people are actually really helpful to new players who don't try to act as retarded as possible while trying to make everyone dislike them

I only started to seriously want to get better at this game when it's dying and highlander likely only has one, maybe two more seasons until it'll be like two divisions or something stupid

tony people don't hate every new player, people just hate you because you're annoying and unlikable

At the same time is he annoying and unlikable because he's a dick, or because he's, say, awkward?

Treating someone poorly because of something that isn't related to their character makes you an asshole.

track/soccer I haven't decided which one I want to play yet

idk man reading what what he says in pugchamp and on tftv leads me to believe hes just an attention seeker

The first pug I played with him he dropped me on like 60% of ubers and ran at people going for saw kills under badlands mid. I asked him to try a bit more serious and he said "lol i'm just memeing I wasn't planning on tryharding but OK" and then proceeded to play just as bad the rest of the pug while still saying he was trolling. He was on a new account and he was playing so poor and being so stupid I actually thought he was an alt made to troll on purpose in pugchamp.

I'm fine with new players in pugchamp even though I don't really play there to teach new people how to play but to just keep saying that you're not trying and fucking around when people ask you to stop is seriously completely obnoxious and ignoring everyone who is giving you advice then going on the forums and saying the community hates new players is just stupid

It's always frustrates me that every time I'm off TF2 for a couple weeks or so playing another game, then come back again, do a little warm-up, then play a PUG where you did horribly due to rust and stuff and your team mates is mad on you because you're shit without even knowing I was off TF2.

I let one of my teammates edit our team page and look what he's done to it.

I was going to vent about something that happened today but instead I'm just blown away at the greatness that is your roamer's alias.
Dat Walrus Livin In Ur Piano.

I'm sitting here waiting for my animators' to hand me in animations for a Saxxy entry literally due in just hours and it is taking all of my SHEER WILLPOWER to not enter a state of panic.

Good luck I really hope you win!

i hate peopple who use gunboats on ammomod
like play nosplash u faggot

i'm fine with that it is what it is, but that wasn't what i was saying. people are actually scared to try and get into comp tf2 because of how critical everyone is about everything.
why does everyone bring up how everyone hates me in everything? i could literally ask for a hud and people will say something about how annoying i am.

the thread about tagg leaving died before i could post the b4nny die white girls tweet and get upfragged T_T

lol I love reading these ideas. By the way, this is said over and over about every single game on other games' forums too. There are always going to be people who are just annoying and bitchy to play with, just like there are always going to be genuinely nice people that want to help newer players. You can say some games have slightly more or less critical players than others, but the disparity isn't that much (and it's mostly dependent on the size of the game). You can't be serious by practically suggesting that any other game isn't like that--there are critical/annoying people to new players?

when i first started playing tf2 pugs:
there were people who were annoying in the sense you're describing, but there were so few that I didn't care, and it turned out that most of those same players are still in esea-open (if they didn't quit). the only way you'd find it critical is if you don't like criticism.

when i first started playing esea pugs / cevo pugs / mm in csgo:
pretty similar experience in all of them in the sense that there were always going to be annoying people with huge egos that complain their teammates don't know what they're doing. there were quite a few more of these annoying players than in my tf2's experience.

when i first started ow mm:
same as tf2

dota/lol:
I can't really justify whether or not this is true because I have no personal experience, but I heard people in LoL and dota, for example, have a fair share of critical/annoying players and that it can get pretty annoying.

Also, almost every person (from my experience) that complains about people being too critical to new players are either trolls or they have huge egos and can't take critism, so when somebody says, for example, "you should've popped uber there" they get incredibly offended and explain why it wasn't their fault they didn't press m2. If they truly are just overly critical (actually toxic), though, there's really never a reason to take them seriously by getting upset.

edit: it looks like you're the troll, as saam described that you have trolled in a pug and you're now offended.

tldr: every game has toxic players, and it almost seems like, interestingly, the games that have a bigger competitive community, have a larger percentage of annoying players.

i'm not offended; I know i'm a troll. I'm not even denying that

nothing you say matters. your reputation exceeded your intentions. you are now wasting whatever resources this site uses to run. Many players have asked your questions with far more genuine curiosity than you hold, and they have gotten realistic and accurate answers. you do not deserve them.

Thanks Man

i've been running everyday and i have gotten no where, i want to be slimguy dammit

my ex has a history of mental issues and now thinks im the spawn of satan or something, so she's trying to ruin my life by making outrageously false allegations. I can't go see my friends anymore since I moved schools, and i'm literally trespassed which disallows me to legally be on that campus despite her allegations being proven false.

I closed the wrong tab and lost the post I was writing for this thread.

TF.TV doesnt have a country option for Isle of Man :(

Also tf.tv's 2minute cooldown on posting.

My ISP is dog shit.
There are no other ISPs in my area.

KILL ME

I couldn't do it. I couldn't help carry my team to a proper Saxxy that almost certain could have won Extended due to the landscape of how the Saxxy's this year is basically a bunch of bored pro animators as well as people trying to do different things after Valve killed the time limit from 5 to 7 minutes and encouraged last minute videos. I tried so fucking hard - but in the end, I couldn't pick up the slack that people gave me.

I also guess some people could not deliver on the craziest fucking deadlines that I'm so (terribly) used to delivering on when I told people we could do it since I was used to doing it. I put four animators on one scene last night in a desperate attempt to finish, but we really rushed it and fucked it due to poor organization. That team deserves to be treated better and I resolve to do that since our project is continuing as a non-Saxxy project.

i hate people that play mge to win and not to like practice
as in like playing like a massive retard and doing shit like shotgun denying and prefiring or doing shit you'll wouldn't do in an actual game just to get mge elo
it's so fuckin dumb

its mge

if someone could just fucking provide some sg server free reservation for lobbies like for tf2center or tf2stadium then we could have some active asian lobbies. we can have fucking idle/trade servers but not a single server dedicated to comp tf2. eu/na have plenty of options to play 6s/hl but here, there is not and we don't even have single asian dm server

People rioting because Donald J. Trump beat Hillary in the presidential candidacy race, but mostly for the fact that they are not even giving him a chance ;/
