In a fire fight, a player does not have time to look and see if his target is in fact not a spray.
On nuke we had a guy spray in the left rush path. So 5 t's burst around the corner and most of them shot at a spray on the wall because they didn't have time to examine it.
A lot of people on low res comps can't even tell the different in close range.
Its a huge advantage to the camping team. Rushers dont have time to stop and examine every ct to make sure he is real, they need to shoot at them to move forward.
There is no equivlent spray for a rushing team to use... You can't lay down a moving around the corner spray.
Unfair advantage = do not use

Given the game Counterstrike, it is suppose to be a realistic style shoot em up. Most all scenarios (maps) are built to have two forces who know of each other's prescience to engage in combat within approx 2-5 minutes.
Imagine yourself in a ct's boondockers, given orders to stop terrorist's attempts to bomb certain areas. You are given 5 minutes, do you have time to spray paint a realistic figure of the opposing force upon a wall?
No way.
But... I've engaged one on one versus a painted wall before, regardless of the amount of frags I got, I was tactically tricked.... actually more on the lines of stupified. That is why I pick this game over Half-Life, it's more intelluctual. That's fun.
That's the reason I don't mind someone using decoy sprays, same reason I play this game, it's fun.
Vote YES on POLL "should decoy sprays be allowed?" and safeguard your freedom to spray!

"sprays don't make people camp, bad tactics do"
in the interest of tactical sprays i'd like to defend the users against being labled campers. i think if a person camps normally they'll camp with decoy sprays.
i tend to spray them here and there while i'm running just to add a little confusion behind me. if you don't like the sprays set your decal limit to zero like joe said. who knows it might even raise your fps and lower your ping after doing so.

"Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot. It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you. I like brawling. You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil, You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them." Lt. Gen. James Mattis 2005

If you ban decoy sprays, you might as well ban any dark spray at all on a dark map (more effective than decoy spraying).
Besides, regardless of what your objective is, you use the tools at your disposal to the best of your ability. I can recall many movie in particular, where a decoy of some sort was used successfully.
