Well, if I dont use cruise then its not shield running.
As to "Another "They did it, so we will too."?", if a tactic is legal and discussions on the forum result in it being legal, then why shouldnt we be permitted to use it as well? For what its worth, I opened up distance because someone was asking me questions at the time. On another note, dont bitch at us for using tactics that everyone else here uses in the EXACT same situations. That is just being childish and petty.
