Just a quick guide for newer players on common TF2 courtesy.

1.If you are an Engineer, rotate your buildings with Mouse2
2.If you are a medic, please dont play battle medic. The general idea is that you'd be more handy if you help heal people.
3.Get a microphone.
4.Don't overplay a class. For instance, if you want to switch to a certain class, and see two or more others playing them, please dont play as them. You could be more helpful to the team as another class.
5.Put out fires. You can do this by airblasting as pyro, healing teammates by keeping your dispenser up, healing your teammates as medics, using your jarate on teammates, or dropping your sandvich for your teammates to use.
6.Protect your medic. If you protect your medic, your medic will protect you.
7.Respect the Admins. Common knowledge, if you don't respect the admins, you'll likely get kicked.
8.Don't be rude to your teammates (I.E. Griefing)

Thanks! I tried to make this quick guide to help the newer players. Then again, most of TTP is experienced, so it's likely pointless for me to post this here, but if anyone learns something, then I've accomplished atleast that much.

Nice work Knee!

Since an Editor is gonna get on you anyway, you should right an article, check out the Teamplayer Media forum.

**Walkerxes** · 12-30-09, 05:52 AM

Why yes, Iron, that is exactly right

Fesh out these points and this would make a lovely article. Just a nice, quick, general guide to getting started in TF2.

It seems I know you too well, Walker.

Btw must you publish articles at 5 43 in the morning? I like these Twitter text updates, but not when they wake me up from a good sleep, I now blame you for my sleep deprivation

**Walkerxes** · 12-30-09, 06:22 AM

LOL Normally I publish them around 8 AM or so before work, but I had to take Xoria to the airport this morning for a 6 am flight, so I was up already and decided to publish a bit early instead of trying to go back to sleep for another hour or two

Yes, because you will quickly learn there is a setting in your Twitter account that will prevent SMS updates being sent until a certain time, therefore making it not wake you up.
