Suggestion Type: Change to the Rules
What is getting changed?: Mazebase Rule
Where does this need to be changed?: Currently there is insufficient wording law. Enforcement of this rule is limited and has lead to an increase of unraidable fail-bases supported by admins with insufficient knowledge of the rules.
Why is this a good change?: Entryway Rules (ER) - [rules about the pathway into your base]
GER6. Maze Base Designs are Not Allowed (Bases with long pathways that use the time it takes to get from door to door as the main defense, refer to the Enforcement Guidelines)
Note that in rule "GER6." it is explicitly stated that bases with exceedingly long pathways are failbases, however there is no defined limit to size. Enforcement of this rule is therefore limited - especially in the case of admin bias (ie. an admin is pals with the base owner, or off duty and basing). What I'm hoping for is - during the next admin meeting - some consensus can be met as to clarify this rule and get rid of the unheeded nuance that plagues atomic city. I have attached an image of one such unraid-able base design.
This is not the first of it's type, and it won't be the last if action isn't taken. I have had admins tell me that designs like these are acceptable, despite my points. If bases like these continue to be viable raid culture will suffer and raiders will be annoyed. I apologize for the poor resolution, I will get more quality pictures if this isn't resolved.
I mean look at how ridiculous this base is. It's not raid-able by any standard. There are bases like this downtown that super admins live in. (I will not name, I do not explicitly remember their name)
