    I get bored without it

    with people playing on different teams all the time, their special spots done stay secret long, so I dont see that as an issue

    as for ghosting that can be a concern

    Well as far as ghosting goes. You would need to have clan members/ Friends on the same team thats the only way to help prevent ghosting, not stop it but help. Because when you have clan members/ friends on the different teams its just like having free spectate on.

    True, Krag.

    Bronco said it gets contentious each time it's tried. But it's been "tried" on CoD4 server 2 for as long as I've been playing at TG, and like I said, I've never noticed, nor heard of anyone else noticing, ghosting on CoD4.

    Actually, that's true for CoD4 server 2. I believe I once heard mumbled suspicions of ghosting on server 1 during its current spell as a stock, ranked server.

    Seriously, we see the same people day in day out, with the occasional vagrant showing up on our doorstep. You'd think you guys would show some trust :P

    Also, people say speccing your teammates is more useful than speccing anyone. Well go ahead and spec your teammates, then. No-one's stopping you. Should you be FORCED to only spec your teammates? I don't think so.

    Drat, tried to give you some rep Balfa, but I need to spread it around I guess.

    I think you have to be a SM. Not sober enough right now to actually find out if that is true.

    Well, according to the results of this poll, we are a split community. What to do?

    Well I voted that I do not care either way. So when ever you need a yes or no answer let me know becuase I'll need to use my trusty coin. The coin knows all.

    Re: Free Spectate?

    im saying leave it the way that it is. i mean it takes out that certian element in COD4 and it makes you think of where you have to go instead of memorizing certian spots. i know that i am still finding different hiding spots in waw b/c there is no free spec and it is a great surprise when you find a spot that you know will not be found out for a couple of days!!

    Based on the split vote and further consultations with players, we'll try freespec for a week and then decide if it's having a negative effect on the game play and go from there.
