BLoodSireI'm not so sure it isn't their job. One of the things I discussed with ESEA when trying to become an admin myself was greater transparency between the league and the community. The TF2 admins can't go update the client, that shouldn't be expected. But they should be serving as the line of communcation between the league and the players. This is playoffs, invite playoffs: the most important time for everyone involved with ESEA TF2. You would think the TF2 admins would be ensuring the functionality of the esea client via communicating through the appropriate channels; and should they be unable to have the client determined as functional, they should be communicating with the players, the broadcasters, somebody on the community side, to ensure 15 people do not set aside time to participate in a thing that will not be happening, and the thousands interested in seeing the thing do not keep getting their hopes up.
I'm sure the current ESEA TF2 admins have their own frustrations, and it wouldn't be right to peg this just on them, but I still feel that lack of transparency and communcation with the TF2 community is damning as well as mind-boggling..
honestly I couldn't agree more with you, but really what are they going to "communicate" thats going to make the situation better? tell you that its being worked on when you already know its being worked on? They have 0 power when it comes to fixing or updating the client/servers so I really don't understand the witch hunting. I can't speak for killing cause I don't ask him for help much but tri is ALWAYS on point when asking him to take care of reschedules, tickets or problems within his capability.
The situation sucks, and I agree that it sucks, but everyone needs to chill and realize that our three tf2 admins make up a tiny percentage of the ESEA company and its not all on them to make everything magically work, this is a problem with ESEA at its core not our community admins. so please stop the bandwagon hate, they do as much as they are capable of doing.
(also why is everyone saying its tri and killings job to make sure the client updated? it literally isn't)
