Recruitment
neXt
Posted by Clark: | Last Online:
So, season 10 is over.
We got a 3rd place in our division, but let's be honest – it wasn't the easiest division at all, and we were lacking practice half of the time.
Long story short: Mr. G wanted to play scout, Coco wanted a more active team, and Link just doesn't seem it's right to reform without those two. I'd like to wish all the good luck to them in the future.
Let’s get start.
Who we are: we are a nice bunch of guys who enjoy playing together, have enough skill to compete on the level we are aiming for and who just like chilling out in mumble before/after the games are played.
What our aim for now is: we are definitely going to the division 3 next season and that is the minimum we are gonna start practicing our games from. I don't want to say anything particular right now, but if we get good results we might even push div2 next season.
What we are looking for:
A medic. Being a main caller and having division 3 experience is appreciated, but we will still trial you if you only had div4 experience and think you can handle our level.
A pair of soldiers. Division 3 or top division 4 experience is obligate. You should always be calm, listen to your medic, and not rage at all – it’s medic’s job. Also, if you already played together it is a huge plus.
We are playing 4 nights a week (sun-thurs with one day-off), 3-4 maps a day, so, be ready for this.
If you are interested, you can contact me through steam starting this Sunday, since I’m going away for a weekend. After that we will talk about trials.
Cheers,
neXt

I had so much fun playing with this team back in the day. Many memories in it. The three remaining players are awesome guys. I wish you all the very best of luck, fellas!
Why leave Dakka already though? :(
Someone should have let me write it. DAKKA IS DEAD, LONG LIVE NAKKA
I really enjoyed the time I’ve been in this team. A nice bunch of guys with some great skills individually already!
Good luck guys :)
LOOOUUULLL??!!
Clark, message me.
“If you are interested, you can contact me through steam starting this Sunday, since I’m going away for a weekend. After that we will talk about trials.”
please remember to read this…..
also dont add me ore dark
Me Maybe ?
Good luck. Clark is awesome ::)
I think they lost their 3 most capable and consistent players, so 3/2 may be a bit ambitious.
But there’s absolutely nothing wrong with ambition, so GL with your search.
Kicked Deri and Bears, you have no idea just how devastated they were guys!
From what I’ve seen, good players with a tonne of potential, gl
Trane, all of our team’s players were/are capable and consistent, and I don’t think div3/2 is that ambitious since it is the level we had been playing on right before losing Coco, Mr. G and Link.
All I know about turbo is that when he is in the middle of a mix, but gets offered a mix that he would rather play. He pulls the plug on his internet, sets steam to offline, and goes to play the different mix, not giving a bear of thought about the 11 people he just left stranded. Its pretty much the least panda thing you can do in tf2.. :(
GL finding players for div2, last I heard you were playing div3 pcw pretty solidly, im sure you will do well :).
that was a one off :(
dodgydogman, the one and only time turb0 did it was when we had to play a clan war match, and he didn’t want to disappoint guys in a mix. Kind of stupid, but happened one time only, and not because he was offered a different mix.
Turbo has done it to dodgy before when I asked him to mix with me. I’d watch out for turbo, hes a sneaky one.
Not from what iv heard from players on the team, that it wasn’t for a pcw and hes done it more than once, however.
I find it hard to believe that:
1. You dont have days/times that you generally pcw, so to easily not mix when you know you are going to pcw.
2. He couldnt tell his team that he was in a mix and that he was an idiot for getting it and would have to finish the mix.
3. He couldnt tell the mix that his team needed him for a pcw and only leave after you have got a merc for the mix instead of just leaving the team to sort it out.
4. His team mates didnt ask him why he was set as offline, and when they found out told him that it was a insanely shitty thing to do and to go back and get a merc or at least tell them.. Maybe thats just me..
He was a nice enough person, just that kind of thing is ridiculously selfish :( but hopefully doesn’t reflect him as a whole..
People tend to get angry when I use logic, so Inb4 “omg that dodgy is just a dik nub”.
inb4 witty comment

you’ve brought a shame upon your house, Turb0, you have forsaken dodgydogman.
If you write something witty itl make my argument invalid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcsdrm_CxQw
Or you could just do the classy thing: apologise, say you wont do it again.. If you had done that I wouldnt have even posted the massive essay.
What dodgydogman is trying to say, is that I put my team above all else. I dont even have time for a goodbye when they ask me to play; if that dedication isnt what a potential trialist is looking for then i dont know what is.
oh and btw ziggy, thanks for the bumps
If my mum asks me to get milk from the store, if I cut in line to pay for it, it doesnt show that im super nice to my mum, it just shows that im a dick.
Louis, players are most likely looking for a team that is good natured and frankly classy. The response for getting caught doing something dicky and selfish shouldnt be try and lie about it and make jokes, as all that is doing is strengthening the possibility that your team isnt a very nice group of people. Not all press is good press.

inb4 a comment about a church
Drama alert. Drama alert.
I see of this situation less like getting milk for my mum, more of me playing basketball with my friends. I am going for a basket and I see a child playing in the road in front of oncoming traffic. It doesnt matter how important the game is or how much they want me to score, im going to save that child. Quitting your mix doesnt make me a douche it makes me a hero, saving the life of my team and leaving your mix.
I have no idea why you are bringing this up randomly when it happened more than a few weeks ago and to bring it up on our recruitment post is just low. If you really want to try and humiliate me publicly for whatever reason im fine with that but imo i would rather do this over steam chat and not waste anyones time or dissuade potential recruits.
What you said. Makes no sense. Its hilarious.
Il break my argument down even further I guess (I used an analogy so you would get it.. but apparently not..)
Even though you are obviously trolling at this point as nobody could really think that makes any sense, its fun to break down silly arguments.
I used an analogy to help you both explain my argument again but address your previous argument. In the analogy, the mother represents your team, the people in the line represents the mixers that you annoyed. Cutting in line represents the thing you did.
In your analogy the basket ball team represents your team, the basket I guess represents your team wanting to mix (which in itself isnt a good representation and is obviously trying to make out your team’s need to pcw more important that it really is) but who is the kid and what is the traffic supposed to mean!?
Il give you another analogy I guess.
Your playing basketball with a group of friends. A second group asks you to play. You simply walk away from the first group and then go play with the second group, instead of simply finishing the match, finding a replacement player or simply telling the truth.
Also the fact that you are fine with me trying to “publicly humiliating” you and the fact that you dont want me to post this where people can see are literally two opposite opinions…
All iv done here is mention something rude you did, and then explain why your explanations make no sense.
Internet is srs bsns man, step up or sit down.
TURBO JUST GOT SAT
im sorry but you seem to have misunderstood my analogy. I am currently playing basketball in your mix and carrying.My team is in need, just like the child, and they have an infinite amount of priority. I have already said to you this argument is over as you have nothing with any actual basis except some loose concept of internet morals. Go play with some lego and leave TF2 to the real men
wanna mix turbo
Bad analogy makes no sense.
Its literally retarded to compare a child about to be hit by a car to your team wanting to pcw.
You are using a stupid argument to justify leaving a mix without finding a replacement or even saying anything, showing you dont care about 11 people.
Also, lets stop pretending it was even for a pcw. Mr. G String, your medic at the time, was in the mix with us, he was the one who said “he does this all the time” right after you left.
Also I called it
“People tend to get angry when I use logic, so Inb4 “omg that dodgy is just a dik nub”.”
“Go play with some lego and leave TF2 to the real men”
Dodgy, haven’t you got something better to do? like build a bionicle or something? what is the fucking point of wasting your time flaming a recruitment post, when all potential trialists will find out what the team is like. You aren’t doing them a favour by ‘warning them about neXt’ and you arent doing neXt any favours by trying to push your point of view where its not wanted. If you have beef with turbo TAKE IT UP WITH HIM ON STEAM, if you have beef with the team TAKE IT UP ON STEAM, people who post brainless negative comments get on my fucking nips. If you reply to this you obviously haven’t read it, so just rest of your laurels knowing that you’ve been helping fight the supervillains of TF2 as you work on your drawing of a house for creche.
Btw dodgy, i have nothing against you, this is just vented anger at people who put negative things on recruitment posts, i honestly cant figure out why.
PS, you’ve probably started wring your reply by now, have a look at line 7 of this post again.
Thanks
Oh cry me a river. It’s a only a game. I know principles are involved but c’mon dude its not like your life is over. Its come to a point now where one of us has to look like the better person and atm we both look like faggots arguing over some pitty thing. I am being defensive but that’s only because i have no reason to attack, you have made your point move on. I literally have no interest in this any more just a massive time waste. If your only here to hear me appoligize, you have just lost it. cya around x
If you look at my initial reply, it consisted of a concern I had about the team, but that they would do fine in div3.
They reply with a lie. I inform them that their reply is wrong and it escalates.
My flaw is that I need to get the last word in. His fault is that he leaves mixes without giving a shit and lies about it when its brought up.
Recruitments posts are simply walls for people to post OMG PLAYED WITH TEAM LUV U, they are for people to post what they think of the team, in order to allow recruiters to gage whether they would be a good fit for the team.
No reason to resort to insults..
Chaplain, I think there is always place for negative comments on recruitment posts if they are warranted. It’s entirely possible to have a good trial and end up joining a team that later turns out to be a bunch of dickbags (not saying this is the case here). Likewise a team searching for a player deserves to know if they have reliability/rage issues – I’ve been glad of respected opinions myself when recruiting players.
It’s kinda sad what you did Turbo, and it’s more sad that you seem to be trying to maintain the high-ground by not apologising when it in fact has the direct opposite effect. It would reflect on you much better if you just said “Yeah, sorry about that”.

Im sorry trane, but I dont think there is a place. If they are potential things to work on then fair enough, but your opinion of a so called ‘dickbag’ is entirely different to another mans, and putting this down isnt suitable. I have been the victim of it a few times where sour people have put stuff down on my recruitment posts, making teams decide not to trial me, which later merced me and thought i would have been perfect for the spot. If you have some beef with the person take it up with them. I think this discussion has gone on long enough, and i dont think next should be suffering for this (and also i think putting a comment about turbo was unwarranted too, especially considering its not just his rec post) if you guys would be willing to discuss the finer points of recruitment post commenting, then I am available, as always, in #vanillatv or through steam, and I’d love to do so, but for now dodgy, try and improve on your ‘flaw’ and don’t get the last word in. It doesnt make look like a better man, and it doesnt make you a victor; there are no victors here and the only losers are neXt gaming, whos recruitment post we have defaced due to concerns about a player, the basis of which was created weeks ago.
Fin
flames for wanting the last word.
tries to get last word.
Turbo once hit my grandma and slept with my sister and beat my dog, all in one night. He’s an awful person :C
cool team, should do well in div3 once they get the lineup sorted. Ignore this shit above (hilarious though it is) and just ask for a trial if you wanna see how awesome they are.
dodgydogman, I really have nothing against you and that’s why I will only ask you to apologise for the posts you made and for trying to start a flame war.
Not only you called me a liar when I said that turb0 has left a mix for pcw, you also started saying bad things about him, and that is not what people do on recruitment posts.
“Im sorry trane, but I dont think there is a place. If they are potential things to work on then fair enough”
In my eyes, working on conducting yourself in a better manner would fit that bill (i.e.) not letting down a group of 11 friends and acquaintances. Maybe that’s just me, I value conduct and respect quite highly and am very dictatorial in making sure my team does their best to follow suit.
Also, the fact this happened ‘weeks ago’ makes the act history and almost irrelevant?
In the very first instance, someone did something wrong, it could have gone away immediately if it was apologised for or even acknowledged. Would you agree?
As it is, we’re running round in circles debating recruitment post etiquette.
I have already addressed everything you have said in your post clark.
“Not only you called me a liar when I said that turb0 has left a mix for pcw”
“Also, lets stop pretending it was even for a pcw. Mr. G String, your medic at the time, was in the mix with us, he was the one who said “he does this all the time” right after you left.”
“trying to start a flame war”
“All iv done here is mention something rude you did, and then explain why your explanations make no sense.”
Seriously, either say “sorry, I was wrong to do that, il stop in the future”, provide an actual argument for your actions. All you are doing is trying to avoid it by being immature…
amazing
THIS IS SO FUCKING GAY
daleth, you asshole
i like this team and the players contained within this team, good luck gents.
Alright, we got enough soldier trials for now, we still need more medic trials.
take esk as medic :D
P.S. good team, gl guys
More soldier trials needed again.
sick team, with the right medic this team can easily go div3 to push div2 easily
future medic trials: don’t say you can main call when you’re english is pretty bad and you can hardly call simple things like “I’m dead” – just a a little thing I have noticed when specing them :p

Turbo told me to post they are only looking for German recruits with funny accents
turbo ruined yet another mix today. he decided to talk to his friend all the way through so he muted/deafened. waste of time….
Still looking for a soldier.
