Tezuni's Slopes CTF

From seeing how this works out I can say that this build needs a lot of work in order to be truly enjoyable.
First off: the bases are way too far apart for a good and proper capture the flag. Capture the flag is about holding off the constant threat to your base, while also trying to overtake the enemy base. By placing them further apart, you trivialize both aspects of the game.
Second: this mainly seems to be mostly stolen in idea from that one slopes TDM we had before the terrain maps were gone for good. You pretty much turned THAT into a CTF.
Third: the vehicles... way too many and causes the game to be overpowered, as people just get in them and run anyone not in a vehicle over.
Fouth: Spawn camping is too easy due to the overpowered weapons and team disguise kit.
Fifth: You used the team disguise kit.
Overal: If you want a good CTF, you need to reduce the amount of weapons available to only a very few. Also make it so that the flag carrier cannot wield powerful weapons. Move the bases closer together. After moving bases closer, just delete all vehicles, because they make no sense in a CTF game.
Don't take this the wrong way, but I really think you have the potential to make this a better server. But as it stands now, I really can't say much for this server.

No, this is a long distance base wars CTF with vehicles. And CTF means capture the flag, not something else limited to your ideas.
I don't perma-ban people for giving ideas. I ban them for being starfishs.
Also, base wars and CTF is a very broad game concept, you can't 'steal' it.
Igloos:
Being an starfish isn't an offense.
You banned me because I said "this server is very unorganized and poorly administrated". You can't prevent my freedoms of speech. I can be opinionated if I want too.

I'm pretty sure, seeing as I've played many games, that it's fairly common not to have the bases super far apart. The only part of your server that seems to tie into what we normally see in a CTF map, is the fact that the bases are easy to get into, which is proper in a CTF map. My ideas are not limited. I was being pretty darn broad, and general about CTF as a whole. However, if you don't agree with me, that is your choice, and I DO respect that.

The game mode.. No. Of course you can't steal it.. However the fact that both things I've seen (yours and the old one I saw), have many things in common, both in how they look, and how they work out. Both have white slopes based maps. Both have bases really far apart, Both have many vehicles. Both have holes in the map filled with water. So many similarities, that I find it hard to believe that this is just a coincidence. I could be wrong, but usually when there are so many similarities, it means something was just re-used (in idea that is, not saying a direct copy, which of course is impossible). Pretty common in human nature, but most don't want to at least admit when they copied an idea. This is also why things become so stale.

Being an starfish is an offense if the host says it is. A host could say using your player light is an offense and ban you for that. I'm pretty sure they make up what is considered an offense on their own server.

You are right, but it's disgusting how he bans people for disagreeing with him. And he expects donations, lol'd.
