TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

Never, under any circumstance.

Once, though, this moron in a tank blew up the only car that my squad and I could use, as we were running for it. Nothing was around us and we had to walk for about 400 meters. I promptly blew up his tank with a couple packs of C4.

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

I will usually give them a test run of a few runs before deeming them a 'newbie'

Most do-gooders will tell you they are doing it for the good of others, and not for selfish reasons -
:laugh: :laugh:

I guess that you not being asked by the server owners to admin it for them must feel like an oversight, but it just means they dont want it.

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

I have NEVER TK'd anyone for a vehicle. The only thing that I am guilty of is firing a few rifle rounds at the heli as 1 person hopped in and didn't even bother waiting, but instead took off by themselves.

Automatic ban if you do this our server. Banned many an idiot for this, unfortunately.

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

I've never intentionally TK'ed for a vehicle either.

However, when I ask for pickup and they ignore me, I fire a few rounds in their general direction. Of course, newbie pilots will probably end up crashing their heli if they try to land to pick me up, so they might have a good reason for ignoring my request. :rofl:

No. Not ever.

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

I think the elitist approach is worth some debate. While offensive on initial examination, a deeper look reveals some possible merrit: a novice pilot will waste his team's time; a veteran pilot could mean the difference between victory and defeat. Does that factor influence anyone's thoughts on TKing for a vehicle?

Of course the problem with this argument is that a person can only progress so far by playing against bots. At some point they must start engaging humans.

So how then does the new guy get better if the "elitist" does not allow him the opportunity.

Rationalizing someone's bad behavior isn't very becoming. Especially when such a poor argument is used.

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

Never.

I have only intentionally TK'ed once. I was in the gunner seat in a attack helicopter. Some nimrod was standing on a barrier in front of the helo as it was revving up for takeoff. He was shooting at me through the windshield. I just let loose on round from the helo's gun.

Of course, he chose not to forgive me.

TK... me?

Yes

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

Never TK'd for it, but have fired a couple shots in the direction of those that jump in a vehicle and take off without me (as I'm sprinting toward it).

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

I did it once.. first time I did it I got banned..lol. I got a friend that does it all the time though..he's pretty ruthless. cobras, blackhawk gunner seats...whatever.. he'll tk u for it. But karma hits him so hard.

Never to anyone innocent...

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

Heinz, I do think that an elitist view is the way to go here. I understand that everyone starts at the beginning, but I believe that this game would be THAT much better if people started respecting those better than them.

bwhahahahah . . . you're a self-admitted teamkilling chopper whore. You're the one who has a respect problem.


And now you try to justify your behavior with a lot of self-serving rationalizations?

It is to laugh.

Re: TKing for a vehicle: do you do it?

I do it when someone gets into a chopper piloted by a squadmember I was going for. We both ask him nicley to get out, and if he refuses, well...

No. I feel the point of the game is for people to enjoy it, and that means all the reasonable players should have an equal chance to play (let's leave out those whose enjoyment is making others unhappy, they're not reasonable players).

This whole "I think I'm better than you, so I should have all the tanks/planes/helicopers while you don't even get a chance at them" thing is BS. It's utter selfishness pretending to be something else. Victory or defeat, who cares? Very soon the game is over and forgotten, and a new one begins.

But treating people badly in game tends to bother them for a lot longer. Just look at the number of threads about tkr's, stat-padders, cheaters and hackers. Compare them to the number of threads where people say, "hey! I won a game, woot woot woot!"

See what I mean?
