Don't kick people from your squad if they don't have a mic...that is childish. It is not that you have to have a mic to play on this server...If they do not follow orders, then kick their ass out...or call for an admin.

But if we kicked people out who didn't have a mic, I wouldn't have made it very far...I got a mic because of TTP and not because I was kicked out of a squad...but because I was jealous of the communication.

And poor Rhys, what we do with him...

Now if you are the only one with a mic, that is a differnet story...Blah and I were in a squad last night and we were the only 2 talking, I kept hoping someone was going to get the idea and talk...never happened. Actually I was happy Blah joined because it was only me.

But we have to branch out. It doesn't help when every regular is sitting waiting for one person to create a squad (last night it frau), if we spread ourselves out, not only are we helping the team, but we are spreading the teamplay of the server and don't have one kickass talking squading with 5 crap shoots.

Spread out, make new friends...

I feel like that always gets said.

I guess what I think bothers me the most(sometimes even more than not having a mic) is when the people are either way too low or distorted. Sometimes I feel like I should plug my guitar in and show them what they sound like.


As was mentioned before I dobn't kick people from the squad if they don't have a mic...I'll do it when they don't follow orders or just plain ignore me, but if the type in squad chat "I don't have a mic" or something like that, then I'll let them stay. If they took the effort to type to me then I think they should follow orders.

When i start left 4 dead 2 it starts normally but when the first load is done it crasches to dektop, making a blue rame around the desktop!
