fun and cs maps ugh

(Although assualt was always funny i guess)

I just find it odd that the cs community which seems to have evolved past the pub hero stage into a small but competitive scene still has public servers that have cs maps and all the baggage that comes with them

They are just fun to run around and shoot in. pew pew

Was on server, me and a bot versus pringles. Thank god for that bot clutching. <3

So half the game isn't "find the bomb/hostage site". Eveyone knows office, so everyone knows what to do. I'm a (very) casual CSS player, and I know my way around dust, dust2, office, and maybe one other (the one with the trains). Sure, you'll get to know the maps in time, but if 20 nooblets pop onto an unknown map, it's you, versus 5 members of a clan on the opposite team, and 14 headless chickens running around, one with the bomb. You play a well known CS map, and even the nooblets will know what diraction to go, and the game will be less stressful/more fun.

They don't have any public servers anymore

Website is still there though...

Yeah we dont have public CSS servers anymore, they dont get very populated these days.

They were quite popular a few years back, and then we had some server issues which resulted in a few weeks of down time.

I guess the regulars found new homes in the mean time as we were never able to get the servers near as populated as they used to be

Kaks tried for months after to try and get the server activity going again to no avail.

Only the IOA deathmatch server was booming with activity around the clock.

Then our CL kinda became distant from the clan and eventually faded away, and we eventually lost our "Sponsorship" with Rackage and that was the end of that

And IOA as a clan/community is very inactive at the moment, but i dont doubt they will be back in the near future

Decent enough server although I don't think the all talk is a good idea. Hard to build a community when everyone is using the voice commands.
Also not too into servers with AWP as it encourages camping and takes a lot of the fun out of the game

Yeh, I turned the alltalk off and put the stats to calculate by points rather than k-d. The server is getting busier these days

and I like to hear what people think so I can change some things... cheers for that

Also, AWP is restricted to one per team... I think this is ok

Hi Guys,

The Ec CSS server is going well... but we need more Irish members... most of our members are from the rest of the EU at the mo, which is good, but us Irish founders would like to see more Irish involved (that was the plan in the first place

)

Ec is more of a community than a clan... however, we do have clan matches etc, though I'm not involved in that stuff. So if your interested in joining us, or indeed playing with your fellow Irishmen, visit the server 85.236.101.53:27215

Its 24 slot at the mo, but it will be 28 slot at the end of the month... apart from VIA, we probably have one of the very few popular Irish servers left.

Hopefully, we can get more throughput to make it more worthwhile keeping it going
