=MeRk= UK REALITY (Europe)

[Jedimushroom]

There has to be a less ambiguous way of phrasing that rule, I can't really think of one though.

Welcome to our world ^^

So...the no rush rule it must go.

First it deviates a lot from other servers, the majority only uses a "No first flag rush".

And secondly It depends to much on maps, for example, I've witness players being killed 'cause they're rushing the crooked T-Buildings on muttrah yet on Kozelsk APCs were allowed to rush G8, past bridges and way far from the main -> tunnels path and no admins commented on that.

Furthermore only when I commented that I got 2x "Merk" replies saying something like "Yes, but this is an invasion type AAS which makes it ok."

I admit that map as a stupid DOD with even more problematic flag layout but I feel that this rules brings more harm that good.

Well this was decided on a full Clan TS Meeting and all of =MeRk= is in agreement. I don't see it changing any time soon.

Heya. After a little incident today regarding MECH INF I tried to check up what rules MeRk has. But I can't find anything on your website specifically about Mech Inf. I think it would be nice to have it written down somewhere because we found ourselves in a pretty long argument with some players accusing us of stealing because nobody knew the rules. Thx to the admin who came and cleared it out though!

[The Iron Dreamer]

Hey Stompa! Thanks for the post and we'll look into it.

It can easily be abused by a status quo or a group of friends who just wants someone to suffer.

The current system with admins allows us to force players who might not like eachother to play togheter.

I think it would be more fun if everyone had admin rights. This would basically be a wild west. Everyone has a gun!

Bullshit. I've never seen an admin spend 30 seconds on banning someone. He either warns them, ignores it or bans outright. Bull shit. Your server or any other on PR.

Having to actually convince the community to do something about someone would actually take more effort than convincing an admin to abuse someone else.

Inconsitent Rules, Bad Gameplay, Bad Server

might want to explain your situation a little bit ? that way nothing will get better.

Hi Birnd!

Would you care to elaborate?

How are our rules inconsistent? The only rule we have tinkered with is the rushing rule, which we have tried to make easier to understand.

As for "bad gameplay", there is only so much we as admins can do to encourage the opposite. We try our utmost to keep the teams balanced, get rid of people who ruins the fun for everyone else and play all different types of maps, however good/bad gameplay is just as much your responsibility (as player), as it is ours. If you feel we have failed in the above in any respect, please let us know.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "bad server", but I assume you put it there to summarize and that you don't have a problem with the actual hardware.

Thank you for your feedback

As pointed out, if you could be a bit more substantial in your criticism we could maybe work something out?

Update your battlerecorder library you lazy ********

[3ti65]

A lil bit less 4km mhkay?

[STompa]

Yeah I agree with 3ti's sentiment. Would be nice to have a bit more variation of gameplay. For people like me who prefer infantry it was kind of annoying today to play i think 5-6 rounds of 4km maps in a row (or even more) except Marlin.

[=MeRk= BluFFeR]

Copy that fellas, will pass it out to our admins..

I haven't played PR in a while and decided to boot it up once, but i accidentally joined the MeRK server.

At first i didn't notice it and had a normal game with a nice squad, but then I saw that the admins were pointlessly bickering with players about trivial things. A squad was moving to a flag that wasn't in play yet and the admins got mad and abusive towards that squad. It wasn't even the first flag of the enemy team.

I already stated in this thread before how MeRK has a lot of arbitrary rules that I don't agree with and I'm glad to see i'm still not the only one.


"This server is horrible. The server is poorly administrated and is populated by bad admins who make up arbitrary rules that hurts gameplay more than it helps. I would avoid this server if I were you".

[Tit4Tat]

Thanks for the feedback, we will sure to look into your concerns, asap.




Btw you do have a habit of scrutinizing servers if i remember correctly....oh well, keep calm and troll along

Well, the rule revision was only done a while ago, maybe it was someone who came back from a longer break and didn't know about it? Maybe the squad got confused with the rule, since the rule doesn't state that the first flag in the enemy's sequence is off-limits rather than the first grey flag for them.

During the last 2+ years when I started to play PR more regularly than before there's only a few instances that I can recall when something wasn't handled properly or immediately. You played one round in which the Merk admins made one mistake(keep in mind they're still humans though), and think that that qualifies as a suifficient sample size to make such a broad statement? Not to mention there were likely several reports going on during the round that they handled correctly, but nope, let's focus only on the negatives, call it a badly administrated server and leave it at that.

[disnoxxio]

Just a little shoutout, MERK is the only one on the EU continent at this moment that seems to find a good and proper balance between AAS and Insurgency but also the administration is strict and serves with justice at least.

Thanks for the weekends at least. At this point you're the only one at EU .
