Server Stage Fright Thread Jewel_Pandora 08/30/12(Thu)12:25 No. 12882

[Reply]

Am I the only one who seems to suffer from Glossophobia (fear of public speaking) when it comes to voice chat servers? See, I don't have much experience with public speaking. the written word I don't have much trouble with, but actual speaking? that's a whole different ball game for me.

I've never been on a TF2Chan servers, I'm sure they're fun, It's just when you take my lack of time with the game mixed with Glossophobia and inexperience, you can see why I have some issues with Public Speaking.

So if you guys have any advice for overcoming my fears, I would love to hear it. because I would love to play with you guys someday.

Thank You Jewel_Pandora 08/30/12(Thu)23:35 No. 12896

Thank You Very Much, I feel better now.

And just so you all know, I go by Midnight Leo on Steam because truth be told, Jewel_Pandora is actually the username I use for my adult fan art and fiction. I go by a different name for my less racy work on Deviant Art and Tumblr.

I thought I'd tell you guys beforehand. Just in case.

Forky 08/31/12(Fri)14:53 No. 12908

If you are on a random server start by calling out game-related things (ie: ___ is spy or sentry ahead). When you get comfy with talking try asking how everyone is doing when you connect to a server. Congratulating everyone at the end of a game or thanking someone for something is a surefire way to make friends.

>>	Jewel_Pandora 08/31/12(Fri)17:00 No. 12913 Thanks, Forky. I'm starting to feel better now. I'll do my best to keep up with everyone on the mantrain. here's to the maintrain server, may it continue to serve it's many visitors in the future.

It can come with any update really, but I'm looking forward to some more mann vs machine maps. Maybe an alternate mode where you'd go offensive (BLU) against a bunch of RED robots. Always hoped we'd get to fight Old Nick too. Spirit of Australian Christmas and all that. (Sort of like the Horseless Headless Horsemann and the Monoculous fights- but perhaps with less greed and more giving.) People got so cutthroat when the presents popped up. Something to promote generosity would be nice.

I like the idea of infiltrating the robot's defenses. Maybe something not dissimilar to capture the point playstyle, where you have to disable all their defenses before capping.

I tell ya, I love this robot deal. Made me feel like I was really fighting towards some sort of actual goal now, instead of just burning nooblets to ashes.

Because everyones favorite black scottish cyclops needs more love. Post any and all head canons you have about Tav here !

(And yes, I am aware there already was a head canon thread awhile back, but it's ridiculously old and was about the game as a whole, so lets keep this about Demoman okay? Good. )

>I think that Demoman has lost his eye in more than just two ways. Iâ€™m thinking; five, eight, fifteen different ways, all fantastically epic, and all, somehow, within the same reality.

And now I'm picturing Demo's eye-loss as being akin to TDK Joker's facial scars...

Spreadsheets are bad m'kay? Anonymous 08/27/12(Mon)18:03 No. 12874

[Reply]

The TF2 Spreadsheet Admin got caught scamming recently.

>He's been buying items at a very low price, then jacking them up on the spreadsheet to resell.

He had between 50 and 100 buds when the price on those suddenly skyrocketed.

>Someone noticed and put it all over reddit,
and here's where it got good.

>The Spreadsheet Admin then tries to defend himself on reddit with a bunch of excuses about who actually sold the items he had and claiming he makes no profit, because he gave the Botkiller and all other items to his "friends."

He gets caught in his lies when all his alternative accounts (his "friends") that he used for scamming are linked with proof they are him.
>Then he got real mad and said "you all just don't understand, I have to do this."

This one should get BUFF/NERF in MvM mode. Anonymous 08/16/12(Thu)10:31 No. 12788

[Reply]

The MvM is now playable and there must be some shortcomes of it since the power and effect of weapones are different.
Some of nine mercs have become more superior to others and even some of those others have become more inferior than before.

Few of them may need to get BUFF/NERF in MvM to recover the balance.

SO, WHO DO YOU THINK MUST GET BUFF/NERF AMONG THOSE NINE??

Too lazy to switch out from my 2fort or Freak Fortress layouts I guess. I dunno, I enjoy building at chokepoints in hard to reach places, and then using the pistol to finish people/bots off.

I have never run into a Spybot that uses a revolver. I always get backstabbed. However, they tend to backstab me before sapping the Sentry, so...

Rapid Fire anything on Decoy is scary.

Is everyone in TF2 completely selfish? Anonymous 04/25/12(Wed)20:34 No. 12015

[Reply]

Been hearing an argument that there's never been such thing as teamwork in TF2, and that absolutely no one who's ever done anything for charity involving the game (ie. buying the Japan disaster relief hats) gives a flying shit about it, they only want hats and attention.

I think there's definitely some selfish people in any gaming community, but I don't think we'd ever see Buff Banners, Teleporters, Dispensers, Medics, Sandvich-throwing, people saying "thanks" over command or chat, or people becoming friends over the game if everyone was truely that selfish. Thoughts?

I need to rewrite this, because I hate how it initially came out, I apologize.

I am usually a very quiet person, so you will rarely find me on chat and almost never on mic unless I am very close to everyone on the server. Some of my friends know I am female and some don't.

In some servers women talk on mic and it is never commented upon. She is just another player like everyone else. If I hear anyone making sexist jokes about other players, though, or calling players "bitch" or saying "eat my cum, eat my cock", I mute them and then quietly report them. I don't understand why anyone cares what gender or race a person is, only how good and how cooperative they are in-game, or how nice of a person they are.

If people are being douchebags I leave for a couple hours, but I never leave the game entirely because not everyone is bad, there's enough good to outweigh the bad.

>>	Donny 08/14/12(Tue)07:59 No. 12749 So hey, I just got outta a game and felt the need to post a lil bit. Valve servers truly do harbour the angriest of people sometimes, whether its so much as a sentry in a good spot or a kill away from a domination, sometimes this damn community just gets mah goat.

>>	Tuld 08/15/12(Wed)01:38 No. 12768 >>12749 I feel the same right here. Valve DID say that TF2 was going to be an ongoing project. TF2 shows a whole new apporach when it comes to FPS games.
