Rules at trader

Post by RaveR »

Hello,

We had problems two times in the island of trader today with same team. The admins are not agree among themselves...
The rules are not clear. Admin can you tell us what is allowed or not at trader? Steals stuff? Steals Elico?

Thanks

i believe you cannot steal any gear or parts or vehicles.

I would like clarified if you are able to camp outside the safe zone and kill people coming in or leaving, and if you are not allowed either of those maybe the safe zone should be expanded like 500 - 1000 meters from the island with a pop up message letting you know when you are in a safe area and when you are not safe anymore...

The rule is : No Griefing at Barter. Not clear, what? What problem do you have?

It doesnt matter how big the safe area is you have the same issue at all distances, its the main issue with Epoch. All it takes is one group of people in a blackhawk chasing down people leaving the trader to make a big issue.

the definition for greifer is "an online game player who intentionally spoils the game for other players"
a wiki description: A griefer is a player in a multiplayer video game who deliberately irritates and harasses other players within the game, using aspects of the game in unintended ways.

The way I see it, the rule means: no camping trader. (I think helis can not be blown up if they are in the trader. if yes, then kamikazing would be too)That is the only thing i can see as griefing. If you do not want your heli to be stolen or disable, lock it before going to the trader.
About the issue of enemies following you until you get out of the trader zone, it is a risk everyone has to take. If you have valuable loot, move it in small amounts or secure the area first.

I think we should leave it to the judgement of the admins. With that said, Admins should always be in the same page about whats going on in the server. Maybe use a group email to chat with each other and be more organize.
This is just my opinion.

That is why i think there should be a somewhat large circle around the island that lets you know when you have entered the safe zone and when you have left like some epoch servers have at their traders. This would make everything cut and dry and would make life easier for the admins, rather than every admin having a different thinking on what would be griefing and what wouldn't be.

Also Trueno get your headset replaced already would you?
