sniper

1) a highly skilled Marksmen who uses his skills in Fieldcraft, Marksmanship, and will to survive to take the vital shot which could decide a battle
"One Shot, One Kill"

2) A member of a FPS team who uses a Rifle usually equiped with a Telescopic sight and picks off targets. They come in 2 varieties Newbs and Pro. Newbs tend to use it and shoot anyone and then brag about being 1337 and say i sniped 59 people on Halo today. A pro sniper waits for that 1 shot, be it a Mger who has hassled the time or a enemy sniper. He doesnt galavant after kills he is there to make sure his team survive. Like a true sniper he doesnt brag, or claim to be uber 1337, he just does his job and carries on
1) He was like a sniper, taking his shot then disapearing in to the darkness
2) Team leader: take out that mg
Newb: I aint gonna do that when i could pick off these 5 easy targets
Pro: ill do it

sniper

Hiding in a closet while two people are having sex and proceeding to beat off in the closet. Right before you're about to blow, it is the act of running out of the closet and busting a nut on them and then running away.

sniper

a remarkably skilled marksman in real life, or in a video game
1)in the video game scenario, he/she is usually considered "cheap", a "noob", or a coward
(s)he usually pisses off those of the other team by sniping them from halfway across the map from a very covert location.
although (s)he is a threat from far away, one can strafe back and forth to avoid being shot while closing in on his/her location, and if the player gets to close enough to the sniper, the sniper is rendered virtually useless because "unscoped" shots are particularly hard to pull off
2)a sniper may also piss off his teammates, too, by shooting the person the player is sneaking up on, therefore making the sniper a "kill stealer"
*player suddenly drops dead, no visible killer in sight*
Player: god**** snipers!

sniper

for professional school students (med school, law school, etc.)

like a gunner, but instead of letting everyone know he/she is a gunner, this person silently works hard, but appears very chill; in the end he/she kicks everyone's ass when the exam grades come out.
med student: dude man, he is a gunner.
med student2: no man, he's a sniper; never see him study and super chill, but just keep getting As
