You're the one who can be surprised more easily than before, and against a superior team it'll cost you. You can find your team scrambling to catch up and recover, as they already grab and begin running your flag while you respawn. Whining is only a problem when it's repeated, as you said, 5 some odd times; especially if it's about connection issues.  That's best solved outside of the game.  Talking about in-game stuff though can stress the point to other teammates if it's happening repeatedly..such as needler hopping on narrows, and nobody is killing him.  Hearing how stressed a guy is can help let the team know to give him a different role if possible, to aleviate his stress and help him get back into his "groove".</blockquote>
