i have noticed more and more lately people yelling at others on our servers because of the betting system. They bet one way, and if it doesn't go their way, they yell at the person that failed them... I didn't pay much attention to it in the past but tonight it even got to me on the high school server when someone who will remain nameless decided to try out the server for the first time ever, plus the first time they had ever played a bomb planting map, and lost a round cause they didn't know they had the bomb until the last second, and lost the round, and had 3-5 people on my terrorist team yelling at them saying they owe them 5k and calling names and all that kind of stuff.

It was so bad that it turned that person off of the high school server and they went back to just doing office again. I know it upset me alot when this happened because they even explained and I explained once i got on the server that it was their first time and to bare with us. I even had to leave after they did because I couldn't believe that our friendly server had gotten so bad at that point and time.

I know some of us give friendly jabs at each other, and that's not what i am talking about because we all know we joke around with each other and it's family fun, it's when the idiots yell and cuss and tell people they owe them money etc for them losing it betting, when all they have to do is join spec and go back to the same team, just got to me tonight, and wondering if any of yall are having similar experiences since the betting system got into place.

I just dont want our servers to turn into something where people dont like to play them anymore cause people are arguing about stupid bets, or turn them off completely on CSS because they are tired of hearing people yell at them in voice and in chat.

What are your thoughts on this type of stuff?
 
Yeah, I quit playing CS:S altogether... If I'm ever on and that happens, it gets taken care of. Take note of the admins that are letting this happen, and I'm sure someone will take care of it.
 
yah Huh i agree with you mostly its fun like ppl say fail but i even admit i don't enjoy being yelled at by team members becuase i failed and if it happened to me i wouldn't feel very welcome. I get what you're saying and i feel kinda bad for that guy that it happened to. From now on its time to have a more positive attitude :D
 
I wouldn't worry about it. Proper admin techniques prevent all of the problems mentioned.
 
I only worry about it cause it was an =e= player that it was done to, and someone i know personally, and I dont want them to get turned off on the game.
 
the betting system is alright...u dont even have to use the betting system neways...just go to spec and then back to a team...causeu get 8k all the time.....and plus ure taking a risk using Bet...its like gambling..u gota 50/50 chance of winning the bet
 
this aint about the bet it self but about harrasment of a new guy, i havent seen any of this except for jokes between players but i sure cant say i would like it after reading this
 
If something like this happens, please notify an admin using @. Any eG or eGO would be more than happy to remind people that respecting others is mandatory if they wish to remain on our servers. Belittling and berating your teammates or opponents is NEVER acceptable, and this rule is firmly enforced (at least by me).

Tempers can always flare when adrenalin is pumping, but there are acceptable outlets (such as shooting that dirty so-and-so who killed you last round in the face :) ).

If no admins are available, please gently remind others on the server that harsh language and abusive or belittling behavior is not permitted. If they don't listen and continue, please fetch an eGO from vent or steam friends. If none are available, the ban request form would provide a delayed response.
 
Yeah but you have to understand we lose all our money! We have to do a round with no money what so ever.
 
It doesn't matter anymore. Bank is back on. Its still in somewhat of a testing phase. We put it on 2 days ago i think. The other servers will get it as soon as its stable enough to run on the other ones.

Please contact a eGO or as him nicely to stop and if he doesn't. Get a eGO in.
