hi guys, im not gonna name names untill i know weather its the right or wrong thing to do, but is excessive teamkilling (im talking -300 each from 3 seperate players) grounds for a ban? (or even just a name and shame?), if so i have screenshots and the battlerecorder file for your viewing pleasure, should i just send them to the host site or raise the point on here? let me know what you think and if its appropriate i shal post them here. its people like this that ruin this game..... really ruin it, we had a nice 50 person game goin on then it all started, most people left obviously.... it totally ruined a 2 1/2 hour game!

I would inform the hosts of the server. If they were just TKing for the fun of it (which it sounds like they were), then I would see no harm in posting their names here. No excuse for teamkilling of that nature, no matter how bad of a day you are having.

i believe the reason was that they couldnt get onto USMC on al basra originally, then it just got out of hand.....

Didn't read the other two, but I assume that it was a hiccup in the forums. I've had double posts before for no reason from the forums having some issues, imagine that's what happened here.

hehehe...I doubt he did it on purpose. Unless he wanted to make a statement for each of the tk'ers

And about banning them? Sure, why not.

I dont think he meant to
To answer your question, yes it is. And if you have enough to back you up i dont see any reason why not to post names here or anywhere.

Hmm, and what did they TK? Because on Insurgents they have smacktards that waste all of the spawn cars, and eliminate every possible insurgent asset and if you get a pick up weapon, they'll TK you, so the weapon would be lost untill it respawns..USMC...A10 and Cobra, what else...or sniper kits, but havent seen that...

You have to look at they're support score, in ratio to their kill score. If he has like 2 kills and -200 they're TKing on purpose defenitly. If its like 10 and -150 then maybe not.

on the battle recorder the worst offender (akohn) admitted he was doing it on purpose untill they let him back onto USMC..... methinks noob? he then went on to say he was an admin and was gonna boot everyone THEN changed his story saying he was on his brothers game and was only messing around and didnt want to get banned, started to apologise then went on another tk'ing spree.....rubbishness!

Anyone who admits or is stupid enough to pretend he is deserves to get banned permanitly.

Im curious, what server was this?

I see that akohn guy has his clan tag as [g0t], possibly for [myg0t]. Famous cheaters/griefers from... every multiplayer game I've ever played.
Anyways I would suggest all those players be banned. No excuse for that bullshit at all.
When this stuff is posted publicly and something is done about it (bans), hopefully it will scare away any future griefers... although I don't think many who do that type of stuff visit the forums (although I know I have seen some!).

Hey! I'm in the second one!
Yeah I joined as USMC, and joined one of their squads(not knowing, he had 3 in the squad, and I figured I give them a 4th for an officer kit). Spawned on squadleader and watched him kill a squadmate then me at the airport, point blank for no reason.
Respawned and was instantly shot point blank by one of the other ones...
They were just running around team killing for a while, forced quite a few people out of the server
Edit: Myth I have played on PF quite a few times, and its always been good. I think this was just an unfortunate night, were the server was caught with out and admin on.
