Being invisible in radar/map which doesn't show up player in the map.
That make the game more hide and seek than an open  challenge or duel-able :/
Well maybe this is not okay for some players who prefer playing in scoped rifle as they want to stay invisible in map against the victim of another team.
In other hand this is more disturbed for players who prefer hand gun or assault rifile in a place

Thanks

Admins have a very special command called '/asay' used for this purpose.

Thanks all,

Command for weapon in the sense, the player have to draw himself to ammunition in order to use any kind of weapon code.
Doesn't have to upload whole new set of commands but   the same commands like "/wep" grenade or anything should work @ammunition, even this sounds realistic

=Signal= wrote:Respected VKs staff,

I'm =Signal=, a new player in VK server who was an active player in LW server.

Previous Nick: [TNC]Anonymou5, [aNon]Anonymous, Anonymou5

This is to know the staff of VK about some improvement in the server for better comfort in playing or just for better environment in the present server. Even though the server is at its best but it can be improved a lot in many ways which doesn't mean the server is bad

1.Maybe the cmd/chat bar need to be reviewed

The present chat bar is full of texts that already make it look like spammed by server itself, for example
Remove whole 'Information' thingy before showing up news, weather it's death update or commands I suggest developer to finish that part with just word color and by bolding it if it is something important.
Rest of all messages should be in same formal way or in a formal sentence.

Instead of showing:
Information: =Signal= killed Nick(M4) (Head)

Show it like this:
=Signal= killed Nick using a M4 to head.

2. Notification for cabinet members.

Admin and Moderator should have a special superiority to message players in cmd/chat bar. That actually give them a standard of being an admin or mod, hence they will respect what they are also the players will be more punctual about the rule.
Instead of pinging so many message like talkative warning, an admin or moderator can show up in their special messaging lines like:

(Admin)VK.Angel.OfDeath: Hello
(Moderator)MaSoN^:Heya

(Well the names I used in cabinet are just assumptive in a way to understand.)

3.Changes that may make the server more official, the name Vks official server tho

* /turnoff radar should be cancelled as it make new player uncomfort and its not official though.

* Command for explosion should bring to the limit as the explosion is making skilled players to quit the game and play any server where only guns and limited explosions are available. Maybe weapons command should work only inside ammunition and also the counts should be expensive.(Skilled players don't look for explosions)

*Team killers should be kicked by server as it can can avoid much foolish players to the end of fear.

Anyway I don't know which one is acceptable by VKs staff but still I suggested it to see VKs Official Server at its best and fit in a simple and neat way.

Thank y'all

I am just going to post this quick if something doesn't make sense it's probably because I wrote this really fast.

0. I received your PM and accepted your team request (Edit: I seriously wrote team request lol, I meant friend request :S). When you start playing on other servers you get used to how the server you play at works. I can understand why you as an LW player prefer somethings. I for one like LW for it's simplicity and very clear commands. But I don't like how the chat is spammed by !cmds for example which is why I always played on XE back in 0.3. We all have our personal tastes. LW is it's own unique thing and VK is it's own thing.

1. We got a command called /configmessage to remove spam from the chat and make it easier to read. The way the messages look is a personal taste and is one of the 4 things that makes a server stand out the most (the other three things are: The spawn screen, the vehicles and the skins/teams). If we changed our spawn screen for example I don't think we would be VKs anymore to be honest. The chat is kinda not as important as the spawn screen perhaps for a server's identity. We like the information thing but we are opened to improvements. I do think that the first word in a message is the only word you will look at together with the color. If you see a green message you immediately know that it's a cmd message, if you see an orange message you immediately know that it's a server message. If you see something brownish you know it's a team chat and so on...

2. We had a /say command in 0.3, not sure why I haven't thought about adding it in 0.4. But I can definitely add a /say command. I don't think an admins rank is necessary to display every time they type something. It's better to have it as an option for the admin, in my opinion with (/say). This is on my list btw.

3.1. /radaroff: We here at VKs welcomes every type of player. We aren't officially a DM server, we are more of a freeroaming server. But that doesn't mean that you can't play on it like it was a DM server. The thing is that if someone doesn't want to DM they have the option to use /radaroff and /nogoto on to not be disturb. If someone doesn't want to fight you, they are not going to fight.

Should we maybe disallow DMer's to radaroff? That's up for discussion, but VKs have worked like this for 4 years and there hasn't been any major problems.

3.2. Disable explosives. No we are not going to disable explosives. We have added a script to prevent people from rocket glitching/fast switching, which should help a little. But the RPG and the grenade is a part of the game, the same goes for driveby. Why do we have to be mean to the noobs? Do they want to play if they feel powerless. I mean if I have to go up against a player like stylish I would probably get bored from fighting him with stubby and m4, since he would most likely own the shit out of me and that would be no fun. With rocket, driveby's and grenades it gives me a little of an advantage and makes up for my lack of skills, which makes it more fun for me and gives more challenge to stylish. I think it's good that pro players can still find some challenge battling noobs because they are using different weapons.

Also if you don't like driveby, RPG or any sort of weapons like that. I got a solution for you: CUSTOM PROPERTIES! In custom propeties you can make your own rules with the help of our scripts, so that if players like stylish just want to fight people with m4 and stubby he can create those rules for his property.

I don't know about you guys but I think the way it's working right now works the best for everyone. If you disagree with me feel free to post argue.

3.3. Not sure why this is necessary, team killers get auto killed. I think that's enough, but this is open for discussions.

It has been the tradition since the dawn of 0.4 that we've enrolled the certain syntax which makes our server a bit different. If someone is grieved because of the annoying server messages then I guess there is something called as /configmessage

Signal, I'm glad that you've joined our community, It's really an honor for me to reply something to you. Signal, by the time I joined the community I felt it in the way like you feel it now. But afterwards I gradually started to get accustomed to it and came to a point where I felt that those messages are really helpful.
