Thread: Knife Trolling

  1. Unhappy Knife Trolling

    So two days in a row now, the opposing team on several maps have all decided to 'knife troll.' In case you aren't aware of what that means, basically it just means they play the entire game with nothing but a knife. A single player doing this - no big deal. Half the opposing team and it completely sucks the fun out of the map and the server if you're the team getting trolled. It basically gives one team a HUGE advantage for a single player to win and forces the other team to play a certain tactical way, i.e. hanging back and avoiding getting knifed at all costs.

    The purpose of this post is to determine whether or not this behavior is acceptable when perpetrated by an entire group (and yes, it's consistently one or two or three people who decide this is a good way to spend their time). If it is, I'll simply leave when the motherfuckers join and decide to play this way, because it ruins the map entirely for me (if I'm on the 'wrong' team). If this is something I can use my admin powers to discourage, that would be great.

    I totally understand this is a whining, bitching and moaning post. But it's frustrating to come home, fire up the game during my limited playtime window and find a server full of dicks who have nothing better to do than ruin someone's day/steal someone's win on a silly CS:S server.

    Only one team is trying to knife. It's not that the team being knifed CAN'T win, it's that they're forced to play a specific way in order to win. Or, more dastardly, certain folks may target individuals on nade level, making it extremely difficult to actually win the game.

    When I get on nade level ten times on a map, only to be foiled every single time by three people knife trolling me, which then results in one of their teammates eventually getting the win because I simply can't, well, it's pretty much bullshit in my opinion.

    it may be frustrating but, you cant tell people how to play. if a team decides they want to go all knife than let them. the opposing team may have a hard time to win, but a little caution will get you easy kills.

    If you were a beautiful sound in the echos all around, I'd be your harmony.

    seems less like trolling and more like a viable strategy. A douchey one, but a strategy nonetheless.
    I hit Brett right in the feels.

    Nah, it's straight up trolling. The perpetrators would readily admit it and they do it for no other reason than their own amusement and to fuck with/hinder the other team. As I've stated, it wouldn't be such a big deal if they weren't all following one another and working together to ruin shit and make winning next to impossible for the knifer/nader on the team opposite them.

    I guess you could view it as a strategy to get one of their teammates the win, but that would be collusion, and I'm fairly certain that's against the rules. They're not colluding to win though, they're just assisting each other in ruining the map, basically.

    To give you a specific example (and honestly, what led me to this post), deagle was played today. 50%+ of the CTs were knifing, Ts were playing normal. Ts figured out they were getting knifed every round, so they started being cautious. This basically gave a player on the CT team free reign to steamroll them, as they were looking for knifers, not expecting someone to rush them. Said player was basically on nade level while the entire T team hadn't even gotten to scout (I think one person had gotten to scout). Even if someone on the T team was able to get to nade, there were five people running together through the maze, train knifing anyone they came across. If you've played any amount of GG or deagle then you know a knife train is pretty much impossible to avoid, especially when you're trying to knife/nade.

    But I digress. Owns is right, can't tell people how to play. I guess it just means that when people have time to waste fucking around, trolling and being little bitches I just won't play. :/

    Wait, are you complaining about a strategy that actively encourages the other team to camp?

    Tastes like your moms kisses.
