I was very similar, Usually bottom of the team but then found when I go and play solo and am not matched against my own level or play DM/Arms Race I perform incredibly well.
Fastest way to improve/get better is to play with those who are better than you and give you solid advice, against those who are better than you and to just practice.

I do keep inviting you, whilst you ignore me and spend 3 hours on casual
You did well considering the lowest rank there was 4 above you! You had a few good frags and even got a clutch or two
Had an interesting D2 game last night (God awful map) - First half was very 50/50, but then we managed 9 straight T rounds to win the match - I know D2 is slightly T sided but I didn't think it was that bad!

This. Absolutely NO idea why people are still using ESEA after this policy. If STEAM did this to improve VAC, people would go ape **** and force them to change it. I have no idea why people would allow them to take constant readings about your PC. What, will they take my browsing history and check if I'm searching for cheats?
Giving them more power is not the way to combat cheaters. Soon we will need to run ESEA OS to play ESEA. Bloody stupid.

thanks, it was a good match, enjoyed it and had a close few rounds.
I shall be on earlier tonight if you need a space filling let me know

I should be on tonight if the internet works, ever since I swapped to a superhub 2 I keep losing connection
I've not had any issues with my super hub 2 which I have had for awhile now.
I did have a check to see if you was on yesterday but didn't see you on.

I am really going to have to add a few more people on here and get some games going

I was playing with an unranked friend who is new to the game and it didnt seem fair to ditch him. Plus when people are inviting me it seems they have a pretty full premade to start with and usually i'm wanting to play with 2-3 friends before hand.
Eg last night Swaggy and Sabre invited me, my friend sarge and Frog but Swaggy and Sabre had a 3 man already and us 3 wanted to play together so the figures were a no go as we were 1 man too many.

I'm usually around and happy to play, I'm mg2 on my main and my smurf and I'm always happy to play with others, although solo queing seems to have been less irritating recently it's still better to play with at least a couple of people who aren't complete plums who call gg and give up if you loose the pistol.
Spudwave is my main account.
On the subject, what happened to soundwave, haven't seen him in ages?

P.S. The following links are posts to reddit which contain some information about the new ESEA monitoring thing, and some information on how to remove all the files if requested. A number of comments on the website contain words which are not allowed on this forum.

If you get easily offended by offensive English words, then don't open the spoiler and following links. If the mods feel these links violate the rules, feel free to delete the link(s)
Yeah think im gonna uninstall ESEA now!
Shame
Edit, Done, think it removed everything by just uninstalling it, can't seem to find other traces of it.
Don't know how to use CMD prompt very well though so didn't know how to search my E drive using it (where esea was installed) Any help with that?
Time to try Faceit again I think.
Faceit username BanksyIV add me if any other users are on here

Happy to still have ESEA on my PC when it means I'm not playing vs Dualie wielding spin botters in pistols rounds (even tho I actually rekt him in pistol lel, dat prefire). It was the 2nd round that was the issue with Mp7 spinbot

See this is what I was thinking, gonna try faceit premium though, think its £2.99 a month, will see what that's like.
Its just the way ESEA didn't even announce it, its just says updating and that's it, no notice about changes in privacy or any mention of it running 24/7
just don't like how sneaky they have been with it and how they are avoiding answering questions.

It's ESEA, they view it as like it or lump it. I respect that 
FACEIT :S

I'm usually around if people need a spare. My ping isn't great but I can still hold my own with a p90 despite the 400 ping (raider can back this up). Gunna try wireless when I get back (away this week) and see if that makes any difference. Using homeplugs on dodgy wiring and with dodgy internet.

I'm more familiar using UNIX cmd, but I believe on windows navigating to the E: drive is simply
'E:' or 'E:\' or 'cd E:' or 'cd E:\' (in order of most probable).
You only get blantant hackers once in a while. I'd say I only ever met 10 BLATANT hackers in my 1100 hours. Obviously you get many less blatant ones, but you very rarely get spinbotters and aimbotters. It's normally a lot of wall hack and radar hack.Happy to still have ESEA on my PC when it means I'm not playing vs Dualie wielding spin botters in pistols rounds (even tho I actually rekt him in pistol lel, dat prefire).

They still operate just like they're a monopoly. They probably know they have the cutting edge when it comes to cheat detection (and they probably always will) but anybody with a bit of sense knows that it is EXTREMELY risky to trust such personal information (NOBODY knows exactly what they are taking from your PC, and ultimately, what they are using it for) just so you can play a game. Honestly, I'd rather quite cs completely than take these risks. Also, the attitude some senior staff have is nothing to be proud of.
OBVIOUSLY, opinions and all that. So feel free to keep playing ESEA and whatever.
If people REALLY wanna play ESEA and remain safe, try and set up a VM (but this will be computationally expensive) or dual boot your system, and have the 'new' system run CS only. I know this sounds OTT, but it only takes one mistake to lose a bunch stuff that ultimately is more important than a game.
Doh! cheers Nik, couldn't find any traces of esea that way either so looks like the uninstall worked as it should.
