Hello everyone. As it is now, it seems like half of the players (young players, mostly) find it difficult to get the rules explained, so I decided to make this, to make it easier for all players, if they find something difficult to understand.
Camping (Also a small suggestion in this)
Firstly, camping as hale, is not allowed at all. You are of course allowed to wait, about 5-10 seconds, before it becomes ''camping''. It is delaying map-time and you, as the hale, are the only one everyone is waiting for.
And here is where my suggestion comes in. I think camping as regular players should be forbidden, if you're the last one alive. ((Except if you're like an engi because then you can have built a proper base)) but more like spies who are extremely useless, by just going around, using dead-ringer, picking up health packs, repeating and it's wasting a whole lot of time.
Time wasting / map-delaying
Time wasting and- or map-delaying is when you waste time on purpose. E.g: You're the last scout alive, and you just run around doing nothing but jumping around. It can take a while, because Scouts have the ability to double jump ((3 and 4 jumps)) on top of stuff, if they have the right equipment, and therefor can keep running forever. It's not directly against the rules, but if it takes more than 3-4 minutes, I'd take actions.
It is the same, for being the hale. If you're being friendly, and just looking at the last player, without doing anything. That's even worse, and that is directly disobeying the rules.
Being friendly
Being friendly as hale, is directly disobeying the rules. It's like what I wrote above, wasting time and delaying map, just to get over it. Being friendly as a hale can and will piss off a lot of people, even worse for those who lack of patience.
Point-farming / point-hunting
Point-farming is when, (refering to rule nr. 2 and 3) you allow the last player alive (on regular player team) to apply a lot of damage to you, just so that he can get a lot of points. It's also a direct offense towards the server rules.
Pretending to be AFK to avoid dealing with being hale
This is like rule number 4, this can be a huge point-farming for everyone, and it's annoying because when you're not AFK, you can just play.. If you don't want to become hale do !resetq.
When is it spamming?
In my opinion, you start spamming after repeating the same message over 3 times. Just like when there's a map change, people tend to start spamming the living hell out of the chat, by saying e.g: 444444 IF U TAKE 4 U COOL BRAH like copy-pasting it multiple times. This is again, not allowed.
I hope this cleared up some of it, and if you have some questions, feel free to ask.
