People are quick to petition every single thing that happens. Sometimes its unwarranted, other times it has to do with simple errors of not seeing the person camping something, and very few are valid claims.

When petitions are received for camp stealing, the first thing we do is try to get the players to resolve the issue by themselves. If this is not likely, we step in and try our best to come up with the best / fairest solution for both parties. In a lot of cases, the actual petitioner is found to be at fault.

This right here....

Don't do it. You won't get banned for a first offense if you steal a camp, but training someone else will more then likely get you the proverbial boot in the arse.

If you have problems with a player that can not be resolved, then use petition and let us help. Don't try to resolve the issue with a train or killstealing, etc. As far as being petitioned by people when not deserving it, there is not much that can be done about it. petitioners gunna petition. Stick to the rules and all will turn out well.

I think its interpretations of the rules that cause a lot of the problems. That and people making up bullshit that worked for them once before to coerce someone off whatever they were camping:-

"Oh dude, you weren't sitting right on top of the spawn...so you weren't technically camping it and therefore its mine"

...that's a favourite of some people, look out for those comedians [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

just a good rule of thumb to never listen to anyone who starts quoting the rules, chances are theyre twisting it one way or another

^ is that Fred Durst

Also if I was a guide and someone kept bothering me with constant petitions about ridiculous/false claims I wouldn't take anything they said after that as serious. People overuse petitions way too much wasting peoples time.

Either petition and look like a noob, or be a man.
