Make sure to bring lots of med packs, our 64 player beach server is intense!

It all comes down to little boys and there ego, they want to show how smart they are to everyone and how dominant. Same people antagonize on here always, and never, I mean never offer anything constructive or helpful. I assume most of the are bullied in real life hence why they do it here.

Funny thing is Skibba and Picmip you 2 fit the bill exactly to the type of person I was referring. And without fail you both posted. In fact if you check the posts I have helped lots of people over the years .

But as I expected you 2 focus on the negative and just come to antagonize and snipe, enough said , thanks for proving my point

In my opinion the most effective graphical tweak you can make by a long shot is turning off your gun. That is the only option I would say makes a BIG (in capitols) difference. I might be wrong but I think you (warpig) have said you like to play without your gun drawn also? I might be wrong again but I also don't think that option is available in the menu either. If it is tell me where though because I looked but can't find it.

Taken from your post Skibby:

3. Tweaking. First off the whole notion of tweaking is laughable to me. The fact that one adjusts legal settings to fit their personal preferences so it's more comfortable for them to play the game is and should be perfectly fine. To me legal means cal settings. To you all it may mean server settings. Either way they are all legal. FOR YOU HATERS - some of you may think you are better people for NOT using a config - keep telling yourself that cause no one else really cares to hear it. Don't tell us how much we suck after we dominate you.

So plz Skib take it easy on my neice when I let her try the game. She was crying the other night after you "rolled" her.

How does taking off your gun help you with anything? If your looking at your gun your looking at the wrong place anyways. Except for the right corner camp, but even then it has never blocked my view. you guys are on crack.

Toggleing the gun is available in OSP not shrub... |WRONG| Never looked there haha. /end crack intake

EA is going to get involved sooner or later and sell their spin-offs if people do not tighten up.

lol warpig you just keep showing how much of a fucking retard you are. way for the half of my config is DEFAULT. Its just present so that i can easily change things, hell i didn't even write the original config (its based off of guerilla's) - I havent even modified much of any of it save mainly for the visual settings (like mapoverbrightbits, crosshair settings, etc.) not to mention a lot of it is osp/server oriented, and has nothing to do with shrub settings (like on ecgn).

And since you seem to act like you know what you are talking about - PLEASE POINT OUT what on my config "makes a difference" especially when it comes to
another guy who bullets seem to miraculously have no effect on. Or not the same as everyone else that is.

or any other reason. The fact is you don't have a fucking clue what you are talking about, nor do you have any fucking skill at all. I could jump on wolf right now with a default config and rape you 1 on 1 100 times to 0 b/c you fucking suck at this game

See that's where you're wrong, I know exactly what I'm talking about. Like you said, half of your cfg is default, that means that half isn't. So you got it from Guerilla, no shit, maybe that's why your game reacts just like his.
And don't say you'ld roll me with a default cfg. you know that's a joke, you have a hard enough time with you tweaked cfg. so go fuck yourself.

Don't worry though because I'm done with the server and the small percentage of people like you. It's been fun and thanks to ALL of the ECGN guys/gals. You guys are great but you guys got some serious bullshit going on in game that should be looked into. When you have 10 different players complaining that something isn't right about another player's game (take TTT-Alex for ex.) then I'ld think something is up. Someone actually told him, "WTF, you shot me backwards!" the other night. LOL, it's a joke really. I went spec last-night on the server and said "It's demo recording time" and within 5 seconds he left. This happened the previous night when someone said that they were going to record him as well. What a coincidence. Then he comes back 10 minutes later and says , "Record me warpig". What kind of an idiot does this shithead take me for, it's too aggrivating to me and makes me want to smash shit so I'm out. You guys want to be played a fool that's your decision, I made mine.

So Skippy, I'm "unskilled" huh? That's strange because I'm fucking positive that NOONE has delivered and secured more docs over the last year than me. You were there for a lot of them so... actually when I did have control of the docs I was basically toying with the likes of you, man it was fun. TOUCHDOWN WARPIG! LOL!!! Later Loser.

*btw, what do you (and others) have against retarded people? What did a retarded person ever do to you? Why don't you think before you speak, there's plenty of other terms to use, like the ones I use on you guys such as "Dipshits", "Morons", "Losers", "Pussies", etc...
I've actually smacked the shit out of ppl before for using the word retard as a slur, they hurt feelings so I hurt theirs. It was well deserved and I'ld do it again without a thought because that's the kinda guy I am. You guys should really think twice about who may hear what you're saying. It could be someone like me. That would be very bad for you if you used it twice. Just something to think about.
yeah yeah I'm an internet tough-guy, I know. Believe me I'ld give my left nut to meet half of you people face to face so you can call me a "retard".
