TT use to be great online community that anyone could play around on, but now it has truly changed. Although I don't frequently play TT as I use to, I can see great change in TT. A few day earlier, I see a normal demo who came into a scrum game who was doing no harm, but playing like everyone else. Suddenly, he gets yelled at by a veteran player who starts cursing at him for no particular reason, except for the fact the demo killed the veteran while that veteran had the ball. That's very pathetic. Why would you be yelling at a demo for killing you, but not a respected veteran? Why not just tell them of their wrongs? There's a good chance that most of them will change their behaviour if you give them a freakin' chance in the game. I know some of you are going to say "But what about TANTY and the other freakers who mess around on the SW servers?" Seriously people. What are the odds that every single demo we see are actually like TANTY? When we (yes I include myself) diss demos for their wrongs, we are not only discouraging them to buy the game and experience the true depths of TT, we would be making the company who created this game lose potential buyers. Now do we really want that from happening

I have seen admins kick out new players who are not really known in the TT community for making a mistake that another vet has just made. I asked some admins how they felt with the admin power, and they reply "I feel more powerful than ever". My gosh. Some admins just have no respect nowadays for other players, but themselves and friends. If vets get a fair warning, so do the new players and demoes.

I have seen players blame lag on another player when the player is at the top of the scorelist, and are at their best. When these players do bad, they are never complained about. I have seen some players blame lag on a player that is on the other team, and is doing well during a game of scrum. But when that player is on their team, those who complained before don't say a word. Pssshh. Lag my @$$. Just because they are doing better than usual, doesn't mean you have to bog down on them like they were a freak or loser. Frankly, when you diss those players, they tend to play much worse after sometimes, just so they won't be complained on again. I know. I've done this numerous times, where people will blame me for lagging. All I'll do is suddenly become clumsy in the game, where that little whiner stops complaining about me, and starts bogging down on someone else. Now I know some of you know of my notorious lag reputation that has been created by some good fellow veterans, but cmon. You're the only one complaining on the team, so why are you even saying this (crap)? Of course, in truth, this has happened where I have lagged a server, but it doesn't happen every freakin time! If I had a dollar for every false blame put on me, and then I'd play clumsy so that whiner would stop complaining, I'd probably have enough to buy a new up-to-date Mac.

I have seen so much happen on TT these past weeks, that it is unbelievable. We have vets now screaming at each other for what seems to be a seemingly harmless little argument. Players blame lag for their mistakes. It seems now that TT is not what it use to be. Is this so called a friendly online community now a hostile one? This is only my perspective of the changes in TT, but you all may have different ones. Go ahead and post what you feel, but my thoughts will remain the same...for now.

I have kept my mouth hut for long about these issues, but I feel that TT has gone to an all new low. We should watch out.

As lord Sidius (sp) Said... " Anyone who gains power is afraid to loose it, even the jedi"

@AO
Spoken as a true wise old man of the game. Well done.

I think you should check out LGM's Code of Conduct thread, maybe that would be a way to help the community.

Glad I don't have TT right now...

We need to encourage newer players more not diss them

Let's Kick Some Ass! =)

We can get a freakin' riot goin' on here.

Nicely said AO.
