Laggers must go!
#1
You know it takes a lot to make me kick someone but some of the players that have been lagging lately have even been frustrating me. Zith in particular I could aim directly at him and have 6 shots go through him and he fires off one and decaps me. He didn't brag about his score so I believed him when he said he was frustrated also. I just know that this has got to be getting on the nerves of some of the better players and I want some input into when is it appropriate to kick someone because they are lagging. Keep in mind our admins have been asked to kick players who "interrupt the flow of the game". This includes afks and suicide players and I think it should include certain players who lag. I don’t think I have to explain to the regulars what I mean by lag…not the occasional spike nor even someone with a smooth flowing gate that is slow. I am addressing those players who habitually jerk and reappear or those who the disk do not kill. None of the regulars suffer from this so there is no need to get defensive. Fact is I have known regulars who were lagging that logged off so as not to cause problems in the flow of the game. Is there anyone who enjoys the game when they get paired up with a lagger?
