Ban Walking With the Dead Attacks
by Moondog

At OP:Bad Blood and a few games I've been at, a player did what can be called a 'Walking with the Dead" attack. He walked closely behind a group of dead players going to respawn and used them to hide his approach to enemy positions. Those that do this argue that it's 'fair' but I disagree as it's unsportsmanlike, dishonorable, and quite simply cheating for a number of reasons.

1. Dead Players don't technically exist on the field. Those may argue that it's the responsibility of the enemy players to ignore the dead players and 'see' the live player. But why are they hiding behind Dead Players in the first place if they don't consciously recognize their presence? It's hypocritical.

2. It's just as dishonorable as hiding behind a field judge IMHO.

3. Dead players are still blocking them from BB's. This as lame as using their rain poncho as a BB shield.

'Walking with the Dead' should be discouraged and outright disallowed in games. Your thoughts?
