Killshooter/PNG solution?

[Ouch]

Just had a wierd thought.

Killshooter is there for a reason.  It's to prevent idiots from ruining the game.  But it's side effects are pretty drastic (bombs from a bomber at 10K, kills a friendly, so bomber dies, no worry about cutting off someone shooting at a target, etc).

I kinda like the AW 2-kills of friendly, no ammo for 24 hours.  But that can still happen where an accident occurs, with 2 friendlies getting whacked (or 2 friendlies dive in front of your guns, :-(

How about implementing a command called (for lack of a better term) .png

You can only issue it against the LAST FRIENDLY THAT SHOT YOU DOWN!

If it's an accident, you don't type .png
If it's your own fault, you shouldn't type .png.

but if it's someone being an idiot, you do type it.

If a person gets png'ed twice in a day, 24 hours of no ammo.

How does that sound?

ouch out

Not a bad idea, but I like killshooter better.  In fact, I think I'm gonna go shoot myself down right now!

Ya, make sure you HO yourself, though, Eskimo. I hear it's much less painful.

There's a problem with that suggestion.

Someone shoots you down, so you issue the .png command and tell your mate to do the same........so he's got no ammo.  Ok, now what?  Some bright spark figures he and his mate can do it for everyone all at once.  

It'll happen......some avacado will change sides with a mate and .png everyone on that side just before they log off for the night......
