The ignorance and piss-poor attitude of avg. socom players.

[OTTER]

You know what I hate? Players who fail to notice talent. There is a large chunk of the socom community who just say "omfg he lags" when they die. Ever think that the guy is actually better than you? It IS possible you know.

Unless you see the guy running in place and/or skipping 5 ft all over the place, he isn't lagging, you died fair and square, so STFU and get over it.

I can't stand people who blame all their deaths on lag, there are tons of amazing socom players out there. Realize them and give them props. Instead of freaking out at them, say "damn Otter, you had a great game man".

I'll use me as an example...last night in an FU room (this whole post is not, in any way shape or form directed solely towards [FU]) I came in, it was crossroads 6^6 I think, maybe a 7^7. I start doing good, getting lots of kills and stuff, on my screen the entire game, no lag at all thanks to a good host. PUNX, in mid game says, "guys, Otter isn't lagging, he's a good player." That's coming from PUNX! Anyway I go in the lobby and get:

"damn canadian laggers"
"friggin knuck lags"

etc etc. I know they were joking, but I get it all the time. People need to open their eyes and just say, ok...that guy is better than me. Or, ok, he got me, I'll devise a new plan and get him next time. Instead of freaking out over lag.

In the end of a game, say "gg" to the other team, give them compliments, congratulate them on a victory/loss. It makes socom much much more enjoyable to play. You make more buddies this way too...

I once had a good friend tell me this: "Otter, I hate to break it to you, but you're only good because you lag." That is by far the biggest BS I've ever heard in my life. Nobody is simply good because they lag. Maybe some HARDCORE laggers who lag EVERY MINUTE of EVERY game. I don't. I do have skills, I am a good player, get over it, I don't lag half as bad as I'm accused of.

I'm sorry for rambling...the point is: Some socom players are just really good, they don't lag terribly, they aren't "MajicSwitching" or pulling their cord every chance they get. They are just TALENTED. Please learn that word. Talent, some players actually have it guys!

I always except my death but when I chase a guy down and I have my M14 barrel up his *** and put a full clip in then he turns around and kills me thats when I get mad.

Hey, I know just what you mean. I get accused of cheating all the time, and do you wanna know why?































BECAUSE I'M JUST THAT GOOD!!!!!!!!!

I agree with both u and Mr-Pan, but i do tend to think they might be lagging if you shoot them lots and lots of times with an M16 and see them dance on you full of blood spots...

Now who in our clan ever says anything like that?


But honstly, yeah, I complain often, sure, some of the time I really should have killed the guy. But then there's the rest of the time when it's my own fault. Otter, you are a talented lagger.

Contrary to popular belief, I do not auto-M16 glitch. Thanks though.

I dont blame my deaths on lag i just blame my usual crappy aim.

[Olivaw]

I agree wholeheartedly, man.....the same logic could also transfer over to weapons gripes. I learned from my first clan to have good gamer etiquette. Those guys would even go voluntarily to pistols if there were, say, 8 of us on seals and 3 or 4 on terrorists....it evened up the game, it let the smaller team still get a few kills and they didn't quit out and leave us as 8 vs 0. Alot can be said for being a "GoodGamer" over a "Complainer"

Everyone is competitive. Its human nature.
