I know, I know. Another Metafilter post.
I can’t help it. This is the single most awesome community on the internet.
MeFight Club is a group of Metafilter users who get together and play my favorite FPS, Team Fortress 2, on a private server that only Metafilter members have access to.
While TF2 is a great game, it is an online team game, and therefore your enjoyment depends on the people who you are playing with. The public servers tend have problems: hypercompetitive jerks, people intentionally being stupid, hackers/exploiters, and revolting images sprayed onto the walls.
But a good private server, like MeFight Club, tends towards maximum fun. All of the people on the server are mature adults who want everyone to have a good time. Everyone is nice.
There’s a lot of variation in skill level, from newbies to (comparative) experts, but usually there are enough players on each side to keep the games balanced and fun for everyone.
You’ll need the password to play with us and to visit the site; you can find it in herrdoctor’s Metafilter profile if you’re a member of the community. And if you’re not a member, you should be!
