The most interesting aspect of this game, for me, is seeing people who hunt particular types of players out in the DayZ world.

I think the most magical thing about DayZ is that it puts on display, that natural human tendency to kill our own species, as soon as we are able to become the dominant predator along the food chain. And, no matter how 'wrong' some may proclaim it to be, they ALWAYS find a reason to murder.

So are there any particular types of players you have made it your mission to hunt down and kill? What are your reasons? Do you think you are justified for doing so? If so, how?

If I have time I usually try the counter-sniping tactic against those pesky snipers in ghillie shooting at poor souls in major cities.

I'm either with a group of friends or go it alone, if I see someone who hasn't spotted me or if I hear gunshots I tend to move out of the area, but if I get put in a position where I have to decide whether to shoot this guy who's telling me to "stand still", I'll almost always shoot before asking if he's friendly or not.

Not because I enjoy making somebodies 3+ hours a waste of time, but if I had to confine it to one reason, it would be because I'd rather them than me.

If I had to say who I hunt it would have to be campers.

I try and hunt Bandits and Cherno and Elektro campers, but it doesn't always go according to plan.

I don't "hunt players." If I see another armed person, I will most likely shoot. Unarmed players, no. The closest thing to hunting was when I was playing on a night server and someone in Elektro was throwing flares all over the place as I was leaving. He went onto the hospital (I should also add that he had an Enfield, so he wasn't unarmed), I took a shot, he bandaged and then d/ced. Came back a few minutes later and I hit him again. He then d/ced and didn't come back. So I suppose people who make themselves a target by throwing flares all over the place on a night server... Might make me seem like a dick, but oh well. XD

Safety first, but otherwise? Everyone I meet.

By hunt I don't just mean shoot on sight. It means tracking them slowly and carefully, until I can safely put a few rounds into them, usually by finding a suitable camping spot (e.g. outside a single-entrance building they entered).
