Well all of the well friendly replies have redeemed the actions of Eso! It means a lot that everyone would show some understanding and not just throw more of what I got from Eso. :)

Thanks a lot for the suggestions and I will definitely check them out before joining a public server again!

Hehe, yeah I know what you're talking about, I'm in the Fo server all the time, and Essorcismo usually starts stuff, but I just mostly ignore it now. XiD and mainly all the others were cool to me though..:)

I´m a Noob from Brazil and, besides one or another a$$ all the players halp and get me tips how to play well (even from the other team).
The DB players are very cool and show pacience (specially when i got a chickengoal - as a keeper and do not play well)

My only problem in my "learning curve" is the PING very high, because the server are in another continent!!!!

So, when its impossible to even move "online" i play with bots (duhhh).

Anyway, the community is very open and receptive to new players as me...so enjoy the game!

Heh, glad to hear positive sounds too :)

But what's a chickengoal? /o\ own goal? :o easy goal?

And I think you should be able to get a decent ping in some Texan servers or whatever (didn't RusH have a server somewhere in Texas? :\ or was that Chicago? ;p).

Hf playing the game D:

Sorry about Esor...he is a real douche to noobs....hell hes a douche to just about everyone....He will be straightened out...just a matter of time...But if you are a noob join up our server again and just ask for some help...I know a lot of players (myself included) would be glad to pull you aside to a separate server (or change Fø's to regular depending on the situation) and teach you REAL deathball....Not the Volley Only side show...

The best way to learn is to start with a experienced player a 1on1 Session on
one the involved machines.

64K connections is enough for one external player.

I did this with a mate for 30 mins, and showed the way of boosting, passing on so on.

After 30 Min we joined a public (1234) and he was't blamed, he did some good passes and even scored. :)

Well, I'm a :noob: too, but players seem to be pretty undertstanding. I'm advertising for this game all over the place, since I play GravBall (Infantry zone)... It's very similar in the general theory of the game. I absolutely love this mod.

It's given me a reason to play UT2004, for once. :p
