I don't know if some of you people have fallen and hit your heads over the last year, but, judging by what goes on in the pubs, the following bears posting. Though I'd bet some of you have never bothered to read it before.

AssaultCube is supposed to be a game in which computers and internet connections that wouldn't fly in other games can be acceptable. When idiots run around kicking everyone whose ping isn't in the green, regardless of their PJ, regardless of whether they're lagging or there's a consistent, appreciable delay causing unfair kills, that part of AC fades away.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that some of you need to get the fuck over it. This isn't CoD or whatever fancyass modern game you like to play where everyone lives next door to the server and has <100ms ping. If someone isn't causing problems in the game — slightly high ping is not a problem in itself — don't give them a hard time over it. And if they are causing a problem, mention something instead of immediately kicking or otherwise being a dick about it. Everything isn't about you. People aren't turning on torrents and joining games just to fuck up your day, so don't take it all so personally.
