    suggestion to update ttt rules

    its crazy insane how many retards neglect the rules or misunderstand the rules, especially regarding SEEING people commit t acts. i suggest that we add like a mini tutorial video to explain basic rules like unid bodies and what rdm off location vs no rdm looks like. maybe we will have less incidence of rule breaks amongst new players who think they understand the rules even though they probably should as its written in plain english and fine as is.

    thoughts on making and adding a video to the rules to explain common misconceptions about the rules laid out in writing?

    Unfortunately a lot of the time when players break rules it when they haven’t bothered to go to them or they know them and break them anyway. A short how to play guide or video may be something that could help but it’s just about getting players to go to it. Also as pyra said above even the the new simplified rules that I worked on to help players understand the rules better don’t always work with some types of players.

    Most of the time the best way to help new players is to talk to them and teach them the game the best you can and engage them in a friendly way to help them understand. But if you have an idea of how to make something like what you said possible then you are more than welcome to work on it and post it for the community to help out, the rules we have now were something I was working on before I was even admin so it is possible to get it out there.

    TTT will always have new players that don't understand the rules, PERIOD.

    Whether its a document or a video, the player will have to WANT to understand the rules. A tutorial video isn't the solution - To be honest, there is no solution. You just need to understand that this is a role play server. There will always be issues because the game cant make a player abide by the rules. We will always have people that break the rules for whatever reason they justify to themselves, we will always have new players and we will never have a server that has its problems. The sooner you come to terms with this and can brush an RDM off your shoulder, the more enjoyment you will get out of the game.

    ive bothered to read the rules once in my 1 year stay here. what makes you think a new player is going to bother watching a video about it?

    I agree with gebus and partly with jenny. If it wasn't for being banned to oblivion. I too probably would have read the rules only once, but now that I understand them enough I don't bother with reading the updates. Sound bad, I know, but most of the players know me on the server and they'll tell me if I'm doing something wrong by the new rules.

    There's a LOT in the rules and no one wants to read that much. Loads of people would prefer to watch a youtube tutorial on changing a tyre instead of reading the instructions. I think that a video tutorial will help alot for anyone who think that it'll be easy to pick up the rules without being banned. after all the admins will help out if I don't know something, right? wrong for one reason only. mic spam. some people don't even know that they're being spoken to, or even they can but the admin is pissy about having to talk over everyone and they deal tough consequences. Also no one likes being told to slay for something they didn't know they did wrong. for all they know they're just being trolled into slaying. why don't they know? because they're too lazy to read the rules. how can we fix this? two answers.

    A. We don't fix it, there's nothing wrong with it. Idiots can read the rules like everyone else. If they don't then they're jerks.

    B. We give them a video tutorial and make it easy for them to understand the rules.

    Also just the nature of the game is shoot shoot shoot. Most people are in that mindset when they first join and they haven't even heard of TTT. When I first joined the rules looked like spam or just a freaking pop up ad to raise money for the server. Made the place look tacky in my opinion. Or even one of my first thoughts was a sappy few things about the server to try and get more people to donate. Even though it says rules at the top, I didn't see that. All I saw was bright colours and a couple ♥♥♥♥ing paragraphs of crap I most certainly didn't want to read. I wanted to play the dam game, so screw reading that.

    A video right in your face without stuff that's kinda hard to read like thin red letters on a black background would be a bit better. The start of the video it says these are the rules of the server. no reading, someone is actually saying that so people can hear it instead of read it. Then at the end it says something like it's advised that you read the complete rules otherwise you'll probably get told to slay a lot. The complete rules should be on your screen below this video.

    Edit: The crazy colours you use on the current rules just hurt your eyes. I see why you use those colours, but maybe make them a bit thicker with a different font or larger letters? The eye strain is real.

    I didn't read the rules until I got admin, I couldn't be bothered to read it, I just learned along the way. Honestly a video would be easier to understand the rules. You are saying 'we' should add a video, are you going to make it? Because the admins are volunteers and it would take alot of personal time to make it.

    Maybe some of us could sort it out when the server is empty. If so then plz don't check logs/demos haha. There may be some rdm's haha.

    I'd be happy to do some of it with gebus if he's up to it, seeing as its his idea and I'm supporting it. How about you boarding? It'd probs take 3 people playing to get enough footage for an effective video.

    Edit: My movie making skills are poor so someone who knows how to edit videos would need to be a part of it.
    Also Admins. If we send the finished product to you guys are you happy to slap it on the welcoming screen for any new players to see? I'm imagining something that auto plays with the first words being "These are the basic rules of this server" so whoever hears it knows whats up.

    im willing to participate in the filming process. defs would need help from media savy players to edit clips into a video. would be cool if we hijack the ttt server to film, but that would be hard because we need to find a time when the server is literally dead, so like lateeee at night, or we can improvise on a private server without the ttt plugins and stuffs.

    edit: if we improvise on non ttt server, editting would require adding D above certain players, changing colours of bodies and shit, if any1 on dtk is capable of that kinda editting pls make urself known
