[Jailbreak] Clarification on Commands

[ApexLock]

With an influx of new players, many players are dying because of specific wording of a few commands.

For example...
...Ts take one step out of your cell, defined as a knifing distance and face the back of your cell and AFK Freeze.

...Ts take one step out of your cell, defined as a knifing distance and face away from the back of your cell and AFK Freeze.

A few specific wardens, which will remain unnamed, often switch these commands every other round if they are continuously warden and this often confuses Ts across the span of several rounds, even if there was a clear repeat.

Commands like these, which can be interchangeable, often cause the game to start off with 10 Ts dead, and usually causes many new players to leave. I believe the discontinuation of purposely switching commands like the example above would greatly benefit the server and the server population overall, to be oriented to be more noob-friendly.

Thanks for taking the time to read this!

I agree some of this commands can be confusing and should be taken away it’s not a good start for new players right out of the gate dieing to command like this and not able to play jailbreak for what it’s for. I mean there are times certain wardens and guards can be cancer like look directly up and if a t looks up but not all the way up you die. I believe some of the cancer needs to be toned down a little bit on commands where your standing still for a given command there should be a little bit of exceptions instead of being cancer and killing someone that poses no threat to a ct
Thanks joker

As an admin it is your job to maintain server stability and prevent players from grieving. If you believe a player is causing enough people to whine, complain, or leave, then take appropriate action on them.

You may think:

Well they're not breaking the rules, so why would I admin them?

If the server empties out or halves in population the span of say 20 minutes, then you need to remedy the situation by taking action on the offending party(s).

I've revoked or removed players that caused enough players to leave that it hurt the server population or should their actions have continued then the server may have suffered a reputation hit of enough people spreading the word that our server allowed X to happen and not to bother to play on it until Y player was not on.
RedDragonKnight has a post somewhere with a good follow up of this logic but I am too lazy to find it.

People that switch it on purpouse to confuse new players are dicks. What's the point of getting rid of new players. First impression is everything when a new player joins, if they join and see that there is no toxic/cancer and mostly talkative people he will probably keep on playing on this server. Seriously why just get rid of these new players. This will only make jailbreak die, if everyone is in a positive mood than more people will join and the game will be more enjoyable. Also cancer comamnds should only be a thing when theres only a certain ammount of t's alive or ct'. Like if theres 20 t's and warden died and so did a couple ct's than in my opinon a cancer command would be ok, just to get the guns out of there and play a game, if there's like 10 t's than just give a simple command like unstack and afk/freeze. Just so that you can play the next game and that there will be lr.

If someone is doing something that is clearly causing a disruption and only serves to frustrate other players. Give them a warning to chill out and be more fair. Sometimes they don't even realize how bad what they are doing is (common sense isn't so common). If they try to "rule lawyer" you and say "well it's not specifically against the rules" tell them that as an admin you feel that they are causing a disruption to the server and if they continue, actions will be taken to prioritize server stability and the enjoyment of the other players. Obviously use your own words and don't sound like a robot. After all, you're a player, they're a player, and there's a bunch of other players on the server. You know what you all have in common? You're all just trying to play the same game and have fun. So keep it fun and fair. If players are just doing things to ruin the enjoyment of other players, well that's what I'd call a punk and we don't need players like them around. Regardless of how long they've been here and whether they are a pub or an admin. Don't let people get away with ruining other players' fun.

tl;dr: something doesn't have to be explicitly stated as against the rules for admins to handle it. The global rules exist for a reason and if they are causing a disruption to the server, you are encouraged to prioritize server stability and other players' enjoyment over the one guy being a punk.

Hope this helped. CS ATs can feel free to clarify further.

You know, we could just have wardens and guard not be kill hungry and murdered someone on sight for facing the wrong side of a cell.


But no....

We used to get wardens who would say something like "Come out of your cell, face away, turn 270 degrees to the left and remain knifing distance from your cell at all times then afk freeze" It got so bad we ended up with this thread: https://www.edge-gamers.com/forums/showthread.php?195009-Jail-rule-changes-Please-read

EDIT: Because some people don't read post dates. That thread is from 2011 about the cs:s server and doesn't reflect the current rules of the cs:go jailbreak server.

My first day on a JB server:

"All T's we're playing Simon Says"
"Get to the red marker"
Sprays everyone in stack and in cells.
"Counter Terrorists Win."

If you find someone is deliberately/continually making gameplay not enjoyable for the player base, then you can get with that player and talk to them about being less disruptive in that manner. At the end of the day, admins are there to keep the server enjoyable and friendly for as much of the player base as possible. If you are unsure of how to deal with a situation, get with another eGO to help you out or find an AT.
