Grief system

[niplan]

Ok, This is really pissing me off, i have over 500 grief due to the idocy of others. Firstly why do i get grief when someone hits me with there tank? why do i get 25 grief for being hit with the wing of a gal.? And one time, some how i got grief for hiting my self with the spalsh of my own tank.. and so on and so forth.

And those idiots who stab you with the fucking knife, and get all pissy when you spread their brain matter across the walls, i think that if someone injurs you first you can shoot them without getting grief. Or set the knife so if you knife a friendly you get double normal grief.

Well you probably get grief when tanks run you over to prevent the people out there who jump in front of tanks to give the driver grief. And also when you get run over you hurt the tank alittle... but yeah I agree with you it's stupid they make you get grief when the driver hits you.

First, when you're hit by a friendly vehicle, the impact causes damage to the VEHICLE, as well as yourself. And, since you're the one causing the damage, you get some grief. It's usually not fair in the slightest, but that's how it works, and it also prevents people from purposely trying to give other players grief points, at least to an extent.

Second, you're the one who keeps losing your temper and smearing your teammates all over the walls. If you're so angry about it, you should be willing to take the grief points, as the people with knives are obviously willing to. Keep mind that if they KEEP knifing teammates, they WILL get their knife taken away. Now, I'm not saying that people should drop everything they're doing and start jabbing pointy things into their teammates, but chances are they were just fooling around, and you couldn't take a little lighthearted fun. If they were actually actively trying to kill you with the knife, then you shouldn't be so angry over your grief points. That's why they give you an 1000 point limit; because sometimes it's necessary.

So how is it "light harted fun" when your trying to guard the spawn tubes, have no armor and are less then half health and some prick stabs you. and theres only one other spawn guard? But i do understand what your saying.

I don't think my previous post made it clear enough that I think if they really are trying to do serious damage to you, then you should kill them. Serves 'em right. But you should be prepared to accept the consequences.

i think everyone gets way too upset over grief points... i mean it takes 1000 to lock weapons right

another thing that bothers me is two people are fighting each other (same team) why do other people jump in.... mad grief for all involved

another situation... a few days ago i ran over a friendly with my harasser because of a lag spike.. and then was hunted by his mini squad of 6 people i ended up with over 200 grief getting them off my a$$ not that im complaining because that would make my previous comment hypocritical i mean the GP are already gone

..... grah i hate people =P

yeah i hate it when people just "accidently" run you over and you get grief points for it, but its ok if they say sorry to you or something and you only get like 6 grief anyways. STILL it can be pretty annoying.

He's a Werner player, british Werner players like myself are the minority, most of the others seem to speak french/german/dutch so its probably his second language.
