    Re: New word needed for "campers"

    patroling is fine, aslong your patroling a decent size area, but if your camping the flag (CTF) your soft, and cant play the game  sell your game and play care bears great adventure

    Re: New word needed for "campers"

    You saying it's camping doesn't mean it's camping, it just means the rest of the gaming community disagrees with your definition of camping. Do a search for the definition on the internet and see for yourself.

    'a player will obtain a STATIC strategic position of advantage.' Wiki

    'a player hides in a SINGLE location.' Wiki

    'place themselves in a strategic position and wait MOTIONLESS for an extended period of time until someone enters their field of vision.' Urban dictionary' most favorable definition, but all the others have the term 'one position'

    'a player who sits in ONE place and waits for someone to walk infront of them.' The online slang dictionary

    What, no counter argument, just insults.

     

    If you are saying only Pro-gamers can define terms, I disagree, however: 'Camping - staying in one spot for more than 1 minute.' majorleaguegaming.com

    IMO camping is sitting in a corner waiting for something and not moving until you get a kill and then either move to another corner and wait or stay in the same one. Patrolling is when you stay in an area and look out for enemies. An example would be domination on interchange...you cap C and B and kill whoever comes out of A but never go under the bridge or get too close. you patrol the 3 entrances and make sure no one gets out to cap a flag. That's just my opinion.

    I'm not trying to tell people how to play it's distinguishing the difference between camping (a valid game play style) and that of sitting waiting in a corner for people to walk passed and NEVER moving then once killed going back there. It's not camping is my point and needs a new word, I quite liked "YAD" the rubbish you put in the corner.

       See thats just the thing ....... lets look at the reasoning here.  I guess if you are talking about a teammate sitting in some random corner and not getting any kills, that would be one issue.

        But the complaints are usually because of enemies camping and the cowardess of such a tactic. Now if there is an enemy sitting in some out of the way random corner and kills you then the question would be what are you doing wandering around some random out of the way place on the map. ........ Are you trying to avoid the enemy.

     

        Then there is this suggestion that a guy "patrolling" an area could be somewhat brave when a guy who refuses to move and goes back to the same spot is cowardly. Well thats a bit bassackwards.

     

       A guy running, or a guy patrolling, hits and moves ....... follow me now. He kills and runs away from the spot where the enemy last knew he was.

        While on the other hand, the guy who stays put knows that the enemy knows where he is.  Yet he risks staying there. With each kill he is risking more because now surely the enemy learns a little more about him on each return.Also for every kill, he is likely to have more enemies knowing more about him.

     

     

       It makes me laugh sometimes the irony in this community. A guy who kills and runs away is brave while a guy who kills and then stands his ground is a coward.   lol .........
