"I'M FIRING NOW GET READY"
"Ready for what?"
*Server Lags Out*

Don't you just love the people who, when they do something stupid that lags out the server, they take the time and consideration to tell you that they're doing it, and to get ready to lag like hell? I sure know I do. /sarcasm

I've been in many situations such as this, where a person finds it necessary to build something that spawns an INSANE explosion. One where they have some large relay event, or an infinite looping projectile. That kind of thing. They know it's going to lag. They know it's going to make the server a laggy hell. But do they stop? Of course not. Instead, they take the kindness of notifying everyone that they're about to do it. AND THEN THEY DO IT. (Usually several times over, because "it was cool".)

I just don't understand this way of thinking. "I'm doing something insane, so everyone else needs to stop what they're doing and wait for them to be over. But it's okay, because I told them it would happen." Now of course, justice is usually served and they get banned from the server afterwards. (Probably to soon go off upset about their butthurtedness using "I told them" as an excuse to try and nullify that it was their own fault.)

/rant.



^^^ There's your problem.

On A Serious Note: That's why freebuilds should either...

A) Have observant admins that aren't five.
B) Be a pirvate server.

That is also another reason why I usually build ALONE or at least with one or two people that I trust.

A) Have observant admins that aren't five.
B) Be a pirvate server.
A) :l really?

B) BOAUT THAEN ITS NUT A FRBILD BCUZ NUT EVRY1 CN CUME!!

I'm pretty sure you didn't get it.

You'll notice that I imitated you when you said "wHAT THE forget IS THIS stuff?" This happens when you hit Caps Lock and then press the Shift key to "capitalize" the first letter.

as a server owner ive had many situations like that, everyone knows that it sux and here is the best thing to do: BAN THEM, for as long as u want, cause in my experiance kicking does not work on some pple

I sometimes do this, but as a precaution and when I'm a server admin.

I say: Okay guys, I'm testing an event that may lag a bit. I don't repeat I just fix it or whatever

Wow, either those people have really bad event loops or they're just plain doing it wrong. Whenever me and my boy HPRC "lag" servers it always crashes before either of us get banned, and if one did get banned the other would just re-start the explosion.

Come to one of my dedicated servers. See if you can get them to crash.

I say "Prepare for lag" When I'm about to duplicate something big or i think it might screw up.

Also, it's better than them not telling you, right?

Which is still worse than them just not doing it.
