Hi all,
I was kicked for baserape, I want to say that Im sad because I tought that in this game this is unacceptable.
I love this mod and I think that this game need not this rules.
I think that if we are in map wich the enemy have got only one flag, is correct that while some people is defending another people must to go to the last enemy flag. I think this is logical.
I think that some admins must to appreciate the job of the PR developers and must to leave players to play.
I hope that you understand my goodable english. And hope that more people think like me.
Bye.

The Mods ,except over SSM, Have no say on how people run their servers.
If you dont like the server then play in another one

Yes, but if this happen in a very popular server I think that is lamentable.

Most servers have this rule and most people who play in these servers respect this rule.
If you don't like it then find a server which doesn't have this rule.

Rules are rules, it's as simple as following them, if you can't you get booted.
BTW, contact the server admins, not the PR Forums.

Well to be fair, it sounded like it was not baserape but an attack on the last remaining flag and some servers keep the old vanilla, uncap based rules.
It does suck to get spawn killed but that is the price you pay when you lose all the flags.

Then again, are you sure the last flag was not an uncap?
I had a good chuckle the other day as the Chineese got PLA Main Base blown to smitters with 2 tanks, 1 apc, 1 attackchopper and the entire US army in Sunset City while a few gamers cried bloody murder and demanded they all be banned from the server.

I see no issue if it's there last base. If the team is dumb enough to not mount a proper defense. Then they should suffer the consequences.

I gotta say I agree with this one.
However, I am not a supporter of a whole bunch of extranious "rules" that are not part of the game mechanics. If the server is going to kick for "baserape" they should also kick for whining, not listening to CO or SL, and other idiotic behavior that is actually disruptive to game play.

I would love to see server admins kicking people for
really disruptive behaviour rather than for "baseraping" -- Unless the raping team has all the other flags captured (hence, already won the round anyway) it will always suffer a disadvantage when certain squads engage in baseraping rather than helping secure the rest of the map, so I can't see why it shouldn't be a valid tactic.
Also, speaking of kicking people for stupid stuff ...
Just the other day I led a squad on Kashan desert and was generally having a good time with some nice squad members when, totally out of the blue, I get kicked for ... "saying the word 'hell'!"
The actual context was me saying to some guy in another squad next to me "There's no way in hell hitting that tank from here".
And I got booted for that.
We're playing a game where we shoot each others brains out, but god beware if your mommy comes into your room and reads swear words on the screen!

Baserape is equal to griefing; there is no strategic value whatsoever unless it's the last flag to be capped, and in most cases we just !runnext to avoid the next 20 minutes of senseless carnage and looking for 3 people hiding on the other side of the map.
People do not want to play on a server where they get killed 2 seconds after spawning in their main base. Admins are aware of this, and that's why it's a rule on most servers.

I disagree, however legitimate or not baseraping without all the flags is, it can be useful for eliminating enemy assets. However that said, I do not like getting killed as soon as I spawn at my main base, IF the enemy doesn´t have all the flags. If they do, and the last flag is uncappable (example: Kashan desert) then they should MOVE IN and TAKE the flag, not sit on the hills waiting for everyone to spawn and baserape away.
