Roofing in GuanoBots pub

[Theif of Time]

Yesterday got in a fight wth Jessus when he was trying to stop us (That is, me, Ganryu, MrDonut and Hotmail) From roofing. When we killed him, he macroed us with :%killer:NEWBIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
So MrDonut went of and dueled him apparently, also apparently was beaten 10-1. Which I don't believe for one second, by the way. Then, I got in an argument with him and terrier dueled him, 2-3 to him( I wonder why he dueled me less than MrDonut? Clearly MrDonut wasn't much of a challenge and I was too ez he didn't want to waste his time on me...). Although the duel was originally to five, he reduced it to three. Thinking back, I realise he did that to get an advantage. I had used my burst and my port, and so since he had just died, I had no burst OR port and he had both. Quite an advantage. So, I'm not sure how that duel would've gone if it had gone to five.
Then we got in an argument (See below) About Roofing vs Basing in the PurePub. Jessus's argument is that all roofing, except for maybe 1 jav, ruins PurePub.
Here's the log

P GuanoBot> This arena has pure pub settings enabled. Leviathans (Ship 4) are no longer allowed in this arena.
P (Jessus)>now, gtfo from roofin in pure pub
P (Jessus)>ty
P :Jessus:nah
P :Jessus:we've a right to it
P (Jessus)>ei muita
P :Jessus:roofing is really just no different from javving from mid base... except with a couple extra shots and more maneuvering space
P (Jessus)>just go to another pub, not pure base pub
P (Jessus)>there ppl actually tries to base
P (Jessus)>and roof campers ruins it
P :Jessusther pubs have levis, thats the point\
P (Jessus)>cuz u r in no surrender i suppose u know what basing is
P :Jessus:we're roofing on a priv freq... the only way it affects the basers is gives them more to dodge
P (Jessus)>no, it ruins PURE basing
P (Jessus)>sigh, im wasting my time to tryin to tell u it....
P :Jessus:unless there is a whole lot of us capping the arena limit
P (Jessus)god, u r newb...even u r in old base squad
P :Jessus:I only roof when I'm bored with base
P (Jessus)THEN U DECIDE TO RUIN IT FROM OTHERS TOO?
P :Jessus:new perspective and all that
P (Jessus)sigh
P :Jessus:its not ruining it!
P (Jessus)it is
P :Jessus:how?
P (Jessus)roof is used in pure basing only to get base, maybe with one jav, then he attachs to base
P :Jessus:by giving them more to avoid?
P (Jessus)not to camp there
P (Jessus)like i said, waste of time to tell this to newb like u who doesnt want to understand
P :Jessus:yes, but the one jav multiplys into two, then some wbs come along...
P (Jessus)go on, ruin other ppls fun since u cant have it urself
P (Jessus)like newbies does
P (Jessus)why do u think LEVIS are removed fomr pure base?
P :Jessus:I understand how it woudl affects a twbd
P (Jessus)make a wild guess
P (Jessus)they ruin basing?
P :Jessus:yes, they do
P (Jessus)so do camppers on roof
P :Jessus:I take it you're against sharkterring, bounty races, etc. too?
P (Jessus)CAMPPERS
P (Jessus)eh
P (Jessus)god man



My Conclusion: Roofers only ruin PurePub when they severely outnumber the basers (Like, a whole freq goes to roofing) and consequently only 1 freq vs a few ppl are basing. But a few casual roofers do not ruin it. We just give them more to dodge. Thoughts?

I say for pure basing also get rid of weasels and have a map that does not allow access to the roof, that way everyone lames in spawn area or fights for base.

I mean pure base if anything like ?go base then no levs or weasels.

Skimming through that unneccessarily long post I get the vibe, roofing = lame.
But what do you expect it will accomplish?
That's right. Fuck all.

[Da1andonly]

Useless Crap

[EliteAk]

wtf who cares??

why didnt you just do ?ignore jessus

[DoCk>]

Next time, start your post off with a point. Useless crap.

[ZeUs!!]

So thats why jessus buggered off to #zz when I was watching him for tking

[za gophar]

roofing is kind of lame.. i dont like people who do nothing but roof. a little roofing is ok.

hmm.... Not, such, a bad, idea....

Ridding ship 4, and 6, and not giving access to roof.... The thought of it!!
