Vibe, I'm not quite sure what you mean by "spies" - that 2 or 3 people load up alts and deliberately try and make their team lose the round? Huh?

By spies I meant 2-3 people that get switched every map due to autobalance, even when banner balance is on.

"spies"

It was a joke.
I told you it was a joke because I think you didn't get it.
It really was a joke. No, really.
We actually play fair and none of us "ghosts" and gives others spectator intel or deliberately loses rounds by assassinating team members.

Also, locking spectator camera sucks for new players, since the ability to watch better players when you are dead is a great tool for people who are just learning.

The spectator camera also allows you to see the dominating players and builds are on the server and adapt accordingly.
Camera lock wouldn't actually interfere with either of these since you'd still be able to watch any of the actual fighting.
I said in OP that it would mean less fun, though.

You put a smiley face in, but that actually indicates smiling, hence the name "smile". Not the same as "telling me it was a joke" which would require a smiley called "joke". Maybe they should have one, with a jester's cap on or something.

Yeah, sure you do. I believe you. Although I may be joking.

Or perhaps I wasn't telling the truth and all our wins are staged and discussed in the dark rooms before we go to battle.

Shhhhhhhhhhh! What I do is not up for public discussion!
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

I like the free cam. When i'm dead i'm used to spectate other good players (of both both teams) and learn a trick or two.

Or just simply fly around the map X-Wing-style. :)

So i have something other to do then lurk on 4chan...
