Kill steal very annoying word always for rouge

[Matsku]

Ouh, that's what "ks" means!! Kill Steal! When I play as a rogue - someone sometimes says "ks" to me, and I just simply say "Thanks! ".. I always thought "ks" was like "gf" in some other language Now i know better, but i think i still continue thanking them
I have a lil problem with the whole ctf... I used to enjoy and have fun while running around with a bunch of strangers and killing But nowdays almost everytime i play ctf, i come across these "overachievers" (not sure if that's a word even) who say "noob" or "weak" after every kill :/ I think thats just rude! I'm sure they were once the ones who got killed.. And all hell is loose if someone says "weak" to them.. Games are for fun, right??
That was out of topic, please dont slay me

Well, if you are having good group teamplay then fine. But if 3 players are in the spawn room beating the crap out of one player on the other side, they don't need a 4th player to join in just to get the kill. "kill stealing" is when your help is not needed but you come just to get the easy kill.

People whining about KS just makes me laugh.

I was in a game last night, doing shuttle runs to pick up flags and deliver them. I don't even bother slowing down to attack mobs, just a couple of skills (Aimed Shot, Nox Bolt, Shadow Piercer) and proceed to flag room. Usually, this triple-combo is enough to kill most players, so I got dozens of "KS", "Don't KS noob" and other garbage. I simply replied, "Then kill faster because I didn't even slow down."

I do encounter a few exceptionally lippy players. Guys who constantly call me noob, or 1v1 me noob....you know....those types. So, in these cases, I will actually take a detour to make sure that I keep killing them. I actually had one guy (won't say the name) who was on my team and kept calling me out, calling me noob, saying Red/Blue get Kalizza. I told him join the other team, I'll be happy to kill you too. Guess what, he did! So I farmed the heck out of him until he rage quit. Made my night :-)

The only KS that I see are those who go spawn farming, or when someone calls out 1v1, meet me in flag room, and some dude goes out of his way to kill them while they are waiting for the challenger. Or those who kill guys who are obviously AFK. That is just low class tactics and regardless of your KDR, is not indicative of Pro-anything...well, maybe pro-jerks.

I tell them when they learn how to throw me a heal when I am sitting at 1/32 of health I will then decide. Nothing more frustrating than sitting there at 1/32 health when a tank or mage walks by and never throws one out.

I call it either teamwork or skill stealing

If you inflict mortal damage on a player he dies.... Kill stealing is a term people use to justify the sour feeling one has when he is inadaquate in combat.

"Noob KS!" is indeed a term more commonly used by players with inadequate skill. Although not always is a Kill Steal the result of a player's low damage output.

I can crit nicely with my Windmill, even up to 1000 damage (I do not use the snare/crit 'mechanism'), and yet still get ks-ed by a passing Aimed or even just a Rifle auto.

However, this doesn't give us an excuse for constant flaming and abuse. I hate any players that go "noob stop ks" or "ks. nice."

Kill steals exist in almost every competitive-styled gameplay that ever existed. Even ourselves, the so called "KS haters", kill steal frequently, no matter whether it was intentional or not.

Learning to live with it is the way to go.

If you think about it, it equals out. You kill steal and you get your kills stolen.
