    A last the server lag has come to a end, kind off.
    Lag hasn't been as frequent but certainly still throwing players off.
    Now, to the complaining part of this post.
    I was full iron at Gas Station, running around with my MP5 and suddenly multiple full irons came around the corner of a building. Since I had no compass, I had no idea anyone was close to me. I ran to one of the small apartment buildings where I attempted to snipe them with my SR9. I failed. After close to 3-4 mins of barbwire placing and shots being fired on both sides, a unlucky kid gets bored and rushes me. I barb under him and sprayed him with MP5. He died but his stuff was not close enough for me to grab. Another 2 mins went by when two other full irons rushed me. Then, the lag happened. The WarZ god saved me somehow. Everyone stood still the lag stopping all activity. I knew this was my chance I ran out of the building, looked behind me and shot at the two iron guys behind me no bullets came out, but they died. The lag then stopped.
    They proceeded to call hacks and claim they recorded "the whole thing" .
    After exchanges of profanity and accusations, they left the server.
    Is this allowed? To abuse lag spikes as I did, and I am not proud of it but can I be banned for this?
    Since the server lagged at a vital moment can a player the action as to eliminate threats? Abusing server lag is something I am not proud of but I do not want to be banned for this offense. If this video of me "Lag killing" is released will I only have a warning?

    This is just my opinion, but I think you didn't break any rules here. I mean, if they're lagging and you're not, go for it! As Chickenputty once said: 'Sucks to suck.'

    This is not bannable. If it was, I should be banned ten times over. It's their lag, and you're using it wisely, and so it's totally fair. Also, they presumably had lag as well, so you were just batter at using it.

    To be honest, double-rooter with 5G and good, fast internet makes a ton of advantage for me. I abuse lag, but not like that. I play on distant servers, just kill few MVPs while it is lagging, or I just run away. It can get annoying if you are standing on a slab though.

    Yes, the servers don't lag constantly like they did a few days ago, now they lag at different times for each player. This causes the player to freeze. This happens very often to people I know, and myself.

    The fact that the lag is what have you an advantage is not a ban offence. You are not breaking any of the server rules and therefor cannot be punished.

    I think that the thread has been resolved and if you want to check any of the rules you can do so here.

    Thread resolved; locking.
