Declined Ghosting blue delayers (1 Viewer)

[MaeTF]

Not running it through a poll this time because yea, but basically what I'm proposing is that while people will just say "use call admin" or just report it, the stance there is already as weak as a tower of cards.
Not only are you just prolonging everyone's suffering by watching the last guard not killing everyone, or just in general someone delaying the round by hiding (this won't apply to stuff like hide n seek or whatever, you get my jist )
You're still sitting there watching it happen, and the function depends on how active staff are at the time, so you're out of luck when they're delaying for minutes on end
If anything, blues hiding especially during lgka, everyone should be allowed to ghost their spot.
Reds don't necessarily need to be ghosted cause its their whole point to rebel/ play the game. But thats not how a Blue should play cause they should be actively hunting, and not prolonging the round longer for any others online

but in all seriousness, maybe you should have some more connection time before suggesting so many things? be better to get used to how the server works before trying to change it to things you are used to.

Haven’t we already had one or more threads about ghosting delayers?

Also, everyone else is right. Maybe play more, read the rules, and try to understand the mechanics and quirks of Panda Jailbreak before jumping into making a suggestion to change it.

Although everyone who says this person makes too many suggestions is correct, I wanted to say I have no problem with this. Rebellers need to hide and blus really shouldn’t be hiding from reds so I feel like ghosting blus location if they are delaying isn’t a huge deal. Also blus round delaying although uncommon is definitely annoying.

If this rule gets implemented people are going to ghost non delaying blues much more, I think that it's gonna be much more harder to keep this rule in check then what we have right now. Sure, delaying blues are annoying but people "abusing" this rule to ghost non delaying blues would be even more annoying.

Uhm, no thanks.

Love how mfr's are like "I haven't seen you play" despite me being on panda almost everyday the past few weeks, maybe yall got diff time zones or smthn but I defo think the excuse of "just read rules" is the worst argument when again, I know the rules clearly and am making the suggestion to change a rule regarding blue's delaying on lgka. It happens often and I think it would be good to do so since call admin varies in utility at the time of day the delaying is happening. And again, you getting ghosted under any circumstance happens already as is even if its not lgka.

That thread was about reds delaying, and I am talking about blues here specifically under the circumstance of lgka.

If what you mean by “blu’s delaying on lgka” is them not actively hunting reds every second, they could also be taking it slow like black said. When I am on, people always tend to ghost whenever they’re alive or not, so there is really no reason to implement this rule. It’s simply not controllable to make sure that every red and blu knows the entire rules to JB

In my time of play JB I rarely see any blu’s actually delay the round during lgka as most of the time they’re either dead or trying to find a red to kill. And yes, sometimes blu’s do just hide in one spot during lgka but it is just unavoidable completely.

I agree what Mark also said as it will make the non delaying blu’s life hell as reds will be constantly following them and not being able to get more health and ammo.

I’ve also never see you on the server and i’m on basically everyday, soooooooooo

You are clearly over-exaggerating there. If this does happen this much and bothered you this much, why wouldn't you start reporting it? Ghosting is one of the easiest things to report as it only needs a screenshot. And from my experience, ghosting doesn't occur that much. Most people who ghost are just not aware of the rules, so warning players that it's not allowed/reporting them if they continue is in my opinion, a way way way better fix to this issue than this change of rules.

Also I don't understand why there is no poll for this?

Being on the server for 30 minutes and then leaving aint enough buddy

Hi there, seems good on paper. Why don't we just set a guideline for inactive guards?
Inactive: Sitting in one place hiding from reds and not hunting rebels, Avoiding killing rebels, getting stuck in a minigame and not progressing to leave the game to find rebellers/stick with the warden
Not Inactive: Healing, getting more ammo, Spy Sneakiness (Like a spy trying to lgka), building buildings to set get ammo/health, killing rebels with weapons, killing rebels with minigames
Solution to Ghosting of active blues: This ghosting of active blues can easily be solved by saying, if a guard is inactive for say 1 minute they can be ghosted after a warning to be active. This minute gives time for a guard to defend themselves and point out players who may misunderstand their point to doing something, for example people may say "actively LGKA" in which a blue may use the minute to say on mic "I need ammo, hence why I am building a dispenser, to last guard I need ammo"


He makes a lot of suggestions, but this one isn't too outlandish; it just needs a bit of tweaking to not cause problems.

As much as I love the concept, it's just gonna lead to people considering the blues being inactive whenever they deem it, and theres nothing stopping them from ghosting if all they could just say is, oH weLl hE wAs iNactiVe whEn i sEnt thAt

Thats why I say that having a minute after you warn them not to be inactive to be active or explain why they arent inactive. If someone ghosts them by just deeming them inactive, not warning them, and not giving them time to be active or defend themselves thats on them

I agree with the idea, but there's going to be issues stacked upon one another, and most new players are just quick to ghost others. I doubt having a "warning system" would be helpful if all it takes is one impatient red.
