I only remember 1 or 2 TKs actually. The people who used them made sure to tell their teams.

I was playing with random guys on one server yesterday and we where playing and everything fine untill one guy starts to fart over me this stuff that i was so noob and so on and that was all the game untill at the end before he rage himself because me and the other 2 players did bot play like he wanted and he hated me to the max and did blame me for everything and " he did say somthing that a was a retard and so on and so on... I was wondering has anyone been there ? because this kind of shit did make me pretty angry i was always thinking about just if we were at cybercafe then i think i would rearrange his face a little i think

just asking because this did make me mad and that could not do anything and i could not tell him to calm down a bit and just take a deep breath because he rage right before he made that line.. Well i am off to the killingfields.

That's why I don't play pubs that often. Usually there's one person that just haaaas to jack their jaw about how good they are and how noob I am. But I've gotten to the point where I just don't let anything get to me in game. I'll laugh it off 99.9% of the time.

Do the same. Just laugh it off. Just watch how badly THEY play and get a little chuckle out of their mistakes. It's JUST a game. Don't let it get to you.

This.

I've played online games for I don't know how many years. I play WoW on and off - and I love love LOVE the healers or Rogue. I only ever do Pugs(Same as pubs - Pick up group) on runs because I'm to lazy to do quests. Anyway, Being a healer is hard because if you don't do it right.. OMGYOURFAULT. Everything is always YOUR. FAULT.
I thought switching to a Rogue would give me a break from that. I was completely wrong. if anything it is worse. With a healer you can tell them you aren't going to heal them until they behave, but with a Rogue you have no power. your up against all these people who have inherited gear, and are Hunters, warlocks, basically all the classes that get the most DPS. what do you get? Linked to the DPS stats constantly, and "lolol fail rogue"
Gee thanks guys, You ever think I don't spend hundreds of hours collecting inherited gear.. and oh wait, no pet?! what?! THERE ARE CLASSES WITHOUT PETS?!!?!?!?!

People are going to be moldy sponges wherever you go. just grin and bear it.. It will teach you what your in for in the real world!

.

I think Live is probably the worst community though. I don't know how many times I've gotten. "lolol his balls haven't dropped yet" "Well, thats impossible. I'm a girl." "...WHHATTTT." Suddenly everything you do is WRONG. why? because your a female playing a game. Just be glad you don't have to deal with the sexist side of the community. xD (Well, I'm just assuming your a guy seeing as your name is "Cobro". I apologize if I'm wrong!)
That guy who was bothering you is just a coward behind a mic.

wouldn't say it to your face even if he had the opportunity to.

Since my friends network is more a mutually created register of players that will not grief, than a list of players whom you play the game with more often, I find myself usually playing pub games.

Pub games, to a certain extend, contain all the elements that make the game re-playable after you've mastered all the campaigns. Chaos and uncertainty are of course a key element.

But chaos and uncertainty being intentionally directed to compliment the self-absorbed character of an griefer is sometimes the norm. And let's be honest, anyone who doesn't do team play in L4D is a griefer. And oddly enough, if you, in exasperation, stay in a game with a griefer and try to do your own thing, the griefer will usually try to make you look like the griefer. And so it goes.

To be fair, one has to remember that what I've termed here as a griefer is always relative. He/she has also paid their money for the game and wish to get out of it what they find worth-while. And if they find a team that share what I find as griefing, and enjoy the experience, then my behavior to them may seem to be griefing. And so it goes.

Like I've mentioned elsewhere, it sometimes takes wading through quite a few games before you find one without, what to you, is not a griefer. And that is where the fun happens. And that is why I still play the game.

Good ol' pubs for you. I haven't even played L4D in weeks but when I did, it was 99% with friends. It was amazing how nice it was to play with good people. There are trash talkers on every game, and it's just going to continue.
