    Ranks

    This proposal is for ranks to be added on the servers that don't have it, this would include:
    • Escape 1
    • VIP Escape
    • Surf
    • Breakfloor
    • PB Uprising
    • PB Muting
    Servers that don't need it:
    • Minigames
    • Deathrun
    • Climb
    Servers that are already running it:
    • Dust2 FBG
    • Napalm
    The arguement to take them off was that it used up resources and built up an unneeded database of ranks that would cause lag. I don't think it's fair to have ranks on 2 servers, but not on others that need it.

    Personally, I'm not a rank whore, I'd rather do my admin duties and die rather than preserving a precious rank but other players do! Some wont bother coming back if there's no kind of ranking system, no real point of coming back to play here. Surf is dying because of it; Escape is also on a slow decline on players.

    So, yes or no.

    Regarding PB ranks, I think they're useful to show how good a T is at decepting the CT's and how good a CT is at keeping order there.

    You decide!

    I am making a request that you remove both Escapes from this proposal (I dont know enough about other server to care.) This is because on Escape when there are ranks people just intentionally become Zombies so they can kill people and boost their rank... I know this because when I first started playing on our servers, Escape had ranks and that is exactly what I did to boost my rank.

    Maybe I should make zombie ranks. How does that sound? Lol.


    You set the standard, you keep the standard.

    Just saying what I think may happen with PB; people may freekill more and be more harsh just to better their rank.

    I think that only surf and fbg should have ranks.

    The other servers with ranks will bend the objective of the mod.

    In zombie you should escape, rather than hunt.

    In PB you only kill when you have to, unless you're a T. But I still think that its better not to have it, unless it could be done so that kills only count when you're a T. This might stop Ts from not doing anything, but it might also reduce the amount of people who want to be CT.

    Just as Lux said.

    Deathrun: T's will always have the higher rank. It's because they can kill the CTs when they get there, and CTs will always drop points for each time they are killed by a trap.

    PB: Self-explanatory

    Zombie: Self Explanatory

    Minigames: Maps like Backalley and KTT, the person with the gun will have the higher rank
    Look at it this way, on MG if there's ranks then people will be forced to the team that has to run on the maps.

    Climb: ...Can you even kill in here/die?

    With regards to deathrun, I found a script that will rotate ct's and t's so that would help. Probably could modify it for PB. I think also Paul wanted to try it with MG with those maps that pally said. And finally Climb, I also found a script that takes the time to get to the end and can rank them that way based of maps.

    But for most of these things I think we can modify the Achivement script I got for GG to work in place of ranking systems, I just need help figuring out the strings and stuff.

    With the vote running 3-2 I'm not to sure this is satisfactory. Ultimatly I think we need to see if mani stats is even a viable way to run stats for our servers. I don't see us going back to HLStats nor do I see another way to run and keep them. I think a re-think of this proposal is needed and probably be done on a server by server basis.

    i got the same opinion as paladin.
    i dont think any more of our current servers should get ranks enabled.

    And not a single fuck was given this day
