Should Respawn Coin Dropping Be a Bannable Offense?

I might keep a neutral perspective

I do think its an asshole move to troll players and grief the coin to prevent people from respawning(Unless if its a good reason like if you want to 1v1 the hale on a minigame or play solo). However, I don't know why would they ban it if they allow the PlayStation cards to get shredded because of "map intentional" which is the same thing and 6 month BAN for dropping a coin is VERY BRUTAL!(Unless if the person done it multiple times and does not learn their lesson then that's excused)



However, i do not blame the players or skial for this issue! This is nothing but Death Experiments(a bigoted liar shit ass playtesting server) fault. They were the ones getting annoyed when people resorted to auto respawning or button toggles, so they thought a intel respawn would be a VERY SMART DESICSION to make respawning people more "interesting". Well, look what we got now thanks to them. A Huge Issue in the DR Community!



If mappers don't like auto respawing, then DO WHAT BITS HAD DONE!
To be honest that 6 month ban is because I have a long history of griefing and then each ban just gets longer, but didn't know doing something that affects only dead players still counted as griefing. By this logic I should be banned too if I don't press the "respawn dead" button at the end of some maps.
Maybe what got me banned is dropping the coin in a way that was inaccessible to the rest of the team, both on the drop zone and the coin respawn zone because of motivator.
So what if I just drop the coin before reaching the end of the map? or I drop it on an inaccessible zone but with still a chance of recovering it on the respawn zone? what if I give the coin to a player I know he's going to die on a zone where the coin will become inaccessible, for example a difficult parkour course with a pit below?
You can really get creative with this, so lets see what the staff have to say.

Edit: Grammar.

I don't think dropping coin for falling or lag should bannable offense, However, i've also seen assholes intentionally wasting the opportunity just because they're selfish prick.

Deathrun minigames should be enjoyed by everyone who participate on the stepping stone of finishing the map, the one sucked or fucked by lag, and single sociopath that hinders the opportunity to stroke their ego does more harm to the server and those guys deserves it.

Gonna push back on that. Take for example this report, which is the one you were involved in. I ask you: what caused you to press the drop intel key? What were you gaining by doing that? It's not the same. It defers in your intentions. If you were not interested in respawning, then why even bother picking it up? Why screw over other players who do want to fulfill this optional objective?

You can and you should. The crux of the problem is that you can't trust players to behave or play the damn map. Hopefully this "problem" incentivizes mappers to create alternative methods of respawning if the intention is to make it more interesting.
 
Is this really a big deal?. It is a coin on a video game.

The guy that got banned for it tried to play it off as an "oopsie" while having an extensive history of griefing. So of course, special privileges must be given to the special needs players of DR, VSH, and other games modes.

Theres an easy solution to this, as skial already runs a plugin to modify entities in real time someone like artic dino, berke, cream tea or someone else could easily make a config file to auto respawn dead players without the need for the coin on maps that require it like supermarket and junglemines, that way players still can do whatever they like with the coin (drop it in a hole, grief it, die with it intentionally behind motivator etc.) without negatively impacting the rest of the server just because one person wanted to be funny.

Should we do a poll on this?
 
Dang the vote is wild

3-32

How the 3 people voting yes going to defend their argument?
If it's not in someone's interest to respawn people or get the coin to the end, then why even pick the thing up? Same thing in CTF. You are likely gonna get votekicked for intel drop spam/stalling.

You're not funny for doing that, you're just being huge piece of shit
Wdym, i never intended it to be rude?


I just noticed like 32 people voting no and 3 people voting yes! Thought i would make a pun about how will the 3 people convince them to see how to make more people agree with their opinion!


Im sorry if this was taken as “rude”, but it was not my intention!

It's not being rude or something else, it's a positive decision that affect all of the Players in the server by your hand, If you fail by accident or failing then we won't mind, but doing it just because you're spiteful is selfish as fuck
 
>someone drops the respawn coin just because they didn't want to respawn everyone
>waa waa!

>someone decides to not press the respawn button
>waa waa!

notice any difference?

We lambast anyone who don't fucking hit the button because they're always in our faces most, you can't tell if someone dropped a coin as yourself too focused on playing the map
