Fighting a dummy: em you rush towards the dummy you arms open wide The dummy wrestles away, one question HOW CAN A DUMMY WRESTLE AWAY.... dose that seem realistic to you... um yeah dosnt to me, and when you try to "bash" The dummy nimbly dodges your bash as you wobble then topple to the ground... what do you think Realistic or Not!

The code is stock phrases for battle. They COULD set up code to replace the phrases when fighting incapacitated victims (such as an unconscious snake or a sparring dummy) or they could spend that time working on something else. I'd rather they do the latter personally.

IMHO trying to subdue dummy is not much realistic itself. Why would you want to try it?

I'll have to agree with Morfeus.  Subduing the dummy, which doesn't move, is pushing the boundaries a bit.  In fact, most combat skills are probably best trained on people.

Most clans with sparring dummies have rules that state you aren't supposed to use them to practice things like bashing, archery, backstabbing, and subduing.

This is true, you should be using only combat on your practice dummy, no subdue, kick, backstab, atomic wedgie or anything. Just 'kill dummy' and emote as desired.

Kick on a dummy is perfectly acceptable.

I have read all kinds of opinions on this topic from players, but I can't remember a definative staff position being posted.

Backstab, subdue, sap, etc. do seem a little retarded on a dummy. :P

'Bash' is on the borderline if want to pretend you're a football player at practice.

'Kick' is perfectly acceptable, though, in my mind since.. well, if I can punch it, I can kick it too.

I was posted a proposal to use the dummies for archery practice aswell. Described it properly though, so it's not just a single person shooting arrows or throwing knives, but a whole training session, with roleplaying out the clearing of the room, and so on. The staff felt it was okey to do it, as long as it was massively roleplayed out beforehand like that. Ofcourse, sabduing is different :)
