There has been a lot of discussions about races: suggestions to implement measures to prevent Rustlers from ruining them, someone saying that races should be removed because they are not used, etc. This suggestion would fix those two problems very easily:
-A summary: Whenever there's a race and there are Rustlers flying around, an admin spawns a Hydra and chases the Rustlers. This way the Rustlers would still be able to shoot at the racers but they would have to watch out for the missiles.
Also, admins can spawn money to host their own races with high prices, so more people would join the races.
-The advantages of this happening: NO NEED TO SCRIPT ANYTHING, increased chances for the racers, more people joining the races, and Rustlers still being able to chase racers.
A solution that would satisfy both parts: racers and Rustler pilots.
-The disadvantages: There must be at least 2 admins: one to make this, and another to ban cheaters.
-Another option: If the only problem of this suggestion is that admins wouldn't want to fly a Hydra, then there's another solution: the Hydra is piloted by any other player, but of course the whole race set (racers, Rustlers, Hydra, road blockers etc.) would have to be in a parallel world and the Hydra kills not counted to the stats, to avoid the Hydra being abused. In case of doing it this way, the Hydra pilot might get a reward depending on how many racers reach the finish line.
This would require some scripting, but in return there would be no need of any admin playing in these races.

You seem to forget that you can't expect of admins to chase you, I can imagine they have other stuff to do or even don't wanna chase you. This is the most stupid suggestion you ever made this will never work.
-
Admins cba to chase rustlers with hydras lol! ;D
-
Lol gryphus your ideas stunning!! I agree ;D More fun to both sides yeah.
-
Good idea Gryphus_One i like it
-
I do not think an admin has time to sit online all day chasing who or what makes the race ... many abusers often taking advantage of the lack of admin [car bomb, shoot wheels, steals car] I'm happy is an online admin can kick these losers who abuse the start of the race when we are in crisis Beam So while I do not think you'll see something like the LW ... admin [hunter] of rustlers ... but idea is not bad :)
-
additional explosions added to the race will not be nice.
do i have to say more? ::)

If admins wouldn't want to do this, then... why make any suggestions at all? including the suggestions to remove Rustlers in races. They cba to implement them either... ::)

This just isn't a solution, admins have to be online in the first place, then fly a hydra which they might not want to do or they have better stuff to do, so they can chase YOU so YOU can try to destroy a race. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bothered by you hunting racers, but this is just retarded. You have a solution to a problem that YOU caused in the first place, it ends out to only you having all the fun.
-
Well masterbeef I just can't believe what you are saying, I might reply you with arguments but seriously this is so absurd that I prefer not to turn this into another argueing thread.
-
Calling something absurd without arguments is like smoking a joint without weed. You always seemed to me like a person who really puts his brains into things, but damn something went wrong since that new stats system you suggested and its getting worse, you're making simple things so complicated I'm starting to lose faith in you.

That's such a senseless, foolish, idiotic, stupid, asinine nonsense. :)
The Hydra thingy.

Amen.

You're absolutely right, there is no way anybody can argue with you. Congratulations. You introduced new problems that don't exist right now, nobody wants parallel worlds, nobody wants hydra's in main world, no admin is gonna give you special treatment so you can keep doing the only thing you like (and can). You actually wish some admin shoots at you with hydra so there's finally someone who plays with you, and they probably won't even hit you cause flying rustler is the only thing you can. This isn't about others joy, it's all about you. In fact you should suggest a totally new gamemode that's Gryphus One proof.
