From what I've read it seems that you can remove tracers by using either the "Smoke counter measures" vehicle perk or the smoke granade launcher. I haven't tried it yet so I assume you need to get out and shoot the tracer with the smoke granade.

Apparently it doesn't work on helis.

If someone manages to do it, please let us know exactly how it works.

This is from a post named "BFBC2 List of changes made to the Final version"

Vehicle Smoke Launchers and 40mm smoke remove tracer darts and spots on friendlies in the effect.

I actually gave him some rep the other day for a funny bit ;)

Edit: And I wasn't even the first. Nitty did the honours of giving the Rat some welcome rep :p

Read the FAQ (http://www.wargeeks.org/faq.php?faq=vb_faq#faq_faq_board_rep).

Does that mean the rep I receive is lost forever or will it kick in once I reach 100 posts? Sorry, but the FAQ was a bit ambiguous :bitenails:

It is definitely not lost.

I'm not entirely sure on that point. When we implemented the rep system, I was way past 100 posts, so I don't know.
I *think* it will kick in with your past rep.
You'll definitely keep your rep comments, but as far as the rep points go, I'm not sure.

I'll let you know when the time comes for future reference. Now I only need to go and post another 50 or so random / useless posts quickly so I can break the barrier :D

Has she at least stopped calling you? I told her you're married, but the heart wants what the heart wants.
