Inflating one's individual score or statistics in a video game without productive contribution to gameplay. Usually refers to a style of play that neglects all other activities except those yielding easy points to personal score.
In games requiring teamwork, the "padder's" contribution to the team effort and their team's capabilities usually suffer as a result.
One probable origin of the expression is the video game Battlefield 2, where various, originally supportive activities could be abused to gain individual score without actually contributing to gameplay. In Battlefield: Bad Company 2 the tradition continued, as reviving dying players repeatedly with the defibrillator "pads" yielded relatively high personal score, but in most instances contributed little to the team effort, as the medic would essentially abandon all other activity, sometimes even being counterproductive by preventing teammates from playing freely.

Get the paddington ambush mug.Their name is very unusual, but extremely unique. Paden's are usually very shy, but sweet. They are naturally good natured, and are very kind. They are drawn to kindness, and they don't judge. They have beautiful eyes, with a sparkling smile to match. They are easy to talk to, and they will be by your side when you need them. Not only are they the person of your dreams, they are so attractive, and have a cute smitten way to them. They don't talk about themselves non-stop, and their great listeners. If you known a Paden, consider your self lucky. Great people are hard to come by, and a Paden is the one for you.
