Its becoming pretty apparent that something is needing to be done about this, So why not put each idea through a 2 week trial phase, we have nothing to lose by doing this and at least each option can be assesed by all admins over the course of the trial whether it be extending the distance or removing the mod altogether, the last thing we need to for members to be falling out and arguing over a mod which we as a clan have the power do something about. I say we put these thing to a trial and give everyone a chance to review to changes over a period of time.
I can honestly see the contrasting points made here by all parties. Everyone has a legitimate point regarding. However I will always stand by the contention that this is DOU's server and of course we enjoy non members coming in to play with us on our server. But - if we go changing shit everytime a visitor takes issue with OUR server - where does it end? It is OUR server - OUR rules and if a visitor does not like it - then they are more than welcome to go some place else.
As for all Admins being on the same page regarding our rules - that is very important. As for All members being on the same page regarding our rules - also very important. However for us to be on the same page when it comes to mods and their interpretation - I think it would be nice - but given different personalities and different styles of play - probably a bit ambitious. The important thing here is that we all enforce, abide by and honor our server rules. If a player intentionally backs up to pull off a kill - then that should be illegal. BUT - if a person enters my spot and refuses to leave after even being asked to leave - then I will back up and exterminate the threat.
Again - and I have said this before. Some people just simply enjoy coming to our server to be an ass. Those people will always be shown the door by me and most of the time without warning. There are very few noobs in UT 99. Those that are - are very apparent.
If the clan votes to extend the MOD then that is what we should do. If the clan votes to leave it as it is then that is what we should do. But we never should get in the habit of trying to please non members - or get into debates with them. Our server is what it is and they can either get on board or find another place to play.
Concerning this topic - if you are outside of the mods range even by an inch then you are within the parameters to kill. If you BACK UP to get there after coming into an occupied spot then you are in violation of server rules. You should leave and not come back. If you come into my spot and try to shoot me and the mod does not allow a kill - leave - if you continue to shoot me within the mods range I will jump out of the mods range and kill you. Simply put - DONT BE AN ASS and there will be no problem.

In its present form it is open to far too much interpretation by both the players and the admins.
Agreed! π
Plus...how many first time players read the rules before playing on the server?
A 20-30m mod would force the noobs to comply the first time!

Agree with this.
What they said :peace_v:
The only problem with extending the range of the close kill mod is getting Tommy to do it. It will never happen.

Or give someone else permissions/credentials to do it.
However - this topic should be decided by clan vote.

That will never happen :smash:
I've set up a poll to try if we can clear things out for this situation.
I think it is very important to get this straightend out.
