Subject: Betrayal Booting

so this time I am being serious! in one day i was booted atleast 6 times because no one on my team knows what the word "accidental" means. for instance on a game of Invasion: Spire, the enemy had our core and were in a hog headed to my team and I had a banshee... Don't get ahead of me. so I lock-on and "banshee bomb away" my team captures the hog right before it hits and three of them die. without a second thought they all decide to boot me instantaneously. needless to say they did lose so I'm sightly content with that outcome. But the reason for this post is to tell you all to consider the following, "if you are killed by a mate with a gun WHO SHOOTS YOU IN THE FACE OR WHAT NOT... BOOT HIS SORRY @$$, but if you are betrayed by say oh i don't a BANSHEE BOMB, OR A STICKY IN THE THICK OF IT, then FORGIVE AND FORGET. Really though I'm just tired of getting betrayal booted. so if youre playin reach and a banshee bomb out of nowhere smokes you, and it's a "betrayal" forgive that person. BUT IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN THEN BOOT THE EFFER!!!!

I feel your pain. In most cases the people do know it was an accident but they just want to make you angry

yeah... still it works

I hate it when kids get pissed if I get the wraith and then they try to run in front of me and get run over then they boot me so they can get the wraith. And I hate when people boot you when they don't even know what happened. Those people are asshats. I wish that you couldn't get the boot option unless the person has betrayed 3 or more people that game.

I never boot anyone, unless I know they killed me on purpose, even then I may give them a chance, but if they keep bugging me, I will boot them.

If I have a Team Mate that is trying to kill me, I always warn them that if they do, I will Boot them if it allows.

If the kill me, and I do boot them, I send a message, "Hope you enjoyed been booted".

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

Deal with it.

If you're betraying that much you're doing something wrong, you don't have the awareness not to banshee bomb or nade the enemy when your team is around, you don't care if your team dies as long as you get the kills on the enemy. You need to play smarter.

In all honesty, you deserved to be booted. Regardless of whether or not it was an accident, you still betrayed a teammate. Going for a kill while not paying attention to where your teammates are shows poor situational awareness.

ALWAYS know whats on the other side of your target, if you are using an area of effect weapon, ALWAYS know what is near your target.

Due to your poor situational awareness, and your attitude that "it's all good if it was accidental" are what got you booted.

In order to remedy your dilema, try practicing with friends on a close-quarters map with snipers/explosives, your goal should be to not kill anyone on your team.

Betraying someone in a game is by most part an accident and it happens, it isn't a hard call when you know they are doing it on purpose and that they deserve to be booted, even if its a loss for the whole team or sometimes a benefit.

Really, anytime i see someone boot another person when it was an accident I betray them until they boot me. Happens once every 30 games or so on average so i doesn't really affect my w/l.

Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.

It happens man, I only boot if they killed me over and over again, and not a accidental way. Best way avoid getting booted, try not to engage with a enemy that also a teammate is going for.

  • 02.10.2012 5:49 AM PDT

Maybe u should stop betraying them and they wont boot u

I say 343 should turn off friendly fire so that no can betray or even harm a teammate.

And so God called Moses to come forth but he came fifth and was therefore disqualified.

I am not boot happy, I frequently forgive.

this, you deserve to be kicked for being a shiit teammate, i boot anyone that betrays me for 1 reason, if im getting the option then youve clearly already betrayed people in the game were playing or the games prior meaning your either and idiot or an assshole so im not gonna miss you and neither will the team, also your stats suck horribly, lrn2play

Accidental betrayals happen and getting booted stinks. However, 6 betrayals in one day is incredibly excessive. What does this tell me? Dude, you need to chill out in your play and be more careful not to become blinded in killing your enemies and accidentally killing your teammates.

You deserve to be be booted due to your overly aggressive play which brings on betrayals.

Un less i see there trying to kill me then i give them a second chance but no more after that

  • 02.10.2012 7:14 AM PDT

maybe if everyone didn't decide to crowd one d@mn3d enemy this wouldn't be here
