Attacking an uncap is attacking an uncap. Following an enemy fighter over an uncap is not attacking the uncap. The same with a chopper
Making bombing runs on the uncap, dropping arty on the uncap and having a squad camp and steal vehicles while killing people as they spawn is attacking an uncap.
Find us a server that this actually works in and we can re evaluate.Quote:

Arty was reigning supreme on me no matter where, but I did get dusted as I spawned at an uncap. I chalked this up to being a newer server and not being used to the rules. I did not care much. What I do care about is the air toys and uncaps. You can fly away as fast as you flew up to it. If you are sneaking a peak to see if the chopper is there, then that is you fault for getting shot at. One time is not a big deal, so kill everything there, 2 0r 3 times shows a habit and I say kick 'em.
sorry about my sentance structure and my spelling I had a thought and wanted to get it down befor I frogot it.look like we had a realy good talk about it.hope some good come out of it . david just f-en with you
I say the vanilla stuff is still fine by me, but the few ties I have played SF, it was fun also. If its not a big thing, I could see designating one night a week for SF play. As for AF, I cant get mine working so I dont mind if its not in the rotation just yet. Whatever, its all good for me either way. I just like playin with MERCS and friends, so whatever its on, I'll play.

Here is a site I've played at that rotates as I mentioned. Take a look, I've also included another link that some may find interesting.

OK...
1st - Me and 2 of my friends that I brought to the server last night "LIB-Zohar" and "LIB-USMCKilla" Where experiencing Lag, mainly while flying... FragFood was with me when I would get connection failed messages for 1 or 2 seconds, then I would catch back up in time to pull the Chopper out of a nose dive to the ground... I did manage to kill FragFood 1 time due to the LAG. My 2 friends hung around the server because I asked them to join, however if it had been another server, they would have left for the same reasons. They were also complaining to me about glitchy'ness and lag.
2. Concerning uncaps... and I don’t mean any disrespect to the person who I asked about this situation... BUT
My friends are scolded by one of our MERC'S for attacking an uncap, they questioned me about it... I advised them not to do this, they agreed and did not hit another plane at the enemy uncap.. Next round they are getting hit repeatedly while trying to get the attack chopper off the base. They then ask me,,, what’s the deal Parker? I thought we were not suppose to do this? I told them I would speak with the MERC who was doing this.. the response I got back was "Well there not on the base when there 3 feet off the ground" Now It has been my experience that " IF " you want to gain server regulars then you "CAN NOT" have it both ways.. No matter what your reasons are for doing what you did at the time you did it.. it just don’t work...we make a rule we stick to it... Period... I was personally a little frustrated with the situation... but let it go until tonight when I had time to bring it up.
3rd - I agree totally with what LA_TECH is saying.. he’s been around the block a few times and from an outside point of view.. I think he’s dead on.
I feel we need to try and grow the basic server first before adding the X-mods that not everyone has. Your largest base of players are Vanilla BF2 players.. lets try to build our reputation and repeat server regulars based on our game play, our fairness and our intolerance for people who do not follow the rules... THIS is what made LA_MERC such a great CS 1.6 server, our players always complimented us on our ability to govern our server, enforce our rules.. and treat EVERYONE with respect and fairness... Not team stacking and such... In fact if the opposite team was getting their but handed to them round after round, after round, some of our best players would move to the other side to make it a fair fight.
" I want this new server to work, and am up for all Ideas... But the 1 Idea that I feel we must all adhere to is taking pride in the fact that we, as a Clan, Can and will run the fairest server know to the BF2 community.
Damn I missed out on a hot thread!! well better late than never... IMO we need to keep this thing straight bf2 until we develop a soild base. Who know... If we were to get some quality recruits out of this we "MIGHT" be able to get SF up all by itself...
The chopper stuff, I took full responsibility for it... I was driving it and Dragon was killing... nuff said. Hell I was telling Dragon to kill the hell out of the chopper. But once I'd been informed of our ROE we immediately moved off. Lets remember, the Uncap DOES NOT extend into the Air, once its up it's fair game in my book. Someone set me straight if I'm wrong please...
sry to yellow,
tell them dragon will not shoot them. that we will shake hands over the battle field but also tell them not to shoot me cause im loaded to gill on claymore and im waiting on the shot.... but seriously im sry dont have control of helio. i did shoot them down alot and im sry for that.
about server issue. i would like to see us keep it as it is and when it looks to be falling change to infatry only. and then look at other options down the road.
everyone has had problems when they first start out and if u build it they will come, if not then rebuild it differently and they will come. and so on so on.
just my veiws. sry yellow
Well guys, thanks for responding :)
Just letting you guys know Im not looking for any apolgies...I just wanted to bring up the situation as it was... If it seems to hard to enforce a rule such as "At what point is the Attack Chopper no longer considiered In the base" then maybe we need to keep it simple... No arty on Uncaps, no stealing plains and choppers from uncaps... Just juding from the confusion I had on No attacking the uncaps.. i can just imagine how may Pubbers are going to get that Rule Wrong..??

correct... Another thing is.. the "if it's airborne it's fair game" deal.. That could be true in a tight match, but if you are stomping a teams guts out it may be prudent to lay off a bit so as not to scare n00bs off with the threat of constant pwnage.. I mean damn... let them get up and have a fighting chance... I'm not saying broadcast a rule, but MERCs should take this into consideration I think.
