i might be the the only one

[stewie574]

ok, when i play dod:s on ego websites, i feel so uncomfortable talking through a mic because i'm typically talking to eGO's or advisors or anyone higher than eG. i also feel this way in vent as well. anybody else feel this way?

You're just a little nervous, learn to relax and talk to people. They are all only human, no matter what their rank, don't be afraid to put a few words in, I'm sure they'll understand.

Yes we are humans, except for Idol he's a Machine!

I have it from a reliable source that Quaffer is actually a black sheep.

eG's and eGO's need friends too.

I'll let you in on a little secret. Most admins would rather spend their time playing than doing the admin thing. We like interacting with people, as long as they are following the rules. The interactions we have with people who don't follow the rules just distract us from playing the game. We do the admin because we like servers where people don't have to put up with disrespect. We don't do it because we get our jollies out of warning, kicking, and banning people.

So use your mic. I for one want to know when the bad guys are making a push on that second flag.

Listen to the Slightly Exalted Pooh-Bah! I don't think I could say it better myself

For about three months straight, I just laughed really hard at anything remotely funny.. then when I broke the ice, it's been easy since.

 

[DanJK]

Like everyone else is said, talk to us, be yourself and you will make a bunch of new friends. If I hadn't ever talked on ventrilo or ingame, I don't think id have nearly as many friends in eGO. So go talk, have fun and everything will work out

I find its easier if you typically look down on the administration. We typically only put up with them because lets face it, we are too busy being awesome out there on the battlefield to be worried with doing paperwork and organizing things. thats why we have to find suckers, aka "Administration", and give them a inflated sense of "control" over some petty things to get them to do this. Not only do they do it but they do it for FREE!

I know! I was pretty shocked that anyone could be so noobish!

so try to think of the "Reality" of the situation next time you get nervous. many of them are the same as the =e='s out there but with more time on their hands. And of course an inflated sense of ego.

PS: Whatever you do, DO NOT let them know how the system really works! If our bluff is ever called and they find out the truth, we would have to go find more of these suckers or "Admin" if you will.

 

[Naku_vamp]

What game mode has a second flag?

What game mode has a second flag?

The thread started out with DoD. Most maps in DoD have 5 flags. The team that holds all the flags wins the round. Think Capture Points if it makes it easier for you.

 

[Idol]

Stewie, don't be afraid to talk to us. Except for Dominion, everyone posting in this thread was an e at one time. We were all once right where you are now.

Yes we are humans, except for Idol he's a Machine!

Who dares invoke my name?

Yes stewie574, we are very scary people. Don't mess with us or the rules. We aren't afraid of anyone.......oops, here comes my wife. Gotta go!

 

[BvB]

I used to be like that. A mute in game, a mute in vent.

Then I started to warden in jail. And I mean, you have to be able to taunt leadership after you get a melee weapon kill on them because if you don't, then you're just not having enough fun.

But get CS:S and warden on jail, that was my cure. Just talk to us how you'd talk to anyone else. Because honestly, if I hear someone call Ill Legend "sir" on vent... I'll rofl.

 

[I SURVIVED LONDON BLITZ]

I feel the same way, but have got used to it now. Just need a good mic so they can hear me.
