I know exactly what you mean, my biggest hatred at the moment is servers with FF on. Last night on Dragon Valley I laid some AT mines around some choak points and 2 mins later I was punished for 4 team kills? Is it really that difficult to see the big red x on the screen that points them out. Was It my fault that some idiot wasn't looking where they were going?

Personnally I wouldn't punish someone for my own stupidity, especially if it was an accident. Perhaps some gamers are just morons.
There's two problems here:

- people that play on servers with FF off then go play a different server and don't realise that FF is on.  They don't realise that the big red skulls will kill them on this server.

- people that don't have their localization files set to show what they were TK'ed with.  If you have it set up right, you'll know you drove over an AT mine but if you don't, for all you know you just got shot by a teammate in a tank.

IMO EA need to set the localization files to show TK weapons by default.  It'd save a bunch of punishes from tk by mines and clays.

If im roadkilled because I didnt' watch my step I forgive and say SORRY. cause he IS getting the -2 points for my stupidity. If an APC comes around the corner at full speed and runs me over I expect he'd say sorry.

anyways, I never punish unless your looking at me and take a clean shot. I do expect people to apologize for their screw-ups though.

No if you get TK he get -4 points not -2, he get -2 if he just damage you. Yeah hate these people, expect you to stop when you driving in full speed while he jump right in front me me. Second a driver yesterday told me to get in the car, the only problem was that he was friking aiming to drive over me with the friking car in full speed.

Having been on both sides of the roadkill/teamkill issue, I punish for obvious stupidity like I'm asking for a ride and they come straight at me, but don't slow down to give me a chance to get in.  I forgive for things liking getting run over when the vehicile is backing up to avoid enemy fire.  (read the bridge at the train wreck in karkand).  I certainly hate getting -4 pts for a tk, and unless another team player is being a total noob I hate causing other players to get -4 for a tk. 

I do agree with the poster who said the localization files should be defaulted to tell you what you were teamkilled with.  A lot of times I have either punished someone unfairly or forgave them for blantant stupidity that did deserve a punish. 

If you are near or behind a vehicle in combat with enemy vehicles you should not punish when your teammates backs over you.  He can't see exactly where you are and stuff happens.  Like the other guy said though if there's no enemy around then the vehicle driver should use some caution and common sense.

I actually got in some good servers the other night i only hit one person, said sorry and he didnt punish which was nice, i watch out for ppl as much as i can but like the rest of you have said its not always easy when you come flying round a corner and someone's there or you get the noob that just likes killing him self infront of your tank.

As for people getting bored with a vehicle that is quite funny really, there was a guy i was watching yesterday as i was on the phone but in the game at the main base and this guy kept comin back for the tank, when it got to the point he would get to the battle and die straight away he gave up and started trying his luck in an APC insted

Well that’s a bit unfair. What if the Tkiller is unable to say sorry @ the time ie. he/she is flying a jet and is in a middle of a dog fight, or if he/she has died right after a TK?

The problem is three fold:

1) Majority of drivers do NOT stop to pick up passengers !
      In this case, if I run infront of his vehicle, STOP, yell "I need a ride", and he PLOWS through me like I was on the other team ! Yeah.. I punish. His fault = punish
      However, if I do NOT have time to get in front of him, and have to "trail" after him for a long time, and I miss my "hitting 'e' timing", then no, I do not punish. My fault = no punish

2) Majority of drivers do not look where they're going. they dont look at their minimap (so why even have it there, buddy ?), so when they get repaired, they dont even know by whom or where, they're just happy, and then they go squish "hey, engy... Are you ok down there ?" I dont punish for that.. but I DO get annoyed, I mean how hard can it be to look at your minimap to find out where your engy is ?

3) As opposed to #2, the PLAYERS often dont look on their minimaps EITHER, they just dont SEE that hummer or APC sporting 150 MPH coming down the same road they want to cross. Again, if I get hit, I dont punish, but I do get annoyed. Though if I'm DRIVING, and someone runs infront of me and punishes, then I will go have a TK fest the rest of the round !

lmao! that would be quite funny although most ppl would probably start looking round wandering what it is, i would just turn the tank around and drive everywhere backwards to make sure ppl hear me coming.

I don't play any flight maps, so that's not a problem.
And if he/she is dead then you can always say sorry in the chat, I do so I don't see why other people cant.
Ofcourse sometimes I'll be nice and forgive even if they don't say sorry.
But when you mostly play warlord and you get little nubs running up and down laying claymore in the palace when your trying to have a proper fight, and most of the time the claymore tks you, you get kinda pissy at people and punish them unless you know them.

Proper fight?  Hell all people do there is spam nades and claymores.  Nades are just as bad if not worse than the claymores.

Last night I was capping Mosque on Warlord...i was laying prone infront of the flag firing at somebody when this huge shadow came over the top of me blocking my view / preventing the kill.

I was like WTF, then i realised i was underneath a tank right between the tracks. I was pissed that he stole my kill but happy i didn't get squished.. If i was then i probably would have punished as i see no excuse for driving over some1 laying in the open, capping a flag and firing. Having said that i only ever punish retards that don't apologise for their fuck ups!

So was the driver skilled or did i just get lucky? The noise from the RPK must have drowned out the tank cause i never heard it coming.

Jet/heli whores, nothing better than the noob ejecter (M95). However i've only used it once, when this one fucknut decided to just sit in an A-10 on the runway for 3 minutes.
He was probably stat padding; trying to get the A10 time.  He prolly can't fly for more then 30 seconds without dying so he sat on the runway.  lol
