Minecraft 1.9 Sprint

[Lebron12]

With Mojang taking advice from the community, I think all of us, within this community, need to propose to allow for server developers to disable auto-sprint (single key sprint), reverting Minecraft to forced double tap. I believe that if this is achievable, it will bring a far larger skill set back into the game, rather than holding down your sprint key and hoping your ping wins you a fight.

I also think that this will possibly bring back old members and veterans who quit BASED off lack of skill and diversity in Pvp, as it will once again provide a challenge.
MCSG and other PvP gamemodes have turned into the game of "Whoever has better ping, and can strike first wins." By eliminating sprint, people will need new strategies and think about how they fight, as a fight could be turned on its head, because sprint is cut on each strike, which is why people complain about ping.
Because sprinting is never disabled as long as the button is held down.

This may be the most preposterous idea, and may stun, or confuse people, but I believe this is possibly a remedy to the hate and flame this server has received over the various things I stated before.
I also have many other crazy ideas in my head, but for now, discuss and share this with as many people passionate out Minecraft PvPers as you can.

Any support is appreciated, however constructive criticism is also welcomed.

EDIT: I have already posted this to reddit.

My keyboard doesn't want the double tap again.

Well, either going back to 1.7 mechanics or double tap are the 2 most viable options. I know a lot of people want 1.7 back.

Ye, honestly I think it would take me way to long to learn to double tap again.

Yeah, I know, but the server will return to be only 1.7.
Also, you can use the double tap everytime you want, but remember that with it you won't be able to get combos/strafes easily.

Which is nearly purely ping based.... The reason people complain.

I letting my self call me a old school player, I played mcsg since 1.4.5,
The skill needed back then, was 3x higher than now.
I love your idea, and I would most likely to come back to play MCSG if it happends.
I know theres nothing to do about this issue doe - the lobby.
It used to be so much better when you could just say your friend join 5, 13, 189 and random numbers from 1 - 200, pure epicness, what ever, your idea is great.

I think we all know people will complain no matter what.

As soon as I saw bring back double tap, I liked it. Yes please, I still do double tap on occasion because it's more comfortable. One problem that will arise is we'll now have to figure out who's using BSM/Sprint Hacks again...

I'll just say I can't go back to double tapping to sprint....

I liked double tap to sprint (after I got used to it, lol), and I suppose I kind of prefer it now. Although I don't think Mojang would do that, because to be honest, I think very few overall want double tap back.
