one person in a team of two. the sniper is the firing man of the two and the other is called a spoter. the spoter is the brains of this group his job is to caculate all affects on the bullet such as humidity bullet density ect. snipers rarely work alone depending on the type of sniper. scout snipers rarely take a shot 98% of their job is scouting leaving the 2% as firing the rifle. of that 2% most of the firing is on tactical equipment. a combat sniper is found working with a squad and is almost always alone. the reason why this is is: combat sniping is used for shorter distances meaning a spoter is not always necesary. so please little kids who play CoD stop saying your a sniper and have some respect for the real ones.(do not mention a sniper without spoter following close behing)
the sniper team moved into position to for the FFP if needed but their primary mission was to relly all movements made by the target.

A soldier in a military unit who specializes in long-range operations, stealth, and stalking targets. Snipers are trained to make accurate shots over distances exceeding 800m and up to 1500m. Unlike squad designated marksmen, the sniper operates at longer distances and works, ordinarily, with only a spotter, and not with a squad. Snipers normally employ the use of bolt-action rifles, high-caliber sniper rifles, or scoped battle rifles to carry out their mission, though they do carry pistols and knives as a last resort.
Soldier 1: We have a runner. Joe, take him out!
Soldier 2: Negative. Joe can't shoot for shit. Walter's a better sniper. Get him to take him out.

A role played in most shooting games, probally the most annoying for other players but still the most skillfull role. A player who prefers to snipe uses a scoped rifle to hunt down enemy players and end their existance quickly and with a single shot so their position remains hidden. It is often difficult to remove a sniper who has a good point by convectional means as they will see you coming unless you flank them. Snipers often move when their position is comprimised making them easy unarmed targets as a scoped rifle is useless is close quaters.
-----Snipers are also real life military personel but are often reffered to professional as scouts.

(1.) The act of IMing someone as they're busy typing. The resultant pop-up window steals their cursor and often the victim continues typing into the return window unknowingly.
(2.) The justification for falling down for no apparent reason.
