You know what I hate? Team-killing. Nothing aggravates me more than getting whacked by someone wearing my colors.

Last night, while playing Warhawk, I got team-killed so many times, I was convinced I had the words “F*** the red team” written across my forehead.Team-killing is bad for everything. It lowers the killer’s stats, and then it lowers your stats when you go and get revenge, which you will do.

There I was, standing on a bridge, converting it back to our color, when a Warhawk flies down and hovers next to me. I was alarmed at first, but I noticed the red name, and realized he was friendly…

Or was he? (dun dun duuuuuunnn)

Next thing I know, he’s trying to shove me off the cliff. I jumped on top of his ship and tried to get away, but he just flew forward and I fell to my death. I spent the next ten minutes finding him and killing him. Shortly after I got my kill, I was kicked from the game. Worth it.

The next game I joined was similar, in that it ended with me eating dirt after being stabbed in the back by a teammate. Literally.

I had just grabbed the enemy Flag, and was hauling ass back to my base. Halfway there, I noticed one of my teammates running behind me. I figured he was there to cover me, so I decided to run with him. The second he got within stabbing range, he killed me, tea-bagged my dead body and took the Flag. I couldn’t get to him before he scored my point.

Team-killing is only acceptable in two instances:

Revenge: If some douche bag on your team kills you for no reason, you have to get revenge. I don’t know why, but after getting team-killed, that’s the only thing on your mind.

A player is hurting your team: If someone steals the enemy’s Flag, but is just standing behind your base and not scoring, you should use the headset to politely ask him to score, because you are down by four points, and would like to try to catch up. If he resists, you have to kill him for the good of the team. I’m sure he’ll be pissed, but it’s not your fault he’s an idiot.
