It's just a quirk of the physics engine that bodies have a mass, and therefore can cause damage. Same as a vehicle falling on you, except that's classed as a collision even if no-one is in the car. Nothing to get too excited about.

Like when you take a shot at someone who's sniping at you - you can both kill each other at the same time, but it's 2 kills - not "killed by the Guardians".

Gunfire; not caused by other players?

I've had it in Slayer and CTF modes - it's part of the game physics. I've even seen it happen in the single player game to unwitting AI team-mates

Hi. This is when you're killed by something not caused by another player, an explosion, gunfire, vehicles or falling. Happens mostly when you're fighting at close quarters and someone drops a grenade - the velocity of the dead player's body is enough to kill you, as per the physics of the game. But no-one gets the kill, hence "killed by the Guardians".

Are you playing CTF? The 'Guardians' may be referring to the protectors of the other flag - your enemies.

I haven't played MP for a while now, and I don't recall it mentioning any guardians - although I rarely took notice of the announcements :)
