    I've been told that when you use !friendly you are able to heal when you're a Medic. I've got proof of that aswell.
    I suggest we strip of the medigun when the Player is a medic and he/she used !friendly.

    If you look closely, you can see the effect on this sniper, while Shorty is invisible due to !friendly.
    This ruins the game for other players who wants to play fair and square.

    I suggest we strip off the Medigun and/or any item that can heal a teammate when the donators use !friendly.

    Isn't the server classified one of the "less" serious servers, like the trade one?

    And honestly, the picture doesn't actually prove it if you ask me - he could had attained the ubercharge before going into friendly.
    Though I don't doubt that it is possible.

    Is it really a place that demands for this kind of action?

    I agree with you on all Points,but i got more Screenshots of him Building Über while friendly,if thats what you are asking for ( English isnt my First Language so excuse me if i got something wrong)
    And yes,while it is one of less serious Servers,is the Server not one about Fun? People want to enjoy themselves,and i doubt it's going to be fun getting killed repeadetly when you exit the Spawnroom,please view this from my Point, im an average Gamer who doesnt seek after something amazing but someone who wants to have Fun (without getting obliterated)
    And taking away the Medigun is a Minor change

    Jozzeh, no.
    He did that on my eyes aswell and I told him to stop before too. Besides when I was joining this place, people were overdoing that a lot.

    Yes, but question yourself why are there rules out there too, like "No Telecamping". My anwser is, people really dislike playing on servers, which you could go pay2win. The server could lose popularity due to this. Also, lots of people want to play a bit more serious on the server, because of the map. Originally it was made for this:

    It just seems pointless because that's like complaining on a sniper that has a pocket medic on our trade server.

    Sure it's unfair in a regard, but not against the rules. (It's unfair because teamwork).

    As for telecamping, given that I don't play on the server I have insufficient knowledge on why that is a rule.

    An invisible medic with god mode on healing the team is not unfair to you then?

    Problem is,you can't do something about it,a Snipar with a Pocket Medic can be taken down,in our Case the Medic still can do whatever he likes without getting "punished",also on a Sidenote:people can airblast you and keep you standing still with the Huntsman taunt,while that doesn't have a lot to do with the Medigun,!friendly is a mess and stripping away the Medigun and other Weapons is nothing,it's not like your going to hurt someone when you are using friendly...

    Who is saying it is not unfair?
    When I said pointless, I said that because the map has no real objective.

    As much as it is obviously not in most people's favors, remember that the donators have paid for these privileges and others. I am not saying these people donated as in "it's the only way they can play" but because they wanted to be able to do that little extra. Not winning, but mostly silly tomfoolery.

    Doesn't matter what map it's on or if it's ''silly tomfoolery'' it's still unfair, I'll ask you this again, do you think an invisible medic running around the map with god mode while healing other people is fair?

    Guess what? The trade server fulfills the same goal as the achievement server - basically no real task but to killing each other.
    And you can even donate for super weapons on the trade server.
    Consider yourself lucky those do not transfer over to ach/idle.

    [​IMG]

    Don't forget that both friendly and the "super weapons" requires a donation from the player to ever occur.
    If you have any further questions, you should direct them at the big boss.
    (Yes, that's answering your question - you're asking the wrong man, ask the man who has control over it).

    Another similar occurrence is when a donator is using the resizeme command to become as small as possible and sneak up behind players then resizing themselves back into normal size to dish out full damage.
    And if I recall, it has been discussed about already.

    You are choosing not to answer my question, you are basically evading it, just answer the question with a simple Yes/No, I couldn't give a crap about doner weapons as of now, I want to know if you find this fair.

    Sincere apologies but I have no interest in starting some sort of flame war just because you can't come to the realization I've already answered the question before you even asked it.

    There's a simple solution to the problem if it is possible: Simply unarm the friendly or cause healing to remove his friendly status.

    I don't want to start a flame war, you are just not answering my question, all you are saying is crap about donator weapons.

    My sentiments exactly. I am not interested in hearing these kind of one-sided responses influenced by opinion that resorts to calling out words against another party.

    Regarding the topic, I would suggest the "Revert to un-friendly if healing" or at least any medi guns as the thread opener suggested rather than completely unarm the friendlies seeing as some would want to rocket jump, parachute..you get the idea. No can do if you're stripped off all your weapons.
    But as always, it is up to n0:name.

    You ain't, well that's your loss, I'm trying to get my point across, but of course you decide to ignore me, and Tryforce, it's obvious you don't like confrontations, so I'll drop it.

    @Jozzeh@Jozzeh the reason !friendly was made was to give donators Buddha/god without needing an admin present to make sure they don't kill. You have been told not to heal by Anthe while you have god and you have told me not to heal with god in the past as well, this is basically the same premise as it gives an unfair advantage to one team as the medic cannot be killed. Although this is more aimed towards your earlier post about why it matters on a server that isn't serious.

    Please stop the further shitstorm.
    I'll agree with @Jozzeh@Jozzeh since Achievement/Idle or Trade/Idle are not...well lets say "Not competitive" servers.
    I'm not playing much on those servers so I'll stay out of this.
    The decision is up to @n0name@n0name anyways.

    Jozzeh, so you're telling me admins could go giving away god to people who pay stuff to them, and who would be allowed to slaughter anyone because the servers are 'less serious'?
    We all know how bad that sounds.

    EDIT: Igonre this, my -loveley- browser didn't show me that there was an next page of this thread. Read this insead:

    I also suggest that !friendly would strip out of weapons like Jarate and Mad Milk. I have seen it on some server, that !friendly would only allow you to use your melee, which does 0 damage, and sandmans have 0 ammo for the balls, so yeah. Could be pretty good aswell.

    Just be aware that none of you should worry; I am not angry or anything - in fact, quite happy where our discussion is going.
    (Like really, it's good that we all argue so that the discussion doesn't stay linear but is viewed from multiple aspects).

    Now, since a donator is paying for privileges he must be told of where the limits go and such. Any accusations made against them abusing said privileges will require "virtual evidence" as in screenshots and videos and the like.
    Admins as we know cannot be around all the time so undeniably there are most likely going to be those times where they "do abuse" it and no evidence can be captured(assuming no players does gather it).

    So here's a question: How many times can a donator goof up before they are ripped off their VIP status?

    Because donator =/= permission to abuse.


    Problems like these arise most likely because of poor knowledge of the rules and "what's okay" and what isn't okay.
