Pollution of waterpools

[Tatum 1]

When an animal/player/infected gets killed in a waterpool, it should be polluted till next serverrestart. Bodies would still disapear and at first sight the water is fine, but unknowing suvivors filling up and drinking the infected water should become sick. Only way to cure the sickness is ofcourse antibiotics :)

Points for creativity, but I think this would just open the door to more trolling. And as we all know, we have far too much of that already. Player Ghosting, alt-f4'ing, putting up tank traps and wire obstacles in front of high value loot buildings, etc. etc. Something like polluting a water would give the Trollozoids a friggin hard-on like you wouldn't believe.

Well you could also make the mechanic a part of the game. For instant, waterpools who are infected could stay infected. You would also clearly see that the water is infected cause of a distinct color (yellow) and maybe some mosquito soundloops. An extra item would also have to be added that drops commonly in supermarkets, called "Water purification tablets" Players could then use that item to clear an infected pool and tap water from it once more. To me that would feel like a good addition to the deeper smaller layers of day z.
