I've a feeling this has already been suggested and had its flaws pointed out, but I have yet to see a thread about this. So, here goes:

I think that there should be a server or servers where it is impossible to team up with somebody. Whether it be you take damage when you're next to a person for a designated amount of time or taking damage after not hitting somebody next to you for a certain amount of time.

It would give a more fair and fun experience who don't have friends online who'd like to team. I know that alliances were a huge part in the Hunger Games series, but this would help give a unique experience and fun twist to the games.

Whether or not you decide to implement this, thanks for reading my suggestion. Post your thoughts and opinions below so I can see what kind of feedback other users give on this.

The way you suggested makes it impossible. People could play with each other but stand just outside the range, and then if you're chasing someone and you're close to him you will both take unnecessary damage. It makes no sense to me, and there will always be a way to team out there.

I see. Ignore my ideas, then. Can you guys / gals brainstorm any other, more plausible ideas regarding coding and cheating the system?

We aren't ignoring your idea, we are just saying : 1. It will be impossible to code the way you explained it, and 2. There will be a way around the No-Team filter (or whatever you call it).

Preventing teaming is honestly impossible, and if it was possible, would be incredibly difficult to code.
It's a good idea, but it really can't be worked out. If players were hit within a certain radius, we'd have no way to detect AimBot anymore, on top of the fact standing next to someone would basically kill them.
I love that you came up with an idea, and obviously put thought into it, but unfortunately, it isn't possible.

Hrm, the coding would definitely be an issue. Thanks for the responses, ya'll. Kinda sucks considering this would be an interesting way to play if there were a reasonable way to go about eliminating teams.

I love how people who don't know how to code say that it's hard to code.

How do you know it's easy? At one point, jefeperro who apparently knows something about code thought something would take 2 lines of code. And normally it would have. But then subv3rsion came, a developer, and said it would actually take 150 lines of code because of some weird Java thing. So how can you be so sure it will be easy?
