Sounds like a admin got butt hurt because you were tearing it up and he got his six handed to him,if EA didnt want people to go prone then they wouldn't have implemented that option in the game.

Since when is prone spamming a bannable offense?

I was playing on Taraba Quarry (I can't remember the server name) and proceeded to single-handedly take out 8 guys in a row who were all firing at me and then got banned with the following message:

BANNING NYTE - Excessive Proning + Crouching + Sprinting, take your exploits elsewhere


WTF?  Since when was strafe-prone-crouch-strafeOtherWay-prone-crouch repeat considered an exploit?  Sure I may have done it like 10 times in 10 seconds but that is no way an exploit.

If ANYONE thinks that using prone-crouch tactic is an exploit, they might as well go play a Fisher Price game.  They are the same people that ruined dolphin diving (And my Knife KD ratio as a result).


Anyone else agree?

I do it all of the time. I dont care, adapt or play counterstrike, no prone moves. I think they banned you for the bad techno music in your sniper videos.

I don't "prone spam" and am never close enough to a target to care about them doing it either but on the occasions that I am they get a nade lobbed at them and shot if they run.  Anyway, it does sound like you put one too many holes in a buddy of the admin or the admin themself.

This however is not the lamest thing I have seen people kick/ban for.... getting kicked for "Camping" in the crane as a sniper on Olman was the lamest thing to date.... allthough it was fun

In the end, at least the server HAD an admin around.

I think prone spamming is pretty lame.... whats the point in exploiting when you could just play like a normal person..... rely on aiming, reflexes and tactics.

Personaly i try to make it more like in real life - for my own enjoyment (yes i know its a game) i find it alot more fun...not doing unrealistic things to get kills.

Its alot more satisfying killing someone properly

#

thats my opinion. . .



EDIT


: one more thing.... "volx" one word.....sad?            PLAY PROPERLY!  i mean the prone thing isnt as bad but running round with C4 (pre 1.2) i mean...get real....just abit more real
he has mostly stopped now but i think he is the most lame player i know / have seen on bf2 (excluding Tk'ers)

Volx and this other dude named ropei are pretty lame. Volx only used C4 and ropei only uses claymores. They aren't very good with other weapons, and now Volx just holds ammo boxes out all the time.

I like challenging ppl like that to a game of CS:S. "wtf i cant prone spam and dolphin dive".

You should know better than that.  You are supposed to run directly at your enemy.  By moving around you are only making it harder for them to kill you and that is unacceptable. 

   People like that make me fucking sick.  They whined so hard they got DD nerfed already and they still whine.  If you cant hit a guy jumping and proning,  you have no reason to be playing A FIRST PERSON SHOOTER.  There are games for people with zero skill,  its called World of Warcraft.

One server. Look at the rules, if you don't like 'em, unload resources and move on.

Easier than getting banned, eh?

Heh, that's just like an admin of the Moongamers' server standing in front of the hotel flag on Karkand.  Didnt move, I fire ONE bullet and kill him.  Kicks me for "spawn raping the hotel with armor".  I <3 stupid admins.

I guess I should stand in one spot, not move, and shoot.   Because god forbid, if I move, I'll get banned for "move-spamming".

People like him would never survive in a TWL or CAL match.

The problem I see with "prone spamming" is when you do your little roll thing you don't seem to be able to take any damage.  The other problem is during this roll your screen doesn't move at all. 
If your screen rotated 360 degrees like your player did and you could actually take damage, there wouldn't be a problem with this.  If I'm right on the lack of damage and you were rolling along continuously because you know you can't take damage while doing this, then you deserve the banning you recieved (which was probably temporary in the first place).

I think I'll test this out tonight since I don't know for sure if I'm right about the lack of damage.

I'm pretty positive you take damage during that little roll animation. I kill people all the time during that roll... I usually aim at the middle of the body on the average infantry, and am always prepared to  aim down if they go prone. I've killed many people during the prone animation.

This game will be reduced to bitch slapping in no time. After move spamming is gone, we'll only be able to take one step at a time and no jumping, crouching, prone, looking at an enemy, thinking of what is was like to shoot someone, and the only vehicles in the game will be bumper cars.

Like I said, Fisher Price.  They should at least make divisions for this game so players can fit in the right group when playing:

Pro Division: Anything goes
Fisher Price Division: Nothing goes

prone, jumping, spamming is not a punishable offense, if the other players are to stupid to adapt or learn. then they deserve to die.....its part of the game...USE IT...

it sounds just as dumb as saying in CS. THE AWP IS THE NOOB TUBE< LEARN SOME SKILL YOU NOOB!...sounds ridiculous, adapt to your environment.

If the view did exactly what your animation did this game would be a whole lot more interesting.
