Consider him a rocketer, doesn't change much. Yes, I made up a new one!
A rocketer! If you use a lot of rockets!
This makes just about as much sense as "camper" and "slider"!

Happy

imho lock it as long as it this happy

in 1v1 i never chrouch behind a spawnpoint. And maybe there is also a difference between spawn camp and the general word of camp (reason: there are round based games where is no spawn camp possible so this cause the actual word CAMP a different meaning)

its not a new thing for me. and i understand you will never accept it, cause you never played with different switch.

Again... who are you to say how many different switchtimes i have played with?

so we consider him a camper on same points. whats the problem? :roll:

There, the use of the word consider... I just have a prob with people with people who think they know what I think better than me. And obviously can tell me what configs I have played too... You are most welcome to tell me that you think I am wrong, or that you have another opinion than me, just dont come tell me that I AM wrong or that my opinion IS wrong or that your side of things is the right side of things, which is what you do all over the place.

And he asked for a defenition of camping, it is just the way you say it that annoy me. You tell him what camping is rather than what YOUR defenition of camping is. I know its picky and rather silly....

im saying things from the things you posted. nothing more, nothing less.
you post why you consider him a camper, i say those are the exact same points i consider him camper on. not guessing your points. using points you posted.
someone is paranoid here...

so what you are trying to say is, that im guilty of not writing a big disclamer in my sig: "everything i write is my opinion and im not stating it as fact. consider every sentence i write to have 'in my opinion' on the end".

i used to include a lot of IMO and IMHO in my posts before, but i assumed people figured out that its just my style of writing, so i stoped. whats the problem with that?

read above. i dont do it all over the place. if it makes you feel easier ill put that disclamer in my sig. while im at it ill put labels on everything, so people couldnt missunderstand anything i say. *end sarcasm*

no i tell him my definition of it. if i was to say "It is like that and cant be different" i would have posted evidence, linked to reference, quoted other authors, etc.

since i havent done any of it, it is my opinion alone. not an unbreakable fact.

So many forums...every single time the same problem! I guess everyone should put this in their sig, as you said.

Geez guys, you've taken this discussion to the center of off-topic city now Happy.

I think it should be clear to anyone, that every single person on this planet will have a different opinion on something than the other. But you get off the point here, imo.

Back in the Quake 1 days, there were clear definitions of player archetypes described and set out as community standards by the masses, and one of these archetypes was a Camper. What you guys are doing here, is mixing two player archetypes. One is Sniper, other is Camper. By the general definition (from Toby Goldstones UO Quake FAQ):

[Sniper]
These guys main strategy is to get an explosive weapons and
camp in a hard to hit spot raining grenades or missiles down on your
head. These guys are annoying. I find the best strategy against them is
to ignore them, or wait them out. They have to come out for more
ammo sooner or later, and when they do, load them full of buckshot.
Snipers tend to have very poor engagement skills, which is the main
reason that they snipe in the first place.

And

[Camper]
These guys are pretty easy, usually. They just sit near
respawn spots with a weapon, and try to kill whoever
respawns there. Usually you can sneak up on these guys, because they
don't pay attention surroundings. Not only that, but they will rarely
get many frags, because they don't hunt people, get armor or ammo...They just sit there.

Of course, definitions get out-dated, games evolve, and one main inconsistence is the lack of items in E+ that are worth defending (aside from the occasional power-up, of course), but, in general, i don't think much has changed since then. And imo, Giz is neither, he's just a Sneaky Bastard Big grin
