So that they can give thier killer the chance to kill them a second time?  It's very nice of them IMO.

Chute Engagement Policies

Although it's soooooo tempting, a virtual air warrior should restrain himself from popping chutes, since it only means the jumper will return more quickly. But if the situation would give the jumper an opportunity to spy, he must be eliminated. An exception to the above rule is if he is close to the ground so time isn't a big issue, he's all yours.

Few things about this game fascinates me more than the chute shoot whines. Make no mistake about it, in AW chutes were fair game with whines aplenty. It's just that some dweebs agreed amongst each other that it shouldn't be done. Same thing about calling bingo ammo and expect free passage back to base... arping all the way  =o)

Good point... in a non-strategic sort of way.

greigo... are you by chance from england or canada?   there is a certain lack of humor and tendency to be anal about you..

shooting chutes requires skill and relieves boredom... shooting the chute of the type of person who would actually bail is very satisfying.    

As a rule...  I never shoot a chute untill it is allmost down so that the person has the longest time to reflect on his wussieness.
