Seeing too many pr0n sprays, and wondering if sprays need to go? It's hard to figure out who did it, unless you catch them in the act.

Some are pretty offensive.

Your thoughts?
 
This has been an ongoing problem in INS since none of the tracing plugins work with the mod. I'll most likely be disabling sprays on the server side in my next batch of updates.

I did not know that was an option. Pretty cool, thanks for all your hard work!
 
That would honestly be a good solution to this issue.
 
I have said it before and ill say it again, I think the best solution is to catch the person.

If you see a porn spray etc.. just spray yours and hide or stand there looking at the spray .. 9 times out 10 the bad dude will come and respray it. Thats when you screen shot him and and go .. AH HA! YOUR CAUGHT! and ban him :P

Just my 2 cents.

This is fine except that when I get the chance to play, I want to play as much as possible and admin as little as possible. I don't want to spend half a map staring at the wall hoping someone's going to come spray some porn on it so I can ban them. I'd just rather not have to deal with it in the first place =)
 
I agree with Dryft, we're here to play not admin. The whole point of the game is to play and have fun. Sitting around trying to get someone in trouble isn't enjoyable.

Also, there's the fact that sometimes when you try and spray over something the spray you're covering ends up covering your own spray. A frustrating turn of events I assure you.

We could try it first ? instead of just turning off the sprays as a whole.

+ In my opinion some sprays can be put in an 'adult' section (hot chicks, etc yummy ;) ) while others are really offensive. where to draw the line ?

To quote from Rob's thread on admining guidelines:
"Spray nudity isn’t allowed, unless classical art which is mild(IE could be in a museum a young child could visit.) Bikini ect is acceptable. "

To expand on this, if a 'bikini' type spray becomes disruptive, ie. players on your team are discussing it and huddling around to see, the odds are it's not allowed either--this requires a bit of judgment here on the admin side.
 
You know Insurgency is known for its realism angle... Well, I don't know about you, but do you know any soldiers that have the time to spray up an area with the detail found in most sprays? I think not. I think disabling sprays will bring an extra added realism and eliminate the porn spray and lack of spraytrace problems entirely. We can always turn it back on when and if we find a working spraytrace

I was thinking along similar lines myself :P It's on my todo list now.

true... but it can always turn into a guessing game. And is hate playing the guessing game.
 
until then, use the american flag in strategic positions. You will find its gets many laughs out of the pubs, and you can wait for the guy to go back and do it again.
 
Believe me guys when it comes to wanting to play INS im pushing and cutting lines to get infront! I HATE PEOPLE THAT DONT FOLLOW THE RULES in our servers because i have to take the gamer hat off and put on the admin hat on, but its our job as EGO. I guess the reason i would leave it one is because i would want to weed out the bad pubs. Its just my way of thinking, because most of the people that spray the "bad" spray's are the ones that break rulez.

Now that i think of it i guess it wouldnt matter since they would probably break the rulez anyways... ROLF...

I wasted a good 15-20minutes the other night trying to catch a guy spraying. I had just died and was following him briefly and noticed what looked to be an offensive spray as he started climbing a ladder. But I only caught a glimpse so I kept going around trying to catch him in the act.

Sprays can be fun, but ultimately serve no useful purpose, especially in a realistic game like INS. I say shut them off.

True,

But there are plenty of other, more appropriate, and easier to catch rules to break. Mic spam, obscenities etc. I would prefer to focus on people breaking gameplay rules than sprays.
 
In the latest batch of updates I've disabled sprays, should hopefully be on the servers tonight or tomorrow.
 
Sweet! now get to work on the stats! :P, is it supposed to just show kills...when you do the "rank" it has allot more specific info that can be displayed... is the plug in not correctly setup?

Know exactly what you mean. I had to take care of some tard in the servers today. Totally ruined my mood for a bit. Seriously it must have been 10 or 12 head shots later that I was able to work out my frustration.
