Started the new iteration on newbie mixes more then 2 yaears ago now. I am the only one still playing from that original group. Its sad but fine. The part that pisses me off is there are no fucking coaches ever. People bitch that game is dying but dont actually step up to help and make it grow. We have at least 8 brand new teams this season for open but not enough coaches to help them, like what the fuck. Also people in the community that seem to think that people get paid for the shit they do so it somehow gives them the rights to be a fucking baby about stuff thats not exactly right and bitch constantly. Do it your fucking self if you think you can.

TBH almost wish i didnt waste 5000 hours of my life on this game, gotten me nowhere and the community has largely went to shit the past 6-8 months and the game itself is the biggest joke it has ever been in the past 10 years. Also kinda pissed that i never really got the chance to play with consistant or good teams, this is more my fault because of IRL shit then anything else but now I am more or less just stuck playing for half decent open teams or low IM teams because i have nothing to show for myself.

JewJubesThe fact that my neighbours 5 houses down from me will be getting Bell Fibe but not me is a major annoyance.

if your family owns the house there's not much you can do but if your landlord is part of a housing company he'll probably have made agreements with providers (meaning it's not always a matter of coverage area)

coaching teams is pretty ass cancer imo. i helped out one of the newbie mixes, i support that whole idea but me personally, i couldnt really stand it. it takes a special kind of person to be able to step up and coach, i dont think its easy to come by people who can A) stand it and B) do it effectively. also, i dont really think coaches are that important. yeah they get things going but we never had coaches years ago, sure you might ask a higher level player to give you pointers, review a demo with your team, maybe mentor a little, but the idea of coaches kind of paints the picture of babying people into the game, and who is to say that what the coaches are telling you is right? if youre gonna have people coach, youd need them to be reputable, and i think that reputable players in this community are scarce atm, and they probably have better things to do. not trying to knock newbie mixes, as i said i think the idea is really good. but coaching, idk... i think having newbie scrims frequently would be better for people learning the ropes. who cares if there is a coach to sit there in spec and facepalm, or ghost for the team, or give bad advice? players are gonna figure it out on their own eventually, they might even come up with something new.

Newbie mixes is more about helping new players conquer imaginary barriers to competitive rather than real ones. You don't need an IM player to explain the basics of 6s to someone who has never played but it makes it seem a lot easier to get into.

That being said I don't have the patience to say the same thing every week and do the same map reviews for players brand new to the game.

I'm really pissed off at the job I work at, the owner is 69 years old and he doesn't give a flying fuck about how the private car or the public shuttle side of the business is doing because he's already made his money on the schooling and bus side of the company. It's making him a shit ton of money.

The day distpatcher has some sort of fucking parkinson's disease or some shit (has chicken scratch can barley even understand what he writes sometimes) and hes literally losing his fucking mind I think. But hes at least more understandable than the owner who assigns the drivers jobs that seems impossible to be fucking done in between the time they're given(literally 10 minutes apart sometimes). I'm the guy who has the take the shit when things don't go well because the day guys either don't give a fuck or half-ass everything. I'm getting more and more infuriated working here at times since I got to take the shit from the drivers, customers, or companies when things don't go right at night. I'm taking this job just to be an addition to my resume (how many 19 year olds do you know are dispatchers for a fucking limo company?) as well as just working here just to save a shit ton to give me to boost, to either move out and find a new job out in Oregon or Washington. I almost have 20k saved already should only be a few more months and I'll have that reached!!! It'll be even quicker if I start asking for a raise :-0.

But man.... this fucking job stinks sometimes its sad how much of a low life people you can have here and have the owner not give a single shit to the company anymore since he should be retired already. It's baffling the people you meet here the actual bus drivers and shuttle drivers lol these people just went out of high school and have done nothing good for themselves.

TLDR; I'm 19 and a night dispatcher for a (now) scummy limo company. Job sucks because the owner clearly could careless for the company anymore since he's pilling in money from the bus side of the business. The day dispatchers are practically retarded and I take a lot of the shit by drivers and customers because of their mistakes. I'm only working here to save up money to eventually move out and continue on my career, and it's disgusting seeing low lifes in this world.

I'm mad at myself for never getting anywhere as far as competitive TF2 is considered. I've lost out on at least making IM on two different occasions and it still bothers me. The first time was my fault entirely as none of us had no idea all we had to do was win once or twice (whatever it was) in the playoffs to make IM at the time, so I decided to take some time off and pull myself together only to find out after giving up the roster on ESEA that we made IM. By then, a late season demo pick up had gained the ownership of the ESEA roster (not physically but that was to happen the next day or whatever), but I had asked my scout partner to have the ownership back and he gave it to me. It became a problem between the person who would have had ownership and myself, and for some reason they made a thread about it on NATF2 and it got to the point where everyone said "just give it to him to get this over with". Bad move... but I did. They ended up doing terribly during their first IM season. I can't imagine it'd have been any different if the lineup before had done any better, but it bothers me not knowing if that would have been the case or not.

The second time was when some CS guy by the name of caseythecat somehow managed to convince ESEA that Swatt was him ban evading on a different game (???), leading Swatt to receive either a season long ban or a year long ban, I can't remember. So my new team at this time isn't perfect but we were doing pretty great for our first season and were going to make playoffs. Somehow our scout, Nemrawd, was believed, by ESEA, to also be this caseythecat person ban evading to play TF2 (even tho this cheater was a CS player, but whatever). We had all of our wins with him overturned and missed out on participating in the playoffs. Of course this doesn't mean we'd have made IM, but I felt very strong about this line up and even if it meant just winning enough games to move up, I knew we'd get there. But we didn't... because this caseythecat faggot and ESEA didn't let that happen. Thank you.

And I don't remember which season this was, but fuck you, ESEA, for allowing Hoegie to wallhack during our playoff match on Warmfront without overturning the outcome. Fucking thanks.

Today was shit, I ran into a shitlord today...Normally I laugh at the poor soul behind the computer but today was different I was already tired from moving into my new room and setting up. So what happened was that I was mgeing and just playing to improve what little skill I have in this game and I go against this guy (lets call him SP) whom I beat as solider then I went on to other classes like Demo, scout and he beats me so I was alright he's pretty good. I was just about to type how great he is and even fucking compliment his God-Tier unusual when he says "ez". I went ape shit.
I just got batshit angry for no reason, went soldier and rolled him for the next 2-3 rounds... He then followed and said "ez nigger" SP then got on mic and asked if I was mad. Damn straight I was. But then it turned out he had the voice of some low life who fucks his cousin. I proceeded to sit back in my chair and sigh deeply and just leave the server. Fml

TL;DR I was mgeing and destryoing some guy when I played solly got called some nice words and left feeling ashamed
PS I only have 3000hrs if that matters

You hit the nail on the head, its more about ease of access then actual hard learning. TBH we dont need you to be there every week, even one time a month for 2 or 3 hours would be welcome. The issue we have is that very few people ever actually show up to coach so we have a group of 4 or 5 people that are there every single week. If all the 8-8 open players and above came to coach the mixes just once a month for a couple of hours we would not have this problem. That is what frustrates me, not the fact that we dont get people all the time, but the fact that we dont get people ever. So please even if its only 1 time a month come and help grow this shitty game we all love.

i was streaming today and vented a bit so i think i might summarize what i said there.

long story short: minimal amount of tryouts so far and im honestly losing my drive to play tf2. one of the only teams that i wished i couldve tried out for gave me 2 reasons to why they would never try me. those being that i tilt, and that they don't think that im high open (this is honestly more dumb because when i asked one player for a tryout he said they would try to slide me in, didnt message me for a couple of days, then when i asked about the tryout he broke the news. aka my time was wasted trying to wait around for a tryout i was never going to get). the team that i did tryout for was not a team i was going to enjoy if i played on it, and another team was the team i was on last season and (no offense to you guys if yall see this) i was not going to try to get back on it, and i bet they wouldnt have let me back on anyways.

like i dont understand. so many players are lft and so many players are getting tryouts, except me it seems. just bumping my lft every 2 days, searching for teams that i feel like i could actually fit on, and just not having anything to work with. maybe too many players are lft and nobody is making teams. i dont fuckin know, but its honestly upsetting that i might not get any tryouts and prolly wont play this season or will probably end up playing on some random team with a very low skill ceiling that i wont enjoy. i would try to make a team but i honestly wouldnt know where to start, and the last time i have ever tried to lead a team, i killed it, so im not confident in trying to make a team.

my story ended up still being slightly longer than expected.

Viperi bought some items off of marketplace.tf and they were all delivered, but there's one item in the order that's labeled as still being sent, even though i already got it

now the bot that delivered the item is adding me to friends list non-stop, messaging me non-stop, and trying to send me trade offers non-stop

i blocked the bot on steam, but it can still message me through steam mobile and has been blowing up my phone for 36 hours straight

i tried to trade it in hopes to fix it and it just readies up the trade, unreadies it, then goes offline, and back online, starting the whole cycle over again

geel if you're reading this PLEASE RESPOND TO MY TICKET AND END THIS SUFFERING DEAR GOD

which bot is it fam

I never said anything about you playing with lee, I don't know any of what happened. What I do know is neo picked you up regardless of what bwelp wanted which made him leave which killed the team. I had to explain that neo, just like you because he didn't understand lmfao (understanding others is really not a strong point between you two). Also that wasn't the point, you're the type to kill everything you touch so I was just making a suggestion that anybody who is trying to play a full season and get better should attempt to avoid people like you like the plague.

bot #41

i think i fixed it, i forced the bot to try and add me through the send trade again option on the orders page while having it blocked on steam

but yeah all that needs to be done is my sent trade items marked as delivered

Tino_saamNewbie mixes is more about helping new players conquer imaginary barriers to competitive rather than real ones. You don't need an IM player to explain the basics of 6s to someone who has never played but it makes it seem a lot easier to get into.

That being said I don't have the patience to say the same thing every week and do the same map reviews for players brand new to the game.

You hit the nail on the head, its more about ease of access then actual hard learning. TBH we dont need you to be there every week, even one time a month for 2 or 3 hours would be welcome. The issue we have is that very few people ever actually show up to coach so we have a group of 4 or 5 people that are there every single week. If all the 8-8 open players and above came to coach the mixes just once a month for a couple of hours we would not have this problem. That is what frustrates me, not the fact that we dont get people all the time, but the fact that we dont get people ever. So please even if its only 1 time a month come and help grow this shitty game we all love.

went last week and ended up waiting ~3 hours to just sit in mumble doing my own thing (dont get how u pick captains bc i was one of the first like 4 or something to show up)

I'm having similar frustrations with my tf2 career as well -- after spending some time back in the game this summer it rekindled my interest in competitive. However, I notice there are a lot of people looking and not many teams, and I don't know if I can carry the burden of leading and all the things coming with it. Just having two sides of that coin always puts me on the fence whether it concerning my return to playing the game. I'm just not sure I have the charisma to keep people sitting on their butts practicing for 2 months.
