Ramsy Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 NOTE: I wanted to post this in the Rules section, but I cannot start a thread there.As we all now, the rage-quit rule on ZAM is quite simple. If there is 11 zombies, you are allowed to leave the game (there has to be 10 zombies left when you get off). Now, this is over-fucking-abused by 99.99% of the server(s) and it ends up in 50% of the killed humans leaving with no penalty. Therefore, I propose a new and improved rage-quit ruling which will, hopefully, set things straight.I) You can only leave the game as a zombie when there is 11 zombies (there has to be 10 zombies left when you get off)!II) You can only leave the game as a zombie once you've gotten a minimum of 2 kills as a zombie!III) You can only leave the game as a zombie once you've died 25 or over 25 times!IV) You can only leave the game as a zombie once you've spent over 5 minutes in the game as an actual zombie!V) You can only leave the game as a zombie if you ask for permission from a moderator or an admin and that permission has been granted to you! NOTE: You MUST supply a valid reason (family matter(s), etc.)!You HAVE to fulfill a minimum of 2/4 of the aforementioned before leaving as a zombie (if you do V) and have granted permission, you can instantly leave). If you do not do this, you will be banned!As for banning people when it comes to rage-quit, I propose the following.Rage-quit as the first infected zombie --- 5 day ban;Rage-quit right upon death --- 4 day ban;Rage-quit when not fulfilling 2/4 needed requirements --- 3 day ban.Also, if you get banned 4 times for rage-quit, the 5th ban should be a PERMANENT BAN.Anyone else agree with me on this? 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsy Posted December 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 ZEM had it like that and thats one of the reasons it became dead.So Yeah...ZEM died because ZAM came out, was fresh, had more stuff and was updated 80% more oftenly, not because people got banned.Plus, the current status concerning rage-quitting is bad. One simple rule. I mean, 25% of the server rarely ever plays as a zombie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsy Posted December 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 On a side note, all banned players went straight from ZEM to ZAM once getting banned.And is it so wrong to start teaching people a lesson?I mean... Come on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griggs Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 And btw we already have rules about rage quitting, we don't nead any new once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wast Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Rage quiters are annoying, but we need them to have a full server. So permanant ban is not a good idea. Do the opposite of Zem because this server is dying isn't a good reason too.I think we should let people take their responsability and assume their mistakes.*I have a dream... a server without rage quit* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.StealYoGirl Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Ramsy, there can be rules, but they don't have to be this strict. The definition of ragequit is leaving the game after something happens because it makes you angry, in this case getting killed as a survivor. The rule can be as simple as "You can't leave the game after you recently became a zombie." It doesn't have to go this far, because that's what happened to ZEM. ZEM imposed crazy-strict RQ rules and it died because there were too many people banned (permanently or for very long periods of time) for just RQ. I agree with Griggs. NO.

Founder Classixz Posted December 11, 2013 Founder Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 80% of the players got over 5 Bans for RQ.I think i can disable the leave game button if its under 11 zombies..And rules need to be simpel, staff members wont know for sure how long he played, how many deaths he had etc.You cant get permbanned for breaking any rule exept hackong, and we will keep it like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamerdog6482 Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 You'll just encourage them to ragequit even more if you impose these rules, because they won't want to complete these silly requirements.Frankly, I think we need to REDUCE the rules, not strengthen them. How about must be five zombies left after you quit, plus can't quit within two minutes of dieing? That's fair to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamerdog6482 Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 I suggested months ago to give zombies 0.1x their survivor score back as zombie points. Would give players an incentive to do well as a survivor and also make it so you don't COMPLETELY start over when zombie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
