I don't mean to come off defensive, Sordavie. And it's nothing against you at all. If I were you I probably would have gotten frustrated as well. I'm making this point because I seem to get this alot with TG and it is part of the reason I stopped playing for the last 4 months. I'm not sure what to do. It's almost like someone needs to follow me around with a rule book and outlaw every tactic that I employ, as at least one person on these boards will call it 'cheap', whether in game or on the forums.

I made this point in a reply to another thread as well. I understand the spirit of TG and thought that I was being 'smart' and using the tools at my disposal effectively. Doing this while remaining well within the established rules of the server. My squad was doing very well and as you said, we eventually got the flag this way.

I understand TG doesn't want to make any more rules. Also that the ones in place are there to guide and 'common sense' should be used in all other situations. However, I would like others, maybe admins to check in to this thread and tell me if I am doing something wrong by employing the ninja drop tactic on maps with no air support. On that same vein, please post any other tactics or actions that I do while in server that you disapprove of, so I can stop pissing everyone off with my crazy antics.

I kind of agree with Bhack on this one and I think this sort of stuff has effected the server recently. It seems that everything has to have an answer or everything has to be an exact 50-50 split for it to be in the spirit of TG. But recently there is a dispute for any tactic that is somewhat fresh or new. It's a game guys and we all do what we can to uphold the TG primer. BF2 has it's limits and TG has pushed those limits even further but calling a tactic cheap just because it was successfull is kinda getting old isn't it? Thinking outside of the box should be encouraged and not discouraged.

I personally think it is a good tactic, SL is staying out of harms way to keep the mobile spawn point active, nothing different from a SL hiding somewhere so his squad can spawn on him. As Bhack stated AT's could have probably destroyed or severly wounded the chopper which would have at least made the chopper leave the area to repair.
