ok let me elaborate myself, the online scene in general has nothing unique to offer, it takes alot of impress me, and to keep me engaged for a long period of time, nothing out there right now does that for me, and i speak for many, but from experience games like CS etc altho have a large following, do not possess the qualitys to provide me with the aformentioned. iam not the kind of person that relys on statistics or the majority to say that a game isnt dead or is playable?, who are these gamers that say so? the matrix game was one of the biggest selling games of 2003 selling over 1 million copies in its first week.

countless of mods are appearing, all with thier dev teams, communitys and your fancy downloadable wallpapers, doesnt mean the games alive, games alive when its still playable, thats what it gets down to right? enjoying the game because its entire architecture is robust and executed to provide the best gameplay.

The problem isn't that he isn't posting. The problem is that we just can't see him (them) via normal means.
Apparently admins with Flayra visibility have mega forum invis-o-h4x. You can't see them in the Members list for starters....try running a search for MonsE and I'll assure you he isn't there.
But on-topic....maybe I'll agree with MonsE. Mostly because he hangs out mostly here in OT XD

You must have lost your mind, CS is STILL the biggest multiplayer game in existance right now, not even slightly close to dead.
