Recently found a pub server with people I enjoy playing with. Hadn't enjoyed pubs for the past 3 years, but now I can hop on that server and have a fun time. My classes go to 9:30pm 4 days per week so I can't commit to main rosters for the foreseeable future. So had I not discovered this server a couple weeks ago I probably would've quit playing TF2 for the most part.
Some of them play MvM at times and asked if I wanted to join. So I bought some tickets and jumped into mumble with them. First time I did any sort of buying/trading in TF2 in probably 2 years and no regrets. It's quite nice still making new friends after 5k+ hours
