Today I Blacklisted Your Servers As Well....

Recommended Posts

Yea, I just don't get it...

I've played on your servers for months now. The last month or so they have ben teh suck. As you youngsters like to say.

I used to play on them all the time as rick astley. I was really saddened to see you locked the other guys post. He had some good points.

Anyway, there are issues. You ought to fix them.

If for no other reason to keep what quality players you do have.

He made 2 points, which are very illogical and tbh really stupid to even argue.

1. Class limits -- If someone wants to play a class then by all means DO IT, if there is 10 soldiers who cares? It's a game... Stop being so serious.

2. Skill Level -- New people have to start somewhere? Why not on Lotus servers, instead of raging because you're on a team of new players then find a different play style. I play nothing but the 2fort servers and i get new players on my team all the time, doesn't mean i can't still play and have fun without raging and blaming all of my deaths on my team.

The only way to "fix" these issues at hand is to implement a class restriction which i think is ridiculous, if someone wants to play a certain class then by all means they should be able to.

Then to "fix" the new players, all you can do is kick them from the server; on what grounds? How can you say getting rid of players because they're new to the game is fair at all? It goes both ways, getting rid of all the new players will do 1 of 2 things, either make the servers half empty all the time, or have them full of try hard, good players which in that case you will still rage because you're getting killed every few minutes by someone with greater skill.

This is a game, once you and the other guy realize this I'm sure you won't complain about silly things such as this.

I don't often post here but as a regular to the Lotus UK servers I'd like to post in SUPPORT of the decision *not* to block class use.

I specifically only play on non-class locked servers. I don't always have 10+ hours a day to game so why should I have to play a class I don't want to play, on a game I paid good money for and why should I help populate servers for admins that set them up that way. Not everyone likes or agrees with your views, Chris. There is a flip side to every coin and Lotus are providing for it.

His points are also poorly phrased and deliberately has a malicious undertone - I'm sure Lotus get it, he doesn't like the way they run their servers. Why bother coming and complaining with such 'serious' complaints? He contradicted the point in his post by saying that Lotus don't care. Why did he post if he feels he knows nothing will change (I honestly hope, for the points he made, nothing does!).

Ps, I can assure you I know what I'm doing in game, I've played Tf2 a-plenty and racked up 2139 hours of my life JUST playing TF2 so far.

Oh and also, us "low-skills n00bs" who've been racked up some hours (not just bought the game back in the 80's played for 5 minutes and said they've been playing since then) actually like to have fun every now and then. I've seen ALL one class moments on the Lotus servers and they've been the most spotaneous fun times I've had on Tf2. The all spy assault was fantastic. I'll never forget the game where the entirey of blue changed class to the same class every round to confuse red. Guess what? We won with most classes, go figure!

Heavy boxing around Christmas time one year was fun, too.

I bet you are sad to see it locked since this and the other account are probably the same person...

A useless post that does not include any helpful suggestions. Thanks for blacklisting us.

I said it in the other thread. If you insist on playing ons ervers that are aimed at new players then you will find new players.

We have other servers that rarely see free to play "noobs".

Most new players use the quickplay (Start Playing) feature as they are either unaware of the server browser or too lazy to use it.

Quickplay sends players to 24 slot servers almost exclusively. So if you want players who played the game longer you need to use the server browser and look for non-standard settings.

Such as:

32 players

no crits

instant respawn

arena

tc_hydro

etc

As those are all excluded from quickplay.

As such there is nothing to fix as we have already have a number of servers that are not on quickplay.
