Title: Going AFK (Away From Keyboard)
Post by: OldBloke on September 22, 2002, 09:10:34 AM
Real life can be so disruptive when you're trying to have a decent game of PCS  :x Having to go AFK for a time comes to us all.

However, it is not acceptable to just message out 'Going AFK' and hope that you can be back before anyone notices. Being AFK at your spawn can completely ruin the round for everyone else.

If an Admin is on the server you will be kicked.

If you have to go AFK for more than a few seconds then please follow this procedure. You can do this 'dead or alive'.

1. Press your team select key (usually M)
2. Select the team you are already on (you 'die' if alive)
3. IMPORTANT: DO NOT SELECT A SKIN

While AFK you will no longer spawn (you appear as 'dead' in your teamlist) but you will accumulate cash  :D

When you return simply chose a skin to continue playing.

Rule 13(a):  If you are AFK and unlucky, we will steal your gun, share your clothes among us and then shoot you in the head.  If you are AFK and lucky we will do exactly the same but give you some of Sheepy's poetry to read before we shoot you  :D
