    The Passing

    in Left 4 Dead 2

    Children - let's not deviate from the original topic which is about Passing, not about voting.  Granted Passing is kind of difficult because it's only 2 campaigns - likewise so has crash course - they both have long maps and are tedious because - a couple of hunters and a decent boom - wham you got a tank.  

    However, some maps are not on rotation for one main reason :   They empty out server.

     

    The negative side of voting for a map - people want to choose their favourite map all the time :  mercy, centre, carnival etc - this becomes even more tedious playing the same maps over and over again - so once in a blue moon when Passing comes up, would be nice to play to break the boredom.

     

    If you feel there should be a map vote - have the maps that are not regularly played including Passing on the vote :  'swamp, Crash Course,  Cold Stream".

     

    Each Campaign has their own death choke points - survivors need to negotiate and expect combo attacks - infected need to time them - unfortunately some new people are going to play their own game and this is the main point of annoyance - we got to try and help, but as Peanut said "If people are wondering off, shopping, exploring and they get caught in a place that could kill th team trying to rescue them, then leave them for dead".

     

    I put plenty of map votes up - I even turn on all talk and ask if members want a map vote - most of the time all I get is silence - don't blame the admins.

    IMHO - maps that aren't on the rotation is good (Swamp, Crash, Cold Stream) - main reason I say this is that as they're not often played - it breaks the boredom when we !votemap for them.    Swamp is a smoker map - the best infected - especially at the beginning - helping out those death chargers

     

    BTW   SWAMP    Has the best finale.

    L4D2 Ban Appeal

    in Banned from any of our servers?

    Welcome and thanks for coming to the GC forums.

     

    The moment you joined the game, you began a tirade of verbal abuse, totally inappropriate for this server.

     

    However as you have come here and apologised I will change the ban to 1 week - if a Board Member thinks otherwise, they can overrule.  

    Unban request

    Hi Cattlecruiser - I remember you joining and being automatically kicked as you used the name Llort Cattlecruiser.     Idk why it would kick you for that, but you came back  without the Llort and were not kicked.

     

    Good to see you back - keep us informed if you get any problems joining.

    Client Timed Out error

    in Left 4 Dead 2

    · Edited by MPG1770

    Here's my solution :  Turn Off router;  shutdown steam and all games;  use CCleaner to clear history etc;  re-start computer - after everything is loaded up, turn on router  but Wait for at least a minute before starting steam, games.

    Let members vote skip?

    in Left 4 Dead 2

    Admins will always put up a vote, but we have to follow a protocol to do so.

     

    Why bother playing campaigns of 2 or 3 maps then?

     

    Regardless of score, if we are going to skip finale all the time, the penultimate map becomes the finale, so should we skip that as well?

    Excellent work JC

     

    There is one other thing maybe - picking incapped up and hanging from a ledge :  it's so easy to pick someone up from the floor and get 3pts,  but extremely dangerous when picking up from a ledge and only get 1pt - maybe those points should be reversed?

    Why is Ireland in that picture?  The Irish side of my family would never have considered themselves British. 

    The Picture represents the UK - except for the Republic of Ireland, they don't belong in the group :  Scotland, Wales, England are 3 countries that for the island of Britain - there is no such thing as a British language.

    HI - don't worry - you weren't banned - what you probably didn't realise is that over here on this side of the pond - calling someone a queen is an offensive insult - please be careful - thanks.

    Hi Kyle - welcome to the forums and thanks for the post.

     

    Suiciding will not be tolerated.  I will go ahead and unban you, but please be warned we may not be so lenient next time.

    Peanut's story

    in Left 4 Dead 2

    Anyhow, back to the story ........................

     

    Wait, what - this story makes no sense at all - no continuity - oh, I see now - that's Peanut's playing style - I'm going to do a Peanut and rage from this.
