Nexuiz Etiquette: Type fragging

Postby ☃ (snowman) » Sat Jan 10, 2009 10:56 pm

Usually, I don't have a problem with this but sometimes, people simply wont make an effort to stay out of the way. For example, people who start typing in the middle of the fray and then complain when they die. Is it okay to type frag in these cases? How about in the extreme case of type fragging someone carrying a flag, keys, etc?

For me typefrags are ok in every situation...

People who stand around writing in the middle of a fight WILL be fraged. If not from u then from someone else....

In 1on1 its lame but everything else is ok

My opinion

Typefragging when person is in the corner of his base is not ok for me.

People should type if they

    a) Spectate
    b) just died and didn't respawn yet
    c) are in their base in a corner or somewhere else


Otherwise they will (or i do it) fragged. You can't type in the enemys base and other player do not kill you and then you grab the flag :P no way ;)
if you type in the middle you can be fragged even by accident :) and don't blame people for a typefrag , its just 1 point :D and useless anyway.
typing in a 1on1 is just stupid :D

Sometimes you just need to respond to something that was written now.. either because the other guy might be leaving or maybe someone reacted wrong and you can't wait because then you would have to explain WHEN he did WHAT wrong :P

Most of the time when people chat they either like to complain about teambalance or try to help anyone in some way so i generally think people that are CLEARLY chatting at the moment should not be fragged if possible!
Sometime its however hard to quickly see someone is chatting. In huge maps it can happen that you see the enemy color and shoot an rocket without any chance to see the chatsign. Well thats bad luck then..
Chatting in the enemy base however is really really a bad spot and i can understand if people frag there anyway. My personal point of view there is: If i think i can defend my base even with that guy around he might live.. that means Mirio: i would frag YOU if you were in my base as you are too good ^_^

typefragging imo is fair game, right of way goes to the fraggers
not the typers
its hard for me to respect someone who is offended by being killed in a videogame when they were voluntarily helpless
you will never see me complain about being typefragged
ever

It's good to see that the consensus is more reasonable than I had thought. :)
