Yea I wasn't saying it was an absolute, but a trend that holds up enough that it would serve the purposes that people have been bitching about.  That they want a server they can have fun on with mostly the community and that they don't want to be exclusive.  If we keep #1 customs it will attract more serious gamers and community members are already attracted to it.  If we follow this up by policing #2 better will create the perfect community setup.  #2 to introduce us to new people, #1 to keep them interested and around (and having fun).

Affecting a tongue-in-cheek tone when typing is serious business. I was only messing cos I've been pretty vocal about preferring stocks.

Regarding the main point, I was more suggesting that, once #1 is all-custom, #2 could be a vanilla, stock-only server (possibly sans Granary). I really miss Badlands and Hydro. Plus I've only been on ctf_well once since the update and thought it was really nice but never gets played.

If anything, it would be sans ctf_well. I happen to like granary >Sad, it's at least better than ctf_well action-wise imho. And from what I've seen, Fastlane is just a Hydro-looking version of Granary in that whomever gets the middle point in pub play always wins.

Fastlane isn't even a real fucking custom, the only reason it got distributed was because some website commissioned its creation made a deal with valve.

Why can't we just do an all stocks server and an all customs server?
