Ban Axie

[Aixie]

Why is this even an issue worth a ban or punishment?
First off, it was 3 minutes. Three. This wasn't an every game thing, this wasn't a recurring issue, this was a one time thing.
Second, it was both parties at fault. I'm an archer, I've got 51 proficiency in 1 handed, why in the fuck would I fight a dedicated melee build?
Third, charging me is certain death as he has to make parkour without a shield while being shot at. If he didn't charge, he just wastes 3 minutes and lets me win. There's no good outcome for that situation for him. Either of us could've initiated and risked a loss, but I'm not throwing my advantage. A thrower or an agi archer isn't punished for kiting, this is no different. I held him at a point where he couldn't attack, while capturing flag.
This is a joke Dynamics, its a game, go watch porn or something and stop getting so upset. It was 3 minutes.

It wasn't just my time you wasted it was everyone else in game aswell. I put the ban thread up because people asked for it and frankly I don't want to see this type of shit when I play cRPG.

You took more time to make this thread and complain than time your teammate wasted by not attacking.

You're right. I could've killed myself by jumping down and saved everyone 3 minutes, and ruined the x5 of my entire team.
Your teammate could've killed himself by trying to jump up and save everyone 3 minutes, and keep the x5 of my entire team.

Instead, I captured the flag. End of story?

This right here. Sure I would've been pissed that we had to wait for three minutes as this standoff took place, but Aixie is right. Either player could've initiated the final battle but both didn't want to lose. How is this banworthy? This is another shit banthread people.

I was there during this.  She did stand on the roof and did nothing for the entire duration.  She couldn't shoot the person on the ground and the person on the ground couldn't get to the roof without being pummeled by arrows; however, both could stand on the flag.

From the looks of it, the flags were both locked, as Aixie and Zorkly were practically standing on top of each other.
Is that right? Or did the flags bug out and the round just continued for the remaining three minutes?

The flags were locked as they were both standing on top of each other yes . But Axie knowing fully well that she couldn't shoot Zorkly from her current position chose to stay on the rooftop instead of jumping down and engaging in melee where either person could have won. Most archers in that kind of situation would have put down the bow an engaged the enemy instead of sitting on a roof while the server watched for 3 whole minutes. Also judging by Axie's smart comment "brb gonna go take a shit" it was pretty clear she didn't care about wasting peoples time.

Counterpoint: Zorkly could've stormed the tower like a brave warrior instead of hiding below because he didn't want to get shot.

Both people wasted your time. If Axie jumps down she runs the chance of losing in melee. If Zorkly goes full parkour he runs the risk of gettIng shot. My point still stands, this is a shit banthread with no clear winner.

Case closed. Warnings to both parties to waste three minutes or the equivalent when you're the last two alive. If it happens again your punishments will be harsher due to this counting as your first offense. /thread

Basically, yeah.

If it were me standing on top of the roof, I'd have jumped down as soon as it was clear I wasn't going to get another shot off.
That typically means I'm dead (because I'm shit), but it provides everyone their disappointment immediately instead of taking three minutes.
It's not terribly fair for archers, no, but it's no different with HA's when the flags bug; if the flag is raised but the round hasn't ended, the HA needs to run over to the enemies and fight in melee.
Had both Aixie and Zorkly have had ranged options, it'd be one thing, and had they both been full melee builds, it'd be another.

Just be considerate, both of you, to other players in the future.
If one of you doesn't budge, the other player needs to do something.
