Amen to that. Just the other day that happened. I bought a flame tank, and while chasing it off the runway, some n00b jumps in and takes off. I jump in with him and start hollering at him via team chat to get out of my tank. He ignores and drives right into the GDI base. I finally sent him a page and told him to get out. He stops, but doesn't get out. All the while, my tank getting pounded. Finally he hops out and a message "sorry, dude" appears on team chat. Now I have a tank at 25\% health surrounded by about 4 grenadiers. Needless to say, I didn't get much bang for that 800 bucks....

if i'm reading this right, that was not your tank n00b!!
you bought it and chased it off the runway? that sounds like you were trying to get in it as it was dropped off by the cargo plane. if the other player was able to get in it, then it was his tank, not yours! there is a 30sec delay when purchased where no one but the owner can get in. if he got in then you jumped in afterward, it was his tank, not yours and you owe him a new flame tank and an apology.

*********************************
well, I was under that impression as well (that someone else couldn't get into my newly purchased tank). It rolled to the opposite side of the runway, so I had a long way to run before I could get it to it. I know it was mine because my credits went down 800 and I got "purchase request granted" when I bought it. It was the next vehicle to drop off the cargo plane.

I don't really know how he got in...but he did, and he didn't buy it, and he should have at least asked. (also, I was an engy and I was hitting it with my repair gun all the way (claiming it as mine...))
