Edit: You know what? Nevermind. I'm going to post this where it's most relevant... The Ren-Archives forums.
Second Edit: Alright, for those who're curious, I posted the following:| Quote: |
Well, "non00bs" is on my "List," now. And it takes quite a lot to get on said "List". But to summarize, it's a horrible, horrible server. Tunnel beaconing out the ass... Useless community... Lack of moderators... Moderators who don't do jack about anything...useful. But I do have to admit, one Moderator in particular was especially kind to me. One by the name of "dog455555". Yeah, real nice guy. When I alerted him to GDI's ceaseless tunnel beacon spamming, his respond was, and I quote, "O.O". And that's it. I then later asked what server I'd managed to jump into(seeing as my memory sucks and I just picked one where Nod was lacking people, seeing as I wanted to take a screenshot of a stealthed Stealth Tank) and he replied "Non00bs. So go away." My, how socialable! That certainly is Grade-A moderator material there! Must get these folk from some real ripe stuff, I tell you what.
Yeah. Despite its apparent popularity, I'm convinced from today's thirty minutes there that it sucks. Hard. And it's sad that I found this out over the course of only thirty minutes, too. But yeah. I think Non00bs should be Ion Cannon spammed right off the Internet.
But that's just my two cents. ...well, not entirely. But if I continue, I'm certain I'll say something that will jeopardize my status as an upstanding member of this community, Heaven forbid.

If you have anything to say either for or against what I've said, take it to this thread instead of cluttering up this post. Why? Drama.
Peace.

to quote you... | Dr. Lithius |

Hypocrit?
Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

What part of "I joined a random server" did you not catch, folks? I'm not purposely being a hypocrite as I never read the rules to the server, alright? I swear, you people swarm like locusts when someone does something stupid, even when it's purely inedverted. Besides, that doesn't change the fact the single moderator on-duty was an ass to me instead of simply stating "Hey. Tunnel-beaconing is allowed here. Please calm down."
Ya know what really fries me, though? They weren't even doing it right. Instead of using it to destroy the Tiberium Refinery, they were just spamming it to point-whore. Which is bullshit. If you're gonna do something that asinine, I say at least do it right.

Can't you just understand the fact that the higher the server is listed in the Game Listenings, the more noobs there play in?
And dog455555 is a complete idiot.

I agree with the first point wholly. The n00bs seem to congregate in servers such as NS, RA, NoN00bs, and Jelly; (BC gets some too), while there are servers (such as HT's) that practically never get activity due to the a00000 nick race...:'(

despite all the crying, non00bs has the best players among all communites except clanwars.cc and maybe jelly games.
before you flame (cry) me, just a reminder that so called "pro servers" such as n00bstories and pits lost to us. if you think im wrong then go ahead and set up another game. you pick 15-20 players from the top of your list and i will pick non00bs regurals.
i agree with the part that moderators treat others like shit, but hey, welcome to the internetS!

Non00bs has a different type of gaming atmosphere. If you don't play to win every game then you won't like it there. The quality of players in the server aren't matched anywhere else. We've challenged every community and won each time, except against Clanwars, which really isn't a server community.

Having good players doesnt count for anything if you have crappy rules(tunnel beaconing allowed? wtf?) and mods.

I've been challenged a lot more in BBF's server than in NoN00bs' and Jelly's 18 player server.

Tunnel beaconing was what was allowed on all servers a couple years ago, it's better. I don't care whether some people consider it a glitch or not, it gives incentive to control the tunnels and promotes teamwork.
