realBelloWaldi 1245 Posted April 19, 2016 (edited) Over the past few days, it has come to my attention that many people want to make sure demomen see the light of legality on blue. Therefore @kbraszzz and I came to the decision to create a poll to see the community's opinion about this matter. If the poll passes with at least 60% of the votes, demomen will be unrestricted from blu. This thread will be open for 5 days. Feel free to discuss this matter in this thread. Keep in mind: This decision will not be final, if the vote actually passes we will probably unrestrict demomen for a trial period of a week or so and see how it goes. :) Will be unstickied on Apr 24th. ~ Bello tagging jailbreak regulars: @Egossi @Goblins @BelloWaldi @mrnutty12 @Fiery8022 @Black_Dynamite @Matsi @PyroBunny @FenrirTheWolf @mrnutty12 @Avenger @Forest @kbraszzz @lik202 @KSPlayer1337 @Ohstopyou @The_Unlit_Torch @Caleb956 @MurphytheMedic @Duke Edited May 5, 2016 by Bello (see edit history) 1 Egossi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Egossi 1017 Posted April 19, 2016 (edited) It sure will change how a lotta things work (blues are gonna stickyspam for protection etc etc) but we can give it a try and see if it works or not. +1 for trial Edited April 19, 2016 by Guest (see edit history) 1 Thorax_ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Christian 3 Posted April 19, 2016 I sense that it can go wrong due to sticky spamming but it may add a little more fun to jb +1, why not give it a try 1 Thorax_ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bach 49 Posted April 19, 2016 -1 Theres a reason why this is banned. Its been tried a few times before. And when plug ins broke and we went into emergency rules, demo was accessible. It was hell. 2 Thorax_ and PyroBunny reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PyroBunny 4 Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) Theres a reason why this is banned. Its been tried a few times before. And when plug ins broke and we went into emergency rules, demo was accessible. It was hell. -1 from me as well. Its also the only class that cannot hit a single target without using melee (tl;dr demoman is an AOE class) [edit] Enabling demoman is just asking for freekills/mass freekills and giving staff more to deal with.

FenrirTheWolf 2 Posted April 20, 2016 -1 we don't need more demomemes in our life, and sticky area denial of things like armory/medic is unfair. Consider the very short time that buildings were allowed to be placed (dispensers that is) and how they were instantly used to block medic/armory despite multiple warnings that such a thing would (as it did) lead to buildings being rebanned. 2 PyroBunny and Thorax_ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thorax_ 539 Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) -1 bad idea in the making But being that if it DOES pass... I guess +1 to trial... Edited April 20, 2016 by TheSupremePatriot (see edit history) 1 realBelloWaldi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NitNat 239 Posted April 20, 2016 -1 though I actually kind of like the idea of being able to choose demo as blu...the end result will probably get ugly one way or another. Irresponsible people come and go and since Jb is a nutcase 90% of the time staff aren't on, things might wreck havoc 1 Thorax_ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goblins 580 Posted April 20, 2016 I was going to say no to this, but if we're trying it out for a week then sure. It's going to be a week of potential madness. +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArminArmout 129 Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) -1 at those times the middle/early of a some weekdays or really late (2-4 am) when staff aren't on, or just when the staff are offline in general the demoman weapons will get abused like stickies blocking medic and armory. Its also going to lead to a ton of free kills. Edited April 20, 2016 by Guest (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomahawk 156 Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) -1 for demoman buutt, +1 FOR DEMOKNIGHT mainly because sticky spam and grenade launch freekills (have you seen Demo lct? almost always wins) (forgot to tag me @BelloWaldi ;-; ) Edited April 20, 2016 by Guest (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhododendron 994 Posted April 20, 2016 We can always block offending weapons of the demoman :C 1 1 Egossi and Thorax_ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Egossi 1017 Posted April 20, 2016 -1 Theres a reason why this is banned. Its been tried a few times before. And when plug ins broke and we went into emergency rules, demo was accessible. It was hell. I guess I wasn't on when it's been tried before? But I don't see a problem with a lil trial tbh and about when plugins brake, imo it's surely isn't just demos that make it hell, it's added on with invis spies, bulding engis etc. etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
