Can't decide which approach to use here, good ol' ignore or poke fun how obvious troll is obvious, also postcount.

I decided to go with the quick dismissal approach as you saw.
i thought this was a tf2 topic which everyone could post their ideas about the game so i don't like it,can't i comment ? when i post a negative comment about the game i become a troll ? it wasn't like i insulted people who play tf2,i'm just sorry that i didn't do that, probably will edit later to deserve the responses.
seems like accusing me with trollin&postcount and whining about it with several posts there makes you postcounters and trolls.

I actually still play the game (tf2) and try to enjoy it but it bores the hell outa me. You guys actually check out the post counts and judge people with the numbers? also i wouldn't think of posting on forums as "investing to community" especially in an offtopic subforum I didn't insinuate tfc was the same as tf2.I just said even some old tfc hardcore players like tf2.But i can't,and i'm not a tfc fan.But i used to enjoy that game.
I didn't realize this was about the update thingie,so my post could be offtopic -sorry for that-. Well guess what,i even hate the updates more,still boring gameplay.
That's just me,and i'm not the type of person that writes novels on forums about video games.And trying to back up my statements would result in that.
{ "Checking post counts" eew it's 2 oh oh ow post something umm say that he's a troll,and type some weird stuff in that,quote some from that and oh oh this will raise my postcounts so say that he's postcounting and stuff so accusing him would make you look cool n ally up with others and start attacking him,there you go, you look so cool now with your thousands of postcounts,you make me wet.You are awesomesauce. Here you are; <img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/7/7491311_905b60e6cb.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
You, my friend, have gone up against <a href="http://redwing.hutman.net/%7Emreed/warriorshtm/royals.htm" target="_blank">royalty.</a> While it is true that postcount or signup date don't mean anything and any of us will acknowledge that, the fact of the matter is that we are lying. Through. Our. ######ing. TEETH.
You're the new guy here, that can't be denied, and you can't expect us not to take notice and take that into account when we form our opinion about you. Postcount or signup date, all humbug. We don't know you. Hi, I'm lolfighter. Indifferent to make your acquaintance.
I'll allow myself to paraphrase your original post as "man, TF2 sucks balls." I'll grant that your post posessed a little more substance than that, but I also allow myself to claim that this is the general gist. This may be a valid standpoint, but it is also a vague yet controversial one. You are clearly in disagreement with the majority, and while this may or may not concern you, you seem to be at least sufficiently invested in your opinion to defend it.
This is good, passion certainly lends you credibility. However, within the context of debate I take issue with your means of argument. Certainly you have been attacked personally, and I can therefore understand that you would lash out in likewise manner, but this is bringing us nowhere. If you would stick to your claims that TF2 is not living up to its potential, I would prefer that you elaborate on this, rather than on how certain other forum posters might resemble bespectacled digits in their outward appearance (metaphorically or otherwise). While I like TF2, I too am beginning to be a little bored by it, and thus would be interested in exchanging views on that topic. On the other hand, you are not, as you say, in the habit of writing "novels on forums about video games," so it might be better if we just abandoned this debate entirely (including the ad hominem attacks). That is up to you.
At any rate, you are STILL the only person I've heard describe TF2 as "cute."
I accept that i was a bit aggressive in my first post,but against what? Certainly not the people who likes the game. I was just disappointed in the game and made an agressive statement about the game.That's all. Therefore i am very upset about getting marked as a forum troll.Those guys could just say "sucks for you,we all like it" instead of the postcount and troll stuff. Or "cool go away" approach could work too,if you ever left it there.
If you have ever lived in a flat or dorm, you may have run into the late night noise issue. You may have run into it so hard that you have seen yourself forced to take action. So you go knock on the door and some dude smelling of cheap beer yanks it open and yells "HUH?!" at you. You have just entered a lose/lose situation. If you bring forth your errand he's likely to not be happy about it, but promise to turn down the music and tell people to be quiet. He'll turn down the music until someone else turns it up two minutes later. He'll not tell people to be quiet, or he'll do it in a sarcastic tone and everyone will have a good laugh at your expense. You leave, realizing the futility of your errand.

I think this little drama subplot has gone far enough.
So, how 'bout those new maps eh? What's the general opinion? Turbine has those vents upstairs that makes getting the OMGWTFBBQ achievement much easier. I'm not a huge fan of that raised platform just outside the int room upon which engies can build turrets with impunity from spies. I don't think map geometry should influence the game <b>that</b> much.

I don't really like any of them but fastlane is just slightly worse then badlands. Without a superior team you get a suddendeath because the loosing team WILL go on the defensive and go back and forth from the last 2 cps for way too long. Turbine just seems uninspired to me, everything is indoors and each class mostly hangs in their favoured part of the map. Engineers keeps everyone from reaching int without a organized team and if you use that the others will just take the int behind your back, or permanently sit and guard chokepoints.
Therefore I see goldrush as a superior map, even if blu sucks it still ends within a reasonable timespan. Only thing I miss is that spies cant sneak around and cap the point quickly if the other team is on the far offensive.
Turbine is an insipid turdfest that vies with 2fort for the dubious honour of "most ######ty TF2 map." In fact, I'd say it has managed to wrest that title away from 2fort, which until now has so richly deserved it.
