Answered Shooting at a prop that a player Carries = T baiting?

The player is carrying the prop, therefore, being in close range. It's t-baiting since essentially because you're hitting something that is in close proximity to someone and a slight shift of the mouse can end up killing the carrier. The shots must be in the general direction of the player however, not directly upwards or downwards or in the opposite direction, etc.

 

I mean thats what T baiting comes down to, while you might "know" someone is not trying to shoot you but just around you, someone else might not. As long as someone shoots towards your general direction it is T baiting, no matter what they are hitting, props make no difference. Obviously you do not have to kill for it but others can if they think other guy is putting lives in danger.

However naturally if Im holding a chair and someone jumps on it and then shoots directly down, that is not T baiting etc.

 

I agree with the others, i consider that as t baiting for Example:
let's say someone tries to shoot you but hits the prop you're carrying he can re-adjust and shoot you again which doesn't really make sense.
If i was at that same situation i would have done the same and kill him.

As Jassa said shooting down is a different story.

 

In my opinion both of these are considered T Baiting.

The rules clearly state the following;


So, by shooting towards a player - you are T Baiting. When shooting directly up (To the roof) or directly down (To the ground) with no players in range to be damaged, this is not T Baiting, when shooting towards players it is, therefore essentially if your shooting a prop which is being carried by a player, your T Baiting as your shooting in the general direction of other players.

Yes, to be honest what I did last night was a dick move - wait till the box was broken but you were still T Baiting - No matter how long you T Bait for, as long as someone is T Baiting you can kill them for it.

The scenario you described at first between us is still counted as T Baiting, whether you called it out or not you shot in the direction of myself and as soon as the radio broke I killed you, yes because you destroyed the radio but I had the right to kill you as technically you were T Baiting when the radio was destroyed - think of it as overlooking a T Bait until an action has taken place which annoys you. It doesn't matter whether the prop can be broken or not, shooting at the prop being carried by a player is still considered T Baiting.

and to be honest, whether you were shooting the radio or myself, it's still considered T Baiting no matter how clear you made it, the rules clearly state "Shooting towards other players" and by shooting the radio *which was in front of me* when you were behind me meant you were shooting towards my direction, rightfully giving me the right to kill you when T Baiting and waiting till the radio was destroyed was a dick move but didn't stop the right for me to kill you, you still shot towards me - it's not like I left it 30 seconds AFTER the radio was destroyed to kill you, I did it instantly because you had just destroyed the radio, every shot you take towards a player restarts that T Baiting timer.

*If that makes any sense lmao*

 

It's okay to ask, don't worry about it.
It's better to ask than act on your own and end up breaking a rule. If in the future you have any other questions or anything really add, ask or inform a higher up.
If this can't be done feel free to do a thread like this.

 

Acno hit the nail on the head.
