Camping

Camping is the act of voluntarily keeping out of firefights by staying in one place while shooting from a distance or sneaking out from behind a corner to wreak havoc on an unsuspecting player passing by. Camping is rarely performed unless one has a powerful weapon such as the Sniper Rifle, the Rocket Launcher, or the Energy Sword. Although camping is a legal and legitimate strategy, most players complain that it takes away from the inherent fun of the game.

Camping is also used in areas where an enemy needs to go (bomb/flag) or cannot stop moving (i.e. lift). The player sits in a hard to see place or at least a place to get a jump on the enemy and kills them quickly.

A variant of camping known as "Spawn Rape" involves exploiting spawn points by camping near them and catching recently spawned players offguard and poorly-armed.
