The new system needs a few more weeks to be evaluated properly.    ATM, it seems to be fine, no need for any changes as yet on hordes - and a definite NO to J,Gibbs hordes.

Cool down timer would be good - I would say 30 secs - it's a bit OP when there's constant wave of non-stop Riot hordes.

With the infected upgrade - (smoker definitely need one, but not the jockey) - will survivors get anything to counterbalance - such as SI could drop pipe-bombs instead of presents?

An increase of points for Hazmats and others if we're going to have them permanently, especially with the Jimmy Gibbs as they can only be killed with a melee (I believe).

Or how about a timer alert : "you must wait 30 secs before you can buy this" ?

If Hordes are going to be added and I surely hope not (it's fine as it is - not that difficult to ascertain when you can buy), survivors should be given something to counteract such as SI should drop more presents or even pipe bombs instead, idk - but no to Jimmy Gibbs and other special hordes.

Better still as JC says, remove them from the !buy menu altogether

 living in the back of beyond countryside where telephone/internet is incredibly crappy - I'm getting Fibre Optics upgrade and a new router in 10 days - no more 1MB dl / 0.34MB  upld - can't wait.

Hurling accusations without just cause is not going to fix this problem, what you described has happened to most of us here.

"connection failed after 10 tries"  usually happens when servers are down (got to wait for server to fix itself or have a BM re-boot - but if a steam update needs to be patched in, that can take sometime).  Have had this problem many times. 

within like 5 minutes my screen froze, but i could still hear everyone talking and doing everything

This happens usually after the '10 tries' fail message and you rejoin - sometimes that window still runs in background, hence this problem.

The fix is to shutdown Steam entirely, clear history, cache etc, wait a few minutes before starting Steam first, then run the game.

Wanna see your birth certificate Peanut lol - Hope you a great one Merc - probably better than the 10 quid (pounds to you - about $12) and pair of bloody stupid socks I got

I have reduced your ban to 1 week - you have 2 other bans on record -3rd ban is always perma - regardless of what you typed, I have screen shots of you swearing - you know this is not allowed - it will  be up to a a Board Member if they want to over-rule this decision - until then, you will have to be pleased that you are not perma-banned - just be careful in future.

Members also be warned :   being rude only encourages new people to be rude - please stop or there will be consequences - your choice.

increase tanks to 60pts with a 35pt heal.  Too easy  to buy.

Save yourself a headache Jackie, increase tanks to 60pts with a 35pt heal.

OUCH    indeed  

Unsure atm - will need testing for a couple of days for people to give proper feedback.

2nd Nominee  - ok I don't get a prize - the prize is being a nominee - this is the 2nd for me - that is worthy of some talent I guess?

It appears that some people are being  disingenuous (brother and a very close friend) - they are both violent towards me for getting this award.

I don't know what their problem is - they have both spoilt this for me.

I was creating beauty or so I thought.

Here's a couple of ideas if you want to make things more interesting:  Use a gun that you wouldn't necessarily buy; let's scrap the !sp / !np  altogether; play a different SI that you never use; build your own server and do what you want. 

Let's not take things out of proportion here - Please, either behave or be gone, don't spoil the game for 19 other people, you are not the team.

Take a well earned rest - see you soon

Please don't encourage new people to break server rules - you know who you are - and would you inform them of the correct commands and decease with the trolling 

The point of this new systen - it don't give infected so many points when there are so few people on - hence buying tanks every minute.  However, unless you're a total expert in coding, you will realise that in trying to fix a problem creates a problem - please be patient - JC and / or Crasx  is not available 24/7 - expect the bugs to take some time to be fixed.

Admins and BMs have been discussing this issue for quite sometime before your ban was made.  There have been several complaints from members about you spawning so many that on a couple of occasions you blew the entire team up and incapped and ended with 0 points rewarded for surviving - you can guess not many people were happy that you made them lose for doing this, so they complain to Admins and BMs and we have to set a precedent for new "problems" as they arise.

Please be patient and wait for ruling from BM - thanks

Still in cardio rehab - got another 8 weeks left - it's a killer - do enough bloody exercise taking the dog for a walk lol.

I wouild suggest buying several toy instruments (as he's only 3) piano, guitar, recorder, trumpet, some drums etc - let him get the feel of the instruments and find about how sounds are produced by himself - he will gravitate towards one main instrument - that will help his cognitive development.  Also, give him a stick and when you play music, help him conduct - (place teddies on a chair with instruments) simple excerises will dramatically help expanding co-ordination.  Need any further tips creating fun and games with music - just ask.

Take Care

I thought after the heart attack - going through all the cardio-rehab etc, life is not the same - I can't play the piano for more than 20mins or so without feeling totally breathless - I've even tried very recently doing a concert or 2, but now I have to come to the realisation - I can't do that anymore.

Last year before this recent health situation arose, I gave my brother my savings to get his house repaired - that didn't happen - used the money to pay off his and his wife's credot card bills and other debts - needless to say the house is still in need of repair - that's farmily for you.

I really can't go back into teaching - paperwork is way too much and I find using public transport is way too stressful - there is no consideration of driving myself - I hate it and it scares me - not prepared to travel between 25 - 450 miles a day to go to a gig - unless it's a major orchestral event - and I think that career has now ended.

Sit at home, give private music lessons - oh my no - besides who in the hell wants to send their child to some out of he way place - it's not going to happe.n.  Internet music based - that's not going to happen either - I got over 100,000 followers on a music site - sold 8 pieces - yay - I get royalties from them every year totalling almost $8

Need to work for the value of llife - this is what I'm going to do - I'm a composer - I want to create beauty for humanity

Thank you GC - thanks specifically to JC, Chick, FK, Mercman, Peanut, Crasx - even in cyberspace you have shown me there is hope for us all - thank you.

I would like to see a rocket jockey achievement - rocket in and land on someone's head - "Level Headed" 10 pts -  it's very rare and exrtremely more difficult to do than a hunter achievement?

Members get Admin achievements - how about Admins get Member Achivements - say 3 pts - if you get death smoked by Mercman "YOU   GOT   MERC'D" ?

So easy to buy tanks - couple of high pounces and a decent boom - there you go - we don't need tank upgrades IMO - but if infected need an additional buy - how about buying a block message :   e.g.  !block infected achievements from survivors :    survivors won't see who's got parachute, going to be sick etc?  and hence buying unnaounce tank will become rather more effective?

Hey Deadlock - I really can't do anything about this - it'll be up to the BMs to assess - however, so others can't turn this into a drama - going to lock this until it's resolved.
