Re: Is playing passive a banable offense like being friendly to other players?
@drunkcat12345 being friendly is not a bannable offense, eventually you'll come back around to kill them later should you leave the interaction on friendly terms, or they'll kill you.
Teaming up IS a bannable offense, where if you cooperate with an enemy team to kill other enemy teams, that's bannable.
You could technically try to be friendly with other teams, but you'll most likely get killed. I'd say, skip the pleasantries, and open up with a warm lead handshake.
