KOS off location or not?
#8
You shouldn't have been slain. That's dumb. There's a difference in between using common sense and KOSing purely off of a broad location, which anyone could be in.
People need to lump KOSes off of location alongside metagaming and KOSing off of player models and such. Understand WHY they're against the rules and the act accordingly. If you only take the rules like this at face value you'll be slain for stupid shit constantly.

forgive this incomprehensible rant but here's me trying to explain my thought pattern.

Metagaming is using something, such as player model, appearance, a general location, or another external case completely based on chance. That's why you can't kill off of it. Take a look at my gear equipped on the TTT server. I have the Duck Floaty and a Combine Mask. Both of which a normal player could not get, if you see me jumping around with a disguiser on you know it's me, right? Well, take for example an admin gets on and wants to completely replicate my appearance, or give someone the tools TO replicate what I look like, guest to a donor. Because there is a CHANCE, no matter how small it is, that is why you cannot KOS off of a player's model or accessories. We can translate this pretty easily over to the general location KOSes. If they fall under the category of ≠ 100% then it's a KOS off of location, which is metagaming. If it does = 100% as in the case of a one-way elevator that doesn't have any teleportation marks in it I'd say its a completely fair kill that was carried out through logic.

TL;DR
I wouldn't slay you if it was clear cut 100% no other way around it or about its logic, i.e. understanding numbers of t's (while factoring dc's) or this specific case.
