Yeah, It was just a big mix up on everyone's part, mine included. Like I said, and you guys saw that I acknowledged it.. Mocking was uncalled for, but I've been in so many L4D2 versus games the people are so hostile I'm always on the defensive. Pleaser tell your husband I apologize. Since I mentioned the community of trash-talkers I've seen on L4D2 I wanted to bring this up. I showed my friend this thread (she played with me when the incident happened.) We we're both floored at how well mannered and civil you guys are here on these forums. I did create an account for the purpose of airing my story, but never in a million years did I expect you guys to be civil, calm, and explainitive as you are. I'm not putting you down or anything, it's just.. my jaw in on the floor. Any other forum would have attacked me and that's what I was prepared for. Props to all of you for being the friendly people you are. You got a new member. With that said, I have the L4D2 community but you guys have given me hope in it. I would love to be in any L4D2 versus games you are playing. My Steam name is TonyStarkLives (it may be TonyStarkLives0, can't remember) so send me a friend request and I'll add you. What makes the L4D2 community so hostile? I played it on console before playing it on my laptop because my computer at the time didn't stand a snowball's chance in hell of running it. Players on the console copy were never as bad as the pc community was.

Wow, I'm not used to a forum being so civil, I probably just may stick around. I apologized if it seemed like I was trolling, I did leave once and shot a few zombies and went back. I got annoyed when I said "I'm almost dead" in the chat and heard all the voices yelling at me. Like you said I could have grabbed a health kit and went back out but I didn't think of that. I only posted this because I figured it was a short term ban but couldnt play later so I thought it was a perma-ban. Like you guys said, a misunderstanding on everyone's part. Thank you for being civil and look forward to hoping on there and playing again. EDIT: Also I reacted the way I did foolishly after being yelled at because of my experience, the online PC community of L4D isn't the kindest. so I took that as being the same ol' thing.

I play on the 10v10 Versus survivor all the time, I even told my friends about how much fun it is. Last night I was playing with a friend of mine. Her and I were playing the first stage of No Mercy with a couple of other people. Once everyone is outside her and I are incapped twice with her making the witch angry once. Once we are standing (and are in black and white) we see that the safe room is just ahead (literally 20 steps) so we went downstairs and in to the safe room to protect ourselves from dying. It's at this time that our entire team starts witching. They start screaming at us to come out of the safe room and help them, when they really don't need our help. It's only us two in the safe room, another eight of them all together around the same area where we were. There in no desperate need of our help, their health is fine and they are just hunting special infected. I started mocking them, which I shouldnt have I agree on that now. But they were being ridiculous. After saying 'I can't be much help i'm black and white and at 1 health" Finally some woman says "we don't appreciate rushers on this server kthx" and banned me and only me from the server. My friend said she just left without being banned. Which, I'm not angry about. What I'm angry about is this. 1. If I run with the entire group, revive incapped people, get attacked enough to go to the safe room which is only 20 steps in front of me... I AM NOT RUSHING. They were with us the whole time, but were just doddling around in no particular hurry to get to the safe room. 2. Isn't.... isn't the goal of L4D to get from the first check point to the 2nd safe room quick enough so special infected and hordes don't take all your health? I've played L4D1 and 2 since release and have always been a team player, but isn't it a bit excessive to call me a rusher if i can literally see the safe room in front of me and take sanctuary? I think the ban should be lifted because it was heavy handed and uncalled for.
