I think I started playing back in 99, oh the horror....

My fav version of the first cs was before it went retail. I actually switched over to source very early after, I missed 1.6 if that was any good.

Not sure I went on this server then, guess not

I was reading something on FB about Counter Strike yesterday , something to do with banning 11000 players/names for cheating ?

Theres a massive hacking economy in csgo now. Ranking really brings out the trolls. Ironically the change to netcode to take less bias away from lowest ping advantage is allowing a lot of Russian players to deliberately play on the wrong servers. The older CS I remember was quite local due to the ping being important and each server had admin on it to keep out the worst elements, there is very little oversight now

I pretty much lived on Jolt 7, sometimes i would be on for 12 hour sessions.

Beta 0.52 ftw...

Jase died about 8 years ago in a bike accident, there was a thread on here about it...

GSV started when a load of the reg's on the OcUK CS servers got together, fun times...

I was about to post some sort of CS reunion server message after all the LAN pics that've started appearing on FB in the last few days, seem's someone's necro'd this thread instead...

Hi-Lan circa 2003 I think?

Yes that's a 14 or possibly 15" CRT, the struggle was real my friends

Also got the whole i18 album for some reason even though I don't think I was actually there, some classic WillGill

And the only video I have

WTF, is that a girl at a LAN party?! .0?

Sp00n · 16 Sep 2016 at 22:59

That's A[L]C and his Mrs, she was there for moral support

I think I ate my own body weight in sweet & sour pot noodles that weekend.

And lol at choosing to be skinhead back then. I don't get the choice now :/ Still got that jumper though :E

Was that the weekend that guy from six kittens was there and absolutely raped all of us? His final score in each CS match was something daft like 50-0 every god damn time.

Dj_Jestar · 17 Sep 2016 at 00:16

All of our videos are poor compared to these guys:

Trig · 17 Sep 2016 at 00:45

Hahah, I have that one as well but didnt upload it as its just some internet wannabee's...

Played from almost the first Beta, Docks was one of the best maps and also Iraq. Moved onto BF2 and then didn't play it after that
