    I feel like you only don't want this because camping is the only way you can win...

    Have you played me in game recently? I hunt... I personally hate campers. But I used to be one before I got kits. Do not assume anything about me, and do not start a flame war with me. That post was completely irrelevant to this suggestion.

    Camping is one of the only ~good~ strategies for non-kitters, and even as a kitter who hates campers, it needs to stay.

    I'm sorry but your argument is flawed. I will personally show you a few spots and if you can damage me I will give you literally everything I own. There are spots where you can simply not hit people and this is not fair. If some campers lose their untouchable spots (keep in mind you would still get there they would just to be OP) to balance out a serious problem, then so be it.

    I've stated there needs to be SOME form of entrance to all areas of SG. Otherwise one could afk until the deathmatch, violating rules ~kinda~.

    -1 Dumb Idea...
    Vines are meant to be broken for a reason.

    Well it you gave good suggestion feedback in a really positive and affirming way, plus you gave a nice counter argument that enlightened me fully. I think I'm about ready to lock this thread but I think I'll leave it open for others to see, thanks for really changing my views on things!

    Oh wait:




      • " Any action that disrupts the flow of SG matches will result in a kick from the game. This includes, but is not limited to:
        • Being afk in such a way that the game cannot end
        • Exploiting glitches in such a manner that it ruins the game for other players. "
    I could be wrong here, but I believe hiding in a place where you cannot be damaged from any possible way and preventing a game from ever ending unless the other player leaves and forfeits all their hard work might not be the "meaning" behind vines. Sure, to GET to the places yet but THAT was the intention, which is why unbreakable vines should be implemented.

    Yes. The rule is there for a reason. That does not mean that is the only purpose to vines being breakable. Removing the vines to the unapproachable areas and replacing them with ladders would both be much easier on whomever fixes these areas, but would also fix your issue. In the mean time you should just report those who abuse this?

    Why bother replacing with ladders or reporting people when you can make a simple, effective switch to making vines unbreakable.

    What happens if you're climbing the old mining spawn and say, ctool starts after you. Your hotbar is not organized, and it's ctool so you know that you're screwed. You hit the top, just before grace period ends, and you break the vine, saving your life and making him go up another route.

    There is one example. You want another?

    You can't even simply rearrange your inventory in that short amount of time....? o_O

    But anyways heres another:
    So it's you and OJ left in deathmatch, you spawn far away from him and have invis+speed! you quickly run to top nether! and hide in the zombie pigmen! breaking the vines of course. Now yay! You have stopped the game from ending unless someone leaves, just how SG is suppose to be played.

    There is one example. You want another?

    You literally cannot hit the people in certain spots as I've said, the pigmen for example can't be hit by splash potions or bows -____-

    Dont change anything, vines are a part of the game, we cant break most everything in SG anyways, if you dont like the time length of the match then you can leave.

    Camping is a legitimate strategy FTW

    I'm 100% with you on camping! I get that some people do that! but this is an issue with making games go on forever because you can't do damage to someone.
