You could also read the thread and realize no one is complaining about being banned for using racist terms.

Not only can you continue to play, but if someone isn't aware of your restriction, invites you, and you all of a sudden decide you dislike that person, you have the ability to get THEM in trouble.

If this has been ranted about before, apologies.

Earlier today my team and I found that one of our scout players was banned from participating in any match for a week for guilt by association. The reason for this is because he put together a pug scrim that unbeknownst to him contained a player that was suspended by RGL for racism, who then went on to say another racist term in the pug scrim. Now my team is being indirectly punished for RGL's overreaching policies, forcing us to play with a sub going into the final week when we're on the playoffs bubble.

The fact that he got suspended for someone else's action when all he did was get a group of players together to play a pug is stupid on its own (he is supposedly responsible for someone else saying something according to staff), but the idea that you are then restricted from playing in RGL when it all occurred outside of any kind of affiliation with them is insane.

Rule in question:

[1002.4.1] - Using a banned player in a scrimmage
Banned players can play in RGL scrimmages. In the event that a banned player is playing in an RGL scrim or pickup game scrim of RGL players, and said player commits an act that would result in further bans, then the leader(s), active RGL player(s), and/or scrim organizer(s) responsible for that player's participation are subject to a possible league ban, in addition to a minor team penalty.

Where is the limit? What if you don't know the player that gets you banned? What if someone else you invited invites that person? Does every single pug service have to keep a running list of who is banned? RGL rules and enforcement of them continue to confuse.

Junpei, b4nny, and a bottle of Windex. On Lil B's Twitter. Incredible.

I'm still looking for tryouts, add me. :)

A lot of people forget that the hitsound needs to be loud enough to be audible over ambient noises of the map and other sounds. Try increasing the volume.

water so cold it hurts my throat, the more pain the better

I use strobelight to enable LightBoost, which is extremely easy, although there are other methods. I turn it on right before I play and simply go back to 144 hertz when I'm done and want to do things like enjoy videos brightly.

For anyone interested in the Happy Hacking Keyboard, (if I don't pick it up myself) it is an absolute joy to type and play games on that don't require the use of arrow keys. As a lifelong user of Cherry MX switches, high quality Topre is something I don't think I will ever go without again as of my switch last year.

John in my eyes is secretly a highlander player, because he can almost single-handedly take care of all of your offclass needs. When this man hops on spy, you know there is a enemy medic drop soon, even if everyone in the entire server knows it is coming.

That isn't to say it is the most important thing about him. His ability to outsmart other people on Scout makes him a strong flank fighter, and I think it would be scary to see this man with a heal beam on him a lot more often.

He should definitely be on your list, because it is easy to tell he wants to improve and I don't see that stopping any time soon.

bump for season 28!
