| Sid P: 01/08/2021 20:11 | Good day to you all *doffs cap* What are the rules regarding throwing EMP's on the ceiling of the ground floor, close to the spawn? I've done this (and have seen many other people to it), and never heard anyone complain until today. I can hear players footsteps above, and I assume they're already outside the spawn, so I toss an EMP to wipe them out. Sometimes there's an SG/tele/dispenser on the floor above, or a demo camping the doorway to the spawn.. (I won't mention any names, rhymes with KPops..) Is this allowed, or not? |
| Mr. WalnutsDaycare Manager Pipey FlagCatcher P: 01/08/2021 21:44 | The rule is no cheap kills...what do YOU think? |
| Sid P: 01/08/2021 21:50 | How do you define 'cheap kill', I've seen you pipe outside the sniper deck respawn door. Anyone exiting can't see the pipes beforehand, I'd call that a cheap kill. |
| angry_saladSuper Regular Medic Capping Service P: 01/08/2021 22:18 | Whoa dude, you're getting way ahead of yourself. First, link your stats to your profile so we can see how much you suck. Second, that's the only way Walnuts can manage a kill so we let him do it. Third, whiny threads should be in the Whiner's Corner. Fourth, Drippy should correct the title of the aforementioned discussion area to include the apostrophe as it indicates the possessive. As in, "The corner belonging to the whiners". Like Sid. |
| Sid P: 01/08/2021 22:30 E: 01/08/2021 22:31 | At what point am I whining? I'm asking for clarification on the rules. If it's not allowed I won't do it, but I've seen plenty of regulars do it, so thought it was ok.. What's with all the hate, I have nothing but love for everyone. Except KPops. |

Anyone exiting can't see the pipes beforehand, I'd call that a cheap kill. Good point. The formal answer, as I understand it, is there are two exits from sniper spawn and you are absolutely forbidden to camp the drop. The more logical is that a lot of weak-ass mofos play from there consistently. Part of controlling the enemy sniper deck to make it possible for the prima donas to make it across the bridge and continue thinking they did it on their own. Ironically, its usually the ones that complain about this. |

| Ignorant_FloristDaycare Manager Pipebomb Monkey P: 01/09/2021 03:33 | Let's just say that tossing Emps at the main respawn(from either floor) without a target is risky at best. As Walnuts said, the SS Dropdown is treated the same as the Main Respawn exit.... it's off limits to spam without a valid target. The Sniper Deck door is 100% legal to camp/spam/etc, BECAUSE the Dropdown is protected like the Main Respawn exit. Also, don't make the mistake of assuming that just because you see someone doing something questionable(if not outright illegal) and getting away with it, doesn't mean you'll be as lucky. It's possible that the person you just saw "get away with it" tipped off an Admin that someone is trying to pull something, and we're looking to see who did it. Next one to do it gets caught, and banned. |

| [SHS]HitzSuper Regular Sniping Bridge Bomber P: 01/09/2021 06:21 | I think it’s fine. I’ve been on the receiving end of exiting the spawn and being emp’d by Sid (and others) and have no issue with it. There is a problem with emps detonating while the door to the main spawn is open though, and people just spawning getting killed as they exit the respawn door into the main resupply... but that’s just collateral damage. As for Walnuts... he got his ass handed to him yesterday. He was playing like it was his first day on TFC. I was wacking him around like I was swatting midges in the summer heat. |
| Nug P: 01/09/2021 07:42 | Hitz, have a look. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/psychosis/ Considering your recent posts on this forum and considering the two main symptoms - alarm bells are ringing. You got plenty of tin foil in stock? |
| MurfSuper Regular Spaz Sniper P: 01/09/2021 09:00 E: 01/09/2021 09:01 | Nug is right, enough already. We need restrictions on who can post and play here. |

No hate, my response was very much tongue in cheek. |
| fredSuper Regular Rocket Suicider P: 01/09/2021 10:40 | so if someone is playing from spawn or hanging around it i thought it was open season on spawn with spam. am i wrong? can you drop multiple pills under it? and can't you toss some emp's under it? |
| fredSuper Regular Rocket Suicider P: 01/09/2021 10:41 | and fuck JPOPS! |

I resent it being included after your Rhode Scholar claim, however. |
| gg#4Super Regular Killer Scout P: 01/11/2021 10:55 E: 01/11/2021 11:00 | No you cant just toss emps on 1st floor below respawn. With emps its the same as tossing it at the spawn door. Probably worse because you cant see if anyone is playing from the spawn. At least if you are up there you can see whats going on. You can say you hear people up there, but how do you know if its a fresh spawn vs someone running in and out? You cant. So don't spam it. Toss your emps at pipe traps, build offensive teleporters. Much more useful and CTF objective tasks than wasting EMPs at spawn door. Its quite clear your objective. You aint fooling anyone. But aren't u the same engie who builds SGs right in front of bottom RS and leave the door open which makes you immune to grenades and also makes the turret another SG all the while you just hug med packs and ammo packs and go whacky whacky. Playing cheap is probably coded in your DNA somewhere. I bet you take handfuls of candy from unattended trick or treating bowls. Park in handicap spots without having any PHYSICAL disability. Pretend to hold doors open for the elderly only to let go at the last moment. Leaf blow your leaves into the neighbors yard. Piss on toilet seats kind of guy. |
