THIS WEEK'S DEBATE!
What do you think of hibernating crew members in order to save their crew spot? Should this be a bannable offense?

I don't think it should be a bannable offense but I think that it should be coded so that when a crew drops to a banned player it is like it dropping to a dead player and passes it by.
-Saniyah

I think it is kind of a good strategy, but if more and more crews do this then how are crews supposed to get passed around and shot at like they are supposed..
-Wilderness

I think it a good tactic and I don't see why people see it otherwise.
-Carbo

No. Seeing as no one is actually with the crew boss to determine whether they actually went on a real vacation it should be allowed.
-Proselytism

Banning is a bit harsh, although it is breaking a rule..which should therefore be punished with a ban. But it can be difficult to tell if the player went on vacation specifically for that reason or if it is a genuine vacation. I think the best possible solution would be to simply pass the crew onto the next highest rank (or specified next-in-line person). Perm ban is definitely too harsh, but maybe temp ban for a few days
-Ortega

I think it is cowardly, if you own a crew spot you should know the risks of owning one and at no time should you run with your tail in between your legs...then again saying that it is a good strategy...but still overall I think it is unfair, if it happens the person that holds the crew spot that is in vacation should either be permanently banned and go to the second most experienced member in the crew or the crew should be dropped and if the owner has a problem they should consider not running a crew if they can't fight for it when they have to.
