General
The laming rule is one of the most common server rules in JKA but originally came from JK2. The rule is applied differently on each server due to how each server interperts the laming rule. Due to this discrepancy it is often wise to check the rules of the server before playing.
The Rule
Laming is attacking a player who is unarmed or chatting. Usually worded as "Laming is attacking a player with saber down or chat-bubble up."
Controversy
A lot of people believe that the laming rule is a bad one. Making JKA one of the few games with an FFA gametype in which you can not freely kill people, and that it discourages players from playing the actual game.
Others argue that the laming rule is enforced to help new people in the game and to enforce respect for other players and to allow for a more casual "Jedi-Chatroom" environment.
It could be argued that this rule has divided the player base.
History
The laming rule was coined and used first by Shroomduck of JK2.
