blatant and deliberate team killing...

[synkrotron]

I did a search on this topic, and boy, there are a lot of existing threads about this.

I deliberated resurrecting one of those but decided not too.

My story is a little different.

Twice this weekend I have been knifed by a guy in the same faction.

Both occasions happened at a time when I was an infiltrator, so perhaps these two guys simply hate infiltrators of any faction.

Tonight, I was at a Sundy changing into a Heavy because I decided that, seeing as there was a lot of enemy air around I could help more by bringing my Hawk into play.

Just as I changed this geezer knifed me. Knifing take two strokes to kill and is why I am saying it is deliberate.

I messaged him, asking why did he do it, but I was ignored. I could have reported him but I've found out, to my frustration, that this is a waste of time because SOE don't respond at all.

The funny thing was, a little bit later in the game, I killed a TR dood with exactly the same name, except the last character (a number) was different. It was a lucky kill too, so all the more funny.

I've since found out that this guy has three characters on Ceres all ending in 97, 98 and 99. Shortly after teamkilling me he switched faction. It was a real stroke of "good fortune" that we crossed paths like we did. I'd almost consider myself to be a hacker, which is a hilarious concept...

It really pisses me off though when peeps do this. I've been deliberately run over more than once, although it's always more difficult to prove that. And I've accidentally walked into the line of fire and so that is a my fault.

But knifing, for me, is such a deliberate and quite snide act to carry out. I understand that some peeps accidentally shoot others just as a reflex. I've done that once or twice myself. And even if someone walks in front of me as I pull the trigger, I message them and apologise, each and every time, no matter what I am up to at the time.

Anyway, rant over for now... I'm sure you've all had enough of peeps moaning about this.........
