Rant and Rave

This is going to serve as a general venting session rather than a complaining one. It is not directed toward any particular individual. After playing on this server for a little while now, a few things have been irking the shit out of me. πŸ‘Ώ First off, peoples interpretation of the sever rules varies as should be expected. However, sometimes people need to learn to think with a little more common sense. For example:

1: Is it really a revenge kill if somehow I spawn near where someone had killed me at close quarters FIVE minutes prior and I notice and kill them? How am I to know that person was not killed and moved elsewhere? Sorry, I'm NOT going to turn my back and attempt to move to another location and let you shoot me in the back of the neck.

2: Spawn Killing. Yeah, it's freakin' annoying when it happens to you. But sometimes at long distances and you're not zoomed completley with your scope, you cannot tell if that person had just spawned/still spawning..whatever. Or if I'm on top of a building moving and dominating all four corners of it and I'm scanning the entire area and see you..I WILL shoot you. I'm not going to stop and ask "Hey buddy, did you just spawn, cause if so i won't shoot you". I play on instinct, stealth, and speed as much as possible. Accidents happen.

3: Another note on revenge killing. If I've never played the map, and I accidently revenge you. It's probably because I'm lost and have no idea what portal will take me where, or if I ended up back where you are. Once again..accidents happen.

I never intentionally set out to assualt known positions, spawn kill you (unless your a bot :-), or revenge kill you. If I do, sorry. I let 99 percent of the garbage slide that happens to me without saying a word. Shit happens. But if it happens more than five times in a map..I get a little upset.

But like we say in the Army..sometimes you gotta learn to "Suck that shit up!, and stop crying!" :redflipoff:

See you on the server.

1: No, not if that much time has passed.

2: The spawn time is to be used for getting to cover. After that, fair game.

However, if a spawner runs into your position, he should immediately leave and the player occupying that postion should let him. The spawner should not leave and then double back for a kill. Go find your own spot. No one should ever chase a spawner down for an easy kill either. That tends to put me in a kicking mood.

3: I wouldn't worry about it.

Thanks for the response. Just getting that off my chest here instead of attempting to make someone suffer verbal abuse on the server.

If someone is still spawning when you shoot them you will here a noise that lets you know. At that time you can stop or the spawn protection will kill you, your choice πŸ˜† .

I think it gives you 3 or 4 shots before it kills you, forgotten exactly. You remember Cyg ?
