    Although i love the community pool map, it has just brought nothing but false slays every round. People camp below the ladder, and when people jump, they get killed because they just stood at the bottom. And they get killed by the other players, and then get slain for no reason, just like I.

    It's usually meant for ascending; not descending.

    Or don't go down. Simple as that.

    What I mean to say is all the mistakes with the freefall are easily avoidable.

    You can simply look down before you end someone's life.

    False slays....? That huge space in the map is going to cause problems due to goomba stomps. That is inevitable, but that doesn't mean that the staff member has false slayed by any means. Usually, if a player wants you to be slain for accidentally goomba stomping, then you can be slain for it. Simple as that.

    Well, it takes out the fun of having the map, i mean, when people are camping below the ladder just doing nothing , and then players are exploiting by placing shelves there, it kinda ruins the fun. And dont forget how poor the ladder physics are, you go down one, then you just tp off of it. know what i mean?

    just really think about how many times this has happened- people falling on barrels and shelves, and players just wanting somebody to be slain because they were camping the ladder there...

    CDriscoll Lemme advise you VIP Bronze

    Whenever I was staff, I would spectate and look over and make sure that people don't place props. Anybody can do that with simply a recording software and the will to do it. If it bothers you so much, you should have the initiative to do something about it. This map is a favorite to many. The only problem that I have with this map is how the rain particles make me lag, lol!

    I find this suggestion to be more whining than a legitimately reasonable request. The issues you bring up with this map are so petty that they can't really be used as a sufficient argument.

    Getting goomba-stomped on the ladder: I've never really had that issue. I take time to see if anyone's down there before I jump (which @Sinz mentioned).
    Camping down below: If people are camping in the basement/T-tester, that's OK UNLESS the majority of players are dead. If they're camping down there when only several people are left, PM them first and remind them of that rule, and if that doesn't work then I'd suggest alerting the mods. Also, I've never seen people camp right below the ladder so that they would be in a position to be goomba stomped.
    False Slays: OK I immediately ignored that statement. I'm pretty sure mods would have a good reason to slay someone and they'd probably be right (that, and that I see a lot of people complaining about false slays or admin abuse and they're almost always wrong). This also isn't a map-specific issue.

    BTW Nice double-post there.

    It would be nice to see something done to this map however,

    I always have to force-spectate the map to catch people whom are placing props or deliberately trying to get goomba stomped, Yes this is becoming a thing, i suggest other staff watch for it.

    Maybe @Books could possible make it into a teleporter or provide an alternate means of reaching the downstairs.

    That is a perfect idea. After i posted this suggestion, i did have a thought of alternative ways to reach the bottom part of the map.

    I'm looking into revamping Community Pool anyways, so I'll see what can be done about this.

    I dont agree on removing the map. Maybe a better method of getting up and down would help like using an elevator or stairs instead of a ladder.

    While there maybe mayhem in the map itself, just, I guess you have to be a more responsible player, following your logic, its the same for every map, just depends on who plays it, and how its played.
