Lagshot Event

[LukaZ]

Skinhit is the worst.
I could write a massive post/rant about why its the worst and bad for deathmatch but judging from the votes it doesn't matter what i say. The newer noobs(and zai) on this server just want the easy way to play even though its ruined by aimbotters and nonstop cheating accusations. Myself and other admins have to waste our time checking all these aimbot reports. Its annoying and its created a shit atmosphere ingame. All of it could easily be avoided with lagshot but people don't like change or a challenge.

I agree with Puberzz.

Like a player ,i play 2 years in lagshoot, ofcourse yes.

XD thanks for mentioning me lol

Anyway i wont turn this into a flamewar, everyone have their own opinion

[Kimochi]

agree bring lagshot back is the shit 

[Veyron]

the past lagshot weekend I noticed  so many players having fun (including me) so its  +1 for me

[Quickplay]

ugh again the debate lagshot vs skinhit 
i guess you know what i think about lagshot, after i wrote it in every topic about this same matter over and over, so i won't bother repeating myself...
in short i don't find funny shooting to thin air (neither newbies do, i suppose) so i vote for skinhit

edit: if this is something to turn on sometimes as an event like Enzo said though, nothing in contrary

Actually,this is the main idea.It's not a topic about turning server into Lagshot or Skinhit forever.It's about rather a event of Lagshot should be hosted every once in a month or so.And honestly,I don't see any major cons in that,since it will only be on for 12-24 hours.

So please,read the post thoroughly before posting and mostly before voting.(intended to all)

Many voted without actually understanding the real idea of what Jayce introduced. This was never about changing the server from skinhit to lagshot permanently ( though I wish ) It was just to add another event into the lists of events & that oldies+newbies can become participants and play together. This is not in favour of oldies or against newbies. Just an event !

Note : my opinion will be to add this event without using the poll system as this is not a major change and basically wont affect anyone playing in this server.  I love events & wish if there were 2 or more Aryans

yeah i might have sounded like i've mistaken this for a permanent suggestion, but i said that because i noticed that it was kinda turning once again in the same old debate.
Plus i don't like the idea to switch to lagshot every week as suggested (not once in a month), therefore i voted no, but if it's once in a while then it's already different

I will be the first one affected by it as I won't play the day it happens, and judging by the poll, which seems to be 50/50, half of the server will probably be affected and do just like I will.
I honestly don't see any reason to still argue about lagshot being applied to LWs, either as an event or for a short period of time, as many debates and old experiences have already proven that lagshot can only harm the server.

+1 for lagshot... thats the real sa-mp..

[Progaming]

seeing most of the active players are from asia, i have no interest of fighting in a lagshot server where i have to aim to san fierro to hit a 300 pinger...

Hey that offended me !

Anyways +1

I would try to develope lagshoot skills

-1 if it is applied EVERY weekend

[Jibin]

Even tho i could write a big post about why it should not be done in a server like LW, i'm not gonna waste my time. 
 But i just dont know why some admins are so lazy to check reports and ban when needed without making mistake, yo dude you choose this job you can always quit if  "Its annoying and it creates a shit atmosphere ingame" for you.
Yes people do like "changes or challenges", thats why SA-MP community decided to make "skinhit" 2 years ago instead of just going with same old shit.

To all who support lagshot and for maker of this Thread:- Im not against lagshot but unfortunately you have to admit the fact that, its played by the old generation and bringing something 2 years old will only make conflicts among our self (Even its for a week or for eternity)

-1
This is just my opinion as everyone have their own opinion(s)

[Aryan]

Personally, I'll leave it as it is. Everytime whenever someone took initiative of the change, and weeks later, people who supported the change are nowhere to be seen and I only find new people or regulars who don't browse forums complaining about the change. Half of the server was complaining when lagshot was switched just for 2 days. We discussed this thousands of time and every time outcome is NIL.

Whereas, I have to agree about pros of lagshot, but skinhit is way more adaptive for new people, who joined recently in 2016/15.

I'm not into skinshot or lagshot, I'll just go with the change where the majority of regulars want to.

Thanks Aryan, exactly my opinion! I will also add my touch :the newbies who never ever fight  and are fully endorsing lagshot please get the fuck out! I've said it when the previous poll was made and repeat it: you are not concerned, please do not ruin it for actual dmers...I am serious, it doesn't make you look cool so just mind your 24/7  free roaming.

As for Puberzz's argument which is the only one I ever see in favour of lagshot I'd say, the point is lagshot makes no fuckin sense. It is not a question of harder or easier, this is not skyrim. Why would you ever choose shooting air rather than actual characters? Habit? Well get over it, new players HERE aren't used to it and as far as I know there are more new players than old ones so it goes without saying which choice we should stick with.

Finally, the event excuse people have taken a liken to since they can't turn the server upside-down anymore is just plain stupid with all due respect. If it only took that to bring back old ''regulars'' then all servers would've stuck with legacy mode. The community is what, primarily matters not the lagshot/skinshot thing. People leave cause they have better things to worry about and cause they loose interest over time.

Another long-term way to look at it:FFS, for instance, is a lagshoot server with a community made up of a majority of players who started in 2015 (majority<--understatement old players there are at the most 7 but I obviously don't have exact statistics) and they like it and prefer it. On the other hand, compared to littlewhitey's, LVP has a lot more old players who still follow the community closely and even play on a time to time basis but I don't see them bitching about lagshoot every other month. Just today, I met a certain Stickman who started SA-MP in 06 (he told me some funny stories about littlewhiteys lol) and just came back a few days ago for the lulz, not once did he mention anything about lagshoot or, according to the mighty old players, ''how SA-MP degraded'' (bless him). He just kept on dying until he got the hang of fighting again.

Point being, there is absolutely no correlation (at the best a very weak effect) between lagshoot and bringing back old players. This theory is ridiculous and it has been proven PRACTICALLY. In some communities, old players stick around and in others they don't, that's just the way it is. Similarly, some communities prefer legacy mode while others like this one clearly don't. Get over it!!!

Anyways, I am certain back when Freak's experiment failed and DAMAGED OUR PLAYERS' COUNT (we used to, daily, get over 40 players before the experiment was made),the management then promised there would never be any mention of bringing back lagshoot to the server again. Do you guys enjoy the never-ending arguments on this matter cause I am starting to feel this kind of topics is becoming a pain in the ass. When did this ever become a regular turn on/turn off option?!!

majority voted no, lock this already
