because i’m sure there’s never a case of someone minding their own business who get harassed. surely they all did something, that means they deserve it

rgl can ban people and that’s really all they can do, and that’s lovely. but if a harasser is already banned, they are kept in the scene by their friends who refuse to condemn their shitty behavior. i can think of several people who are permabanned by rgl but are still in the tf2 community and still harass people because their friends enable their behavior. rgl isn’t gonna ban by association, thats a PR disaster. that’s why this stuff is all systemic, and it isn’t just an easy fix of “just report them!”

and a quick edit because i forgot to include this point: “just block them” sure but that doesn’t stop them from making alts to circumvent blocks and going out of their way to spread things about others. blocking them doesn’t mean “oh okay, i guess ill leave them alone now.”

my favorite coaches corner moments were the #10 live interview, the wish_z interview, interviews with teammates like jjslim or figsy, and the habib/skeez interviews

the live interview obviously because while it was very funny and not the most serious aspect, there was a lot of planning involved and it looked like it took a lot of work
the wishz interview cuz he said my team was good shoutout to the boy
i love my teammates because they are my friends so of course i like their interviews
and the habib/skeez interviews were really funny because both of them were very natural in their conversation, they didnt sound like they were trying to force anything, it was just them hanging out which made for a good read

someone needs to get some map maker who actually knows what they’re doing and give them millstone and just see what they do to fix that terrible last

gg to cuties, big shoutout to coach sand and assistant coach, coach_z

the back bone? johhnyfromcali
funniest names on steam? johhnyfromcali
most confusing? johhnyfromcali

back to back to back, no one else has this consistency

flare this does not prove your point at all and it just makes you look both obnoxious and like a huge nerd

vote for who u want to be interviewed, polls are open

thank u very much. winners will be announced on the bowl of mayo spreadsheet stream tommorow

for next season can we get our schedules a little earlier? 3 days before the first match feels like theres a high chance of scheduling a scrim with someone and then you cant scrim because it turns out you have a match, and then its scrambling for a scrim on a friday night

dont care + didnt read + ratio + L + you fell off + mid af + tf2 sucks + play overwatch + double ratio

if you wanna use the argument of “oh rue and ether never played so they were just taking up valuable spots, dont roster them if they wont play,” how would mcm know that rue or ether wouldnt actually be needed? all they can do is roster in the off chance they need one of them to play, but they had to get rid of both to make room for subs who can play multiple classes anyway.

“you had to ring a pyro, why didnt you just roster this pyro player who was lft as opposed to having 2 people who didnt even play” how am i supposed to predict several weeks in advance who will or won’t be missing, and who can actually play…boosting the roster limit would mean less of the guessing games…

@Markers said in 18 slots for HL:

The reason is that it’s hard to prove when someone does this, unless they outright admit it. And then admins will get evidence for someone doing it, ban the leader of an invite team when they inevitably find out right before playoffs (when the leader will then vehemently deny it day-in and day-out, farting everywhere with all of their friends posting #freewhoever hashtags on the forums), and everyone will be pissy for the next 2 seasons until they find something else to complain about.

thats true, i hadnt really thought about it too hard but i wasnt super serious in my asking. im not advocating to ban Someone because the rule wasnt in place when Someone received money for roster spots, but i still dont really see how lowering it to 15 is one of the best solutions to this. they added a rule that u cant do that anymore, so cool and awesome. but why just add this on top of it, seems like overkill, esp when they originally had a 15 limit and it got changed back cuz everyone complained, and then WiLLMaTiC (i assume) reversed it back to 15. realistically, what is stopping anyone from selling 6 spots, and having a 9 main roster + 6 virgins who have mommy and daddy pay for virtual hats and items that cost like 25 bucks a pop? the rule is, not the cut from 18 to 15 slots.

tldr
make it 18 again doofuses

there should be 18 roster slots

also as a side note, yeah it got changed cuz Someone sold spots to people and rgl got mad but…this is like when ur classmate got in trouble in the first grade and the teacher punished everyone. except in this example, the people didnt actually get in trouble, just the whole class got a blanket punishment and there was no actual punishment for the original “”“perpetrator”""

if the reason is because of Someone selling spots, then why not just punish the dude selling spots and make it clear that behavior isnt allowed. why must i/my team be punished for some dude tryna cop 20 dollars worth of tf2 items from main players who want to brag about their undeserved invite badge

final thoughts- if u r a main player who paid for a spot on Someones team then tried to use it to look cool u r a soggy biscuit and thats on Jahseh

counterpoint: i dislike borneo

yes i am salty that i never won anything

allstars were cool but they stopped s6 which is kinda sad!

i would have liked to have an award show similar to what they had in season 1 and 2

s7 they asked leaders for nominations and then…didnt do anything with them. and then s8 had nothing. and i assume s9 will have nothing (or at least, there arent plans for them)

bring them back! discuss. Yes!
