1)refilling every few second when fighting someone as a basic infantry- Oh no, not the dreaded refilling! Either kill them before they reach the terminal, or don't romp about in the enemy base where it is convenient for them to run and refill so they can oust that pesky invader (you). I'll bet you don't feel half as bad about refilling when somebody's trying to trash your base and you need some extra HP to fight them off with.
2)being a wuss to fight like a man!- I'm not even sure what that's supposed to mean. In any case, there are only a few tactics I'd consider 'wussy' in Ren, those being tunnel beacons, arty/mrls pointwhoring, B2B, and using exploits.
3)camping the whole game to get best k/d- Granted, camping out somewhere just so you can get kills with no intention of helping your team is quite n00bish.
4)Taking everyone else's kills- kills can't be owned; Ren is a team game. If you finish off an enemy whom a teammate was already fighting, that can be considered helping that teammate out. If you feel you deserved that infantry/vehicle/building kill, too bad- the object of the game is not to be the #1 top scoring player, it is to be on the winning team. It isn't as if you recieve any sort of health or ammo bonus for getting kills, so the only thing you stand to lose from a kill-steal is a point value which ultimately ends up adding to your team score anyway. On the other hand, whining about kill-stealing when you ought to be fighting the enemy team is n00bish.
5)being a weapon whore whole game for all weapons when all u need is 2- I'd venture to say that this one could only be construed as n00bish if said weapon-whore never makes use of any of them, but instead runs and hides so as not to risk losing them. If you can get all the guns and then use them to mop the floor with the other team, more power to you.
6)being a pussy sbh!!! always hiding and only attack when someones about half dead- That's rather the point of a stealth character. Besides, this is not a game which expressly forbids the shooting of wounded enemies; that is a practice which is actively encouraged because it is easier to kill the little fuckers that way. Can you honestly say you'd rather wait for that Mobius with 10HP left to go and refill before fighting him instead of popping some lead in his back and getting it over with? Didn't think so. The shimmer effect of the cloak is somewhat difficult to miss once you're close enough to see it, so the only real reason they're more successful than any other class is because people don't pay enough attention- and then whine about it when someone takes advantage of their complacency. Hardly n00bish.
7)people that say ownt or pwnt to many fucking times lol- no argument here. Unless in friendly jest, I generally find such comments to be juvenile and stupid. I know you killed me, you know you killed me, the whole game got a message about it; unless you're someone I have some respect for I don't want to hear your opinion of how much better you are- especially if that opinion is expressed in a single-syllable misspelled word.
8)geeks that talk shit in the game but pussys in person- those folks are as old as the internet... but n00bish nonetheless.
9)thinking you know how to test for cheats when yopu dont know shit- I'll just assume that means the people who cry 'HAX' every time they get blown away because they 'know' X weapon can't do Y amount of damage, etc etc etc. Yeah, that's pretty lame.
10)Thinking your all hot shit- ...until somebody serves you your own ass and you can't cope with it, so you spring into a frothing rage? Yeah, I think we've all seen a few of those in our time.
and for a add on heres wat i think is pro
1)Using 500's not n00bjets- Couldn't agree more. Let me just add "PIC/Rail instead of n00bjets" on there just for good measure, since both of those get usurped by King Cheesygun too.
2)Can pistol whip someone- Honestly, a pistol is a backup gun. I can respect an Engineer class who lays on the pain with his/her sidearm, but anyone else who'd use their pistol over their primary weapon is foolish. Great that you can keep fighting after you're out of ammo, but I'd rather be retreating by my last clip and never need to use the thing. Exceptions made for weapons that just aren't that great against infantry.
3)Can mine right- something Ren players everywhere have longed for since the first round of the first public game ever played, yet continue to find lacking in oh-so-many of the less experienced crowd...
4)Knows how to play- I'll just go ahead and add 'even if they aren't the best.' I'm not ever gonna win any marksmanship awards, nor will I usually take MVP, but somebody please shoot me the day I forget how to play this game.
5)can get to agt on field from nod!- Eh, evading the towers like that is more exploit than skill. Infantry without armor support need mass attacks or lots of HP to legitimately run up to a tower on their own. Harv-walk and that stupid jumping backwards trick don't count.
6)Knows how to find hacks- a more n00bish quality could not be imagined.
7)Can kill a mammy with a arty- that ain't so tough- assuming you take 'em from a distance. Now, if you can get that same kill in close combat, I'll have reason to be impressed.
8)Good with a Patch- ...or TAR Sydney, or any of the other almost-never-used chars.
9)Can ob walk to ALL buildings on under- Ob walk is an exploit, and as such falls under the heading of 'general asshattery and n00bishness.'
10)Can HS someone with a rocket!- I must admit, I've been playing Ren since release, and I still can't do that without a lot of luck tipping my hand. Still, if rockets are tough to HS with, I'd throw in an extra special kudos for the grenade launcher.

List of Pro Things to do.
1. Buy a sbh and steal tanks, the 1337 way.
2. When Hon/Bar is down, Whore the Ramjet.
3. Pretend your a girl to get donations for a Stank.
4. Repairing Enemy tanks!!
5. Buying 3 buggy's/Hum-Vees, taking them onto the battlefield and letting enemys take them!
If you don't follow them, you suck.
Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

Gunner essentially fires the same way as a tank - if you're good enough to consistently get bodyshots/headshots with a med, light or arty, you'll probably do fine with a gunner too.

1. Talk big by using such great phrases as 'g?G' and 'chet?z0r!' , and polluting the forums with these:
2. Demand 1 v 1's, and then run the fuck away when someone good accepts.
3. Plant a beacon on a pedestal, say 'LOL I WIN g?G n00b' , and then realize pedestal has been disabled, only to run away and leave the game claiming you still won.
4. Claiming that your higher kill/death ratio is the real way to prove skill, even though your base is being blasted back to Baghdad.
5. Boasting of your being the first to play Renegade in your Uncle's cabin in Austria on a map that hadn't even been created yet, or something to that extent.
6. In a 4 vs 4 in n00bstories 2, you are whoring an airstrip (that is being repaired) on City_Flying with an Orca, racking up points, ignoring the APC landing off the plane, ignoring the four engineers piling into the APC, and then claiming you're bored when your Power Plant crumbles, but not before calling your team and the opposing team 'n00bs' and then leaving.
7. Being a mySpace "rapper" .
8. Did I mention planting a beacon on a pedestal, and then claiming you won, even though pedestal-win was disabled, and then running away.
9. shity spleing and gramarr cos u think ur 2 l337 2 poofreed
10. I'd be creeped out to go to anyone's cabin in Austria, to be honest. Sounds like where you'd meet 'Baron von Reacharound' .

# 42: Demanding a 1v1 at all, since it proves nothing about your ability to function as part of a team, unless you are using said 1v1 as a proxy to determine the outcome of some disagreement or as a challenge of (drumroll) an equal's ability to best you in fair sport. People who go around demanding 1v1's over dumb shit then whining and getting pissy when someone says "no" to them... well, they irk me. That could possibly be because I'd be ass-awful at a 1v1, yet I dare say that some random n00b demanding one of me- probably because I called them out on something dumb they did, which I know is dumb because I've been playing Ren for years longer than they have, in-game- would only demand such a contest just because it's the only one they'd be at all likely to win. I always pick on this whenever it comes up- anywhere, ever- but stupid e-penis contests in gaming really put a burr up my ass because I don't want to be hassled by some over-competetive little tool looking for an ego trip in a game that I play for recreation.
# 101: Complaining about your team when you could be doing something to help out. I may be weak and bitch at some dumb fucker on occasion (Ren wouldn't be the only game), but I generally try to at least include something constructive in that colorful comment, or I try not to say it at all. If my team is being a bunch of douchebags and letting the base get wasted while they're off playing UberPointWhoreFestaPalooza2k7, I'll say something to the tune of "Defend the damn base, morons-" and then go grab something I can defend the base with (If I don't already have it, which I normally do). I can't stand the stupid little shits who moan and groan about the WF being nuked when they're halfway across the map in an MRLS plinking away at the HoN (which is being repaired anyway, showing the color of their remarks as being those made by someone pissed off that 'someone else's incompetence' lost them the opportunity to do more pointwhoring). Basically, back up your words with action or don't fucking type them. I don't want to hear about how the defense or the offense or the pie fight in the tunnels needs more support unless you're already on the way to help out.
Oh, and yeah, I suppose it is a pointless topic; It's all been said about a zillion and a half times, but... how often does anyone really talk about Ren anymore? Even if it's a stupid re-hash, IMHO any topic that concerns the actual playing of Ren (and not just forum drama or 'so and so is doing such and such') merits a post or two. That, and it's fun to blow off steam at fucktards from time to time.
