I'm a dedicated sniper. I always feel deeply complemented when the other team hits me with an orbital. It saves the lives of a bunch of team members and verifies that I'm doing my job well.
Sending trashy e-mails is very unsportsmanlike but as you may know, trashy e-mails fill snipers' in boxes daily. Far more than the CQC guys. Again, when I get one I feel deeply complemented. I save the good ones.
Counter-sniping with a basic sniper rifle is a challenge and I'm glad you can do it well. But you can't bring down a proto fatty stacked with armor mods with one. What about running targets? Good sniping is more about taking out hard to kill infantry, breaking momentum, hacking, reporting enemy movements and covering objectives than it is about counter-sniping.
Unfortunately the red line is a fact. I happen to think that the whole field should be open for play. It would make matches end much faster once a team started to lose badly, though. Do I use the redline? When it is necessary. Do I move outside the redline? I spend most of every game outside the redline. You get more kills that way and it is the best way to avoid counter-snipers.

You are laughing a sniper that basically forced you to waste an orbital on one person? Not only that you just said he kept killing your team, pretty sure that's what he is supposed to be doing. I laugh when it resorts to that, means they have done their job pissing off the enemy team. I can tell you never used a Thales, he is far back for a reason. Good luck trying to kill a well equipped sniper with a basic sniper rifle by yourself, a skilled one will simply move after the first hit and attack from a different angle and be back at full health. A good sniper never makes the team a man short, he makes the other team hide in fear. I've topped the leader-boards while sniping plenty of times if I'm not just calling out positions. You may think they are useless but come across a skilled one and tell them they aren't in the fight as they slaughter your team.

I've used Thales before in beta, but I wanted a commander role in my corp so switched when the beta respec happened. And no the sniper didn't hold us back lol the red line did. And I don't feel like punishing the other team further cuz my whole squad got 20+ kills . So I used the OB on the thalejust to make him lose one right before the game ends. And that's when the hate mail starts .i found it ironic that he called me a ***** like if he expected me to run into the red and kill him before the timer ends, I killed him cuz he failed to support his team. For every kill he got ( hiding and out of danger) his team lost 12 clones trying to recover the obj. I admit that there r a few good snipers out there but most don't care about whether their team wins or loses , they just want to kill and increase their KD |

If that was the case in the match you're talking about, then he was doing his job.
Don't blame a person who likes to snipe for doing his job.

I don't know why people seem to care about saving up an OB. You're holding the objectives. The match timer is counting down. Save your OB in case the team suddenly gets inspired and reverse their massive losses?
For me, I'd think you'd deal with a threat with whatever is at your disposal. I guess its not like people bring tanks to gun fights |
