*sigh*

Yes I do suck really badly at all DoDs games but not for the reasons you're
on about.

I used to play CS 1.6 - My clan was formed out of a non gaming community - a
large London based messageboard. Some of us are veteran gamers, others are
complete noobs. A lot of the fun is trying to help noobs develop their
skills over time.

We're mostly in our 30s and 40s and playing a bunch of laid back people in
the evenings is great.

Good luck with whatever you are doing, I really do mean that. I wouldn't
dream of doing what you're doing because unfortunately the type of community
you are trying to run, is there to attract the best skilled gamers.

My community is about laid back people having a laugh and fun.

Your community has to deal with a high proportion of mentally ill people up
their own backsides.

My community does not.

Each one to their own.

Cheers.

Chris you must suck really bad at all DOD games if you like source.
DODS is only liked by people who suck at the games.
you probably go negative in pubs...

DoDs is a WW2 shoot-out game. The guest pass system is being tested on that
game AND it's a "marketing ploy" - a rather good and welcome one at that. It
means that I all those people in my clan, who have only CS:S can try out
DoDs on my DoDs server - they see that it's a good game and a community
atmosphere is built on my DoDs server. After a month, I can see most of them
shelling out for DoDs.....and so can Valve by the looks of it.

Why DoD:S in particulary?
Is it being tested on that game? Or is it a marketing ploy?
