What To Do When You've Lost

One of the most frustrating things in NS is that slow death when you know your team is going to lose. I find myself leaving servers and joining another game, but i dont want to do this so my question is what do you do to keep yourself busy when you know the game is already lost.
I.e. when the marines are level 3 HA and aliens have 1 hive, or rines have no hives and no res and aliens are already on onos fade.

Aliens: No freaking fun anywhere.... I usually F4...
Or get a bunch of ppl to gorge on top of the hive and spit the **** out of the marines... that can be quite hilarious......

if im pub comming and I am certain theres no comeback in sight, i will ask if anyone wants to comm for practice, and get out. I dont prolong games, ending either way.
if im marine and I know for a fact that the game is finished, i will use my leet rambo skills and find a nice hiding spot <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
as aliens i like fighting till the end, no matter how bad it is
Meh, its always fun.
As for aliens... mass xeno rush always raises a smile.
You know, this is my most fave way. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
and as kharaa, well.... do something weird. harass base or (un)important outposts, start trying to parakill, etc.
but you can't always win - that's life
or if they dont have sc, i hide somwhere (with an hmg)
as alien i try and parasite as many marines as possible.
Mines galore: Sell everything but IPs and armory. Spend it all on mines. Watch the boom when a gorge or acid rocket fade comes along. Laugh at the onos who blows himself up. Since your res is wasted, it ends faster.
But the sell everything and buy weapons plan is an okay alternative.
When it comes to the kharaa, there isn't much you can do. Losing is really boring for them. Tell the marines to hurry up. If needed, give them an ultamatem (if you don't end it within 5 minutes, we'll f4 and no sweet hive pop). It's rude to just f4 without warning.
Well someone had to say it.
but if not and i thinck i can still win i go for as many kills as poss but messing about is kinda fun but i do hate it when it takes ages to die

yeah its fun being a fades friend going round as a team i done that many a time lots of fun!
I know many people don't like gorge hideouts, but I don't do it till I know for sure that the aliens will lose.(ie marine have 6+ rts, HA/JP and 2 hives)

Mega fun with knives and onos. They just can't seem to get near you.
As marine.............I just start chatin on how we should just get along or try to pet an Onos <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> .
