Depending on whom you are talking to, there seems to be some very gray areas when it comes to what is acceptable and what isn't in scrum.

For example, is it all right to shoot a player ahead of you if they have not gotten the flag yet? How close must they be before you can unleash the fury on them? How about if the player with the flag is smoking like a big dog and about to get killed by someone ahead of you? Can you then start raining shells on that player because they will become the flag carrier at any moment? How about the theory about "softening" up the best players in order to keep them smoking?

As for camping... We all agree that it is not acceptable (and not smart if you want to win). However, isn't it unavoidable sometimes?

For example, I've camped and scored many times because I spawned in the goal as the player with the flag approached along with his ravenous followers! Sometimes good defense looks and smells a lot like camping. I wish players would refrain from throwing that C word out there whenever it looks like camping. Unless it's blatant camping like demo's and noobs do, I don't think veterans should use that term.

As for diving... What's wrong with jumping off the cliff with the flag if you know as a fact that you are about to bite the big one near the goal without any chance of scoring? Isn't that one of the powerful rights that you earn when you claim possession of the flag? Should that person make the decision? I know it's frustrating to the rest of the players, but it is a smart strategic move in the big scheme of things, right?

It all depends on who u r playing against...and if its a team game or not...in teams anything goes except diving with the flag (usually) otherwise in indie if u are playing with all good sportsmen then I would advise against any of the tactics mentioned above...if idiots are around make the playing field even and do as the romans...

Um ok, still, everything unacceptable would have been banned from this game.-z- made this game with no problems for camping or cliffdiving, so they are acceptable!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is -z-'s game. He chose not to ban camping or cliffdiving so none of this your thalking about "unacceptable""acceptable" is irelevant. ;) %)

Camping is always out of the question, and as mentioned, not that effective (when up against real players). Its just a real Bitch move in general, although in a team scrum its all good (apparently).

Suicide, almost worse then camping (IMO).

Now that other stuff about shooting people ahead of you before they get the ball, etc. Etc..... I don't see how that's even questionable. OFCOURSE you can shoot em, everyone does. I've never seen anyone call people on that (and I do it constantly so I would have heard it at some point).

-z- did not make this game, BraveTree did. -z- is just a modder, a player, just like the people who play this game.

Anything is acceptable, as long as there sense in it and

YOU SCORE :P XD
