Not sure if bandit

[weeman0 7]

So this playthrough i'm upto 34 days and only 4 murders (0 bandit kills)...i prefer not to shoot other players if i can avoid being detected.

I can't remember my first kill...i think someone was shooting at one of my friends.

Second kill, was escorting my brother through a quick loot run through elektro, searching the office and see a ghillie suit dart past the ground floor door (we were on the second floor). We hit the deck, i move out onto the roof to get a better look...Survivor running around the hospital...he starts heading east out of elektro when we hear shots from the north...he swings north, gets on a small hill just east of us...starts taking shots with an l85 at what i assume is the other survivor we heard shooting...i line his head up with my m24 and squeeze the trigger...we didn't need to stay in elektro for any more loot.

Third kill...i was up at the NW airfield searching for anything of use. I enter the far NW barracks in a crouch, not being as cautious as i probably should've been as there was a chemlight out front...first room is empty...open the door to the second room and there's a player lying there facing away from me...by some miracle i realise he hasn't noticed me...I aim my m4a3 cco at the base of his neck and say through direct "don't move a muscle or i'll unload on you, i'm not interested in bloodshed today" He starts turning around to his right (im on his left) i unload on him...i was surprised he didn't log off.

Forth kill was shortly after. i had just left the NW barracks and was heading to the southern barracks planning to head all the way around...i catch a glimpse of what appears to be a backpack shuffling through the trees directly ahead of me...i stop and take aim...a head pokes through the trees looking directly at me not 10 meters from me...i open fire without a second thought...

Am I a bandit?

Your only a bandit if you actively search for other players to kill/loot.

I would say your not, sometimes you just have to take the first shot if you don't have time to take cover or communicate.
