Double Transitioning
-
Putting this here because I'm not really sure where else to put it. I've had multiple accounts of players double transitioning in PvP since coming to this server. I previously thought this to be frowned upon by the community as a whole. What are your guys opinions on this? Is this an official PvP rule and something that should NOT be happening? If so, maybe this needs a new post in PvP rules and a suggested read.

It can get your PC deleted if you do it.

Another reason why it's ideal to have a dm around when pvping, they can just pause the game drag you both on one side and smack the guy on the back of the hand for you if they do this.

um I double transitionall the time,but have never done it in pvp, it just _happens- to me- very annoying
-
Nah Dedagin, not what I mean. That happens to me sometimes too, especially in certain areas. I'm referring to players deliberately double transitioning in PvP to avoid losing.

But wait run through door to get away then back in the door?wouldnt this cause a Benny hill moment at least? Duh!

It's almost like abusing a bug.

I've had the double transition bug occur to me personally before. For some reason, it ALWAYS occurs if i'm chasing someone, though I've never had it if I'm running from someone. Personally, if this happened to me in a pvp unintentionally I would send the other player a tell 'Hey, i got double transitioned' and wait a moment for them to transition into the same area as me before resuming the chase/run away.
I would also highly suggest sending a tell right away in the DM channel if this happened to you in a pvp in which you are on the run.

I've found that sometimes when I come out of a transition if I use the wsad keys to move instead of clicking with the mouse, I'm still on the 'exit' transition and end up going back to where I came from.

There is no almost. It is abusing game mechanics to your advantage. This IS cheating. Cheating results in character deletions, vault wipes, and in extreme cases, bans.
Don't do this.

Because it can (and sometimes does) happen accidentally, is my post a good way of dealing with what to do if it does happen? I'm asking because it would be nice to have some DM clarification on what is the appropriate thing to do in that situation.
Likewise, another situation that does occur (though rarely) is when you transition and are jumped to the far side of the zone. What is the appropriate thing to do in that scenario?

DMs have given clarification on this.

Never double transition. Never. ever. Ever. Ever. Ever. Ever.
If you do it with spawns, you'll do it with PCs. Don't.
