Gadgetzan attacking from roof?

[Hammersplat]

It's just another day in gadgetzan! They were on the buildings on the other side too :p You can also get on the roof in duskwood. In vanilla eventually blizzard put guards up there.

im a huge faggot

why do you even post here and spew your shit on the forums if you dont play?

Simple. I'm working towards a Masters degree at a university and I've been documenting many steps that this project has been going through. It has a LARGE amount of similarities to what a small to medium sized business might have. I'll probably write a paper about Nostalrius, especially focusing on the hype generated from announcements, videos, to the actual launch and how closely it met those implied features and work done.

This is just another area that the project and its staff has to handle - how closely will it attempt to match the features and limitations of a true pre burning crusade Blizzard retail server? If it falls short, what decisions were made involving modifications that the staff felt were necessary, and what purpose did these changes meet?

Some decisions for alterations are good ones. An example of this would be the No Multiboxing policy as hardware has come a LONG ways since 2005, as well as the project not asking for a monthly subscription from the players. It only makes sense that it was banned.

So I'm looking at this stated policy by Blizzard for the 2005 / 2006 era that this server seeks to replicate, and I'm awaiting the obvious policy that will be given by the staff of "Rooftop Camping and Geometry Exploiting won't be against the rules or enforced in anyway". And then I'm going to record the reason and move on to the next issue that's a difference between what is offered and what was classic.

It's only a side benefit that not allowing these issues to be ignored generates copious amounts of your tears that sustain me. I thought I went over that before?

If it's red, it's dead.

No shitty goblin mercenary is going to stop me. I will actively look for you and find you when you think you can relax and I will shamelessly and brutally murder your online persona.

I'd expect all of you losers to do the same thing if you were in my position of power.

Stay weak and keep feeding me delicious honor points

Well if it's not bannable here I'm ok with that. Good to know. I just tried some private servers where they had this in their rules

Clarification on safe-spotting

Attacking other players while standing on a spot where the guards cannot reach you is no longer allowed, casting through roofs is considered bug abuse.

Hello everyone!

I'm not sure if there is still confusion on this matter, but I'll try to clear it up.

We DO allow SafeSpotting on this server. If you can get to a spot without any illegal means, you're free to attack from there. This may change in the future and if it does, we will let you know.

HOWEVER

If you use any sort of method to attack through a roof INTO a building, that is strictly prohibited. Spells like Blizzard, Volley, etc are NOT to be used to attack players inside a building by attacking THROUGH the roof. This is a bannable offense.

If you see any players attacking in this manner, please screenshot it and either submit a ticket or PM me with a link to the screenshot.



So if you see people fighting from the rooftops or from other SafeSpots, we suggest you rally your troops and fight hard to retaliate!

-Witcher

p.s. You are free to request that a GM intervene and ask any SafeSpotters to stop, however, we are neither obligated to ask the player to stop nor are we obligated to punish a player for not moving.

Sweet!
