Placed a great UAV.

*Nobody responds*

What's the use of a UAV then? :)

The guy on my team in the Shadowhawk who produced 54 damage, 0 kills and 0 assists blamed my team for being morons and other worse-terms.

:(

I can only carry so hard in my Blackjack, you know.

Just had a drop in the Manifold where a hunchie camps on base until the team is dead & red is all softened up. 2 easy kills for him, plus one to his KDR rating. Is that not the textbook definition of kill stealing? What weird type of gratification is that giving this weenie?

1. I do something stupid or am generally unlucky and get killer relatively early.
2. Spectate some chump that seems to have poor tactics and piloting skills, but still manages to contribute.

Reaction: Are they really better than me? Am I really that bad?

Of course I realise that surviving isn't always synonymous to contributing and seemingly bad aim can be lag speaking, but you know the feeling.

From what I've heard spectating is a little bit behind whats going on,and so some of the shots that look like the miss actually hit.

There's surely a better thread to discuss this in, but yes, spectator mode is unreliable. Recently spectated somebody's ERPPC "miss" against a jenner by a considerable distance, but the hit is scored and the jenner dies. Guessing it's the realtime data before HSR is evaluated..? I don't know.

They can claim whatever they want, but they say GG simply because they won and feel good about it.

I say GG when it is a good game. At no other time. If we stomp a team, I never say it as I have enough sense to know some might take offense to it.
I hate it and I won't slap anyone else in the face with it.

So i go front brawling with my Atlas, trying to get a solid cover from the pass on Crimson. D5 stands 4 - 5 teammates on the pass. Enemy was on the base level. Told them to move in to crush the enemy faster as other teammates were flanking them. I told them to move for gods sake. They didn't do. Dumb pancakes.
I died ripped in pieces due their late actions. Happens too many times. I was very pissed. We still won, but it could end very bad.

Need to cool off for a couple of days :)

Interesting attitude.

Just know, that you might just be slapping people in the face after a hard stomp. Just give it a thought. Take it as you like basically means "It's their problem, not mine."
Except, you could not give it the chance and keep quiet or if you must "GG" to someone, do it to your own team?
They are the ones who might appreciate the sentiment, victims of a 12-3 stop probably aren't.

Have a bit of decency?
