I don't believe everyone should snipe and I believe 3 or more sniper's on a team can be detrimental to a team as a whole.
BUT its can be healthy for a team to have 1 or 2 real snipers on there team.
That actually know what they are doing and know the hot spots.
The psychological effect on an unsuspecting death. Is more then enough to snipe.
Thats why there is so much QQ from infantry on real snipers.
They cant handle the psychological effect it has. This plays a real effect in real war as well.
Not only that, a sniper in a good spot is the best point defense mechanic in the entire game. A good sniper can relay far better intel than any scout or active scanner can ever hope to accomplish. And that's just the surface of sniping. I believe you should make a forum post to point out the significance of a sniper role, to the general community. In Dust-Uni one of my colleges was a sniper instructor and would point out these points. Its very elementary.
Lately, I've tended to take the role of these sniperphobes worst nightmare. Which is to say that I snipe solely for my own enjoyment. Apparently these vanilla assault tryhards are settled with hating on snipers no matter what so I just go ahead and stop worrying about making the game fun for them and make it fun for me. I am useful if I further make you cry about snipers on the forum. HeyGǪ beer!

I've even started carrying a sniper rifle on my tanker. Some ppl drive a tank with a heavy with a forge. I carry a sniper rifle so I can hop out and scan the field. If It's too much activity or just a redline then I can easily just sit back and snipe.
Anyone else drive a tank with one hand and a beer in the other? Maybe that's why I lose so many tanks.

On one hand, I want the channel to be open to the public where everyone can join without needing an invite; but on the other hand, I can't even make a thread asking what the name should be without anti-sniper extremists bashing it.
I'd hate to see what would happen if the channel was overridden with these people.
Honestly, your best bet is to create a chat outside the game and only invite ppl that have made it clear that they are snipers on other posts or at least it will be easier to ban griefers.
