I'll be reporting anyone who is an a-hole in game to new players or spouts the usual dribble about the steam player base. No need for snide remarks about peoples choice of builds. It's bad enough when you're experienced and just trying new things for fun, but it's worse when you're a new player and learning the game and what works for you.

Not looking good though, there's a new troll account (obvious by the name) going around team killing at the drop zones. If this twit keeps making new accounts, as I assume he'll keep being banned quickly, it's going to put off a lot of new players who suffer because of him.

Some of you may remember this piece from when the game "launched" a couple years back. I believe it bears repeating before another sizable influx of clueless, new players. You can find the uncensored version over at OutreachHPG.


Remember that it’s another human being sitting in that cockpit. If you wouldn’t say it to their face, why say it at all?

well, this means PGI should just automute half the "Pro" crowd preemptively..........

But I fully support this message.

You forgot to put a NARC on your Dire Wolf. Otherwise excellent post, and I hope all members of the community consider this in the coming days!

This.

I would say it is the obligation of those of us who wish to see this game succeed to nurture our new MechWarriors. Guide them toward effective builds, counsel them on tactics and efficiency, help them over the learning cliff as smoothly as possible.
