Funniest TK of my life. It was in Peru, with the team colors as close as possible, and the TK's running rampant. I usually got killed because I have the tendency to make sure it is an enemy before I shoot.

I see one of my team-mates late in the round heading down the area with all the crates. I follow him to the beginning of the slope, where he notices me. He begins to run backward and fire while making towards the crates. I try to appear like a friend by not firing and moving away. I am screaming, "Oh no, he thinks I'm an enemy! How can I convine him!" He kills me anyway. I laughed my head off, and told him it was no problem. It took me the rest of the round to recover from laughing..

In the same game, another person joined in late (making it around 2v2 or something small like that.) I ran into him and shot him...

"The TK's that annoy me are when me and a team mate look at each other from a distance, and i decide that he's a friendly and don't shoot. After examining me a little longer, my bright buddy will put a couple rounds in me, and hesitate when he hears the "Friendly fire!" voice. This only phases him for a moment, and shortly after, he finishes off with his stupidity."

ROFL.

I agree that Friendly Fire should be anonymous, I mean in real life who would know but you? The rest of the team would assume the enemy got the guy you TKed or something.

TKing is so frowned upon that mere accidents will get you verbally assaulted for the rest of your time on the server. I consider it a proteciton policy against accidents.

Oh yea, and the funniest TK I had was the first time I was playing INF, and this guy was calling me a newbie, so I snuck up behind him and knifed him down. He wasn't very happy.

This is another reason all that dodging crap will hopefully stop.
Most of the time the circle strafing idiots "dodge" into my surpressive fire.
I garantee you, stay kneeled close to me, and we all will be better off. :D

Just to point something out for people:

In INF, Team Killing is a part of life. In almost any game of this nature, Friendly Fire is going to occur. And, in a game where a single bullet can do you in, that means a TK. It's going to happen to even the best of us. A quick apology is common courtesy, but I wouldn't get all uppity if someone is too busy to stop and type "Sorry" during the heat of battle.

Hey! I didn't know everyone was out to get me after a TK!

(I know - terrible joke... Don't know why I even bothered to post it)
