I'm fairly new to the Halo PC Internet multiplayer. I have some questions about the experience.

1. Some folks keep using the word "Camping" and they seem absolutely livid about it. I think this has to do with Someone playing a defensive game (which I see as tactical and wise-especially in Team CTF), can someone confirm this assumption? I was actually kicked off a server last night for "Camping" along with other players defending our flag and we really had no idea what we had done wrong. Is there an actual rule against defense?

2. Is there any Halo based Forums or places where one can go looking for a Clan to join or to talk with team members before and after a CTF so that strategies can be made wihtout having to type one another in the midst of a battle?

My advice is to ignore them they just get mad cuz you can just sit back and wait for people to come to you instead of you going to them. If you were just defending in CTF i can't see the problem but some people take the game to seriously and get mad if they can't win.

Anyway i would like to play with you (not many team players around) so if you could let me no what servers you play in.

#1 campers are in every game. They're people who just hide and wait at their side. People like who wait in the base and wait till u come and get the flag. Really if your team is outnumbered i guess this is a good strategy but try not to piss of anyone too much. Really people can camp all they want as long as i have my trusty rocket launcher :)

and #2 if u want go to "The Classifieds" forum and make a post advertising a Halo PC clan, or even make a post here advertising a clan, i think ur allowed to...

ummmmm okay checked the rules, i'm still not sure if a PC clan counts as a seventh column chapter but just to stay on the safe side, make a post on ur clan in "The Classifieds" section.

camping's okay, unless there were ALOT of you doing it. then it's impossible to end the game. Especially on a CV server, where you need 10 scores to end the game
