Ghosting

Will there be a timer to enter server with a delay for the future?

been mentioned many times, but i doubt it. maybe a countdown before you can disconnect, but probably not server joining as that would just annoy people and detract from the overall quality of the game. server hopping needs to be addressed some other way..

I've always defined "ghosting" as logging out of a server... switching servers and moving... then logging onto the original server in a better position.  This is a really pansy annoying thing to do.  Logging into a server in a spot isn't what I call ghosting... switching servers on top of a good sniper spot isn't ghosting.

ghosting was a mod problem. now with the SA they are able to fix it and im sure they will. all they need is time and love.

One was significantly worse in the mod when you could fire 3-4 bullets... insta log... switch spots... fire 3-4 bullets... insta log... switch spots... fire 3-4... well you get the idea.  This was the original idea behind ghosting.  Logging into a server in an advantageous position not knowing that there's a person there isn't ghosting... its smart play.  Its like saying that I'm cheating because I logged out for the night near a barracks thinking I would loot it when I logged on.  That being said, server shopping is just about as horseshit as anything... switching servers to snipe or for loot is pretty balls.
