True, but should we call not criticise these players for their bad strategy? That's what you're doing if you call them a point whore. It's not exactly the best way to do it, because people don't respond well to insults, but the point still stands.

They may win one game with your team, due to poor opposition, but they could just as easily contribute to your losing the next, if you're facing better opponents.

Yet it seems to happen almost every game I play these days. I get tired of explaining why they're wrong in-game and just figured it'd be easier if there was a nice publicly viewable thread I could point them to


I don't mean to criticise your thread as a whole. I agree with everything that you said in your first post. I'm only pointing out that there is a legitimate reason to call someone out for their bad teamplay... although progably not for insulting them by comparing them to a prostitute, LOL. I guess the kind of players I described are not much of a problem in the clan games that you play, since you wouldn't have them on your team in the first place. And presumably, if you were in a good clan, you wouldn't be playing opposition like that. They are frustrating to play with on public servers though. People who play on pubs aren't so interested in the competitive side, but many of us still wish to promote good team play. It's more fun that way.
