Yeah, there's nothing like S3 hummies against S1 bugs.

I hate feeders.

I hate feeders so much.

They are almost worse than lamers.  At least with lamers, you can do something, and rebuild if you caught them soon enough.

We moved to a good base, and my granger buddies even helped me set up good defenses for once.

Of course, even especially well placed S1 defenses don't help much against lucys, grenades, and homicidal bsuits.

Perhaps there could be some kind of feeder warning if a player dies so many times within a certain time period.

For the rest of us who would be horribly annoyed by such warnings, there could be a setting in the menu to turn it off.

I still think kills [I meant deaths] should be displayed in stats, and I'm not entirely sure what the argument against this is?

And if you hate feeders that much, why do you want to be able to turn off the warning? Surely anyone who gets them is feeding and should stop, regardless of how 1337 they are.
(Obviously you can't stop people making custom clients though)

EDIT: Whoops, thanks Glunnator XD

Yes, but what if feeders are feeding YOU? What do you feel then? hate them? love them? hug them? slap them? kick them? eat them? fry them? nade them? eat them? feed THEM?  make use of them?do something else with them? ask them out for dinner?  :eek:
Ignore that.

No offence, really. no offence. :)

I don't understand why you like lamers more than feeders. There are rarely any intentional feeders, whereas all lamers are intentionally doing so (apart from plain bad builders). Feeders, on the other hand, are just newbies who haven't figured out how the game works. (I mean, rarely do lamers decide to feed all game, because it's much quicker and more fun to decon the base)

Just tell them to hang back or you'll have them votekicked, and if they still keep feeding, then carry out your threat.

If it hadn't been for unintentional feeders, I never would have learned how to kill a bsuit with a dretch, or a tyrant with a shotgun!  Though granted, luck is a factor :P

There WILL be feeders, mostly unintentional.  You (the reader) were a feeder when you first started too, assuming you are not still.

I guess a feeder is anyone up against a more skilled opponent really.

Learn to deal with them IN the game and you will improve immensely as will anyone who has to deal with a much better equiped opponent.

If ppl are calling you a feeder you have a very ignorant team.

UNLESS it's your fault that tyrants are storming the base!

Think about it. You will find an awnser 8)

Depends, are you killed more often than you kill?

Your l33t high scores may balance out with the kills you give the opposition and be ultimately worthless to the team, meaning that although you look really cool, you're actually ineffectual, aside from causing everyone to stage up a little faster.  :D

OT: haha I used that when I was 8 or so, then I tried to skip a couple easy lessons and instead skipped sections, into this crazy hard stuff, and I got mad and stopped using it. I still type faster than anyone I know >_>
