I normally don't post much as you can tell but just wanted share some food for thought:

Last night after the password went up (this thread has nothing to do with pw'ing the server), I took a break and tried some other mods (zombies/paintball)...got old after a couple matches. Took a look around and found an S/D server that was labeled "Tactical".

I hopped on, there was a 40 person limit to the server. The clan's admin had some scrolling rules very similar to the TG server (20secs on frags/helis/as and no wall spamming/blind nading). And they were trying to regulate as best as they could. I walked out of my spawn on Bog (yeah Bog) and 6 of us were sniped off the start on both ends of the game...it was so run and gun with no comm's involved that it made me quit after 5 or so rounds of giving it a shot. Players were ignoring the rules, nades were flying everywhere, walls being spamm'd, people were being absolutely disrespectful in chat (I still can't figure out how people write in books in chat and still play this)...I felt like I was playing Unreal Tournament from 2000 again for kills.

It was a horrendous experience to say the least for what I am looking for in an FPS-

Point being: We have it good. Very good. Especially from an admin perspective and regular player base. There is without a doubt in my own mind that this is the best tactical server out there that is enforced properly from a rules/admin perspective to force you to work as a team. I like pulling up the server ranks and seeing the Top 5 in total points and trying to chase my peers for those 4 spots (there is so much of a disparity in chasing House and Grieg that it makes me sick!)

I am sure I am preaching to the choir on this, but should you ever get frustrated, take a couple moments to think...maybe try another server and see what that's like. I think alot of us regular players have done this; its a good refresher once in a while and re-enforces your appreciation for the hard work that the community has put into it all to maintain its integrity-
