Best Request?

What is the "best" serious requests you've gotten as COM?
I just came off a game, gave up actually, got tired of my team, the straw that broke the camels back so to speak was this:
"COM, I fell down a hole, can you get me up"
(The "hole" was one of the vents leading out of red room btw).
Earlier:
"I NEED HEALTH!" repeated 4-5 times.
A guy standing ON one of our FOUR infantry portals in base, with NO equipment and no-one else in the spawn que.
I'm thinking this game would be better as a single-player RTS <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Comments
(he was other side of the map alone with HA/hmg)
Oh, and he kept asking that about 5 minutes.
Then he got pwned by couple skulks:
"Com, why didn't you weld me? I asked that for several minutes !!! YOU NUB, EJECT"
And well, then there is these other classic's:
*Game starts*, "give me jp/hmg now !!!"
I as why and he says "So I can build these structures"
For christs sake does anyone ever read the manual?

Most people I've spoken to online (in reference to single player games) DON'T read manuals. Hence why games like Caesar III took to rewarding players who did by putting a load of helpful strategies & tips in their readme.txt! I read them. I like them <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Everything has to be learn at the hard way....

One time I joined a server I never played on before (there were no IPS so I coudnt spawn), one of the rines asked the comm (not me) If he could turn on some music, after he turned on some nice hiphop everybody started moonwalking in base till some skulks entered base and killed all rines, the skulks were like "nubs... PWNED!" not knowing were just fooling around, listnin to music <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

How do you expect us to get ammo then? Waste comm res by getting him to drop us a clip each?
"You have one already, the lmg that you start with"
"That's cheating!"

lol, no but when you have 400 people screwing the armoury when the phase gate elsewhere is going down, well, let's just say if they implement the blowing up structures idea, I'll be turning friendly fire ON <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
But the best I've had so far is the immortal:
"OMGzor COMMANDOE WE NEED TURRENTS IN BAES NOW!!!!!11!!1!! TURRENTS PWZOR T3H ALINES!"
Marine: COMM, gimme mines!!!
Yea, that'll do a TON of good for us. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
::Aliens have 2 hives, with 4 fades and 2 lerks pounding our base::
Marine:: COMM, I need a shotgun!
In this case, I just totally ignore them.
::Marines have 1 res tower and aprox. 0 res::
Marine: Gimme jp/hmg comm!
Comm: We have no res and no res towers.
Marine: Gimme jp/hmg comm!
Comm: Go hold some res nodes.
Marine: nub comm.
***Marine has left the game.***
That annoys me the most. Just because we have the structures doesn't mean we can necessarily afford the technology. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
Me: Why?
Marine: So I can go comm and get res while you build up base.
Me: Have you ever played this game before?
Marine: Well done genius.
Need i go on?
While humping an armory at full health and no enemy in sight :X
oh heres another one and this i thought was freaking hilarious: comm build a bunker. LOL!!!!!
On a sidenote...
Oh and one of my friends that I play with regularly is usually alien, but when he goes marine watch out. "Commander, can I have some mines?" Once he gets them, he puts them in the oddest places that have absolutely nothing to do with defense or offense. Like on ceilings, corners, and as a comm myself, it annoys (<-- hint to who the person is) me to no end!!!! The most infuriating part of it is the number of kills he gets off of them...

What - like 0?
he didn't get the joke.
he dropped turrets.
and one of the alien players politely informed me that its "turret" not "turrent"
satire is dead.

was that you? I go by Cthulhu in game.
Comm: <ignores marine, working hard on something important>
Marine: Gun, plz
Comm: Quit asking for a gun, I'm busy. Besides, you have the 2 best **** guns in the game by default!
Marine: Gun, plz
Comm: No, if you ask for a gun again I'm never giving you any equip you little brat!!!! $^%$##@!!!!!
Marine: Gun plz
*Comm has left the game*
comm'ing is like being a goalkeeper: if your team wins u get no gratitude, if they loose its all your fault...
