I play quite a lot of CSGO but I'm getting quite sick of VM routing to the match making servers. The past month the connection time has been increasing and sometimes iratic but with no packet loss.

Last night over 2 matches my ping was 100+, came across another VM user on the same server with the same problem as well.

I remember the days of 30-40ms pings on these servers.

use the MM server picker to choose the close server, might help. might not.

finally getting back up the ranks. on a 11 win (non lose streak, 10W 1D 0L)

Quite enjoying this. I'm very out of touch though.

At Silver Elite Master or something like that. Quite new to this so got a while to go.

The thing that ruins this game for me are the trolls. Played competitive last night and had some idiot keep killing me. grrr

On the postive side I won a gun worth a couple sterling.

Thats griefing lifelong which you can report, gives a 30 day ban. Also your motivation to rank up a bit

Put yourself on the above list

Created a smurf so I can play with some of the lower ranks on here, feel free you add me if you want some MM games.

Is there a trusted/reliable place to sell skins? I've got an M4A4 Howl and Fire Serpent I'd like to sell for cash, rather than to the Steam market, so I can buy a new GPU.

skinsexchange.com ive read is good (ive never tried it myself though)

you dont get money straight away, you put it on their market, when someone buys it then you get the cash. you trade your items to the website though.

plenty of people on reddit seem to have used it.

I had this issue last night on Plusnet, was a waste of time me playing as trying to AWP with a 130 ping was impossible!

My goal was not to come bottom of my team, I came 3rd/5th so I was happy with that

Accepted - I'm still within my first 10 games on my smurf and it's put me on a cool down to calculate my level.

Just don't win too many before you get ranked

I'm on another cool-down now before my final two wins. I've only lost one and the last two games were against Eagle/LEM. Will be interesting to see where I come out!
