TF2 Happenings --- PLEASE READ ----

[Akira]

My 2 cents... You can't always make everyone happy. I can make almost every person in the world happy, but there will ALWAYS be atleast one person that would disagree.

One person may play to win (that is their fun) and others play to mess around (which is their fun), and some shoot at walls for 5 minutes (which btw Dunno made me chuckle).

But then again, if Dunno (a co-founder) says it.. I will do it. So I know I can personally get too caught up in a game, but hey... he's right. Some people have weird fun... as long as it's not disrespectful (porn sprays or racism, etc) then hell... Take it upon yourself to pick up their slack lol.

(Note: I haven't slept... So i'm about 30% sure what I just wrote, so don't take offense or anything... if i was offensive at all).

Thanks CatEyes, I'm frequently the one to switch but when I'm on the hurt team I just wanted to make sure it was reasonable to switch players for that reason.

From now on I will make sure when people get angry at the people goofin' around, I'll point out that there's no rule requiring a player to play the game a certain way, we all goof around with low numbers right? =)

Yeah, the way you all have put things really has altered my perspective, I'm trying my best to see it from all points of view. It would definitely seem best to promote a friendly, accepting environment than an intense, competitive one. Although Dunno's case was an extreme one, his point is still valid. Even if it takes a little effort, it's clear to me now that accomodating all playstyles is a high priority in OWS.

I apologize if I came off as snobbish or arrogant, it was just something that has been kind of fuzzy for me. Now that I think about it, in the case I provided earlier, the pubbers who would leave are most likely the kind that can't accomodate other playstyles, which is not productive to the kind of atmosphere that we aim for.

Heya everyone!

I know I don't get to play as much as some of you, and my work blocks access to the forums, so I really don't get to post much either.....which kinda leads me to not talking much during matches.....soooo some of you might not know me, because I'm an app.

I just thought I would say that I have fully enjoyed every match I've played on an OWS server. Your members are top notch folks, and I really like shooting rockets and fire at you. Sometimes healing you. Sometimes.

Anyway, being an app, I'm still new around here, so please send me a PM if anything I've done in-game was frowned upon. I know there was a pretty lucky one-shot shotgun kill the other night...probably pissed someone off, but it was luck, I assure you.

Much thanks for letting me play on your servers, please let me know if there is anything I can do to help with the growing pains. You know..cause I'm an app and all.....

Sincerely
-Lubu

ps. Did I mention I was an app?

im going to second masterlubu's post in that i am new to tf2 (less than 2 weeks of playing), so a lot of the details i dont know. if im doing something cheap or frowned upon by the community or clan, chances are it's because i dont know rather than im being a jerk lol. plz plz tell me and i would be happy to change it.

i got what is considered spawn camping down in this game and avoid that, but sometimes i may snipe from the same position all round aimed at a primary doorway/main hall...like the downstairs main doorway on the map thats made out of playing cards. is that wrong? sometimes when =1= members tell me something, i dont know if its sarcasm or not due to my lack of familiarity w/ the unspoken rules of the game.
