Kritic to the new weapon vote

[Commander]

Hey !

I was playing on your server and discovered a new vote plugin you installed.
Voting for knife only is really funny I gotta say

BUT

As you all know camping is a real problem on your server. So, as we were pushed back in our spawn a little and couldn't get out, the admin just put snipers off. WTF ?!
His reason: They won't camp without their snipers.
Reality: Every sniper was now with his g36 sitting in the corner,behind boxes and camping.
All in all, it was in vain turning the snipers off. Actually we needed snipers to stop the enemy from rushing.
Solution: Just warn camping guys and if they don't stop kick them.

I have no problem in turning out smoke and hk beacause its no massacre and playable then.
If you want to play some weapons only, go on the mod servers please !

I want the good old Wurst Serwer back.

Thanks for your attention !

I too am against turning off snipers in the middle of the game, but at the start of some maps it is ok for me.

Example: I have the strong opinion that uptown without snipers has ALOT more fluent gameplay on TDM with the snipers turned off. But turning it off in the middle of the game can create unfair advantages for the team that used snipers before predominately.

And since we have that vote, I am strongly for voting snipers off instead of setting them off. Because if the majority of the players wish to play without snipers it is ok I think.

(I assume in your stated scenario the admin just set snipers off.)

Thanks for your input, guys, it's really appreciated!

As disabling snipers seems as polarizing as playing
in knife only mode, I temporarily disabled disabling
snipers. :-)

I might implement a !snipersnext and !votesnipersnext
command, if our internal discussion comes to an
appropriate conclusion. Let's see ...

Good idea Pirat.

Voting for nextmap snipers off/on, nades off/on etc.... is a good compromiss, i think.
People who dont want to play knifes only, or without snipers can quit. You server admins will see if it effects positively on the server(gameplay) or not in long term observation of the player developpment.
But try to keep the vote commands in the same style, so its easy to understand

TY
