Spawn killing Options

[GatlinGun]

I know that {MOB} has no rules concerning spawn killing but I think something should be considered to ease this rule just a little. I am an avid UO player and play on {MOB} servers daily and have for some time now. I have always enjoyed the game with many {MOB} members and visitors alike. It is always a good tactic to sneak behind enemy lines and take them out but my concern is the ones who sit in a tank and constantly kill every single spawning player. Today it irked me so much that I actually called the spawn killer a fag. Considering that I am the founder of my clan and in no way condone this sort of behavior, I appologize to the person I offended. But, mass spawn killing is considered cheating on most servers and is clearly a sign of lack of skill. Im talking the skill it takes to actually war in the field like a normal player would. We also allowed spawn killing on our UO server not so long ago. Our server population was extremely high and now it dropped to almost nobody due to the fact of allowing spawn killing. I have also seen this happen to a few other popular UO servers. Having a sniper take out the enemy is one thing but when you have 2 or 3 tanks taking out every single spawner is just, well, rediculous. Like I said, our server population fell 90% when we allowed spawn killing. Just something to think about. <>TE<>GatlinGun - Team TerminalEclipse.

There are several reasons, mine is probably different from most.
For me it's because it's part of MOB's history.
We started as a mohaa clan.
I couldn't begin to count how many servers our players ( not just MOB but people who lived on our servers )where either kicked or banned from do to spawnkilling. Which is fine, if thats the way those people ran their servers 100% of the time but it wasn't.
If the admin of the server spawnkilled someone, no big deal.
If the admin of the server was spawnkilled, than they would go on a rampage crying about how it's against their rules and kick or ban the player.
We did things different.

From your post
It is always a good tactic to sneak behind enemy lines and take them out but my concern is the ones who sit in a tank and constantly kill every single spawning player.
My 1st questions would why did the team allow a guy get in a position to do that.
In the end it all comes down to how you veiw the game.
The way I see it, You not only have to defend your bases but your spawn as well.


the most common complaint.
It doesn't take skill
Sorry... but have to disagree, I could try to do that a hundred times & fail every single time.
