Remove kill XP for hiders who become seekers

Unfortunately this wouldn’t solve the ensweatification of hide and seek, as the seeker mains will still seek after they max. These are people who play the game for fun (or wins), not for levels. There are some other, more realistic, more effective solutions you can vote for: make the small maps bigger, add more block options to easy-to-seek maps, remove the seeker speed boost, make hiders invisible during the grace period, add more maps, add jumpsolid/dropsolid, etc etc.

The goal with any change shouldn’t be to de-incentivize the strongest way to play the game - right now that’s seeing in parties - but to make other ways of playing more fun (running, solo seeking, hiding). Map variants were an attempt to do that I think, but missed horribly if they were. Seekers are just learning the variants and nobody can run anymore so they win for free. Your best bet is not playing hns for a few weeks, waiting for people to max and stop playing, and hopefully the number of seekers will go down. Sorry bro, I don’t think hive will help with this one.
