CS "Youth Academy" Launched

Posted by Ripper at 18:13 18/11/2002.

While thats not the official name, it gives an indication of whats about to go ahead. TeppuM and Keefe from the top UK clan erm:cs are looking for players aged 10-13 to offer training services to develop these youngsters into future CS stars. Much like football squads do infact, and this will probably bring out some good talent in the UK CS scene. I'm sure more info will be given once the project begins fully.

Check out #erm:cs on Quakenet if you're a budding CS star, or contact TeppuM or Keefe for more info.

Maybe what Tep and Keefe should do is teach them to have respect for others when they're on servers. Rather than mouth of like some....well 10 year old. ¬¬

Although, i don't see why people aged 10-13 should need to be trained. They should make their own development and get some where in the scene. Its more fun :P [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Damn straight Liq. Little kiddies with no respect for others and no idea in generaly about manners and their behaviour. I will give you a pizza at i15 Tep if this thing takes off and you can get the kids that attend to improve and also have a more professional and less peurile attitude towards others.

Good luck....there's extra toppings in it for you =D

Maybe thats what they r gonna teach em ? To be respectful to the comunity and fair play etc. Actaully maybe they should offer those services to 12 tp 30 yo cos the majority of ppl who play cs are complete w**kers and are in this age range...

rofl Tom, I can never find the hostage rescue point in dust2...I found the hostages but they seem unwilling to follow me and usually shoot me before I can go up and press use on them.

Talking of use, do I press use on doors and buttons on prodigy? Because I think my use button may be broken as it doesn't seem to work but works fine for everyone else.

Is it some sort of hack or skill level that I must get to open them or is there a secret?

By the time these 10 - 13 year olds have learned to play the game and respect ppl, counter-strike will probably be dead. Football is a more long-term "sport", thats why training ppl early is a good thing whereas with cs, i personally dont think it will last long enough. Good luck with the project anyway, maybe some scout leaders will wanna get involved and "help out" too.

Most of the CS community span from 12-18, which is what a football youth academy takes on. Also, how will u find out their ages? Im sure these 10-13 year olds mother's wouldnt be too impressed with their children giving out info over the net at such an early age :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
