You will always have these individuals on servers and to quote Skanky's sig..

"That one goes without saying"

that was mine! :evil:

Yes, please. especially clan members, can we at least pretend like we are a nicer class of people than that which can be found on CS? Please don't get annoyed if a noob does something wrong likes spamms the spawn or goes into the spawn room. Just inform them that it is agains the rules. Everyone goes off the deep end, and we end up losing a potential player. Try not to act indifferent either. Peeps ask quesitons all the time, and a lot of times nobody answers.. that's disheartening for a new player. The more you act cool, the more cool players we'll get. Give a little love peeps <3 KK?

This game obviously needs more people, why the hell anyone would deter newcomers is beyond me. Stop being arrogant douchebags because you think you already know how to play the game because if you don't, there won't be a game to play. There's enough dumb assholes in the real world, don't be one in a video game community that's meant to be fun for everyone playing.

Every single one of us was a newbie to some game in the past. Don't forget how much fun it was to explore a new game with friendly people as you learned more about it.

Wherever an admin feels this thread belongs feel free to place it there. And also feel free to sticky it to everyone's forehead.

Grow up. If you can't handle someone saying mean things then leave the server. Everyone knows that Fortress based games are made up of 80% assholes so you might as well deal with it.

How the fuck is a noob supposed to know that 80% of us are assholes? If they have played tfc for any length of time there not a noob they understand the basic concept. Thats the kind of attitude people are trying to change to give the noobs a chance to grow into something other than a noob.

It would appear that you have a very low opinion of FF players. I can tell you this, if you carry an attitude like this into a server and treat somebody like you're an ass, its going to drive them off. Period. If there is one thing we know about people its that if they are playing with people that are talkative and enjoyable to be around, they'll stay. They may not be enamored with the game they're playing but they'll hang out just cuz they like the people that are on teh server at the moment. Ive seen this happen time and time again. It happens alot on the AE server, it happens on the NS server. Another thing, i know that many of you are very skilled at this game and tfc and you like to win and hone your skills and all that, but your absence from pubs, is really starting to hurt the game. I know there are many of you that feel that playing in pubs is a waste of your skills. But, perhaps if you guys were in pubs and talking to people and/or helping them, it would increase the player base?? In addition, just bs'ing with them on occasion is a good thing. Let people know what this player base is all about. There have been a few instances where I personally would try to get someone's attention through steam or whatever, only to get ignored. This is not good. If your ingame, let the person know that your ingame. Be as helpful as possible. If yo dont want to, then say something like, "I dont know if i could be of much help with that", or "Im kinda busy at the moment"..easy enough??
