then you belong to the dumb-downed combat crowd where you feel skulks should rush open areas.
just because combat is a quick fix doesn't mean you should turn off your brain. a skulk is still a skulk and should be parasiting and ambushing or <b>skulking</b>, if you will.
you don't have to be a good player to realise that skulks should be meeting marines around corners and vent openings.
if you are lagging behind in experience just camp a vent in the central part of the map; shared experience should beef you up.
Combat thrives on stupidity to get the XP flowing.
How boring was competitive combat to watch? It was probably the worst NS viewing experience of my life. Sensible players recognize that not dying is a core aspect of Combat and thus do not rush so recklessly, regardless of their ability to respawn with all their weapons or lifeform.
There is a plugin that gives you xp for doing damage. Think Necrophix had it at some point. Always gives you your first level if you solo kill 1 person.

why the hell has noone metioned bhoping or side stepping, or indeed wallhopping. In the average co game an sg is a peice of piss to solo as a naked skulk, parasite while bhoping at them then sidestep while biting. Or side step just our of the sgs range so it trys to shoot you while your mates bhop in and own him. Where the issue? But on second thought i guess it is public co. (no offense meant)

The closest applicable rule is "- If you wish to emphasize your point, use a bold font. Obnoxious use of oversized fonts and headings will not allowed."
If we start seeing annoying colors, we'll pass out warnings/other as appropriate. I'm not going to worry too much about white.
And now, back to our regularly scheduled program. Thanks.
