You seem to abuse the Poll system $loth. Besides, Counter-Strike is evil. [addsig]

I only played the betas back when I was in high school. Since one of the last betas (don't remember which) I stopped playing because it got really annoying. Then dod came out and I picked that up around one of the later betas, had to take some time to adjust to the retail 1.0 though. But now it's all good and I don't touch CS. [addsig]

Oh man, John, you're asking for it here

No, it isn't that way with all games, not ones that are harder to play or less popular (still being popular though).

Whenever I play dod the majority of the people playing are skilled and very far from annoying (besides killing you constantly)

In CS There's almost always some person doing their hardest to annoy everyone on the server by being an ass. And they usually come in spades.

But as for the actual games them selves, in a LAN or something as such I'd rather play CS, simply because dod isn't as fun with a small group of people unless the map is incredibly small. I don't really play anything else (HL related) to be honest. Most deathmatches are fun with two or more people. [addsig]

But if you're an admin on a server, like when i was[b4 the server stopped] you can always kick them if they're ruining the game

... are you assuming that everyone is going to be an administrator of a server at some point or that they automatically have the ability to control kicking/banning?

I shouldn't have to be an admin to play an enjoyable game of anything ... [addsig]

The more I look back at it, the CS community is probably no worse than any other big game. Just looking at HL and its mods you have the clueless masses playing killboxes in HLDM, a bunch of cheaters and people who take the game way too seriously in TFC, a ton of retards in the NS community... anyways, CS is still alot of fun even after all these years, and nothing can be more satisfying than blasting people with pistol headshots and making them look like fools. I didn't like the direction the betas took in the beginning, but I must admit they made a kickass mod in the end.

I first got CS with my HL platinum pack, that wouldve been 1.0. Then I dl'ed 1.5 and got bots for it. I only ever play CS against bots or at LANs, and not very often.

BTW, the CS fags can't be as bad as the BF42 fags. Ever had a CS n00b repeatedly bazooka your own teammates just because they "stole" a plane? Whats worse is, the people who do that sort of thing until they actually get to use the plane can't fly the plane and crash into a hill or something. Which is why I don't play games online.

The problem with all games is that once they reach a certain amount of appeal, all the idiots start flooding the damn thing. Take NS for example. With v1.0 and v2.0, the NS community hardly had anyone out to annoy everyone else, and people were, for the most part, freindly to the new players. Compared to now, the NS community was a damned utopia. But then NS v3.0 came out, and with it the combat mode, which was essentially NS with all the factors that made it such the intelligent, team-roientated game it was stripped away. What was left was a frantic, simplistic, and overly-unbalanced game mode that attracted people whgo were too daunted by the classic NS mode.

This, of course, atrracted hundreds upon hundreds of people. whose only online gaming experience was CS. And with them came the vulgarity, the cheaters, the tkers and so on. I'm not trying to say that these weren't present before combat was introduced, they were definately in the minority. Of course, once people were done raping the combat mode of all it's worth, they all jumped into the classic game maps:

"how do i increase my damage?"

"where's the upgrade menu?"

"how do I get leap?"

"what the hell is a sensory chamber"?

"hey! how come I respawned as a skulk? Where's my cloaked-carapace-celerity onos?!"

"oh wow, you can go INSIDE the command console?!"

"wow, the mapper did a really good job on those turrets! The entity setup must be insane!"

Ok, fair enough, some of those are over-exagerrated. But some of them do show up on classic NS games, and if they showed up every now and then, in a polite tone of voice, I wouldn't care. But people have to get angry, they spam the message area, and furthermore, effectively give up trying to understand and just go on vain killing spree. Coupled with the ever increasingly-unbalanced gameplay, NS's reputation as a community and mod is dwindling. It's even worse on the Friendly Fire servers...

Oh man, that felt good. Ramble ramble ramble... [addsig]

personally, i never liked CS, not because of the game, or the community, but because i like the simplicity of HLDM only.

TFC never appealed to me either, so its not game issues or the people it attracts.

IMO, nothing beats a good game of DM.. my favorite of all, ever made for HL was Oz Deathmatch.. simple bliss

i'm not assuming that everyone is an admin of a server, what i'm saying is that if you are an admin of a server then use what you have, like they say.....use it or lose it!
