Cubecraft forums is a bit flaky for whether or not Camping is banable. Ive been looking at some of the searches and i cant seem to find a definitive answer. Is camping banable? Is there an amount of time that a person or group of individuals are stationary for it to be classed as camping? If so how long? Is it banable on all game types? What is classed as camping? (just getting gear or covering the egg, or do you have to be literally putting up defences or building up really high?
If camping is banable i strongly go against it, you should not be banned. I personally dont like comparing servers, but the real solution is what Hypixel does, When it gets past a certain time the ender dragon is released (im not saying cube should copy this, but consider it as a plausible idea).
One of the main causes of camping is becuase of OP modes, the threat of being knocked of by punch 3 bows or people having effic 8 pickaxes is scarey, making people camp.
Personally, making camping banable is a really bad idea, because if a team is camping and you defeat them (that ive done many times before), it just makes the win feel even better. As long as you have good tactics (building safety bridges (only the sides and bottom) you can and will get to places in no time. If you keep getting shot, put blocks in front of you so you dont get hit past them. Make Skybridges or extremely low bridges so the campers cant see you.
A really good suggestion is that there should be a vote during the game (which anyone can carry out, not only ranked people). The map could start to degrade but only if the vote gets 50% or more as the result. So e.g a command could be /start vote, and then people can do /vote yes or no on if the map should start to degrade to stop campers.
As that idea would not work for eggwars, maybe there could be a vote to stop the generators from working?!?, then the campers cannot do anything and could run out of arrows and would therefore have to fight.
These ideas should be developed, and i seriously think that camping should not be banable, and if it is can i please have some info about it (by a staff member so i know its true).
Thanks a lot, James Lawrence (ThatGrimCreeper)
