Why are you including Peeking in there? Literally everything else on that list is a legitimate device or tactic intended, or incorporated into the game, by Nexon. Peeking is a glitch, by nature and by confirmation by Nexon.

As for flash, biochems, and camping, it's all just a bunch of whining, really. People encounter something which encourages or forces them to adapt, to change their strategy, and they get upset because they either cannot, or don't want to. They want to just mindlessly go about doing the same thing they've always done without any variation or challenge. When something new does come about, such as semi-snipers, flash grenades, or smoke, they make up excuses as to why their deaths to such tactics are illegitimate.

The funny thing is that often these devices are actually non-optimal compared to their counterparts. Flashes only blind you - you can move and shoot - where as an HE grenade would have instantly killed the target. Semis have crazy recoil and aren't OHK, whereas Bolt Snipers such as the L9 or the MSR instantly kill the target.

They encounter something they're not used to, and complain.
