Please only create sits if someone has directly broken a server rule
On a real what I mean by weaponised staff sits is people only calling sits to impede someone else on the other team BECAUSE they are on the other team.
People champion their own team when they say things such as 'Nice SCUD' but if someone on the opposite team did it they'd want blood. There's a lot of hypocrisy and it's not at all consistent.
For example: You wouldn't call a minor combat jump sit on a team-mate who is blatantly breaking the rule, but as soon as some random PVT on the other team does it, it's straight to a sit and demanded they be permanently banned
I'm not saying don't report for rule breaks, I'm saying people need to stop instantly jumping to sits for minor things, and 'toxicity' in /ooc is being VERY aggressively spanked down, despite it (most of the time) being banter. If NATO said 'nice SCUD' to me after a bad SCUD I'd laugh at it, call them tossers and move on, if that was to happen these days they'd be warns, mutes and so on.
It's becoming more damaging to the player experience than being more lenient, I appreciate the staff team correcting to a more maturity-focused stance but I believe it's been overly corrected and needs to swing ever so slightly back in the other direction.
Weaponised staff sits are a big aspect of this, people have and will continue to make sits against the other team for the smallest of infractions, which leads to more definition being needed, arguments being had, then a new rule is implemented over it, nobody wants to play somewhere where there is a rule for every aspect of roleplay or player behaviour. Falcon actually has this right in some aspect, as he often refused to clarify points and allowed it to be to the judgement of the staff member handling it.
Again - weaponised sits are usually valid rule breaks, but my point is if you won't report a member of your own team for the exact same thing then you're a hypocrite and should set fire to your router. They don't want a rule break punished, they want the other team warned.
