Also stay away from omni now more than even, that servers gone to shit and I cant play there under JDub.

One last thing UT WAS NOT MEANT TO BE AN RPG STAY AWAY FROM MONSTER MASH IT KILLED SPAM VIKINGS!!!
Denial much?

Years ago when RPG was less then popular, ONS ruled UT. Now, players have inevitably started burning out on it and moving on to new games (CoD, TF2, CS:S/1.6) and gametypes (MM/RPG.) TIME killed SV, and it'll kill every other game/gametype as well.

Oh man, I'm going to miss them good ol' days with LMS on UT classic & Instangib CTF without botters.

I don't have UT classic anymore. Is the online comunity still active there?

I still enjoy ONS. I don't play it as much, sure. But you can only take TankMeUp or MantaMeUp or ShockMeUp maps so much before it just becomes stale. I pretty much blame the lowest common denominator for that (BTW, the same issue applies to Monster Mash - The retardedly easy maps that get played over and over again drive people away after awhile)

Denial? Of what?

I can understand people burning out on ONS what with the direction its going but that still doesn't excuse the crap that is MM. MM is a perversion of the UT engine, a fundamentally flawed creation that should never have been attempted. It is an exercise in madness and those who choose it over DM, TAM and ONS should be punished.

Hey man

What's wrong with Monster Mash?

It's buggy nature? Besides that it probably stems from my deep seated hatred of RPG in UT.

Nothing wrong with RPG in UT in noncompetitive gametypes.

You've created a powerful enemy JDub :evil5:

I'm just kidding. It's an opinion & I have nothing against it. I don't think this online Multiplayer PVP is suppose to be a Player vs Monster RPG lol, but it's fun though :)

Welcome Ack-Ack!

Welcome to the forums, and hope to see you in the MM servers soon.

As for JDub, looks like freedom of choice isn't something he subscribes to if it isn't what he likes. I avoid people like that.
