I did a quick search and found nothing on this topic so im posting even though it would seem weird if no one had suggested it before.

Ok so heres my idea, susiude should minus your kills by one point as well. Simple I know but it would stop a lot of things such as people with M79s going susuidal so they can get there score high, and people killing them selfs when on low health.

i agree
the suicides will lower and the player is trying to got himself killed by himself

Ok, good idea, should go with team kills and non-Rambo kills to stop laming

maybe you didnt search for SUICIDE ?
and this thing was active in previous versions, when you killed yourself you'd lose 2 points i think.

When I say quick search I mean it, I looked up and down the last couple of pages of ideas.

I said lose one point, two is to much.

SK's right, but I think you only lost 1 point for a suicide. I'm not sure exactly why it was changed, but I always thought it was a good idea to be penalized for a suicide.

edit: I just checked the version history and the -1 point for a suicide was taken away when 1.1.4 came out.
"- Changed points and team score doesn't decrease from self kills"

edit #2:: I found an old archived topic from last December about this exact idea: Suicide = -1.

There are some really good points made (mostly about why you shouldn't get -1 point for a suicide) but I still like the -1 for most game modes (like ctf, inf, DM) while it could be bad when your teams score depends on the points of your teammates (TDM).

Server-side option? I know it's annoying, but some servers (like n00bface's old one, and the selfkill ones) crash when someone /kills... A 'punishment' would stop people from doing it accidentally without knowing.
