Your name: [Lsrcr]Fantastic
Suggestion headline: Bringing back the anti dm / the auto disarm system back.
Importance of suggestion: 8/10
Why should it be accepted: Right. Since the anti dm system was removed, one cannot play without being drive-by deathmatched. Quite honestly, I don't see why you even removed it since in my eyes the system was very effective and really prevented the current on-going issue and a rise in DM.

Thanks.
Fantastic.

Yes you can't DM anyone with the chainsaw anymore but chainsaw DM was a minor issue anyway. That because you can easily escape from a chainsaw dmer, and you would mostly get dmed at the bank not every time and everywhere when it comes to drive-by dm. Drive-by DM is a huge issue, players will just follow you and DM you for no reason at all. I remember Onzie saying that you guys removed it mostly because people were whining of how you would get disarmed just because of dming someone, even by accident. But I got some questions:

- Have they stopped whining n complaining?
- If you make a poll asking people whether to bring anti DM system back or not, most will be positive on brining it back. So why not re-adding it?

Tldr; The pros of bringing it back are more than the cons.

In my opinion the removal of the anti-dm system (drive-by) was one of the worst decisions that have been made since I joined this community/server. There have been many additions to the server that made it a lot better, but this one isn't one of them for sure.

People have indeed, stopped whining and complaining about being disarmed as it doesn't happen anymore, but people will always find something to complain about, it's human nature.

Also, I personally do not like the idea of the auto-disarm feature as when you're with a team of wanteds and a player has lag or you lag shoot him, it disarms you anyways - was annoying as hell especially teaming with a large group of cops / criminals on the server.

How about re-adding the anti-dm system for non tagged players as tagged members should know better than to DM other players?

Brainstorming some ideas before we move ahead with the suggestion - Don't worry we do listen to what the community wants, but sometimes decisions have to be made for reasons that other people may not like.

Maybe I sounded like blaming you guys or something, but I was surely not. It's great that nowadays our suggestion are being taken into consideration, combined with the latest updates, we can't be more thankful.

On topic; You are right, it was indeed very annoying but I can say that now it's even worse. There's always a brainless, I would say careless dude who will just come in order to DM you, with no reason at all. At least such deathmatchers would get a lesson by getting disarmed in the past.

However, what you suggested is a very good idea. Never thought of it but it turns out being really useful.

+1 but IMO it would be more suitable if it disarms the drive-by weapon only (TEC-9,UZI or MP5) and not the whole weapon set
