Is there, or can a rule be brought into effect about the shooting of lifeboats on "mg_piratewars"?

If a vote is done that wins can you punish for firing cannons after one of the ships has sunk?

I would like to know.

Yeah I see what u mean. Its a very unclear thing for many members & sometimes they try to create a treaty. But that usually fails lol. I think its fine to shoot their lifeboats at times :w00t:

What I mean is being slayed or kicked for shooting lifeboats, or even just shooting after a ship has sunk (even if it doesnt hit).

It was basically decided that it's part of the map since the boats are destroyable. Admins really shouldn't kick/ban/slay users for performing a function that is built into the map.

You can ask users to not shoot them and just knife it out, but you can't force them to.

Why don't you just make a version where cannons don't destroy the lifeboats.......:confused1:

That is pretty pointless considering the fact that you failed and your big boat is sinking then you retreat back into the little boats and are at the other teams mercy.

It's a part of the game, get used to it and stop failing so hard you have to go to the boats.

This is where votebanning is a beautiful thing. I think it's out of line to kick someone or slay them for shooting at boats, but I think it's perfectly fine to voteban them if the majority of players don't want you shooting out boats.

Lol its not like I fail at and I'm not used to it, because I don't play on mini games.

I was just suggesting the idea to Mammal because I thought everyone agreed on the rule that once a boat is down you knife it out with them because shooting them to death is..............boring???

It would just be a better solution to having to kick/ban people for ruining others fun.

Well whenever im on me and the captain of the other ship make an agreement on whether to shoot the lifeboats or not. If they break it we crush them and give them no mercy.

Well I always shoot lifeboats, its not really hard to avoid the cannon balls, you can normally make it to the other ship, and if not dont lose so badly...

I got kicked for it myself and another got slayed simply for shooting a cannon ball that landed near to the ships.
It wasn't tk either... :thumbdown:

We can end this topic with this.

ADMIN CAN NOT MAKE UP THEIR OWN RULES!! IF THE RULE IS NOT LISTED IN THE MOTD THEN IT'S NOT A RULE.

This mean admins can not take a vote on a rule they just came up with. Even if the vote passes they can not punish for it.

What about a teammate killing another teammate by shooting their boat? May I ban for teamkilling?

That would be a good idea :D
Though I personally find it funny when you shoot people in the ships and they All start screaming while the sink to the bottom of the sea xD
But a rule to protect players from being TK would be nice!
