Thread: Just a friendly tip on handling the non-call-following newbies

That's great, except another way to put it would be if player B bails from the front on a banana rush by hiding at tree, waits til everyone passes, then continues with the rush and claims being blind. In some situations I could buy that (for instance at short A D2), but at the bottom of banana? I don't care who it is (going back to the radar-dot-anonymity thought process), its wrong. Very wrong. So player B is told what's up. If it turns out player B is a regular player, it doesn't make a difference.

I just wanna add one thing. I've noticed a lack of patience with new players that basically comes off rude many times lately. We want the community to grow and we want the noobs to love TPG like we do and come back, so we need to remember that we were once pub hopping non-call following pecks as well...

Just my .02. I don't like hearing new players saying "fuck this server, I'm out" because their whole team is jumping their shit for not following calls on the first or second round.

I'm slightly offended that you would think I would intentional duck out on helping the team. =\

The first guy will get blinded when they counter flash banana from inside the bombsite...
