  • Is it okay to camp at enemy base when you are in an unevenly matched game that is in your favor? (At least 6-2) I have seen this quite a bit, two players camp at enemy base while 4 or more carry bombs.
  • asking to team kill in a game with 0 opposition? I have run into this a lot recently, no enemy so somebody team kills another because they are too impatient to go get another bomb.

    I just want to know if y'all think this is considered bad sportsmanship/game ruining.

    I think camping is poor form. Especially when it's high ranks against less skilled players, or when you have the odds in your favor.

    Just because you let them just leave the ground (an inch under their wheels) doesn't make it ok. Drop your bomb and leave, sometimes I get back and rearm while I see the kills clock up for one or two players that just keep killing until they get shot down. I usually try to swap teams at that point.

    To both, these reflect unsportsmanlike conduct, but not bannable IMHO. If anything, the really unfair behavior is the lopsided splits by the server...and we can't punish those...

    The first case, common and yes, slimy, asks mods to split hairs as to what is or is not illegal camping...an issue we all know is wildly debateable. This is like the debate over bomb dumpers...positions are all over the place.

    As to the second, how can you police this? All they have to do is nose in and they've got a quick ticket back for a new bomb. Either way, they're taking a "crash" just for an unfair advantage. If scrounging a few points is that big a deal to them, their issues go far beyond gaming a digital environment. Hopefully, thay can learn that reputation does count..in life and in this game. Play like a shite and folks will treat you that way...This would include tanking in 6-0 BTC games...c'mon, take the bombing practice or quit the game. I have seen too many of these that reds will finally appear, but there is little point after some tanker has plinked off 90%... Save it for a competetive game... Again, IMHO. B)

    This may be a snooty reply, and Jacob, I have much love and respect for you, but......

    When are the Black Eagles going to make spawnkilling and spawn camping from the air illegal in their squad?

    I know some Eagles play with honor, but it's time for the others to catch up with the times.

    Whose, I agree with you. However, Enzo and the leadership have made spawnkilling illegal in the squad. I think there might not be as much enforcement but I have read their announcement for a couple of months ago which I think you and I whose is a major step in the right direction. Maybe whose a PM to Enzo and/or Tony69 would be the best way to help them in their "change"? Whose...

    Manfred? yes....he is one that I think we all need to see "reform".

    Enzo camped on me and SKed me in a 6 vs 2 just a few days ago. Flew all the way to my base with no bomb in a 6 vs 2. Camped and shot me twice off the run way. Pissed me off enough that I wont play with enzo any more for a long while possibly ever. If i do it will be to camp and kill him. I would not have done it to him. I called him on it and left the game. If you want it that bad you can have it. Guess he didn't get the memo. The Vampire was sitting at my base in a 7 vs 1 CTC in a tank last night. SKed me twice before he parked his tank so close and in front of me that I blew us both up with a bomb. His own team were on the way to kill him. Guess he didn't get the memo either. Yes poor form to camp even worse to tank SK in any game, at any time, on any one. Rank doesn't matter.

    I know you think youve made some sort of breakthrough with the Eagles, Swop, but you havent. Read page one of their thread. The only thing they prohibited in their reformation was tank spawnkilling, which is already bannable/illegal. So whooptie-doo.

    And yes, EAS is a squad officer and one of the worst offenders.

    So I wont be PM ing anyone about it, Im just going to keep on doing what I do which is playing by Black Eagle rules when I'm looking at one parked on the runway.

    Why not, it's "cover for my team." (Enzo)
