You all make good points from all sides of the argument. The main reason I started this post is cause most of the people who complain about snipers just make stupied comments like "Sniper suck ass" with out even proving a point. I like hearing the analyisists.
On the clan issue, I found out that most of the omaha games where there is a large number of clan members in it, are usually the ones with the best team work. There are some snipers, but they usuall just stick on the beach for the first minute or so and cooperate with the team, which I think is perfect (like pointed out, as long as theres not too many snipers).
If your bored, and some of the Allies on your team are just sniping on the beach...try turning friendly fire on and having fun with that maybe??? lol
Put seriously, I think when used effectively, in a non-camping way (and only a few at a time) sniping is an important part of the gameply.
