Kind of inspired by my last post. would like all of your takes on this.
part of me thinks vflags should be countered. another part of me thinks....no way should some poor guy get countered just because some idiot noob vflagged to him. but then again, maybe the recipient of the vflag should verbally decline to accept the flag and kill the vflagger. although that would invariably lead to PGE from the vflagger. then again, a PGE from a vflagger probably won't hurt you much. i'm rambling. do you guys think vflags should be countered? |

at 11:25 AM, Wednesday January 6, 2010 EST i think a mod should write a blog post about vflags. its paramount to the community.
...is that the correct or incorrect way to use the word paramount? |

at 11:27 AM, Wednesday January 6, 2010 EST Paramount was used correctly; however, "its" should have been given an apostrophe.

at 11:29 AM, Wednesday January 6, 2010 EST VFlags that are accepted foolishly should be immediately countered, such as a 1st place player accepting a flag from a guy who can easily be eaten and dom raped. Far too often the first person to flag ends up being the guy who gets 2nd......in essence making it a 1/2 truce. This type of flag should be countered IMO.
However, if 2nd vflags to 1st and they are both pretty big already, you may have no choice other than to fight for 2nd or flag 3rd. I just wish vflags would go away... |

at 11:31 AM, Wednesday January 6, 2010 EST I think i agree kdicemod.
although it sucks to be rolling along in first and have some tiny guy in 5th vflag to you and get countered by a 2nd, 3rd and 4th just because 5th is a timid dumbass. new question to you kdicemod, what do you do when you're in 1st and 5th vflags to you? just immediately decline it and pwn the noob? |

at 11:40 AM, Wednesday January 6, 2010 EST you think about far to seldom events imho.
If it suits you bringing down first counter any vflag. if not keep your mouth shut. keeping your mouth shut if talking won't help improve your position you genereally should throw yor keyboard far away. |

And please, call me thrax. |
