First time I hopped on TFC it was right after I first bought half life in 99 (I was 12 at the time) and I was attempting to play online with 56k... I joined an empty Hunted server and was quite put-off by how slowly the crowbar swung so I didn't try again until a few months later. That was when I got DSL It was awfully daunting at first, getting used to the maps and the classes and dealing with all the incredibly skilled people but obviously the more I played it, the better I got. Since then i've been in and out of TFC, usually taking breaks from CS when it got boring/frustrating, from DOD when the Axis kills everyone all the time, or from UT when server modifications got too stupid. I once even took a break from the HL2 single player to ease into some TFC. I feel that all the maps and classes in TFC are well balanced, and the required teamwork has rarely been matched by other games. It's been a crazy-fun 6 years and im looking forward to many more.
