What is everyone's opinion about the /kill command? Should people who use it get kicked?

if you are referring about people who use the /kill command right beofre they are about to be killed, then yes I think its lame and should be looked down upon. Those people only do it because they are stat whores and like to have really high kill ratios on the stats page.

using /kill doesn't affect your stats?

by **Edogg** » Wed Dec 03, 2003 3:11 pm

when you /kill yourself it doesnt get recorded as a death in the stats web site.. Therefore the player who does this when he is about to be killed by an opposing player has basically cheated the system by not having a death affecting his kill ratio.

Its cheap, but if something is that important to somebody that they go out of their way to kill themself just to not lower their rating than ratings mean nothing to me anymore.

I agree. although , when I was playing rtcw I only saw one guy who did it. Its not very wide spread as far as I know. I cant remember his name. Id have to scan the names with higher kill ratios for it to refresh my memory on who it was.

I know several people who do that. Panzers are the bigger issue though, it is unfair for a panzer to fire and then kill himself on purpose just to get a new bar and fire again, and again. Panzers need to have there drawbacks as well, using the /kill command takes away from the drawbacks.

well well well let me toss my 2 cents into this one cause seether got all upset he couldnt kill me.the main point i have to make is did the enemy die ..? yes i died ...did you kill me no .? so this is more of a complaint that you didnt get stats for killing me ..and your calling me a stat whore..the enemy was killed thats all that should matter.and you want to kick me cause you cant kill me thats very very sad. id love for the server to use osp settings like 30 second respawns and ff on but thats not gonna happen. theres more problems on the server then me self killing.

lol...I dont give a shit either way. i dont play anymore. I was just pointing out how lame and pathetic it is. The guy who was doing it to me was talking shit. Thats even more pathetic. Everytime I was about to kill him he would /kill himself. Then every time he killed me he would proceed to tell me how many times he killed me that round and brag how I couldnt kill him.

I too believe this is the bigger issue of the /kill option. Maybe this will be nerfed a bit since the # of lives has just been decreased on each side, but, who knows?:roll:

by **Edogg** » Wed Dec 03, 2003 5:56 pm

ah I remember the name of the guy who was doing it now.
His name was Handarak or something similar to that. It was in all blue letters.

Sorry if this is leaning towards being off topic, but I just had to post that punks name now that I remember it.

It's important to /kill in matches, and i think it's ok to do it then, b/c why stay alive with 2 health and no ammo than /kill and not fall into a long spawn. But the guys who /kill before a panzer hits them...i think that's lame.

by Conscious* » Wed Dec 03, 2003 6:00 pm

i use it maybe 2-3 times a game if im panzering..i use all my panzer rounds and grenades and luger clips first though, then i use /kill if theres no Lt. around

by **(SEETHER)** » Wed Dec 03, 2003 6:18 pm

MMmmGood has informed me that using /kill command is not allowed and is grounds for kicking.

You play online RPG's don't you?

I don't care either way. If I don't get a kill because someone /kills themself, it doesn't really affect me because I could care less about stats. With the lowering of the max lives right now, people won't be able to do it as much anyhow. So both sides pretty much win.

Kick people who use /kill cmd ???
