I haven't been involved in a crash in weeks, so this will have little effect on my server, I'm assuming.

But, there needs to be some kinda flag on players that die and release, b/c they shouldn't lose out on contribution b/c they were there, and then died, only to have their spot "stolen" by the players that only decide to show up at the last possible minute.

The under lvl 35 boot is fine though. They add little, and should stay (just) outside the fort and battle incoming forces.
