Incoming JB Rule Changes for May

[littleirishman]

No killing Reds for something they type in chat
The only exceptions are for jeopardy and snitching
Ex: A red who suggests an "invalid" minigame may not be killed.

No. Please.
No. ;-;

Leave. Leave. Leave. I want to live for typing "a valid minigame on this map." Get your suitcase and leave.

For the love of God, if you are going to have Jarate as bait, MAKE A REASON THAT THE SNIPER THAT THREW IT SHOULD CARE!

He should care because it's baiting which is against the rules.

 

[NerfYinYang]

Excuse me?!??! The rules state that REDs may hit the baiting BLU without consequences as long as they don't move. So no, it is not against the rules. Unless I am missing something and if I am feel free to clarify...

They can't chase the blu. If they move towards the blu, it's chasing and if they move away when told to afk, they are KoS.

What I don't get about the jarate/bait is that, since it's a AOE weapon and one that I doubt someone knows it's radius, would you slay a blu who throws a jarate at multiple people when throwing at a rebeller who is running away? Because accidents do happen, and they will happen with that in place.

I'm saying that jarate is baiting which is against the rules.

A blue can be slain for excessive baiting.

Baiting is a mechanic. Just make the rule slayable instead of baiting. Bait like that contradicts with not chasing the baiter, which is why we had disputes about minigun/huntsman bait.

This is what I am saying. Dic, I am handing you the baton. Please run with it as fast as you can.

Had this been finalized?

Sort of. I was really hoping to get more opinions from people. Do you think you could make one of those server chat messages to say something like "Don't like our Jailbreak rules? Have new ideas for rules? Visit sg-gaming.net for the Incoming May Rule Changes Thread to share your ideas". The whole point of this is to get everyone on the same page for the rules so we don't have any disasters when the rules change and everyone hates them. I'd rather wait on this and get more people to share their opinions than rush it before we know that it is good to go.

That being said, I think this set of rule changes doesn't contain anything to0 drastic so if we don't get too many more replies I think it is ready to be updated within the next few days. If you give me permission to actually edit the rules I can put it all in at the end of the week. In the meantime if you could also get the other thing ready that we've talked about that would be excellent. Or give me permission to edit that too if at all possible.

Sure I can give you permission to edit the info section. I thought you already had that.

What " other thing "?

 

[1769]

What " other thing "?

The discussion in the SA Forums. I didn't want to publicize it until you confirmed it was happening for sure.

See now you have made me curious...

The rules won'JB are becoming a bit much, and its not much fun anymore. I suggest a full rewrite again.

We should just remove the rules altogether so people wont need to find loopholes anymore.

 

[Dixie Normas]

JB is just a constant struggle of people with nothing better to do than to find Loopholes and make rounds of JB longer and more hellish for the rest of us who just want to have fun. When they find those Loopholes, we just need to address it here, discuss it, and then put a rule into action that defeats the former Loophole. #TheJBRulesCycleofLife

 

[Zero1763]

Remember when you said nothing is carved in stone?
Get rid of the things that make problems such as renaming
Clarify the rules to the MAX
And say: These are the rules, they are not to be bent for selfish purposes. Otherwise resulting in a punishment

Agreed

Asu makes a joke and everybody flips their shit. lel

Just put something along the lines of "If you find a loophole and get slayed for it don't whine" and were good.

 

[Schultz]

I'll build a Time Machine. Me and Granny are already making progress, if we get help from Key, 1769, and Dic, we can go back to a time where JB was fun. Oh, and we can try to stop 9/11 and stuff I guess, but JB is more important.
