Revenge Killing, how common?T

[Mister_Meatball 5]

Yes this is a wall of text, please tl;dr at your own risk.

The following happened yesterday night and 30 minutes ago.

There must be a million stories on this forum that begin like this, but there is no other way to accurately describe what was happening at the time, well, here it goes... So I was walking though the woods with my friend, this was a server with side chat and we heard about a teleporting hacker, this was a busy Chicago based server and we felt relatively safe, we kept our eyes open and kept going (first mistake). About a minute later a ghillie suited player with the same loadout as my friend (M4A3CCO) appears directly next to him with the name Tbankz, once I saw the name and that this was not a glitch I blew him away with my DMR, nothing unusual about his loadout except for it being relatively high tier, my buddy who had thought it was a glitch and disconnected due to Tbankz having the same weapon and ghillie suit was reconnecting (second mistake). I went prone 100 meters or so uphill, looked around and gaurded my buddy's last location. I looked around carefully but got sloppy and was killed by two point blank shots from an M4A3CCO, guess who it was. (final and fatal mistake). My friend quickly disconnected and I respawned, taking the AS50 out of his pack while he kept his M4A3CCO. We stopped outside of Cherno and called it a Night.

Today we reconnected and decided to waltz into Cherno, having the sniper I checked the skyline and especially the factory complex for snipers, 10 people on the server and there was one staring right at us from the tallest building. "Sniper!" I called out and we took cover, a bullet hit me and knocked me down to about 4k blood, pretty impressive at 550m. My buddy went prone and began to spot, he had the angle wrong and the sniper got him. I ran about 25m to right and crouched behind a think tree. I zeroed to 500m and returned fire, he had the advantage but I was not about to disconnect. I returned fire from the one side of the tree I could see from, he was good and I could not get off a good shot. I leaned out the other side and let off two shots as suppressive fire, then a third, I got him, it was an almost blind shot, lucky me. We celebrated over skype as my buddy was less than 30 seconds out at this point, attempting to recover his gear, I go right towards the coast and I hear a M107 fire from behind me, zig zagging for about 30 seconds I take cover and am immediately killed. No biggie though. My buddy makes it to his body and the last thing he says before he is ventilated is "Wait vislain [sic] just died! I moused over him and he is right back where you killed him!"

First off, I am not raging, I got a DMR at the tents outside of Balota and we met back up in Cherno. The sniper experience was worth the death.

Second, I am not saying I was killed by a hacker the second time, I have no evidence that his was vislain [sic] who killed me.

Third, do you think this vislain [sic] was teleporting or just made it back to his perch inthe factory complex in about a minute.

How prevalent is this? If the second experience was in fact a teleporter it seems as though no server is safe from this. I see a bunch of servers that say they ban on tele but it seems a lot of servers with side chat talk about teleporting hacker, If only 10 percent of these accusations were true than it would still be epidemic. I am not looking for pity I just want an assessment of the second encounter and an answer on how prevalent this issue is.

I killed a guy in Elektro with my friend, he came back and shot my friend.

I guess you can say I killed him out of revenge.
