Enemy tank is rolling into your base. This can't be allowed of course, so you check to see if you have any AT stuff. Unfortunately your pilot kit lacks anything that could harm a tank. So you, in a stroke of genious, decide to go lay directly behind the tank, or on top of it in a clever ruse to avoid being seen. Others see your shining example and say "Hey if Im on top of it, it can't kill me!" so they join you in making love to the tank. Your buddy finally spawns with a Faust, walks over to kill the tank, does, and is kicked for having 3 tks when the tank explosion kills his brilliant teamates.
What was wrong with this picture? The idiots who were playing grabass with the tank.
DO NOT HUMP ENEMY TANKS
If you can't kill it, get the hell out of the way or you'll get TKed and I'll get kicked. Same thing goes for calling in Air Support on a tank, knowing that your team has a 1000kg bomb stuka, and deciding to lay right next to the tank you just called the Stuka in to bomb. This also goes for camping on enemy ships while in range of Defguns.
No one is going to look at the map when there's an enemy tank in front of them. Use some common sense people.

:agreed
That story had everything... Ironic death, periods of nail-biting tension, sexual deviation and depravity, and even the word "grabass". I give it two thumbs up! ...grabass...hahahahahahahaha... that is a funny word. It's like spankaree.
More and more it seems like Battlefield is bringing a new level of depth into my life. Stories like this, and others like it, only enhance this sense. It does bother me when people act stupider than bots, though.
Bail out of tanks. Don't you just love it, when some newbie grabs the Kingtiger, get's hit twice by Crommwell loosing bout 10% of its armor, bails out and for the rest of the round you will be greeted by its 88mm one time after another.
Your tank catches fire and goes immobile. Who cares. It's still twice as deadly as most enemy tanks. Just stay in the tank and spam for engineer. If there isn't an engineer, you will not bail out, but explode with your tank.
NEVER EVER BAIL OUT OF ANY DECENT TANK
And a picture I captured today, relevant to the issue...
Sometimes I really wish strangling was possible over internet.
Beep the horn while trying to "sneak" into an enemy base. It is not a good diversionary tactic - they can see your nametag. They won't be thinking to themselves, "Oh, they're beeping - must be a captured enemy vehicle bringing needed reinforcements or supplies to the front. Let's not shoot."
Also, dittos on the tank stuff.
Also applies to firing the AAMG wildly into the air as I try to sneak around a hill to get a rear shot on that camping tiger. [color=white]Edit: That happened to our KT (getting stolen when a moron bails from it.) on Breakthrough the other day. Was a good thing the allied tank jacker was just as stupid as the guy he stole it from. He bailed from it when it took a hit and one of our guys stole it back. It was already across the bridge and with it laying down a barrage we crossed in force and owned them it was most pleasing. [/color]
