Camping is computer gaming jargon for the practice in first-person shooters of residing in a location that gives the player clear advantage over other players. The position is normally hidden from casual view and is used to ambush or carry out sniper attacks on other players.
In fast paced games like Quake or Unreal Tournament, this is regarded as an annoying and unsporting practice. In more tactical team based games (for example, Counter-strike) this does not apply, because ambushing is often a nessesary part of the game.
