Server Rules Options

[Oatmeal]

I was playing on someone elses server the other day. They said that hundreds of servers have this same rule. While I don't play on hundreds of servers, I have played on MOB's for a while and I would consider your servers to be a defacto standard on how servers should be run.

The rule was, no spectacting allowed, except by clan members.

Now I could see this being a problem if someone was constantly going into spectate mode after being killed to find out where the other player is. To me that is not good conduct. But there are times when you go into spectate mode to answer a phone, answer the door or run to the restroom before the map is finished.

Another reason is taking a time out from a map and watching how other good players play. In the past I've followed some great players, SVTCobra, Nixon, Little Old Man to name a few.

Is it considered unsportsman like to do this?

Thank you for any feedback.
