Hey peeps,

I am wondering what exactly is considered as "nade spamming".

Most of the time I am equipped with 1 nade and 1 Flash, and depending on the situation I will often throw a flash in first, and the nade straight after..hoping that the enemy is blinded and unable to run away from the nade.

Is this OK to do, or considered nade spamming? :blink:

I'm under the impression that nade spamming is throwing a nade (or several) towards the spawn area. Or throwing them without knowing if an opponent is there.

Could someone shed some light on this for me pls, thanks! :byebye:

I've seen people throw several nades....must be a perk they are using? :g:(it's been a while since I've set up a new class.)

I'm generally equipped with a nade + either smoke/flash.

Nade spamming is when the round starts and people throw nades where they think some one will be.  A guess!!!

There is no problem if you see me run in to a room and you feel the need to thrown 3 nades in to make sure I am dead.  Cause you know I am in there.

It the starting of the level and just blind throwing.  There is no skill in it.  And it not how we play.

I hope that this clears it up for you.  Here is the list of rules for the server

If you still not sure mate just grab one of the admin on coms and we can clear it up for you.

In general, the rule is "if you are fairly sure there is an enemy in the room, then nade away". However, if you're lobbing nades in to the enemy spawn at round start, that's a big NO! NO!
 
Just use some common sense, if you're lobbing the nades on the off chance you might get a kill then you probably shouldn't do it.

It's when you look at kill cam and you just see someone throwing a nade right up at the start of a level. Pain in the arse. Throwing into risky rooms or round a corner you're about to walk round is fine.
It's just the throwing up in the air that annoys me.

So just to clarify, if you can't see people you can't guess that they might be there and opportune fire? Even if after many hours of playing you can be very sure they will be there?

I've never found nade spamming an issue on our servers as its only 8 v 8 so you don't have the carpet bombing you see on other servers.

T-bag my reading of Bro Tobius explanation means you can't throw into risky rooms or round a corner as you haven't seen the enemy... Can someone clarify?

Grenade spam and appropriate use of suppressive fire:
The use of throwing Frag Grenades/C-4/UAV/Air-strikes/Choppers are prohibited before the first 20 seconds of the round.
Random, blind use grenades is prohibited. Blind grenades are defined as randomly tossing into locations where no threats have been identified or into locations to clear but failing to following the grenade into that location. Using UAV to spot threats is an acceptable use for throwing grenades due to the indicator icon on the mini map.

Dewey mine was an example more to explain the difference between Spamming and using them.

If you lob a nade in to a room and follow in, or round acorner etc. no probs, as it says above.

The issues is nadding blindly as you run out of the starting blocks.

Hope this helps.

Yep cheers Bro - btw I don't think nadding is a word though it could be a euphemism for something else :norty:

From Urban Dictionary (so it must be real):   (Applicable to males only)
To have been (usually unintentionally) struck very hard in the sensitive groin region, resulting in a large impact force upon the testicles.

Mass grenade spamming at the begining of a level is probably my number one hate in CoD.  Problem is it works and usually bags a couple of kills for people a round :(

As to random tossing (:norty:), I tend to lob a grenade of any sort one way and move the other - distraction tactics. Then again all my builds include UAV jamming and silencers where possible, so it's part of my sneaky back-stabbing hobgoblin tactics.
