in the game I'm currently playing:
20:00-07:00 generally only good players
07:00-18:00 mostly just complete utter mouthbreathing trash
18:00-19:59 sometimes good sometimes trash
on weekends it's just mouthbreathers playing.

>NEET hours
>generally only good players
no, thats when you find jew*****cock cockroach gamers (>>P59076)
like in a BR pub some faggot who plays with the same 4 man every game and holds each others dicks, getting a whopping 5 kills per game but muh wins
its almost as if NEETs who are too afraid to engage in real life are also too afraid to engage in games

is dis the next school shooting?

[reposts this from zzzz because cant be bothered to figure out what is being wordfiltered]
>bro prefire
what does this mean?
ive been seeing them say it since 2006, not even exaggerating
is this an accusation of cheating?
is it an accusation that the player is shit and just shot at a corner hoping the enemy would come around?

it means when u go round a corner and get shot faster than u can react so theyre cheating by firing without knowing an enemi is there

what is head glitching and how can the same glitch be in every single game ever made?

<bro what u up to
>bro im grindin only 40 more levels until i unlock [obfuscated, convoluted, phrase for a skin]
wh*te pople.
