.. while I'm editing the rules for serious/classic RP, post them in this thread now please. Disregard the submission thing, lol. :>
Whats wrong with EntID doors? (For Classic) They make getting into places much easier, but more realistic than just hitting the key.
For classic: These apply to Props + Tooglun + Physgun 1.) No using props to elevate yourself. "Needs to be evaluated more upon, combine walls have pathways on them, but by this rules wording they wouldnt be allowed to be used, in the old classic we were allowed to use props to elevate ourselfs, but it was always monitered, commen sense comes into play here on just how tall somthing should be allowed. 3.) No using props to sell inventory items. "Sounds like you cant use the prop version of items for display stands, might wana reword it" 4.) No colouring with the toolgun. "This was allowed back in old classic as well, material tool was taken out due to lag issues with people, but this tool was one of the tools we still had available near the start of the Serious Server" 6.) No using props to help you get away. "Needs to be elaborated on, technicly by this rules wording, small obsticals such as junk items, rubble would be disallowed items for areas due to them hindering ones movement." 12.) No blocking public places. "There are times when the CP do indeed need to do this for RP events, needs to be clarified a bit" 14.) No useless props. (Props that do not pertain to HL2RP, or prop spam.) "It is classic afterall,that last bit isnt really needed for it, fits more for serious than classic" 18.) You may not use multiple keypads per door. "Change it to You may not use more than 1 keypad set per door. Or somthing around that, the other way makes it sound like its one keypad on anyside, and thats all you get." These apply to chat channels. (OOC/IC) 8.) /advert is only for selling items. "Advertiseing is for alot of things, political campaigns, P.S.A annoucements by the CP, and alot more, original classic didnt get that rule until about a month or two before the change to serious" Miscellaneous Rules 11.) Admins are not exempt from any rules whatsoever. "There are times when voiding a rule for a time benifits RP, a short list should be made of admins who would be allowed to do such, but people should still report admins who are on "or are not on" the list who are voiding rules for no good RP reason or abusing it for their own gain"
Why not just say "Admins may break these rules to improve RP. If you see an admin breaking a rule, before you post a ban request and whine whine whine, consider if what the admin is doing is improving the experience of the majority of players on at that time."
Kinda the point of that little blurb, maybe 4-5 months before we even thought of a serious RP server on paper "Code i guess?" Full admins were allowed to void rules for a time for RP, cars would be allowed if the person could actualy design a RP car for the period, elevators and so on, and im not saying this time around EVERY full admin can do this, im talking a very short list.
I hope, cus it's really hard to defend your base when cops and CP loyalities are coming to try to kill you, adn you kill them, and then you see your kill count is 23, but cops are still coming etc.. :S
A DM limit is still in effect, we're just not sure what the numbers are yet, still you shouldn't have had 30 kills. You can RP without killing, if you see you have too many kills then surrender or stop, etc.
