the junkyard
Skial 5Gorge, Skial Badwater, Stompfest doomsday if i feel like fucking around, and i used to play skg 24/7 standin till it died.
The only place where I can consistently have fun is the Top Notch Payload Rotation server. The Hyperion Rotation can serve as a nice substitute, but the genuine article is hard to beat when it comes to fun pubbing.
Used to be skial dustbowl NY 1/2. Then I got perma banned. Now its Lotus clan
Falcon0408Clan of Doom's Toy Fort server (EU) is awesome. Some good players on there if you go on at the right times, bunch of mature regulars too so the mic conversations are rarely worth muting. /quote]

almost always full and has a good chunk of regulars on every day

Favorite story of any pub was definitely my first times playing spy. I was on a terrible dustbowl server, and we were being spawn camped on the last stage for 20ish minutes. With about 50 seconds left or so, I decide "whatever I'll play spy and try to backcap." Some scouts had already managed to bonk there way to A and cap it. Capping B was a whole other story, though. So by this time I probably had about 20 hours on soldier, a few hours on scout, half an hour on heavy, and a couple minutes in other classes. I was still very new to the game.
So my team has managed to push out to where we have the three doors that lead outside. I choose the far right one and cloak before exiting. -WOW THATS A LOT OF PROJECTILES JEEZE LOUSIE- I somehow manage to dodge all the projectiles and round the first corner, still cloaked, finding a sentry there. I manage to jump over the sentry and climb the stairs. "Sweet, the worst is over," I think. Then I see there are only 35-40 seconds left. I manage to cloak as a sniper WHILE PRESSING W- it was a serious deal then. I didn't expect anything to be at last though... I round the final corner with probably 20-25 seconds left. I see a lone engineer whacking at a level three sentry right on the ledge behind the point with a dispenser behind him...
"Darn," I think. I have no clue what I'm doing with this class, having played it probably twice, maybe three times before this occasion. I know the basic mechanics though, I have a sapper that will disable the sentry gun. I have a knife that will kill the engineer if I hit him in the back. I walk up, disguised as the sniper still. I manage to jump on the ledge, and then on the gun. Then I hear an all too familiar voice "5..." I sapped the gun and dispenser (I didn't think about how sapping the dispenser was kind of pointless, I was new). "4..." I jumped from the sentry, over the engineer, to the dispenser, turned around, and stabbed the engineer who was still trying to fix his sentry. "3..." I jump over the breaking sentry onto the point to start capping.
"2... 1..." Heart pumping, I hear most satisfying "overtiiime" of all time. I finish off the cap, and my team goes crazy in voice chat. Up to that point, I had started getting bored of this game. I had never done anything clutch, and that moment seriously made me re-interest myself in this game, and I'm really grateful for it, as it's given me the chance to meet all of you guys here in the competitive community.

So yeah, that's my favorite pub story. My favorite pub server is actually some random pub that used to be called "EZF Dustbowl." I forget what EZF stands for, but if you go through a few steps, they'll give you some pretty neat member perks. All-in-all, they're a very nice group of folks who aren't the greatest at tf2, but they're really fun to play with and there aren't many engies to worry about. I'd highly recommend if you like dustbowl. It's now under the name "Novus Network"

I used to play in ATG's 24/7 badwater server. Lot of fun stories with that community I know I met a lot of competitive players in that server too.

The only pub servers I joined regularly were RAGE (RIP) and Y2FC, which was supposed to be a continuation of the RAGE server. Was one of my favorite communities, and half of the old regulars are still on my friends list.
Falcon0408Clan of Doom's Toy Fort server (EU) is awesome.
I'll back this up on the player quality. A very interesting level of play, it's way above your usual pub standard. It's just a shame Toy Fort maps aren't balanced at all.
I've been playing on a server known only as Joey Buttz's Server #1, I have no idea how I found it but it's brilliant, except when it starts putting bots in the server because it's late.

skial 24/7 Dustbowl NY+
Most of the people there are pretty interesting and the conversations they have are nice too.

Old favorites: [iO] dustbowl/gravelpit 32 man servers (both are dead now), No Hereos fastlane/orange server use to be fun.
I'd still play on No Hereos servers except i got IP banned by the head admin for playing scout on their "competitive 32 man instant re-spawn" Warpath server. I wasn't being "competitive" enough and wouldn't switch classes...yes that actually happened.
Current: Skial dustbowl or badwater NY servers for my pub engy fix.

Can you get me unbanned? I got perma banned for killing people on jump servers and the forum admin said no and wrote an essay summarizing my sourcebans record and calling me a horrile person
