Why there are so many idiots out there?  :o

Ok ... there ARE deconners ... we must live with them. But then there are people, who dont stop to attack a deconned team. WHY?  :evil:
Some fair players even start to TK those lamers, but mostly it is too late.

FUCK! Let them rebuild! Lets play fair! (Some good servers have the possibility to restore buildings ...)

I think there is nothing more lame, than "winning" against a deconned team (except using aimbots  :P ).

It is rather lame, you either get the heros trying to hold them off the humans, or the f***tards thinking, "OMG!!! KILLLZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM SOOOO L3333333333333TTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!".


They are not new, they are noobs.

It also depends wether you think kicking while theyre down is a strategy or not, a part of the game you have to cope with that gives the other team a good advantage.

Sometimes I think either ways.

There is also the view that the game has been ruined already.

To allow them to rebuild can easily mean them rebuilding structures that were already down/repairing already damaged structures/positioning structures in better places than last time. With a poor base and an enemy team who would wait for rebuild, a deconner could give the deconned party an advantage they never would have had.

I think generally if you've been deconned and it's a proper job then it's going to be more disruptive waiting for gameplay to be restored than just ending it and getting on with the next game.
Of course, one !revert later and you can all continue as normal ;)

EXACTLY... i've seen teams close to losing and somebody decons the reactor. They say "oh we were deconned" everyone stops attacking for a bit.... 30 min later "oh we are ok again, thanks for waiting" and their base has been moved to a better spot and there is a massive turret farm... its happened more often than not in varying degrees. Once you have been deconned either accept defeat or restart the map, or make sure someone is keeping tabs on when they are back to what they had before, not when they feel like they are ready.

You know, whenever I've been in a game where a team got deconned, it's been the exact opposite of what you say. The attacking team holds off until the deconned team can get back to their former setup, and the game starts again. Maybe you should try a different server? :)

I have witnessed this many of times.

As to allowing them to rebuild i always try to hold my team back wile tey rebuild wat was deconned and nothing more.
Most people that are vets or reg's will only replace what was deconned.
Many times humans have been deconned and tey only rebuild te rc and then someone says tey are ready.
So as long as teres 1 honest player this shouldnt be a problem.
I know if i was watching them rebuild the rc and tey tryed to say build other things id call "We ready" and let them get killed for trying to be a dick and rebuild more then we had.


Sorry for misspellings my keyboard is real screwy.

Best reaction to deconning is first !ban and then !restart.

That's been proven over and over again.
