Campers, by definition, are people who position themselves in one spot and stay there for extended periods of time, usually either to guard an objective or to surprise unwary passer-bys. Flamed the most on the ever-popular Counter-Strike. Campers are usually hated on by anyone that doesn't camp because people seem to think that getting a kill while running in front of 10 opponents is smarter than picking them off by surprise. It's sad to say, but people are so impatient that they're willing to call you a camper just because you stand in a spot for more than 15 seconds. The whole reason why people get mad at campers is because either 1.) They died because they decided to try and be "skilled" and ran out into the open with their gun firing only to be shot at by six other guys, or 2.) Someone who is too afraid to look for the camper because of the fear he will be killed, thus lowering his score. Just because someone decides to hide behind a box so he can kill people that pass by doesn't make him "n00b". If he's a "n00b", what does that make you for getting killed by him. If you're good enough to call him a "n00b", why don't you just...check around instead of running past him like an idiot and getting killed, it's not that hard
The gist of it: A group of people with patience and strategy hated on by idiots and impatient 13 year olds with autism and/or ADD.

"It's 1 vs 10, I think i'll camp so I can pick a few of them off first."

A phrase coined by forgetful gamers describing someone they forgot killed them in the exact same spot not 10 seconds earlier. It's a form of strategy that keep your kills higher then your deaths. That's how you win wars. No modern wars were ever won by people running around in the open. Any tactician will tell you.
It is often frowned upon especially during deathmatch style games since it is assumed everyone is running around and blasting. During the chaos a camper can rack up a good score easily. But if you want to win you have to play smart.

Gamer 1: F*ckng camper! That's such bllsh*t!
Gamer 2: Well instead of running into that room again, throw a grenade, be more cautious, or avoid the room entirely and force the camper to move. A camper will move if you don't voluntarily give him an easy shot.
Gamer 1: Whatever it's still bllsh*t.

A derogatory term referring to a individual in a first-person shooter who uses strategy and tactics rather than quick fingers, e-thuggery and lack of a social life to win team/objective based games.
"Yo, the 3oII clan is good at fukin camping, f'n fag campers"
"Actually, the 3$ clan is good at running into the street and getting shot. Learn how to play"

Camping is a method of sniping, usually used on fps style games. it genrally involves standing crouching or lying prone in a high spot with a good vantage point or view. campers are genrally disliked by the online gaming community due to an apparent lack of skill, however is their more skill in carefully picking of other players or rushing in like a noob and getting shot, if the noob approach is more skillfull why do you die more often? because of this campers are often targited for abuse by the more moronic players of the gameing community. campers are often referred to as noobs no-matter the skill used in targeting amoving target and takeing them out, one shot one kill
camper sits in wait, like crouching tiger. unwary prey runs like headless chicken, camper strikes, now chicken really headless. this is skill
OMG fukin camper fight like a man

A person that can't play the game, have to sit at spawn wait to get potentially "RUSHED" and take them out and also people that wait until theres like two guys left on the opposite team until you decide to slowly move.
There are some exeptions though : If your on a team on a big map 1 or 2 "CAMPERS" is ok.
You can't camp if your a "LONE WOLF" because your on your own n your not playing strategicly.
You are outnumbered by more than 3 to 1.
You are defending a bomb PLANT that you recently PLANTED. You have just started playing the game and don't know what the hell to do ( BUT YOU CAN SPECTATE AND LEARN IN TIME) and last (IF YOUR IN A REAL WAR GETTING SHOT AT BY THE TALIBAN AND YOUR REAL-LIFE IS IN DANGER) i Hope the majority of people "UP" this because if your good like me you will know this is correct. And if you "DOWN" this YOU are described in the title. Thank you for reading
