Can I get a definition on KS?

[LowfatCriminal]

So I was playing hero assault tonight and a couple times I was battling someone and SWGO Johnny would randomly come in, tp, then ks. I responded with the usual "wth dude" he said "you must have them under control for it to be a ks" I believe what he means is if I have them mashed or something, I was still about to get the kill without needing to mash him so I was quite irritated when he kept interjecting with this "full control" nonsense. Isnt that part of what makes a battle fun is sometimes you dont know the outcome and its not just a quick mashed push and the fights over, its hard to have good battles whenever your teammate keeps interjecting and stealing your opponent. Can I please get a clear definition on what kill stealing is?

From what I saw, is that you pushed johnny resulting in the maul attacking him. Johnny jumped up and finished the kill. While it might have been a kill steal, I don not believe it really was. If I were to do anything, I would have kicked you for team pushing and then team killing. So if you really want to pursue the er, go ahead.

Johnny, don't follow teammates around like that. It will lead to these situations.

Thanks MD... I forgot to mention that part

I did follow him because I knew what was going to happen, he team pushed and team killed me two times before I started to record and follow him. If you look at the video again you will see that he rolls off the hangar wall before I attack he also tried to basic attack a full health Maul to death which does not work and if the maul would have used push instead of throw LowfatCriminal would be as good as dead.

Anyways maybe someone can give LowfatCriminal a definition of Kill steal?

Johnny, if you were following me like that, I would push you away. Your wearing black and hovering over your team mate. I would push on instinct. You were in the wrong here and I would have booted you for harrassing a player, disruptive gameplay, and for being a douche.

Do not follow team mates that closely and try to "save" them. Your "help" is not wanted nor welcome to most players.

You guys make me laugh. There were only 4 or 5 players on the server at the time, and you had the whole map to play on, but you decide to ride each others butts over petty kills. Moronic.

I did not try to "save" or "help" I just wanted to get the evidence that I did not get the two times before. He did not push on instinct as he could see me all the time.

I would have kicked you for KSing, and kicked lowfat for retaliation.
I've not seen many cases of harassment by following someone around like that, so I'm not going to get into that, however being as close you are exposed to teamkills by accident.

Anyways maybe someone can give LowfatCriminal a definition of Kill steal?

A definition as requested:

A kill steal is the method of obtaining an advantage over a team member via the use of unnecessary or unwelcome assistance to gain a point.
