Ohhhh... ah OK..

During my stay as one of the admins on the (now extinct, not because of me) KRB server (UT2004 Construction, a now extinct gametype) We used to kick people for Rule #7:NO excessive chuck norris worship.

Fun rule to enforce actually :twisted:

I miss UT2004 Construction =(

I actually kinda liked it too. Some people would go all out in making a palace. It was incredible.

Yeah it's this really wierd mod (and I'm not making this up I swear) where the map is basically emtpy space like a huge lot with a road down the middle. You select a square and make it your own space. The "link" gun is a builder gun that you select and summon a "block" or mesh with and then place it using the gun. Think HL2's gravity gun here. It's something like an online mapping tool. Anyhow the map never ends and the server never times out so what you make is there until the server is turned off. In it's heyday people spent days making these wonderful houses and towns, with some of it being really amazing. The downside was it couldn't be saved from server reset to server reset so a lot of the work was wasted.
There are no enemies or monsters or anything. It's strictly building and creating. In fact you'd get banned fast for shooting anyone. It was a very tightly policed group who liked what they were doing and loved to show it off, but God forbid you mess with it....

I hope that made sense. It was a bit bizarre for me too. More than a few times I've stood on an observasion platform with several others watching a person at work making something and thinking to myself "This engine and game could do so much more".

I found this on the PC Gamer website, and remembered Herm saying something about this video being 4 minutes you could never get back. And now all these years later, we get this twist to the story:
