Teaming is the idea that two or more people work together towards a common goal. But in Minecraft, it can be a little unfair. In Survival Games, teaming is common, and is usually accepted due to the number of players. But in games like Super Craft Bros, One in the Chamber, and other small team games, it is very unfair. In SCB, tons of players say things like, "Lets team up on this(these) N00B(z)." And this in itself is unfair. Yet others do worse... boosting. Boosting is when people work together to advance faster in the game, and it is highly disliked by most game members. Instead of actually using skill, players overpower others and beat them within seconds. And afterwards...they reap all the rewards. Now the problem here is that they won't stop, they seem to enjoy cheating and boosting, meanwhile honest players are losing every time. But, it doesn't always work:


Yesterday, two guys decided to team up on me in SCB. They split up and tried to lure me somewhere... my hard work and skill prevailed as I knocked them over the edge. Of course they called hacks and cheats, but I felt happy to know that I beat 2 Pay-to-wins by myself."


See, they can try, but if anything they are doing it because they lack skill or experience. Be a bigger person and don't fight or complain...because it is just a game!

If it works and is available to everyone with a bit of effort, it's not cheating.

Uggghhhhhh how many people are going to ask this...
Working with a friend is not cheating, it is an effective strategy to accomplish a goal. Unless the game is explicitly stated to be a free-for-all, such as One in the Chamber, teaming is an effective and legitimate strategy. If the game is Hunger Games, working as a team is a good means to an end. There are plenty of ways to eliminate a team anyhow, if you have any skill at PVP. Sometimes it can be a disadvantage, especially in OITC if you can play it right. So seriously, if you're forever alone and can't find any friends to play the game with, don't get angry at other people who want to play the game with their friends.

I said Survival Games are meant for teaming... I was mainly talking about SCB and other SMALL minigames. And I doubt friendship exist while playing Super Smash Bros.

All the same. Your personal opinion shouldn't justify detracting from other peoples' ability to enjoy a game with their friends and build teamwork skills they can use in the real world.

Teamwork skills? These teams are made within seconds and they don't develop anything. All they want is one less person as an enemy, when the whole point of the game is to be the best fighter, not the best wimp.

By now you sound more as though you're defending your claim than you are asserting it. If the teams are formed in a few seconds, the odds of them actually functioning remotely well as a team are close to none, and they really shouldn't pose a problem to you. Besides, two people in the same place on a minigame just makes one big target ;)

That is the point! It doesn't matter if they bond. These small teams are just used by people to make them less of a target. It is profitable, but unfair to others.

Try not using highlights excessively, it makes the text harder to read.
