Quick question...
You play here? You like it here?
Kicking ass and taking names while working together your kinda fun?
Post it up.
How about a quick Hell Yeah for TTP!
If you are one of the many poor souls I see spam joining trying to get a spot when the server is full -
or worse, you were saving your team's ass and you get kicked for a reservist -
STOP WASTING YOUR TIME!
Take all the frustration and waiting, add it all up, and realize that it is more than worth the 5 bucks a month to get yourself a reserved slot. You have too much in life to deal with already without having to hassle for some of the best TF2 gameplay to be found. I know I do.

The Psychology of Horror In Video Games and Movies
Hugh Pickens writes "Jamie Madigan writes in GamePro that psychologists and experts on fear are trying to understand why so many gamers enjoy being terrified by horror-themed video games and movies. Researchers say some people are sensation-seekers attracted to any emotional high, be it from sky diving, shark-punching or horror films. Other personalities are drawn to situations showing the disruption of social norms in ways that will probably never happen in real life. But a more encompassing explanation of horror's inherent appeal is how it helps us master our fears. 'Watching a horror film gives us back some control,' says Dr. Andrew Weaver. 'We can experience an adverse event through film, and we know that it will end. We'll survive it. We'll go on with our lives.' Interestingly, horror only seems to work if the player or viewer knows that what they see is fake. In one famous experiment, researchers had subjects watch a movie featuring authentic scenes of live monkeys having their brains scooped out and of children — I kid you not — having their facial skin peeled away in preparation for surgery. 'The vast majority of the study's participants refused to finish watching the films despite that more grotesque movies playing at the theater down the street could outdo those scenes,' writes Madigan. 'We seem to need to know it's fake.'"
