because they used to be good, but looks like people with your attitude were finally able to kill them?
Mission accomplished?
edit: And good doesn't mean 100% rap face all the time. There was plenty of joking around, but joking around was done appropriately and timely. I'm guessing lately a bunch of idiots have just been griefing constantly trying to joke around but the rest of the server ain't want any of it so they just end up griefing and that's not what the server should be about.
And no, being a shit server isn't what the pa servers used to be about, don't even try that shit.
I've played on them way longer than you, you a scrub, kill yourself, etc...

Have you really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
Hahaha!!! 4chan!!!
Good one bro
It takes profoundly stupid people to not make the connection between the dumb shit happening on the servers, and its population being 0/24 99.5% of the week.
I'm not saying "just stay away", I'm having trouble understanding why you would want to play on the PA servers in the first place if you don't like the things that makes them what they are.
So you're saying that griefing is the PA style and we should just learn to enjoy it?

I see the word "griefing" thrown around a lot but unless there's been a major change in the 3 weeks I haven't played this game people have forgotten what actual griefing is.
There's been punching heavies, map complaining and fake teleporters for as long as I have been playing on these servers, and it's the reason I've played this game as long as I have.

For the record, the reason the servers have been so empty recently is new games + a shooter that's about two and a half years old + no updates for a while.
For the record, the server policy as I understand it is that it's majority rule. If someone is griefing, and by that I mean deliberately ruining the player experience for the majority, no matter what that majority-decided playstyle currently is, they get told to put up or shut up. If they persist, they get a kick.
So no, do not fire weapons when 11/12 people are having fun playing melee only. Do not fuck around in your cliquey little group when you have people queuing up to play for real and folks on your team actually trying hard. Definitely do not actively sabotage people's playing experience by doing stuff like teleporters to nowhere.
Of course there are tolerance levels for this, and stupid shit can be and is funny a lot of the time, and there is of course no right or wrong way to have fun. But when it comes to detracting from other people's fun, there are limits, and we're here to enforce them.
there's a huge difference between a punching heavy and a crouching punching heavy.
One can go on massive kill streaks at the right time, the other is absolutely useless and only there to take up a player slot from other people that actually want to play.
Sav your tf2 is basically 10-11 people working towards a common goal and 1-2 shitheads entertaining no one but themselves and actively working to harm other's playing experience. There's no way around calling this, and you, dumb as hell.

"actively working to harm other's playing experience"
I'm sure those crouching punching heavies were twirling their waxed moustaches in celebration of yet another perfectly executed evil scheme.

A week or two ago there was a griefing engineer playing, intentionally setting up in empty corners of the map, sending people to bad places with the teleporter, etc.
He got kicked and possibly banned.
I'm not saying "just stay away", I'm having trouble understanding why you would want to play on the PA servers in the first place if you don't like the things that makes them what they are.
You either get awesome games with mostly great players (and a few newbies, just because people are cool and friendly) or you get mad hatter stupid party time, to the point where people are dropping out because of it. Probably a 90%-10% split.
But maybe I've just gotten unlucky lately, cause I've ended up in the 10% more and more.

I've seen team stacking to the point where it's just not fun to play anymore.
I've seen people pulling "legitimate" dick moves like spawn camping and excessive turtling to the point where it's just not fun to play anymore.
But I can't remember ever seeing "mad hatter stupid party time" that lasted more than 1 or 2 maps and actually ruined the game experience.

I tried explaining to him better places to build and he ignored me, and he was doing it over and over over 3 or more maps. He was not playing like a newbie, he was playing in such a way as to cause maximum hindrance to his own team.
I just spent the last hour on a 24/7 2 fort server, launching stickies into the enemy battlements. Stupid snipers never ever learn. So busy being scoped in they never see the death landing at their feet.. I right click, they die.

Sorry the concept of a teammate in a team game doing terrible on purpose, hindering the rest of the team, is too hard for you to understand.
In happy news, Arena_Warehouse now has game logic, lighting, and spawns that don't let you jump into prohibited areas. So-- this time I mean it-- you could get a good play-test out of it.
Still gotta decorate the rooms with more props and establish a 3D skybox/background elements, but at least it works now.

You play for complainers and shithead teleporters? That puzzles me in so many ways.
I guess I don't play for map complainers but I don't mind them at all. And I think fake teleporters are funny if they are done creatively!
That's...that's quite a round.
Dearest Fencingsax,
I will kill you, and kill you, and kill you.
Eternally Yours,

Boxing heavies are funny.
Crouching boxies heavies are tragic. We had crouching boxing heavies. Three of them. Three, silent, crouching, boxing heavies. :?
I'm not sure I've ever seen a fake teleporter done creatively.
And I actually enjoy when people bitch about maps, because then I can bitch back at them about how much they are wrong. Even when I agree with them.
Do my edits help you understand what SirToons was trying to say?
I might release A2 tonight, not sure. Depends on how much I can get done.
That's awesome. Also, "Memore Hole" sounds really dirty.

You got more points from pushing the cart than killing mans. And then you posted the screenshot. That's pretty shameful right there, TDoT. :rotate:
