Talk:Boosting

Why does this article exist?
I've read this article and to me it seems like it is very detailed in methods of boosting but vague in methods to stop them, as if the creator of the article wanted more people to intentionally ruin the gaming experience for others. If anything, isnt this article just going to make more people aware of how to boost, making it an even bigger problem for the average gamer? 86.139.91.158 13:38, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

The problem is that methods of boosting are clearly defined, whereas methods of stopping boosters are not and can be improvised. Unfortunately, this means that we are technically not supposed to include any specific methods of stopping boosters in the article, but boosting is a big enough part of online play that we should technically have an article on it. However, I will make a motion to have this article deleted for purely moral reasons, but I have no idea how successful that will be. Imrlybord7 13:44, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

I think an article descibing what boosting is is fine. Just don't mention how to do it or how to stop it. People can go to youtube for that information. This is an encyclopedia, not a how-to manuel. Delete the methodology and prevention sections, leave the explanation. It's surprising how many people I meet online in MW2 that ask me what boosting is. And that's all this article needs to provide.

The easiest way to stop booster is to use SitRep as booster will use coldblooded and ninja and forget that they have to use Tactical Insertion. I dont see anything wrong with boosting in a cage match. After all, IW add cage match for people who like to boost.

Really? I mean Really? IW did not have cage match for boosters. It is a legitimate gametype, and it breaks the game. Plain and simple.
