Lol, the first picture is impossible
If you don't actually know what you're talking about perhaps you shouldn't be the one beleaguering this argument.
- what the second picture doesn't show is he brings the long spear down instantly so that it stabs straight throuh the wall in actual practice - but as a piker I see you rationalizing that as allowed, when in fact its classified under the disallowed. You can stab someone over it but not through by abusing the animation. Stabbing over is not poking up for a second then stabbing someone with no exposed parts straight through the wall. Its actually stabbing someone with either head or some other part slightly exposed above the wall at the angle your picture shows.
Yes, there are ways to do it which are illegal. I tried to explain how the rule works with pinktext between deaths - something I'll phrase more succinctly next time. I did not see anyone doing it illegally during the battle, however, and most people stopped trying to pike over the wall entirely once the warning went out.
You can check with EU on this and find this is the actual rule. In the battle that took place the wall was 2 feet higher than people's heads so the only way to connect was actually stabbing through the solid object - which was repeatedly done and condoned by you even after we reported it.
The wall was tall, but at several points there was a ladder on the other side, giving people ample sight of the players standing on it on the other side. Pikemen were jumping to hit targets exposed near the top of the wall, which worked when enemies were jumping or on one of those ladders.
I didn't condone anything illicit, I tried to explain how the rule works and is being enforced. It's not as simple as "wall here, can't stab", but the warning should have been clearer regardless.
I understand your desire to stab straight through solid objects by momentarily pointing upwards with the long spear, but you are not allowed to hit someone where you have to stab through the solid object as the only way to get a hit - they actually have to have exposed parts otherwise you are just abusing the animation glitch problem that makes long spears so easy and abusable where you can stab always at any range or angle as long as you move it from a different angle from your initial stab.
I understand that you dislike me and think that my playstyle is cheesy and takes no skill, but I never try stabbing anyone I can't see through solid scene objects. I didn't see anyone else doing it during the fight in question, either, though I only started looking for it once the reports went out. (up until then I was moving in the center of the village on the other side of the wall) For the record, it is the pike, not the long spear, that is the greatest offender in the case of solid objects.
