Sigh... Striker, no point in feeding the troll. This guy is fairly amusing though and I sincerely hope he goes ahead and reports us (for whatever his reasoning is, I laughed my ass off to this last one). Just ignore his messages.

Please see this topic for instructions on that. For more exposure' date=' I'd recommend you to make a post either here or here about this (if you haven't done so already). :)

We're in the process of mobilizing our staff. Unfortunately though, due to every single one of us getting killed last night by a hacker, we're unable to get into location as quickly as we'd like to. Sorry for the inconvienience. Also a clarification on that player list thingy. If you look at the playerlist found in map, you WILL see the tag. You know it's legit by clicking my name and you will see all the info (along with the Swiss flag). You can't see the [FTC] tag in the lobby playerlist though.

Also: Will be Seattle 64.

By the way, why Seattle 64 and not 104? EDIT: I mean, why not just transfer to our "own" servers already since our stuff got so royally wrecked on 64 last night anyway?

Disregard this thread! The OP is a known bandit and is banned from Freeside. He has no affiliation with the organization whatsoever. Only announcements/statements posted by Freeside staff on the Freeside thread and the Freeside forum board should be regarded as official information.

Eh... :huh:

Sigh. You will definitely NOT get banned for using either hacked guns or vehicles. The risk is there if you are found doing so multiple times (can be reasoned as an intentional action at that point). Some people just play the game and spend zero time reading the forums or wikis etc. You cannot punish somebody for unintentionally "breaking the rules", plain and simple. Use of common sense is allowed, even here. EDIT: Oh and by the way, usage of vehicles can't even tehcnically be detected so only the person who has illegitimately spawned the a/c is going to be struck by the banhammer eventually.

Freshly spawned people are not going to be too much of a concern since they don't have any weapons at first. With that in mind the guards can merely just observe their movements around the post for any suspicious activity. There will most likely also be a bunch of zombies wandering around to chase off all those helpless newly born survivors. :D

I'd say leave the crowbar as it is for now. Otherwise it will become "too easy" to have these items since you can just hoard them to the tool slots and only use when needed. Let's not make life too simple after all. ;)
