I really want to clear this up because it is really urking me. From the beginning people have been saying "EA needs to get rid of the punish system because n00bs are punishing for tks and costing me more points"..... The fact is, punishes do not affect score.
According to BF2's ScoreManagerSetup.con file:
Teamkill: -4
Punished Teamkill: -4
This is alot of peoples evidence that punished tks do affect your score. However, you EITHER get a punished tk or a tk, you cannot get both with one tk, therefore you can ONLY get -4.

There ya go. Notice, after the punish the score stays the same.
There are numerous reasons why people see -8 after getting a tk. For example, say you blow up a hummer and a friendly with low health walks by the wreckage when it explodes again and kills them. Things like that could happen after the fact and then make it seem like a punish actually affected your score.
If you tk someone with C4, you may have also damaged numerous teammates in the process.
