Common sense

[Meow]

Although there are no set strat rules, the common sense rule obviously also goes for this.
If people use ladders and stuff to basically bug flags they can expect to be banned for a while and by a while I mean at least the time it takes to randomly respawn you on the eu side without troops.

Rule of thumb: If it is obvious exploiting as in an unfair advantage for your team and ruining the fun of everyone else - don't do it.

its not like it is happening all the time

I *could* think of a fairly recent example...

[Malaclypse]

My only hope is that at some point a legitimate way to build a garrison or fort is afforded us (think like, sallying the wagons style, small spiked barricades).

Yeah, let's talk about common sense, right Soa, Fallen, Hre, Wolves?

I was not trying to exploit, i still had a ladder equipped with a 2h weapon, but then the 2h ran out and i spawned with a ladder, i immediately threw it in sheer panic...
My apologies if this was misconstrued as exploit or bugabuse.

I forgot to mention, as you can see on the screenshots, it was at the beginning of the battle, before the attackers spawned.

[Lepintoi]

we didnt place it on the flags...

Make pikewalls u can buy, against cavalry like in total war.

Sure "not", you placed it on the trees. 

[Haboe]

Sure "not", you placed it on the trees. 

Its a pretty valid tactic to put stuff on the ground to make it harder for enemy cav to reach you... Ladders placed around flag area is not cheating at all, placing it ON the flags might be considered cheating.

Haboe, it was sarcasm. ;)

[Haboe]

The post with all the pictures was sarcasm?

Just pictures you toke of them walking with swags.

You can use ladders to interrupt cavalry charges, right?

[Sandersson Jankins]

Is it acceptable to use ladders as makeshift fortifications in field battles? Is it acceptable to stack those ladders on top of one another?

It seems to me that if you need fortifications, buy some damn siege shields. It's cheesy as fuck to have a bunch of ladders laying on the ground to fuck up both mounted and unmounted troops' movements and to assist in arrow blocking.

If these things are not acceptable, who do you report these violations to? Is it a different person for NA players and EU players? If that person does not take action on the rule violators, what is the proper course of action?

I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.
