right i was playing on the server, as i do, when someone has a :ranting2: at me for going past the bounderies onto a balcony on the map de_inferno. Now ok i know you're not supposed to go past bounderies, but it seems odd to me that you shouldnt be allowed on that balcony, i mean it is just litteraly on the sign, u go past the sign by just 1 meter. is this kind of "trespassing" really not allowed? it doesn't seem to be very tactical not to be able to use that balcony...

just want your thoughts on this.

Ive always regarded the signs of  a "point of no return" factum... Crossing is last chance, outside boundaries are mines, what happens if you walk in a mine field???? You die...

On Meathook, I wouldn't see it as too much of an issue but we have to be strict on Boomer as it's difficult enough to admin without having fuzzy bounderies. The balcony was always allowed on Inferno until the signs went up, but you can't show the sign floating in mid air outside the balcony so the wall had to be used as the limit.

though I do see your point in that being allowed up to the balcony (if it's the balcony I'm thinking of) but not the extra inch onto it seems a bit strange - could just be the only place the sign would fit nicely (you wouldn't see it on the railings ;)). You're def. not supposed to go jumping out the window, and it's unlikely you'd want to be out on the balcony as you're a massive target there most of the time. The more complex the map the harder it is to tag nicely with signs - use your head, remember what your objective is on the map, and you should be fine.

edit: ha!, beaten mid-post. As Whitey said it's a matter of control. If you're unsure ask in-game as the admins' fuses might be short after an hour on  Boomer with an unruly mob :rolleyes:

I think it was me that told you not to step over the boundaries there...
 
As whitey said, On MH its not generally a prop, (not that i ever admin there :) ) But on Boomer, i have to say i run a somewhat 0 tolerance policy, step the line and boom. Its not to be a hardass or anything, but boomer can be hard to admin, and then there is no room for fuzzy boundaries.
Myself tend to be strict, maybe some think to strict. But some lets say we make that a grey zone where you can move over the sign to get out on the balch... then some will see it, and all the other signs turn into grey zones in their heads, so they end up thinking we can run a few feet over this mark..
But maybe im to strict about it
 
Thats my two cents..

ok fair enough, yes it was you :p

i did understand that you couldnt just put a floating sign which is why it was on the wall as apposed to in mid air, which is why i thought the balcony would have been fine to walk onto. Naturally you wouldnt walk on the baloncy when everyone was around, but to check the sides of the building for camping terrorists,  or those who are walking around to building to stab you in the back.


its the same for the italy balcony, the one at the second house, although that one is more understandable as it gives the terrorist team a major advantage, it seems odd to me that this isn't part of the tactical way of playing css.

i will obey the oobrules, if you see me disobeying them just slap me, remind me, i may not have loaded the signs properly & forgotten (happens often, especially when you play on normal css servers).

oh btw on a seperate point, at the end of the round, i shot lee in both kneecaps for a little laugh, he understood it but then i got yelled at by soonjong :( is it a terrible crime to delibertly TA at the end of a round?

No delibarate TeamAttacking. Guests might think people do it on a regular base and join in.
She's right about warning you for that.

tbh sneaking out the balch to spot T's woulnt be use by anti terror team RL, as the balch would be a easy way to get clipped by a sniper, instead the windows would be used to spot t's with (and those are located within bounds)
 
TA is under no circumstances allowed, how would SJ know what was going on, she prolly just saw the TA chat message..
 
We encurage respect among the people that play and shooting a teammatein the kneecaps isnt really the way of showing respect, not just respect between the two of you, but how do you guess it looks for newcomers, newcomers which we are trying to show our values?

Yeah G you shouldn't team attack whatsoever deliberately, the thing is SJ warned you before i got the chance, she's pretty speedy with being so experienced, unfortunately i'm still learning at the moment. Also it meant you lowered my kevlar so i had to buy a new one next round. :ranting2: Don't think this is a personal thing however, we have to enforce the rules against everyone including dMw members.
