Ok, I will admit it, I love to sit on the portal turret on Death Island and blow the enemy away. I feel no remorse, Ive been on the recieving end too you know.
Anyway whilst up on my perch I have made observations of how others react.
Firstly, "Boyscouts" the goodygoody-twoshoes players may try and tk you, so you have to be ready to kill ANY shee that comes for you, regardless of aligence.
When you are up their, your biggest threat are banshees, keep these guys on the ground, also if you can persuade another player to sit on the shee portal, so much the better.
Snipers- Turn you tank around! if you kde your cabin, snipers cant shoot you out of your tank. This can become amusing, as they will shoot, shoot and shoot u ith a sniper and do nothing, and so they run at you with a pistol in frustration.....Boom.
Ive seen many player come up with inventive/desprerate ways of getting me off the tank. Some are inventive (sneaking arounf to get a rocket launcher). Others are stupid (dancing around on the beach shooting with an AR or sitting it the far tree with pistol, even tho they are out of range.

I expect to be flamed on how cheap I am, but I honestly dont care guys ;)
I have no shame :D.

well, in Ctf, I do it but only so my team can get the flag when you have tank cover. flag capture is a walk in the park.

Camping doesnt bother me that much, cause there is always a way to beat it and good players find a way to beat camping.

Try Blood Gulch with tanks and warthogs and its 2 on 1 ctf - both tanks camping your base. That - that bothers me. 'All about the win', eh? I think that a good challenge is part of playing the game, and if I see somebody wailing on the other team by camping. I will tk them, or if I'm particularly peeved, I will switch teams and still kill them. Sportsmanship shows character - don't ruin it.

get inside, and wait for them with a shotgun. you cant score, but neither can they.
that sort of camping is kinda dull and not realy directly beatable, UNLESS you spawn ontop of the pase, go through the tele, get the rockets and blow them both to hell

Tanks are not hard to beat with banshees, you just gotta be quick. Campers are usually pretty easy targets.

Pistols can help to against campers in tanks also. Just hide behind plenty of cover or shoot from a distance.

I'm not concerned about your camping style at all. What depresses me about this thread is your ridiculous inability to employ one of the fundamental teachings of grammar. You titled the thread "Confessions of a Evil Camper." If you were to use proper grammar, it would read "Confessions of AN Evil Camper." If a word starts with a vowel, it is preceded by AN, instead of A. This is second-grade etiquette my friend, if you want to be taken seriously in this world, you have to polish your language usage.

You're lucky if you have to take a step before these guys got you - there were 2 of em... I know exactly what to do, but there was no time. there was no time to duck behind cover - there was no 'other side of the base' there were fricking TWO of them. to ONE of me - on CTF. It's not fun, it's lame, and it shows poor sportsmanship and after 2 more ppl joine up and I coordinated a strategy (Using them as distractions), I not only pwned those MF-ers, but I busted out my cussing dictionary too - camping is not fun, its not cool, it involves no skill, and displays no sportsmanship - and if I catch it on my server, you will be banned. That's how I feel about it - agree, disagree, whatever - just don't do it on my server.

Now, people like you are "Grammar Blams", it was my intention to write "Confessions of AN Evil Camper" but I must have missed the "n" key, resulting in a typo. After I had posted I reasoned that only the very lame would be bothered or offened by it (not that offending anyone bothers me in the slightest), and so decided not to do anything about it.

Ok,...why do you even care? are you an english teacher or something? As long as people can understand it, grammatical errors should be ignored. it seems awfully petty to come after him for such small things. He doesnt need an excuse to spell right, as long as people can understand what he is saying.

It's a time honored tradition. If you don't like a post and can't comment on the logic of it then just attack the grammar in a desperate attempt to discredit the poster.

Camping is cool. I get a sense of accomplishment when I kill a camper.

Typically, when I wail on a camper (especially those ever annoying campers with rocket launchers), there's a sense of "die, MF-er." Of couse, when I camp, I have no regrets. I'm hypocritical like that ;). I don't do that much anymore, typically its with a sniper in a concealed spot, but...

In any case, I'm just more of a pistol/sniper dude now than I was. It's just that nobody said that I can't fight fire with fire.

Correcting grammer and spelling is very important. If you don't type it in properly, you will get used to it, and make mistakes that you don't realise. This can be costly in, say, an essay worth 35% of your final mark or a resume.
