LET'S MAKE MBII GREAT AGAIN
No, honestly, this will pain me to suggest, because a lot of the people I indirectly refer to here are friends or people who tend to make me laugh and enjoy myself. But come on... This HAS to be sorted out!
I recently had a three week break from MBII out of total boredom combined with real-life activities, but like every other MBII lover I always come back. And oh boy... every time I come back, it's a little bit worse, ain't i? And why? Well, having thought about it after my last endavour - this time on TIN Open - It's just getting more and more obvious to me. And damn, it killed my joy playing the game again faster than three bags of potato chips down a fat woman's throat.
SS7. SS7 Lovers. Melee worshippers. Timewasters. Trolls. TIN Open (or as it should be named; Troll Server - Open - We Encourage Tk's and Timewaste).
I played one hour from 17-18 yesterday, and TIN Open was the only populated EU Server. There were two guys camping on four different maps, wasting what would be about 2 minutes every round for those 60 minutes. They also did a fair bit of tking. About 10-19 people during the course of that hour used the !report function to no avail. In the end, what would of been my usual 3-hours gameplay, turned into a very somber and bored 60 minutes (for better or worse, I suppose).
Then, I came back at 23:00 for a 60-90 minutes before bed to fully enjoy myself - and fuck the nanny sideways, what a shitshow. 30 people on the server. 15 of them trolls. It was tks from left to right, timewaste every single round, planned tk raids to other servers to then come back and tk and troll more (but I suppose less than on the other one) on TIN. The few new players i could identify were complaining about tks and timewaste, and left shortly after, whilst I remained in hopes of some sort of proper gameplay. This never happened, and the trolling continued until I at least left for the night about an hour later.
Here's the real problem, guys:
This isn't something that happens from time to time. This happens EVERY time TIN Open is the server to go to. I suppose many of them use SS7 nicks under alias - or just fucking love these trolls so much that they won't do nothing about it. And it's all good to have some fun. It's the reason we all play this game; for fun.
But it isn't fun to ruin the game for everyone else. It's not fun to try to play a game, but are forced to spectate a bunch of clowns run around on walls and shouting "FALL BACK" for 3 minutes whilst the rest of the team's player's are dead, clinging on to hope that one of them will end the other.
And it's definitely not fun to watch new players try to learn the game (a game that might just now before this night have gotten their attention) leave in confusion and hopelessness as they go back to whatever other games they find a lot more entertaining than watching trolls run on walls, nade eachother or tk a guy by accident but get away with it by saying "Oops" x8 times and the admin finding it chuckle-worthy.
So, to end my little rant:
TIN Open, SS7, and trolls are completely and utterly killing this MOD. If you want to keep this game alive, you gotta kill some little bunnies... And you do it by creating an anti-troll mechanic. There are many ways to do this, but it has to be manufactured from outside the admin rights. Because the player's have stopped giving a shit. Let the game live, guys.
