Remaking thread (Why isnt this bannable)
This isn't a strategy. What annoys me is you won't take the shit maps out because you can actually encounter that scenario, yet when on a factions server have you seen someone camp out your buffs. I haven't. No one likes fucking campers. Have a vote, ban able camping will probs win

Tl;dr aside from the first 2 sentences. Me and Gberry have fought campers in 2v2s previously. The first time we lost. After that we decided to bring a bow, and guess who won?

well no shit it's not bannable, that's what were trying to get. Also it's a strategy that ruins fun for all players they are up against, something that even if it's a legit strategy it should be bannable because it's making everyone else experience a lot worse.

Please ban this. I'm tired of getting my ELO anally raped by people why just shoot themselves with a bow and camp you. Maybe make it where after about 5 minutes the match ends and no ELO is gained, nor lost. But that could make people camp against players they know they don't have a chance against.
@Sukamakey, just because we're saying to stop something doesn't mean you should stoop to their level. Not cool.

I tried to do this, accidentally hit myself off a cliff, I didn't have feather-falling. Had 2 hearts, then my enemy killed me.

If you wait 10 minutes (I think), the match will end in a tie and no ELO will be gained/lost. I used to do this all the time with Jackshow, and he seemed to admire my patience lol.

Last season I got to the high 1900's on an alt using this technique to prove a point. It not only takes the fun out of the game, for the opponent and the person running off the buffs, but it also makes badlion look bad to new players. The only logical reason I can see people doing this is to either A) Piss off/lower the elo of specific opponents or B) Achieve a high elo themselves. You need to remember that people just joining badlion only have 10 ranked matches, and if even one of them was wasted due to a camper I wouldn't be interested in playing here any longer. It's a major turn off and shouldn't be allowed. People say "just bring a bow" but when your opponent is running away from you the whole fight, bowing them away doesn't help you, it just makes it harder. If you attempt to bow yourself it just damages your armor and leads to a faster demise. Also, if you consider it a "vanilla" ladder, it is meant to simulate vanilla pvp, that's why the emerald mine is still there. If that is the case, and you are 1v1ing someone in a vanilla pvp situation, no one would bring a bow to do damage, they would bring a bow to keep the opponent away, but if it is a 1v1 you are still there to fight. Running away shouldn't be an option, end of story.

After a night of brain storming, I have potentially thought of a way to stop camping in ranked. If plausible, my goal would be to check a player location every 5 or so seconds. If they remain near the same area (within 10 or so blocks - would need to be tested thoroughly) for 30-60 (also need to be balance tested) seconds, they are camping. They receive a warning, and have 10 seconds to get out of said area or they will lose the match automatically. People bypassing this (by like switching hills or trees) would be now able to be recorded and punished if they continue.

Thoughts?

Side Note: This wouldn't go live until next rating season as we don't like to change game rules mid season, which would give us ample time to test.
