A wise man once said when playing CTF:

 

"Never Kill an opposing turtle while it is on it's back, it can hurt no one."

 

Unless you're running an isida operation, were those sitting ducks on their backs become great healing points :) In clanwars, if there's an isida nearby, we usually try to flip the enemy's tanks rather than kill them so the healer can heal themselves.

I am not sure if you mean your own team mates or opposing team units? I am guessing that you mean if they are on their sides you try to flip them on their back, and let isidia heal up if necessary. I think that it usually better done by another isidia anyway.

 

It would seem to me in CTF that if the opposing team has a team member on their back with no capability of shooting you would want to keep him there. It effectively gives you a one man advantage while you wait for him to self-destruct and respawn. Killing him just adds another defender to your attack.

Desire is the source of suffering. Desire neither the Marshal nor the flag. (I am Buddhist, not Taoist)

 

"Those who restrain desire, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained".

William Blake

 

I'm... a human being and to desire is human nature.

...and to desire is human nature.

And, hence, why there is suffering. I would rather follow the Buddha than Mr. Blake.

 

yin-yang ? good-evil? life-death? In a word: balance!

 

We all need it in a strange sick way even though we miss it only when it's gone.

It's written in our DNA, it's within us ever since we got down from those trees, it's the way we ARE.

Some find it hard to admit it, some struggle hard to oppress it while some just let loose.

 

I rather fallow my inner thoughts. They have always lead me on a good path.

 

PS

I'm Christian (not that this matter in anyway).

I prefer you just make some stuff up that sounds philosophical. This is supposed to be part wisdom part comedy. Come on now people.

 

Koolwalky has the right idea here.

I thought mine had the right touch of comedic philosophy.

Then what's wrong with mine ? )

OK :lol: I admit. Me and NoblePlateOne were a little off-topic here.

But come on...all the things we said applies here also.
