    This is a post about a thing a couple of players have been doing and that is making a skin that imitates a class they're not. The skins that look like they have all (or part) Gold, Diamond, Iron, Chain, or Leather armor on.
    The most recent player I could find was Snowbreak and here are some screenshots of what I mean.

    Medic Imitation


    Assassin Imitation

    Snowbreak as Assassin

    In the last image you can see how confusing it is to distinguish the classes. There are the arguments that it doesn't matter (different TP's, you can tell the difference by the sword, Just [Action to counter known class here] when you see the person's name etc...), but when your in a heated situation you can't always notice those things. You just take one look at his skin and assume they're a class by their armor than find out they're assassin or ninja because you got killed. Now this isn't really a top priority subject that HAS to be acknowledged and to be acted swiftly upon. I just made a forum post about this to know the opinions of others and whether or not it should be banned (whether its a rule or not I didn't check. Which really, if you think about it, ruins the whole purpose of this post if it is).

    I didn't know we came to a point where people can't have a little fun.

    If you actually played CTF you'd know that the armor and stuff is toggleable, which means I can turn it off and on. Most of the time I have it turned off, however I turned on the armor late at night to mess with people for a few minutes, and did things like "hey, what class am I" in chat, "incorrect," and this happens. Also, I play soldier and other offensive classes most of the time on the server, and rarely play defense/assassin, so the its even more irrelevant than when I turn it off. The third picture I was AFK, and you decided to target me because I was messing around. Honestly, I thought people had better things to do then complain and create a thread asking for a rule against SKINS of all things on a kids block game.

    IK you were playing around as you were also joking. However, the reason I made this thread was not to complain but to hear an opinion onto the members of the community should it be against the rules as it does give you an advantage over players. You were playing mostly defensive/recov assassin (Maybe ninja? Don't recall) when you had the skin on. The 4 kills I made upon you, in succession, was to get rid of the ninjas and assassins that were guarding the flagroom. The last kill I made on you as you came out of spawn was to look make it look like I was targeting you to see how you reacted which, I can say, was childish of me.

    This reminds me of that Heavy-Assassin video that @Colonel_Graff made. I can't seem to find it though. :frowning:

    I'm pretty sure Graff made the video, but I might be wrong.

    Graff was the heavy-ssassin

    Also, I don't really find an issue with this
    (I sincerely doubt brawl would ban people imitating armor on skins)

    Frankly I don't really have a problem with this,

    But I can't tell you how many times I have called out @Snowbreak 's team (in a match) for have a double assassin, and therefore making a fool of myself and you think I would learn, yet I do it every single time....

    I have never had this problem mainly because my texture packs have different armor. 256x armor is much different than 16x.

    I can paint myself black and act like the stereotypical African American (I have no idea what that is btw), but I still won't be African American.

    I'm not making a point, I just wish I could jump higher.

    Rest assured, we of TBF have made sure that Snowbreak will be standing in the corner for at least 20 minutes today.
