    I still highly doubt you were slayed at that distance, i really dont believe you to be honest, no hard feelings.

    Chale told me he exploded you for being next to the spawn, i slayed you for being next to the spawn, 2 right?

    I was walking towards and from the spawn for a while and shooting those who stepped out of the invisible wall and beyond. Wen I was between the doors to the thropy room (the one with the unusual effects in it) I got slain/exploded.

    The 2nd time I got slain was when I was killing Chale who was sitting in his own spawn behind the invisible wall killing us. So I went towards him to kill him. Was I supposed to let him sit there and kill us? Going soldier was the only way to get him because if I were to go sniper I would die instantly the moment I popped my head out of spawn.

    Okay, I hope I understood everything right.

    For me it looks like a giant misunderstanding regarding how spawncamping is seen.

    I personally see spawncamping as standing in front of the opposite spawn and denying their chance to get out of it by shooting bullets/rockets/fire into the spawn.
    I would also qualify it as spawncamping if they are giving them no chance to get out of the spawn, no matter if you are on the opposite of the map.
    Why this as well? I think people need to be able to use the whole map, so give them a chance to get out of the spawn.
    If you just run by the opposite spawn and shoot 2 times, run away after those 2 shots. Sure, you can do this.

    What I saw mentioned in a post above, there were multiple snipers standing behind the boxing ring shooting to the opposite spawn.
    This way the other team wasn't able to get a single step out of their own spawn.
    This shouldn't have happened. In fact it does sound as spawncamping to me then.
    I saw that there were 2 admins present at the time of happening. One of them should have done something against this, either by telling them to stop or by slaying those people.
    Sure, a single shot at the enemy spawn is no problem at all. But continuing doing it for multiple minutes is.

    However what I did notice is the a bit of a unprofessional attitude on both present admins.
    Telling someone to "shut the fuck up" when he asks you a question isn't good.
    When he asks why and a different user tells him "because we told you to" followed by "you sad cunt". This isn't right at all. Something should have happened against this user. It is not correct to not even tell this user that this isn't correct. Action should have taken against him. This is just straight out bullying people and just isn't nice.
    When Vince left the server I noticed some other strange lines from Chale. This isn't right either. It is good that you didn't start yelling at him, but it isn't nice of you telling he has down syndrome.

    I don't think this is worth an official warning, but a formal warning and see this as a learning moment for both/all admins to rethink their definition of spawncamping so we can prevent such stuff in the future.
    In advance if someone is asking something to you, give him an answer instead of plain ignoring them or tell them to shut up.
