    Are you saying Artillery and airplanes are NOT weapons? Are you saying that a rule that says you can not use them is NOT a RESTRICTION?

    It is painfully obvious you want it to say something it does not. And you insult ME about my reading skills?

      This is english. Grab a dictionairy and look up the words. Explain to me how you get from "
      may not ... enforce restrictions on vehicles or weapons that players can use while on your server" to its OK to restrict vehicles and weapons. The words are just not there. You are trying to add the words "who uses" to this. You WANT it to read ""Server administrators may not explicitly or implicitly (by actions) enforce restrictions on WHO USES vehicles or weapons that players can use while on your server".

      Those words ARE SIMPLY NOT THERE. You and everyone else need to stop adding them.

      "may not ... enforce restrictions on vehicles or weapons that players can use while on your server"

      Seriously, I can't figure out how you're not able to understand this sentence. You think that people have been adding words that aren't there, but in fact people are just trying to rephrase it so that you can see what you're failing to grasp.

      You're right though, it says that admins cannot enforce restrictions on vehicles or weapons that players can use. The problem is that no matter how plain and simple that is, there will still be people out there who can't figure it out.

      You remind of Bill Clinton:

      "I did not have sexual relations with that woman"

      But she performed oral sex on you...

      "Well yeah. I said I did not have Sexual relations with her. Duh.

      ........
      Are you ****ing serious?

      "Look, you're the one wanting to twist the words around here. She gave me head, but I didn't have sexual relations with her. Seriously, I don't understand why this eludes you.

      I give up.

        Have you ever tried to nail Jell-O to a tree? Explaining this to you is a lot like that.

        This rule:
        §1.5 Server administrators may not explicitly or implicitly (by actions) enforce restrictions on vehicles or weapons that players can use while on your server (e.g. knives only, aircraft prohibited except for clan members, etc.)
        § Infantry only Servers
        § Kicking Players who use vehicles or aircraft
        § Limiting certain vehicles or aircraft for non clan members


        This rule deals with restricting physical weapons/vehicles. Pretty simple.

        You mentioned earlier that people were inserting the words "who uses" into this statement, and you even used some flashy red letters to illustrate your point. I guess you were just too busy getting creative to notice this: "§ Kicking Players who use vehicles or aircraft"

        "Who use" There it is, right there.

        You (read: admin) cannot impose a "no flying" rule and kick people who fly.
        You cannot kick/bann players who use vehicles/planes because you want an "infantry only" server.
        You cannot impose a rule that states that only certain members are allowed to fly/use particular vehicle.


        Now, the other rule.
        This would include but not limited to:
        § Artillery fire or bombing runs on main (uncapturable) bases may be prohibited.
        § Prolonged or sustained attacks on main (uncapturable) bases (i.e. spawncamping).
        § Using the Transport Helicopters to take flags (Blackhawk whoring or flag hopping).
        § Impersonating clan members.
        § Using C4 on jeeps, or other fast moving vehicles to take out other vehicles.
        § Clans may change or customize rules, provided they don’t violate the above ROE rules.


        The other rule deals with vehicles & weapons and restricting access to those objects. This rule deals with the manner in which these vehicles/weapons can be used.

        Let's pretend that rule #1 listed here is represented in red, while rule #2 is represented in blue, since you like colors so much.

        Players are allowed to use jets, but they are not allowed to bomb a main base with them.

        Rule #1 states that anyone can use a jet if they like, and no one can stop them from flying it. Rule #2 states that the person flying the jet can't drop bombs in a main base. These two statements are not in conflict.

        In real life, you are allowed to drive a car. You are not allowed to drive a car into the front window of the local Dairy Queen.


        Rule #1: Can't tell people that they're not allowed to use certain weapons/vehicles.

        Rule#2: Can tell people how they're allowed to use those weapons/vehicles.

          "may not ... enforce restrictions on vehicles or weapons that players can use while on your server"


          That says you can not restrict which vehicals, or weapons are used on your server. Theyfollow that with an example : 'No knife only servers', or no 'no grenade launcher servers'.
          That should be obvious.
          It say's nothing about restricting where those weapons can be used on the map.

          Then they give an example in section #3 of rules that they say private ranked servers can make like no spawn camping non-cap, no base rapes, no C4 jeeps. They are not restricting the weapons themselves, just some of the uses of them, any only on private servers. If you don't like that, (or can't comprehend it), then play on a EA server.

            wulf ------ the rule means that you cannot alter the server so that there is only pistols or only knives..... or only jeeps......

            the clan/squad whoever is allowed to make fair play rules if the person who is shelling out the big bucks for his server deosn;t want any bunny hoppers its his right or base raping

            my problem is with server admins who forget about those rules when it benefits them IMA!!!!!!! being the biggest cheaters on the planet

            if the server says no uncappalbe raping then sourround it and wait for them to come out if you are getting raped and dont like it then leave simple as that

                  Lets just get this down and understood before we go any further.

                    There you go again, throwing the extra words in. Now all the sudden it is "which" vehicles you can use. I'm sorry, NO RESTRICTIONS means NO RESTRICTIONS. Telling me WHERE I can use it is a restriction is it not?

                      Re: kicked for base raping?!!?

                      Wow, you are obtuse. They clearly say that you can not restrict the vehicles or weapons a player can use, meaning you can not ban certain weapons, or vehicles. They even give an example of what they mean: no 'knife only servers'. Can you not grasp that?

                      Then they clearly say in section #3 on Private ranked servers, you can ban the use of certian things. They themselves give acceptable examples. No base raping, No artty on non-caps. It's in their own words.

                      How come everyone else but you can understand that? They even give examples for people with poor reading comprehension skills. How can they make it any simpler?

                        No. Artillery and airplanes are indeed weapons.

                        No. If a rule says that you can't use a weapon at all, that would be a restriction. If a rule says that you can't use a weapon in a certain manner, that would also be a restriction. They're both restrictions, but they're restrictions on different things.

                        If a rule says "No one can use artillery" on a ranked server, then it is in violation of Rule #1 (Using "#1" and "#2" for clarity.)

                        Hope that makes you happy.


                        I'll ask you a couple of questions (Let's keep them "Yes" and "No"):

                        Do you have the right to own a baseball bat?

                        Do you have the right to go up to the old man in the wheel chair that greets you when you go into Wal-Mart and hit him in the face with your baseball bat?

                        Lets just get this down and understood before we go any further.

                        I'll be willing to bet that you either don't answer, or somehow manage to get the answers wrong.
