Every server I have ever been on bans you if you are even remotely good.

well-admined servers do not exist.

Ah the whole "servers with admins" myth. Admins never hack of course! So easy to find "servers with admins" just connect to steam, look for a server with admins! So simple. Yeah right.



Why don't you give us a guide to finding these mythical "servers with admins"? Or better yet give us ones that don't have a ping higher than 200?

Well then I'm a myth then...



W00T!



There is a problem being a admin on a server. You have to kick remotly good people because the anti-hack programs work once in a while (ie. when a dumb ass uses a bunny script that is a program not a script). When someone is realllllly good, it makes server goers very mad, adn eventualy depressed because they can't get a kill because this supossed cal player is kicking the living shit out of them. That's not how people play! So its not fair for them to get a killing high off newbies. They are still learning so they should get off the server. And if they are hacking they should definantly get off the server.



Plus hacking isnt obvious. You can't just look at someone and say they are hacking, I know this, but someone who has hacks isnt going to let it be obvious (they arnt going to run around with speed hack all the way on and no recoil on plus auto aim). They try to look like someone that is really good. I ran into someone on my server that had something on and kept getting head shot awp kills on iceworld @ spawn, all walled.



Obvious...



Plus there are some idiot admins on my server, ones that get mad and perm ban. They are however my friends and I can't do anything about it.

i wonder why valve never implemented they P2P interface they have built into Steam

[.Sn0w.]

Australian servers have a great number of respected admins that are always on and around keeping servers clean I guess you just have to pick the right servers that have strict rules when putting on admins.

Bring up the server list, click first on the Ping column title bar, then on the B for Bots title bar (if that column isn't displayed, right click on the column title bars and make sure it's selected). Scroll down past all the Bot servers, and start sifting through the servers with low pings. Right click on a server, and get more information about it. Look at the player list, and you'll generally see admins on that server. For example, if a server is called "Land of Wootberries" and you see a bunch of players on with "-~^={|| LoW ||}=^~-" tags in their names, chances are they're admins. Or some are, if not all.

You are soooooo mistaken, I don't even know where to begin. Admins do not always ban you. In my experience, they usually just abuse you until you get sick of it and leave yourself. This is sort of the "Jack Kevorkian" method of banning. But whoah, folks! I'm not going to just make vague statements like this without backing it up with a citation!

When someone with this kind of thought process is the most restrained admin on his server, that's a server that you will last five minutes on before you start getting slapped, frozen, burned, buried, and otherwise abused until they finally perma ban you or you log off. What does the leader of the clan do? Why, they're his friends, and he can't do anything about it. Not that he would mind in the slightest, either. After all, if you're any good at the game, you shouldn't be playing it, right? This is a game for newbies only! *shakes head sadly* Yi, yi, yi.
