Distance Orders

I know that there are no distance rules on the jailbreak server but today I was playing and a ct was telling a t to "get back" but then other ts were yelling that there were no distance orders on the server and that the "get back" order was a distance order

So your question is whether or not "get back" is a distance order?

Yes it is.

That is correct. "Get Back" is not an order. Instead, if a CT got themselves into a stupid situation where the T can swarm them, they need to use the order "All T's freeze" or just order the T to go elsewhere away from them.

As they have said.

Get back is not an order due to its lack of actaully having directions.

The ct needs to say freeze.

Before you ask, yes you can shoot them a warning shot if they jump, crouch. Freelooking is allowed.

Thats about it

I'm not saying I agree with "get back" being an order but I'm pretty completely sure caution gave an order strikingly similar to that and said it wasn't a distance order. @Caution correct me if I'm wrong xd

Caution and Xeno(not sure) state that "get back" is legit and i remember one of them saying "it's pretty stupid that i can't tell someone to get back". Then again, as far as i know it's not allowed since it is also a distance order.

in my opinion, "Get Back" order sound more reasonable that "go away from me" but it is extremely hard for me to handle the situation when CT said "get back" then spray everyone down and T saying he is baiting.

The most common situation with this in PB right now (unlike in the old times where bubblez(who state he knows everything)plays), is one CT give freeday no X, then some CT would go to some where where was not restricted, somewhere such as disco and say "get back" when they coming in the DJ booth. This is yet another gray area that i usually encounter when they say "get back"

I'll usually say 'stop' or 'stop following me'. Stop usually does the trick.

To avoid confusion, I would say "freeze" if the T's are coming too close to you. That way you have a chance to get to safety and anyone who keeps on walking can be shot without any gray area whatsoever.

BW, if DJ booth is restricted and the T's come close to it, you can just tell them to go back to the dance floor and that eliminates the same gray area.

Sounds like the guards just aren't being specific enough which creates confusion.

I would like to remind everyone that @Wawa and @Nuclear Onion are the people controlling this specific server and deciding the rules.

'Get back' has been classed as a distance order for quite some time now and as a few others have previously said we do not allow it.

BW, if DJ booth is restricted and the T's come close to it, you can just tell them to go back to the dance floor and that eliminates the same gray area.

it is not me who was the Ct but dumb CT who keep go there or play somewhere else instead of helping team. I usually teleport them to the area if they do it
