The admins here want the friendlies to go to trade/idle servers, while the people that friendly want the people who are opposed to it to go and play actual competitive. I cannot tell you how many times I have seen this argument being said and it's pretty much lost its weight at this point. People are just telling each other what to do and that NEVER goes well. A lot of people nowadays see a tf2 server as having your players and your friendly players, it's just part of the game to them and banning it from your average pub server is unthinkable. To the casual player, it's like banning a class.
What these people don't realize though, is that they can go to just about ANY other server. I don't understand why they need to be on Skial to do it. Heck, you can do it on valves own servers and no one will say anything about it.
I consider Skial to be like a little safe haven. It's the one place I can go and not really have to worry about useless players, while maintaining a 12+ team format and relaxed gameplay. Think of it like a little island, with the ocean being all other servers that allow friendly, and competitive being waaaaay out in the distance.
Everybody's got their favorite little island or ocean (server), and there's no need to try and take one over when you can just head south a few miles and be greeted with open arms.
Skial is targeted towards people with intentions like mine, and all the other people that enjoy playing here. I'm SURE there is a server out there that will suit all your needs.
Just deal with it and find something else you enjoy. No need to try and change this one when there are plenty of others with your "criteria".
(For different folks)
Kind of a weird and extended analogy but lets go with it.
This is not directed towards you Meowcenary or any other particular admin. I personally don't care too much for friendlies, as long as they don't bring to many people into it. I just happened to respond after you posted. Pure coincidence.
