Friendly fire is this games biggest aggravation.

I understand the premise of being careful when it comes to friendly fire, but you can't always compensate for people who are just plain stupid.

I've gotten 3 different final warnings in relation to team killing when some noob runs into my vehicle and dies or runs in front of my engineer turret while im pwning some NC guy xD.

I guess my point is that I don't see what positive contribution friendly fire makes to the game.  SOE is simply asking for a constant pain in the tail with a feature like this.

Think about it, let's enable a behaviour that we will automatically issue you a warning, second warning, 3rd 4th 5th BAN for.

It just enables TK trolling especially since it's F2P.  Anyways, I'm finished with my suggestion :D.

    Yes let us promote the use of explosives in any and all situations regardless of friendlies, let's have everyone throw around newbtubes and lob grenades with abandon, hell let's also throw in A2G missiles, tanks and everything else.

    Keep the friendly fire.

    Play better, I've never had a warning.

    It can get pretty busy and FF is just a fact of life. No game does a great job at this really.

    I think they should keep FF exactly the way it is. If they removed it all together the game would be much less fun for me.

    FF fire was a part of PS1 and has been a factor in all real life wars. FF forces makes people consider their surroundings more.   You mention that with FF you get people running in front of you while you are firing from a turret. Without FF people would just run in front of it and stand there.  Believe me, that would be far more aggrevating. 

    Yes, FF can be used to grief other players, but at least there is a lockout for those that  do it continuously.  

    I do wish they would cut engineers a little slack. Half the skill in being an engineer is to not get smooshed buy the vehicles you are trying to repair. Especially hard on the Vanu with those floating tanks. :)

    My only issue with ff

    It favours TR

    TR are the easiest to spot, its easy to get VS and NC confused, especially when Camo is used.
