Today I encountered the most hostile "anti-pointwhoring" experience in my entire 3 years of playing Ren.

n00bstories btw. Islands. 45 mins on the clock. All buildings intact when I joined. But Nod had field with arts pounding Ref/WF. I teched them for a while. Seeing that a good siege was already going on and that it was adequately teched, I got a light tank to take some slack for the arts who were getting hammered by Meds and Mammoths. So I fight for almost 10 mins in my light tank but a Med rush kills my tank as well as many arts.

So I get a art. By the time I get back to siege, GDI ref is destroyed. WF is sieged and destroyed. Arts move up behind WF and hold for a while. I stayed behind the rock and shot at Barr. All of a sudden 2 prevously hidden Mammoth's come out and take out the arts (I am the only art left there). The Mammoth's retreat back behind Barr.

At this point, Nod has points advantage. Rush after rush of Nod vehicles get slaughterd by GDI; the 2 Mammoth's and GDI players had got Havocs, Mobius, and PICs. With no siege to hit Barr, GDI takes points lead.

With the clock ticking down I decide to siege Barr no matter what to get back pointslead for Nod. I rise up the score list. The first person in the whole game at that point with the most points (he was also in Nod) had about 6000+ points. When I overtook him in the points, he threw the most reckless bitchfit I never before seen in Renegade. So greedy was this guy that he starts talking shit about me. He says I am a pointwhore blah blah.

At this point in the game, I am being hit with Havocs and had to pull back so many times behind the rock to repair. Probably no less than 30 times the whole game, I had to retreat back.

Then it becomes serious. He gets a stank and waits behind my Art as I hit Barr.

Now when I retreated for repairs and got out, this dude opens fire with his stank on my art! I get back in. I instantly knew what it was about. When I got out to repair, he opens fire again. In n00bstories, you cannot lock your vehicles. Binding is automatic. I know in other servers you can lock and this prevents idiots from getting in or destroying your vehicle. So I try to get away from him and to the island closest to Nod base, but I got spotted by a havoc and thanks to the friendly damage from the idiot's stank, my arty gets destroyed.

He !noobs me with the comment "useless point whoring". He then rushes Barr with his stank to get back the points lead from me! I wonder who the fuck is the pointswhore here.

I get a new arty and go back to siege. This time, he rams his stank behind my arty so when I took ramjet fire, I was unable to retreat back behind the rock quickly. I was like "who is blocking me"...and I see this idiot with his stank. He wanted my arty to die. Anyway, I managed to escape behind the rock.

Absolutely ridiculous behavior.

When there were 3 mins left on the clock with no signs of GDI base destruction, GDI had 48,838. And Nod had 53,088 points. Take away all my 10,775 points from my "pointswhoring" and GDI would have probably won on points if the game ended right then. It just shows why WW made it so there are 3 ways to win the game (base, points, ped) as insurance if 1 or 2 options fails.

Literally a last minute Nod nuke/ vehicle rush combo kills the barr. I don't know if it was the nuke or all our combined vehicles that gave us base destruction.

AFAIK, I helped the team with my art, hit the Barr, shot at the infantry, and attacked the 2 Mammoth's when they revealed themselves just to have them retreating behind Barr for repairs.

Pretty much the moral of the story is this; don't just assume that a person is "pointshwhoring" and only gives a damn about his place in the ladder/points if you see him in a arty/mlrs. You don't know that! This mind reading SOB that tried to mess me up did not know my true intentions. So instead of complaining and being so greedy, either tech the arts, grab one yourself or else just STFU.

ps: all this in a smurf nick btw...so much for ladder points! woo hoo!
