GAME CHANGE: Admin jail - removal of hitlist. Started by: Squishy on Aug 05, '20 22:08

To avoid a future loophole, if you get sent to admin jail, any existing hits placed by you on the hitlist that are not anonymous will be removed.  Since you can not be killed while in admin jail, your hits should not be allowed to continue unless they are anonymous.

I find this strange. Sure someone could in theory place some large hit, then do something minor and get admin jailed, thereby protecting them from retribution, but surely as you have to pay for the hit up front, the money is held in a kind of escrow until the hit is completed? If this is the case, then the rule change doesn't make change unless all hits placed by the person, anonymous or otherwise, are removed?

When you place an anonymous hit, the killing of the poster doesnt remove the hit.

When you place a regular hit, the killing of the poster DOES remove the hit.  While in admin jail, no one can kill you, so that means you are enjoying the benefits of having a hit up on someone that tyler can take advantage of, while no one can touch you.  This takes advantage of a loophole in the game that we just closed.

In the case of nipples, the non-anonymous hit was placed by a user who was then sent to admin jail.  This means that nipples in any other situation would have just shot the poster and the hit would have come down since it was not anonymous.  Nipples was unable to do this because the poster was sent to admin jail.  Tyler then shot nipples in a situation that should not have happened because the poster would have been shot and the hit would have been removed had he not had protection in jail.

This game change means there is no protection offered by admin jail for a non-anonymou hit.

" , then the rule change doesn't make change unless all hits placed by the person, anonymous or otherwise, are removed? "

Anonymous hits are not tied to the poster.  The poster, live, dead, jailed, unjailed, sharks or jets... it doesnt matter.  No consequence after the money is paid to hitlist service changes things.

Named hits, *are* tied to the life of the poster.  If the poster dies, the hit goes away.  If the poster uses a mechanic that stops them from dying, the hit should be removed.  I do not believe this is a loophole that should be left open to exploit, so it has been closed so it can no longer be abused.

Some will 100% find a way to abuse this
Report Post Tip
How will they? Anon hits are unaffected. The way it was was extremely unfair when hit wasn't anon and you couldn't shot the person who added it due to admin jail and therefore remove the hit (by killing them)
