Spawn camper

Yesterday I learned from my son that, in the online version of Call of Duty 2, where players from all over the world simultaneously join game re-enactments of World War II battles – electing either to be one of the Allies or a German – dying in battle but always being reborn, or ‘spawned’ – there are always some players who set themselves in easy shooting range of one of a number of spawn sites where the players are reborn and, as often as other players are spawned in that place, the player now known as a ‘spawn camper’ kills them on the spot before they can move.
