Baserace: switching from panzer to light weapons and fair play - Beg1

[tj kill ya]

In the past, we asked players - including some who have since been banned - to avoid switching from panzer to light weapons in the spirit of fair play.
Recently, this has become increasingly common, particularly among staff members.

To me, this is similar to deliberately rushing a map without an anti-rush. Just because the server technically allows something does not automatically mean it is good for the game or the people playing it.

When someone raises the issue, the response is often “defend better” or “use it yourself.” Neither addresses the concern. If everyone has to adopt the same behaviour just to compete, we lose the gameplay that made the map enjoyable in the first place.

Staff should be setting the example. If we previously asked other players to show restraint, that same expectation should apply to staff, too.
 

Baserace is one of the most popular maps on the server, and we should protect its appeal. Could we agree on a clear, consistent position on switching from panzer to light weapons, and enforce it equally for everyone? If a technical restriction is needed, that should be considered as well.

I’m raising this because I want Baserace to remain enjoyable - not because I expect to win every fight.
