The Official Xbox Community forums have been getting their creative thinking caps on and have come together to create their own 100 laws for First Person Shooter games. It's just a joke list, but if you really must vent your frustration at a suggestion, you can do so below, enjoy!
1. Anything red must explode if shot. Barrels are usually best, but crates of gas canisters also do the job.
2. Fixed mounted guns must always face away from any potential flashpoints and be pretty much useless.
3. Never bring a gun to a knife fight. You can unload a full clip of a shotgun into someones chest but if their knife grazes you then you are done for. Stay safe, always carry a knife.
4. Never run into a room that you have just thrown a flashbang into as the grenade only effects you.
5. Venus fly trap. Care packages are the best way to draw out campers, pop one out into open areas and pick people off as they inevitably try to steal it from you, then when they are all dead stoll in and claim your UAV (or ammo crate more often than not).
6. The only thing you can ever rely on your team to do is, give away your position, run into your line of fire and freindlt flash you. [1-6 courtesy of lego pig]
7. No matter how many AI allies you have on the battlefield. All enemys will target you, regardless how far away they are [courtesy of Faz Fhunder]

9. If you can manage to sneak around the back unseen, to where the enemy team are hiding, your mate will carpet bomb you seconds later.
10. Pistols kill in 1 shot, unless you're using it.
11. Invariably, if you're good at a game, you'll be accused of being a glitcher, and pick up negative feedback and bad rep.
12. If you don't see anyone for 7 whole minutes, the second you do, you're dead.[8-12 courtesy of benj4m]
13. You carry a shotgun round in the hopes of close range kills but somehow someone with a sniper will always kill you at close range first.
14. The enemies who attack in 3s will teabag you but the one guy who just shot you through a complex series of debris parts will walk away and not show off how badly he owned you.
15. If someone calls you a poopy head you might aswell throw the game because that little kid will be shooting you in the back all match.
16. If you pick up the sniper or any other power weapon someone on your team will always teamkill you for it then miss with every shot they fire using it.
17. Even if you're drunk you can still get MVP by using a sniper rifle.
18. There will always be one guy claiming he's carrying the team and inevitably he will try to claim anything you do as his own.
19. At some point you will meet a "pro" who will threaten you with legal action for depriving him of his livelyhood because you kicked his ass.
20. The MLG will moan the game isn't balance and insist upon the removal of any weapon that requires some degree of throught to use and turn it into a who shoots first wins luck contest.

son with said tag failing with the sniper or using another weapon is deemed an 'epic fail' offence. [that be my suggestion]
