Yeah, "teamscot" is my boyfriend and his buddies that play. I'm proud that they're all famous now...but at the same time I just...they're real asshats the way they're doing it. Even though it's funny asshatery to them (and me), it's not funny to those they're doing it to...but it's still funny. So yeah. I'm feeling some odd pride/distaste right now.

That is some next-level asshatery there. Nading yourself in the corner and walking into the fire. :roll:

Man I'd be so pissed off. I see threads all the time on the steam forums of people racking up seven day bans because they have the misfortune to be put on teams like this a few times.

I don't see anything to be proud of, honestly.

Perhaps pride is the wrong word. It's the novelty of it perhaps? Regardless, I do agree what they're doing is asshattery.

Jeroh, I'd love to see you 4v1 them, you'd kick their asses and I'd thoroughly enjoy it.

I think "infamous" is the appropriate word. I don't understand the humor at all, particularly when their actions are to the detriment of an innocent person who is then penalized. They should receive perma-bans from MM.

Definitely agree with the infamous. My English is inadequate =(

They used to troll teammates rather than get them banned, which I found more amusing. I've stopped playing with them since they started getting teammates banned though. I used to admonish them when they took it too far in the past, but it always slid off their shoulders.

That all being said, I still see the humor in this, but it's a mean humor so I don't condone or participate.

It was a random guy they did it to.

Yeah, that's why it's humorous. If there was no consequences for their actions against him (like if it was in a pub server and it was just for one round and they were all buddies) it'd be pretty hilarious as long as it wasn't done every single time to the guy. But since it has consequences (him getting kicked/banned) and they don't know him, it's an asshat move. Mean humor.
