The best part is the couple dozen players with rude names, who only played for five minutes or so apiece, who are now at the bottom of our stats board.
That's one reason I don't show up on the IC server very often.
I'm not gay and don't want to hear all the I want to suck this and I want to put that there crap.
Take that garbage to the IRC chat where it belongs.
It's also not a good example to the younger players.
The other is I got shifted to the red team and was trying to play engie when a guys screaming
"{IC}HAWK, PAY F***KING ATTENTION THERE"S A SPY AROUND YOU!" right as I got knifed in the back.
Then he goes on to complain how bad I'm playing TF2.
All in all, Guess I shouldn't be expressing opinions on it.
I'll agree that anyone's sexual preference is their choice and I have no ill will toward those that chose the gay lifestyle.
I have friends that are gay and get along fine with them.
That said, They are adults with common sense.
I didn't post that to offend anyone.
It just irks me to hear all the nonsense on a game server.
Most of the players on the server were being more ridiculous than normal last night...
I understand Hawk's point... It has nothing to do with homosexuality... If I had been in the mood for a serious game of TF2 last night, I would have been disappointed... anyone would have been.
I think the point was more along the lines of the idea that it's a game server... where else is there a place for nonsense?
I mean... it is a GAME server... is that not joke and fun time? If it was malicious or anything, I apologize, because I wasn't there, but if it was just the normal rowdy joking, then I'm not sure why there's no place for it on a game server.
It was just normal rowdy gametime. 95% of the time, we're not like that, but it was just a casual, fun night. No harm done, and I think we all know that that's not the norm for the IC server.
A little harmless fun with innuendo never hurt anyone. I am, however, constantly vigilant and extremely intolerant of people spouting anything hateful, racist, or mean-spirited.
Put it this way, even last night, I would have let my kids play on that server. That's my litmus test.

It is a very rare day when even prime and keebs take off their cloaks of competitiveness and don their capes of tomfoolery. Its nice to see once in a while. Last night was definitely not the norm.
I would love it if all the IC people were on TS, then I could use in-game chat to strategize, and TS to goof off... For a long time, that's what we did, but every time I try TS lately, I'm the only one on. I gave up on it about a month ago after three months of being ,literally, the only one logged in.
I like Teamspeak for small games, when there isn't much strategising to do anyway. If there are only a few people on the server, I'll turn it on, then turn it back off when the population picks up.

People laughing are people having fun. While playing a game, I can think of few emotions more appropriate.
Plus, we played serious PL maps before we got to 2fort and just started effing around.
That said I vote for more 2fort... and All Talk
-Bobby
eh... why not? It was the most fun I've had on 2fort since that time we had 5 sentries set up in our flag room.
use teamspeak to those who love talking to everyone all the time.
Teamspeak causes (at least for me) problems with in game voice becoming continuous garble shit.

Sorry for the abrupt exit, gf and her friend arrived back home and I promptly left without saying "later".
Then join... select it to add it as a favorite.
tttooommm, what's your SteamID? I'll add you to the group and then you can always follow one of us in.
The server address is:

Add that to your favorites, like Q said.
