I love the name, UglyMuffins!
I'll try to answer these questions as best as I can
Typically, the key to everything is sportsmanship - we try to approach the game as gentlemen.

In Short: Yes and Yes.
- The rules about "air camping air" are focused mainly on spawned air vehicles which are not yet occupied. The idea is to give aircraft a chance to contribute to a battle. Especially in our early BF2 campaigns, we noticed in that aircraft could absolutely determine an entire map... this made life pretty depressing for the losing team.
If the enemy aircraft has been engaged in combat and then has decided to land somewhere for repairs... then they're fair game. They've had their chance to contribute to the fight already
- C4 on vehicles is certainly allowed. Any vehicles in cap-able flags are fair game at any point of a fight, and it's up to the people jumping into the jeep/APC/Tank to sweep it for mines or C4 (I've seen mines placed at their wheels before). In BF3 it's incredibly difficult to successfully place C4 on an enemy vehicle inside their uncap due to it being out-of-bounds... so it hasn't really come up. Technically it's allowed, so long as the opposing team owns at least one cap-able flag.
Note: you should always check with your squad leader (SL) or field commander (FC) before leaving C4 on an empty vehicle... odds are they'll prefer you keep it and use it (or assign it to someone)!

Yup!
This was a huge talking point previously, and during our pre-campaign scrims we certainly tried both settings. At the moment we allow all weapons/unlocks... but this is something that is always subject to change if the majority of our community prefers it to.
Everything comes up to a vote at some point

Friendly Fire is always turned on. This is a setting that's been around since the beginning, and is probably not going to change (not impossible, but improbable). Team work leads to this not being a big issue... and the occasional friendly fire "whoopsie" can lead to a lot of laughs
AppleBananaMuffins wrote:4.) Will 3d spotting be on?
We just voted on this! We had 3D spotting turned off for BF3 Campaign 1, but the majority voted to turn it on for C2... so it's on. I wonder if it'll last through C3?
DoYouKnowtheMuffinMan wrote:5.) Are players allowed to bunny-hop (constantly jumping - I know servers that disallow it since it's 'unrealistic'). Bunny hopping also makes you run slightly faster so...
The game dynamics allow for "bunny hopping" and not really defined as a glitch/exploit, so it's currently not against the rules at GC. "Bunny hopping" and "Dolphin Diving" were especially hot topics during the BF2 days, oh man... many an argument to be had! Ultimately, you can do it but you'll probably be regarded as "less honorable" by some members of the community if it's a repeat occurrence, if that makes sense?
