prepared to graciously accept any punishment it deems fit.

fucking disgusted with the both of you... you were and have been over the past few days abusing/exploiting the server and nakeds admin powers 2 cheat your way up the ranking system... phsyco stats clearly shows this. what really pisses me off though was seeing you guys play the game of "oh sorry blade, we can't hear you, your mic must be fucked" bullshit as he called you out.
........

you're both perma band till zero can make a ruling. lvl/rank farming is just something you don't do....

This is obvious abuse.

That being said; if my word from gg is worth anything this is NOT what I see to be the type of malicious abuse that should break anyone from our community.

Yes, I do believe that a stat reset is in order, I believe that a selective power strip should be considered before damning him as a member of the community. He made a mistake and seems to be deep in regret of said mistake, which makes me think that his mistake is something that should be punished with a keen paddle as opposed to him being banished and hated for this.

I care about my stats on gg, and if someone were to revive me just to kill me and level, I'd be a bit peeved, but it doesn't seem to be as malicious as that, he saw a creative way to abuse as fun and maybe it would be for a few people, but I think that we should look at the intentions too.

EDIT:
After reading maynard's reaction, I'm led to believe that this was not an isolated incident. That factors in and shakes my previous opinion (mentioned above) but I do think a level head is in order to handle a situation like this.

[maynard]

I just can't believe we had an admin doing this....

[Penis シ]

And I understand that, Maynard. But at the same time, this is human nature, there are a LOT of people that do not know how to handle power. But from a member's perspective, I also see someone that was just like us that couldn't handle the step up in the manner this community expects. His actions are his fault, his nature is not. I think we've learned a HUGE lesson about him, I think that we also have an opportunity to save the child in a sense.


Just to be clear, I don't think he should ever hold admin in this community again. I don't think he should keep his stats. I don't think he should be able to continue playing tomorrow as if nothing happened, but I also don't think that he deserves, in this incident, to be shoved out of the community altogether.

According to the psycho stats both Ness and Saturday have achieved a massive jump in skill points for the past 2 days.

Here are a few pieces of the manipulation....

These stats are just flat out ridiculous. Both knowing completely what they did and continuing to do so just isn't right. This was less to do with glitch and more to do with straight up admins abuse and stat manipulation. There is no excuse for this at all.

[maynard]

theres has been a lot who don't know how 2 handle power that is no excuse. he failed as an admin, tried 2 hide it and above all was supporting it 2 those who weren't even admin..... he's a snake, clearly can't be trusted and should be removed from the community. even he said that he's leaving and is aware how fucked up what he did was, so why you're tyring 2 defend it is beyond me.

you can't even try and claim the average person anything... cause we have a shit ton of admins and he's the only 1 pulling this shit. I don't deny we have other admins who are a pain in the ass and do abuse... but 2 abuse and exploit certain maps and glitches 2 move up the ranking system are 2 diff things, and it's a complete joke.
there's many who spend a shit load of their time working for proper rankings.... and these clowns wana just cheat there way up the system? Fuck that...

Zero JUST made a post in WCS about how lvl farming will not be tolerated.... it's not diff on any other server... cheating your way up the ranking is beyond not tolerated... and literally 1 of the worst things you can do in this community
