30 seconds of work later... I can add googly eyes to each cheek if that will somehow make it more festive. Edit: Aw fuck, kangaroo beat me to it!

I might even remember how to bhop and stuff!

Please don't leave me surrounded by the Americans and James.

It's been forever since I've played with you but it's sad to see you go!

Ooft. I almost feel bad that you took me seriously when I said it was a huge success.

Owch coll, you didn't need to call me out like that. It's been so long since I played with you regularly, but hey maybe one day we'll hear you talk!

Bye bye babes, thanks for sticking with us for so long. Hope you still drop in from time to time so I can hear my name randomly shouted at me. You stayed that way too! But I'll honestly miss seeing you about the place.

You know full well that you're never making it over that bridge or onto any helicopter.

Fairly sure you're the one who gave me tinnitus. I vaguely remember it being a longass thread more than one person. Like when Soulkeeper got a "new mouse".

You mean I'm not supposed to throw smoke grenades at the feet of my teammates to lock them in place? Dang. How else do I get people out of the vehicles I want because I clearly deserve them more? Or how am I meant to lock Frosty in place so I can blow him up on a bridge?

I love you all too, y'all my babes. x

Went to a pub in Galway, dude glassed another dude. 'tis a place of romance. Just to entertain ya, was the pub opposite the chippy near the Spanish Arch.

Basically run to the nearest P90/M249/Negev and hope for the best

This is pretty much the issue for me as well. The lag makes ZE fairly unplayable for me, zombies jolt and shots miss. Meaning that there's nothing for me to do on the server apart from listen to players which gets boring, and then just unpleasant fairly quickly. We have lost pretty much all of our ZE playing admins over the last few years and with most new ones coming from the other servers, this probably isn't a bad idea to get some of the more active ZE players to apply.

Was more the fact that he ruined every single Toy Story film than anything else...

I've only ever done stuff if they do it every single round. One off, it's just a colossal dick move. Round after round of constantly leading the CTs to every T is when I'll tell them to stop. Which is balanced against how fun the thing is in practice. It's why rules such as "You have to see the T kill the CT in order to know they've killed someone" have been struck down before (a fairly common rule on more RP PB servers years ago), somethings are fun to roleplay, this sort of thing really isn't.

You and I must be remembering it differently, I just remember the same old popularity contest, but like I said, with the added personal grudges. Can't we resolve this by keeping it public but disabling usernames/avatars for people below AO?

Not really, they were still hand-wavy praise most of the time. In terms of honesty, the only things that have vanished are the comments about whether they personally like the person and petty things like that. Otherwise, the comments about how good an admin they would make are pretty much the same.

I think Vy's admin app recently shows that what you're saying isn't really the case. Oh, and geez let's not return to the private system, that was even worse. Certainly wasn't private, everyone applying for admin (that wasn't a single post person or whatever) knew at least one admin who could printscreen the application for them. Hell, I'll admit mine was, mine and every pretty much every single admin that applied under the old system. All this does is make the whole thing more irritating for newbies, especially since they can't read the decent criticism. Just makes another 'special club'...

I've muted Harpo several times, I believe I deserve either a medal or at least a lifesize golden statue.

Yeah, we're not particularly lucky when it comes to non-source servers.

Judging by the game's optimisation, the server code must be a nightmare. On the other side, can see the point in wanting a server now, as the game becomes more and more popular, starting a server will be more difficult since this doesn't seem like the game for server hopping.
