racking up the kills...

in BF2 you get bonuses for getting high scores... like the availability of new weapons... not just a pretty medal next to your name.

You get some bonuses based on rank which is based on points which is based on several things. Killing a person gives you a point, and so does reviving them as a medic. Basically both characters are racking up the points. Its smart. If I had a buddy that played bf2, i'd do this for sure.

They're pretty much screwed given the amount of firepower I'll release.

So, if two users on the server piss you off, you and your script kiddie fat pipe (which is probably not real, but we'll pretend it is), you will ruin everyone else's time in an effort to get revenge by costing the server op, who never wronged you, hundreds in bandwidth costs, as opposed to politely asking that the offendors get banned, which would probably happen?

I agree,that's the dumbest thing that I have ever heard. People don't HAVE to put up servers for us to play on. IT's hard enough to get into ranked games as it is.

Man, that'd piss me off. I'd just leave the server and come back under a different account. Of course, if you did it to them they'd ban you.
