Why the hate towards TD players?

Because it isn't "Pro" to do so.
Don't take it to heart. There's nothing wrong with playing public TD. If you're having fun, enjoy it. The only people who'll give you grief are the "pro" clans that only do clan-scrims, because that's often a bit harder to do. And they're just being the Bully-Jock to your General-Fitness self. -

It's simple really, good players play SnD, but they do play death match usually to warm up. This applies to all shooting games, the new players, unexperienced and unskilled players tend to favor team death match because it is filled with people their own skill level where they cannot keep up in for example in a search and destroy game in alpha 5.

correcter me if im wrong but dont PRO's get paid and as i recall there isn't any clans that get paid to play , so what i think u mean is SKILLED players , oh i forgot ur one of those guys that call them selfs PRO............. LMFAO -
In a TD knowing your going to be respawn makes u go wild, spray, careless more often than you would do in a S&D were if you die you have to wait till the end of the round to play, therefore it makes you focus more in the game = becoming more skillful.

People look down on TDM cos of a few reasons, one of them is that alot people who played it are infact either farmers, beginners - average players (mostly), more skilled just for a good warm up or a laugh, or cheats trying to farm their account and/or just have fun cheating w/o being voted out all the time.
2nd, i saw a guy saying "pretty good guys in TDM these days" - either more skilled warming up, cheats or the average guy thats just better than the other guys in spraying. These are mostly also the guys that join an s/d thinking they are realy good and get pwnd and start screaming hack everywhere and at everyone cos they fail to see their own flaws.
we all encounter the cheat problem, but i think alot of people are going paranoid when 1 person for example alaska or so, manages to stop an entire team on his own (its a circle, its not like they can surprise him much only 2 sides to run at him) and do this several rounds in row. For like 95% of the people i see in those games, they'll start screaming hack and go all paranoid. Best one there is that they say "REPORTED AND BANNED" and than leave. (how you gonna save replay and make a screen not to mention report to admins?)
Seriously, TDM can be fun and stuff, and is good to learn how to aim better but when it comes to playing s/d, ghost mode (sometimes even elemination maps) you still need your brains to think what your opponent is going to do next, what he does, how long it takes him to get from point A to point B, after you saw him run with his knife in his hands to point B. I gues what im saying is, TDM doesnt realy determine a great amount of skill or anything and it proofs little to nothing. While if your a good player/team in s/d or GM for example, it starts showing how good your personal skills are or your teamwork. Any dude that has like a "golden" aim and is uber good, but doesnt know how to put down tactic or think ahead of his opponent, can get reaped by a less skillfull player that does keep all that in mind.
I think i cleared up a bit why TDM isnt "that big" in the eyes of a "skilled" person. Keep in mind that im not saying a beginner that has a crap aim, cant use his brains and predict where a guy will come, or that a skilled player will never cheat or so. I just tried pointing out why alot of people (mostly on the forum i think) think rather low of tdm's
my 2 cents. Hope some of you see my point ^_^ -
TDM's are frowned upon because all who play them run around and jump about like monkeys sparaying wildly and hoping at least 1 bullet from the magazine hits sum1..basically most ppl run out of the spawn blind shooting anything and everything till they get a kill
S&D or GM all the way for me occasionally i play alaska to try out a different weapon
