The only way I've been able to pass trimp maps is from the occasionally speed boost you get from doing a sudden strafe jump. I'm wondering if this might have something to do with my key config, since I have jump as mouse 2 since I'm used to jumping like a bastard.

If anyone who's an expert at bunny hopping has time to kill, would you be interested in testing it out with mouse 2 as your jump key to see if it's something with that key config at all?
I use mouse2 for jumping and i can bhop perfectly fine.

Same. Chilled, try just gaining speed with strafe with sv_gravity 0 in aardvark yard or something similar. Once you get the feel for gaining speed in the air with only strafe buttons and mouse movements, bunnyhopping is absurdly easy (zero gravity is how FF training teaches air control and bunnyhopping ).

What's wrong with that? Obviously TFC players arent going to move on to FF, so the only real source of competitive players is from new players. Imagine TFC 1999.

Even if I wasn't using WASD, I'd still be using any keys on the main section of my keyboard. It's just that WASD is right next to so many other useful keys, whereas the directional arrows are kinda...isolated from a lot, assuming a traditional keyboard layout. There's a lot of empty space between those keys and anything else you could start mapping.

weapons (1-5)
tilde
tab
shift (zoom)
ctrl
space
q (prevweapon)
e
c (toss)
v (voicespam)
t/y (chat)
f/g (grens)
f-keys (binds)

List goes on.

To each his own though, I suppose.

And shifting to ESDF adds even more keys to the list.

I use the arrow keys, with easy access to the numeric pad, Enter, RT-Shift, RT-CTRL, \, delete, end, page down.

For me, it's easy to differentiate between keys with that hand, because of the distance to them. I still use T/Y for typed chat(because I'm not usually in a place where I will be killed while typing). Flag info, spray, voice chat, nades, detpack(for demoman), and a few others are easily reachable while using the arrows. As we both said, to each their own.

I've been using it since I first started playing FPSs. The only downside is that you have to manually change all your hotkeys in any game you play.

In Tribes 2, ESDF is default!

We should go play some Tribes 2.
