I understand competition as well as the next guy. Competition is generally regulated though. So outlawing trashtalking would eliminate that element, which I feel adds nothing to the game (though it's obvious people disagree with me on this) and you'd still get to do your very best to win.
TheManWithNoNameHallowIt doesn't happen in every kind of competition. It's absolutely frowned upon in countless of sports.
shit talking?
in what competition does shit talking not happen? chess? Chinese checkers?
...in the (major and even minor) sports and in almost every video game shit talking happens.
please, give me a reasonably competitive team game where shit talking does not happen.
Not saying it doesn't happen, I'm saying it's frowned upon (ie sportmanship is encouraged to the fullest). I know the cross country skiing community generally looks down on Northug for being a bit cocky in his interviews, and that's in not even proper shit talking.
It being frowned upon kind of kills the argument that we should encourage it because it's okay in sports. I'm saying that in a lot of sports, obviously not all, it's not.

marmadukeGRYLLSHallowbut it intensifies the game, so it's healthy right?
you're not very smart, are you?
i bet you support medals for "participation"
i bet you think kids shouldn't get cut from teams but rather "b" teams get made
i bet you aren't very good at anything that's competitive
you gonna cry yourself to sleep on your cock shaped pillow tonight?
wtf man how did it get from "we disagree on a very simple matter" to "you're a shit person aren't you?"
mebhey euros can you stop posting please
this thread was already hard enough to read without the yellow glare coming off your teeth
get out there's no room for you fat americans
marmadukeGRYLLSHallowpunching someone:
throws them off their game - check
might hurt their feelings - check (call the hurt feelings police amirite)
doesn't have anything to do with your skill in tf2 - check
murdering someone:
throws them off their game - check
might hurt their feelings - check
doesn't have anything to do with your skill in tf2 - check
flawless comparisons
but it intensifies the game, so it's healthy right?
in sweden (dunno about the states) trashtalking can in a lot of cases be considered illegal (albeit with minor punishment) so that's irrelevant
punching someone:
throws them off their game - check
might hurt their feelings - check (call the hurt feelings police amirite)
doesn't have anything to do with your skill in tf2 - check
suckerpunching someone midgame can be justified in the same way you're justifying the shittalk.
The fact that it exists in sports doesn't mean it isn't fucking caveman behaviour.
You know what probably throws b4nny off his game? Being better than him. Maybe next time that can be enough.
To continue on the discussion in the CEVO thread: I really think it's a matter of preference. Logs.tf have more features and zoob seems to be doing a better job running it all, but I don't look at anything on logs.tf that I can't find on ss. I prefer logs.tf though, because that's what I've used the last year. And I think the same is true for people claiming ss is superior
