My name isn't Manfred, but I'm going to chime in. Many squadrons have their own rules of play. Over time, some in those squadrons mistakenly begin to believe those rules apply to everyone. They make comments, accusations, and so on. In the past, even a few moderators bought into it, and would enforce these incorrect "rules" in the games. Of course as other mods saw things differently this led to a lot of inconsistencies in and false beliefs on what is and isn't acceptable in game conduct. Eventually, most of these things were clarified, but many never get the message. The latest gripe with many of these people that like to gripe has been regarding "sneakers". These people prefer that others only play the way they do, and are deeply offended if anyone doesn't go straight down the middle, carrying a bomb, and let connection and upload speed decide who the victors in each game are going to be. It's bogus and the act of "sneaking" isn't against the rules. One thing to consider though, if the teams are very unevenly matched, it can be very hard to combat. For that reason, many will choose not to do it. That's a choice, but not based on a rule. Also, it helps to know your opponent. If you invest some time and a little bit of your memory to the game, you will realize that many players have habits and unique styles of play. Know thy enemy! Don't let the chatter bother you... Don't spawn kill with a tank unless you are there on other business, keep it PG-13 and non derogatory towards others, don't teamkill, and have fun!
