Community Vote: What if we were to add back exploding podiums?

[TerrabyteX]

I would love it, but for people that have a laggy connection it will be hard for them.

I don't like this idea. I don't like it at all...

Want to explain why? :/

Why? It's not like a few bursts of TNT is that much for it to handle.

Tnt - Not very laggy. You guys are overestimating it, I think. Especially since a lot of the podiums are over 10 blocks away from where you will be, so you wouldn't even receive all the effects of them.

What if the Tnt didn't kill you, just...
1. Made you start like 1/2 second later than others? Programmed so if you trigger it then the system releases you 1/2 second after it releases everyone else (Disadvantageous to those who trigger it, but won't kill them. More reasonable...?)
2. Took off a few hearts? Just as TNT is supposed to, it hurts you - gives you a few hearts less, so that again, it won't kill you, but will make you learn to avoid it.
3. Took off 1/2 heart or so every time you triggered it. Doesn't hurt you much, just teaches a small lesson. You could even take off the explosion effect and just have it as a simple damage thing.
EDIT:
4. Potion effects! Slowness, nausea, poison, or anything else that could provide a small effect for triggering the "Explodium"

I say no, everytime I die I lose 50+ points. And think, some people who can't get in the servers very easily may die of something as stupid as this and not be able to play that round. Dying like that would be a huge waste of time for players.

Here it is:

Nonononono! This is a terrible idea. At first I thought it was a permanent feature on April 1st and almost quit. Then, as someone said above, people will have a reason to get Better Sprint Mod which makes me even more furious. I recently (Sunday) was falsely accused of Better Sprint Mod and are banned for a week. Which after this more people will be FALSELY ACCUSED OF HACKING BECAUSE OF ONE STUPID FEATURE TO BRING PEOPLE TO THE WORLD OF HACKING. NO. JUST NO. QUIT. DON'T REPLY. THIS WILL NOT BRING GOOD THINGS! Sorry for my anger. I hate paying for something to be banned for a week for not doing anything wrong.

I would like to see it added but not how it was on April 1st. I disliked how it shot you up in the air it was annoying but funny watching people getting launched in the air like that. Maybe they could make so it is a insta kill but it gives you a 3 second warning before it blows up so you have a chance to not get blown to bits. So if you walk off it maybe this can come to your chat. STOP IT YOU HAVE 3 SECONDS, 2, 1, blown up! If you stop before it blows up and you start to do it again the count down starts where it last was. So you stopped at 2 seconds and you start again it repeats the message but goes 2, 1...... That is my opinion on this.

What if it disabled losing points through dying by Tnt?

Points are useless, they're just bragging rights...

The days of seeing baccas being flung into air may soon be back?

I approve.

Like a bacca in the sky.

Like wins on a server means anything either? I don't like it because it will potentially turn off new players. And most people don't have a forum account. They won't be able to see. If their is a warning, many people won't see it and complain here. I don't want more complain threads. It was fun, but I don't want it permanently.

Even if it did happen to new members, it'd only happen to them once and they would never make the same mistake again. And I'm pretty sure lots of the users have forum accounts, the forums are the first places they have to come to to find our servers.

I didn't have a forum account for like 8 months. And I still think the fact that that is there might make them say "This isn't fun, I get blown up." and never come back.
