Server etiquette
Some pretty simple guidelines, please respect them. - Don't yell and scream about camping. Guarding frozen bodies in Freeze tag, or your base/flag entrance/escape routes in CTF is a smart tactic and perfectly acceptable.
- Some people might actually be better than you (no way!), that doesn't mean they're cheating. Though some players take being called a cheater a compliment, many more don't. If you really.. really think somebody is, record a demo making note of the times for us to watch for, and send a link via PM to a h8 member.
- Racist or vulgar user-names aren't funny, and aren't acceptable.
- Suiciding into space or lava to reset your health is not a fair tactic, do it enough and you'll get a temp ban.
- Don't wear a group's tag if you're not a member, and don't impersonate other players.
- If you need to go AFK (away from the keyboard) temporarily then go into spec. Don't sit in spec forever either, you're using a slot that someone who actually wants to play could use.
- Don't spam your site or server address.

I had a lot of fun doing this in the past, but in the end was banned for it. So Listen to cold-B, kids...

Re: Server etiquette
All good rules, but the one which I didn't know about through basic common sense and decency is not to jump into space or lava. I'd seen folks do it, and on a couple of maps when trapped near a lava pit by several opponents, I've tried it. Is it really unfair, b/c it loses one a frag anyway?
