tf2lobby never went to shit lol

tf2lobby shut down because floor_master didn't want to pay for upkeep if there was an alternative service available

all you cynics are horrible

McScuse me
As long as I remain on the TF2Stadium team you can be sure that we will be meme friendly, and therefor, not shit.

Tried one lobby on stadium, it seemed fine. I like that it's individual ready-up instead of a team-based one, makes it easier to avoid accidents where you start the game but a couple people are still afk. The look is pretty good too. Of course overall it can't be a huge departure of tf2center because that site in itself is good, PR and the admins were the problem. Although I've personally never had any major issue with said admins, I have friends who did and sympathize with them, so it's nice to have an alternative.

Hopefully open source means not only that it's easier to keep that PR aspect in check, but it's also easier for new people to join the project and add functions and/or fix bugs, because in theory anyone can jump in at any time. Good luck guys.

100% false
Mike's alt was banned after he played that match, I know this because I put the ban in myself.

If he wants to make an alt. fine. I'll just ban it and his IPs.
I'm not losing any sleep over him

Honestly TF2Pickup has turned to shit. Stadium is much better.

If both sites do push for more updates and changes to make their site better and better, then hopefully both will stay around. A big negative of TF2Center are their mods and I'm pretty sure that TF2Stadium will take over and replace TF2Center will be more obsolete if this isn't changed.

Once I logged onto TF2Center and said the word "stadium" and I got chat banned

I'd really appreciate it if people could stop trolling the Center admins by the Stadium site.
It just makes us all look bad...

Lmao Ninjamoocow,

said in mainchat when he started permbanning people who have two thousand games played on the site: that maybe he should be careful with what he is doing, becuase he was saying something alongside "im going to ban everyone permanently himself and that they should "bring it on". Get banned for two weeks for that line, with as reasoning multiple chat trolling, after saying a line, and then i noticed i had another month old expired chat ban for a day from him, for saying an roman saying about lingua franca's after he told people to speak english.

By random chance, have masternoob as medic on our team not a half hour later on stadium, tried, telling him that permbanning regulars, from the site, for something like that, is kind of silly, and masternnoob just took it personal and went obtuse for the rest of the game. alright, then.

I can really understand the underlying reasoning for not wanting to see your chat filled up with people spamming another site, but there are other, more effective ways on achieving this, becuase if you ever played on a community server, if you have some admin, alienating part of your community, you might end up with even more counter productive hassle and petty drama rising up at any opportunity.

don't bother, he's not okay
sorry, didnt wanna derail

Did that cause login problems on TF2Center?

Yes, it doesnt let you login if you have TF2Pickup in your name, i've tried it couple of times and people that are sponsored by us and had it in their name also couldn't log in

But if they removed it, suddenly they could log in?!?

It doesn't cause any real problems other then TF2c not wanting any other site to be advertised at all. So they block logins if you have a org they don't like in your name.
