I was once booted for "camping" on a race server. Hey guys, you know that world-wide known famous tactic that many nation's miltiaries use in real life? They call it many things - ambush, setting up a trap, waiting for the enemy come to you, the frog doesn't chase its food because it waits for the fly to come to it, and such. But we call it camping. People do it in real life. You're not so dumb if you defend your base. There's a difference between standing in the same place waiting to get cheap kills and getting your ass kicked by competent players and defending your base, as in CTF and such. Some race clans are good, but lots of them are quite retarded.

I doubt any race clans are good. Give me the name of 1 good race clan.

Out of interest, are there any really good players on these forums?

Don't like the rules? Ho$t your own $erver. Money talks and
bull-blam!- walks.

Heh heh, great quote.

Don't bypass the profanity filter, you'll get banzorfied. I've seen it happen. it's there for a reason.

Ya, Simon, you don't have to lecture about that to me. I've heard that more times that you think.

SimonJester753 was explaining it to hINDU gANGSTA.


Really? There's someone in the forums witha name containing the "F" word, only it's spelled with a "V" instead of a "U" like they did in Rome before they started carving curved letters. I see him posting frequently. I'd always assumed that if you could slip it through the filter it was ok. Thanks for the heads-up.

I wonder if the Wolf thinks the Moon listens when he howls at it.

BFM is such a garbo clan. bfm= b17chy "flipping" monkeys

The "camper" is the guy who kills his enemy effectively, (as defined by his enemy). The noob is the guy who walks into the same camper's trap over and over and complains about which weapon he got killed with, or where the camper was standing when he killed him.

Ehem. Just to throw this out there. This is a game. People are aloud to do what ever they want on their own servers. If you don't like their morals, then leave. Stop complaining about people's servers. It's theirs, for god's sake.

There is NOTHING wrong with camping IMO. But to be courteous on other's servers, I try not to offend them. Every server's going to have different morals. You best be ready to cooperate with THEIR rules, because not every one has the same opinion.

Hehe, seeing as you're still talking, I thought you'd need to hear it again. Good job finding a reason to reply. Telling me off because I have similar opinions with some one smarter than you is such wonderful ignorance...

Nice job trying to look mature. But if someone already stated something, it's sheer ignorance on your part to re-post it again. That just shows you can't read. Now get out of my thread.

I love your retarded logic. Seeing as you still went on talking after he posted. It just goes to show how the Maw is dropping its old members. People like you come in. Now, if you want to argue points with me, go ahead. So far, you haven't said anything close to intelligent.

I don't you understand that BFM and plenty of other clans are corrupt. That isn't retarted, I hate it when people say that questions are retarted.

Who are you?

Ya, wookie, I'm fine and all with BFM's rule, but to be honest it's their definition of "vulgar" that turns me off. I can't even say OMFG or "that sucked balls".

Yay, more stupid people that host! I was in the -JR- server and this guy said, "Aw ****!" The admin says, "Hey no cussing, even asterisks count."

WOW!

Then I type, "********************" Admin says, "Joe, you're pushing it."

WOW!

That's plain stupid. I love how they keep making up more stupid rules on their server that don't make sense.

By the way, if anyone new is reading this, don't say, "But you should be racing, not typing." Stfu. I usually come 1st in every Race server anyways.

Yeah, some poeple take it too far. But there's not much you can do about their servers. As for talking instead of racing, talking's an important part of game play. Helps you contact your team to plan things out, helps you notify people what's going on and it also let's you warn people to cut it out. Unfortunately, people feel the need to abuse it by cursing and complaining. That's why there's a ban feature! :)

Lol, I went in the -JR- server under the name "Fook Mi". It was about 30 minutes until someone noticed. Then some admin said, "Fook Mi, please change your name." Then I say, "OMG I CAN'T SEE TYPE AGAIN!!!" At the end of the game, I say, "MERDE!", which is another word for the s-word. Funny how someone in there knew what it meant, lol.

Hehe, no problem man. Sorry about the member comment. I was a little edgy due to some clan issues. Some things I do agree with and some things I don't.

Hey...I have THE greatest idea...let's go join the BFM server...and kill the players on the opposing team....

I guarantee you that I'll do that.

The point of any multiplayer gametype is to kill. I don't see the problem with slaughtering my opponent in a race. This isn't freaking Gran Turismo.

I'm joining the server...and I'm going to do what I want...

LOL.

I just went into the server, tried WALKING to a nav point, and I got yelled at by the dumbass MFB A_Bomb.

I'll make a list so you guys are cautious.

List of Race Clan dumbasses
MFB A_Bomb
MFB Headshot

The list will grow.

There's a difference between standing in the same place waiting to get cheap kills and getting your ass kicked by competent players and defending your base, as in CTF and such. Some race clans are good, but lots of them are quite retarded.

If I could fit that in my signature, it would be the only thing there. This is the worst with the frg on Danger canyon, one of the best gametypes on my clan's server. People don't know the difference between defense and camping, offense and whoring, etc. It gets old with all the complaints. If you don't like it, find a way around it and defeat it. Complaining won't do anything, because we don't ban for using a good strategy like the "heavy whores" who make all three captures.

My clan is really strict too, but we don't like cussing for a reason nobody else has stated so far: it disrupts the happy environment when someone says stfu noob or something similar. I may just laugh in the face of name-calling, but some people don't and take offense. As a member, it's my job to keep server quality as high as I can, and that means alerting an admin for bans when someone continues to cuss after being warned. I love my clan, and even though some of our rules are harsh, I obey them, and anyone who doesn't gets shown the door.

My clan is about having fun and helping others do the same while being polite. We consider ourselves "the gentlemen of the game," as our front page states. That's why we don't allow cussing. It's nothing moral, it's just out of goodwill towards other players.

Now, as for these race clans: they take it too far. They are hypocrites, they aren't polite about their warnings, and they apparently have no backbone as they don't apply their own rules to themselves and don't enforce the bans after one warning as they say they will.

^has most logic in this thread so far.

I think I've come to a conclusion that all race clans have the same stupid set of rules (including not saying G-rated language). Just TRY going into any dedi with the Race Gametype and say "damn". I swear 98% of the time you'll be warned. If anyone, ANYONE finds a race server that is less strict please tell me! I've tried most of the ones on the list.
