FYI, there always has been a 'no class switching' rule but every admin on the site (including me) have been extremely lenient on it. This was to the point where it was practically never enforced. The rule is being enforced much more heavily now due to some pugs lately being complete blow outs from people changing to their main classes. Please do not switch off the class you were picked on.

I 100% agree that there are certain cases in which this is totally unfair like if a high invite scout is added to an offclass they're not as good at and then swap in game with a solly main picked on scout for example, then the game is totally changed and it's unfair cause the other captain can't have the option to pick them either.
However, I think there are also lots of cases in which this is not a big deal at all. For example, if I and someone else are both added on pocket and roamer, and in the pug we decide to switch because one of us prefers pocketing on a certain map or is feeling like roaming, I see no problem in doing this. Given that it's a pug site and its primary focus is fun I think people should be able to swap if they want to but only in cases where it is super obviously an upgrade or makes things unfair that people should be punished. The problem with enforcing this is that it's all sort of subjective to say that x player is a certain level at one class vs another, and I very much do not believe it should be banned altogether. I could be fine with it I guess as long as like the cases of two soldiers swapping roles when they're both added to them, or a roamer/demo added person swapping with another roamer/demo added person cause it's perfectly fair within the picking.

perfectioncan u please unban me :(
You got banned for cheating which means you were banned for 1 year (yes, despite how obviously stupid you were being, you only got 1 year).
However you decided to keep making alt accounts to circumvent the ban, played with yoona and just started throwing slurs around in the mumble. If you think for any possible reason you should be unbanned, I would love to hear ANYTHING to justify why you were being this dumb.

[spoiler]SPOILER ALERT, YOU CAN'T[/spoiler]
can there please be a rule against people adding med and baiting the pug to start this shit is mad annoying
the only time there's any argument for it is if a pug just ended and you want to cue people to add up or something but even then its pretty dumb

meyybearodactylpocket or roamer is a role, not a class. regardless, this is an issue because of the john milter theory where u pick ur medic (mr popo) on scout and just switch with him. a specific pug where rocket got picked on scout and sandblast on medic comes to mind, doesn't that seem a little unfair?
John and I had to switch a couple times because he forgot he didn't have a crossbow. If someone is captain they can pick themselves on any class so what does it matter? You think the other team missed out on the mr popo medic x-factor?
We should ban captains from selecting their own class. That way they can't decide to pick themselves on their main class and throw off the balance of the pug. That's effectively what you're saying.

You can get a crossbow from the store for free, besides, how many times did he forget this?

yea obviously the captain can select themselves on multiple classes but it is a johnmilter classic to pick his good bud mr popo when he's only added on scout and then swap, whereas if the other captain picked him on scout he wouldn't lol
Yeah he doesn't want his good buddy to get fatkidded :<
Should be getting praised for being a true friend
I would say my scout play is equal to my medic play.
I'm cracking up that people think that my medic play is elite and the other captain is missing out. If that's not the case then why the tears?

ok then what about the difference between milter on medic and milter on scout, nobody cares about what you play nearly as much

He's the captain so he picks what class he wants to play. The other captain can't pick him. It really does boil down to whether the opposing captain wants me or not.
If the other captain picks me john is going to play scout on his team regardless. *In the event there are no other meds added he'd just kill the pug.
Its all pointless though. We've played 1 pug in the last 2.5 months but the legend lives on.

Can we not make it like TF2Pickup did where if its 11/12 with a med missing and you add on med trying to bait the pug it locks you into med anyway.
Makes baiting impossible

can the whitelist be updated so my very cool cosmetics will show up cos right now anything from the last like 4 cases doesnt get allowed :(
alright can we ban this kitchen spot valve obviously fucked up and re-added it even tho it got removed on the previous versions
shits gay as fuck
shits gay as fuck
how do u just accidentally remove a clipbrush that large jesus lol
u guys remember the "wait for the b4nny pug to start" pugs, those were the days
not sure if this was said before, but if there are multiple people applying for a sub spot, the captain should be able to pick who gets the sub rather than it being random or whatever hidden elo thing it's based off of
An update about the snakewater spot in kitchen:
don't use it
if you see anyone using it please tell them that it is now considered an offense
if they do not comply then please report it, if you don't and there's no admin around then do not be upset if no action is taken
thank you

killing for your friends during picking should warrant a much more severe consequence imo. it wastes so much time and prevents more pugs from being played on any given night. ive seen 5 kills in a row preventing people from playing for an hour before and nothing was done about it.
we had the following mechanism for tf2pickup:
last person who added was automatically set to ready, since he was the one triggering the ready phase.
I guess its a bit more complicated with a non-restricted queue for roles, but as the problem only seems to happen with medics, just make an exception there and set the last added medic to ready if he triggered the start of the pug by adding.
