so i caught up on all the drama (thanks reddit, teamfortress.tv) - yeah, ok the situation sucks.
but this is not an easy service to run. i know y'all think it's just "some code" but operationally sites like tf2center are difficult to maintain. hence my comment about stadium looking nice and all, but it's going to have to be so much more than that.
the competitive community in tf2 is small but instead of joining forces and working shit out, it is constantly splintering further and further. what should be personal conversations explode into public, self perpetuating scandals...
there need to be better, more diplomatic, and less hysterical (and i don't mean funny) ways to solve this. and who is to say that stadium is not going to have yet another bunch of shitheels behind it? maybe they're nice now... but the comp community doesn't exactly have a great track record in terms of management. (the top players still play in ESEA despite the fact that they fucking hacked your computers (twice now) and that the people who run ESEA have been laughing at the tf2 comp community while essentially holding it hostage...)
