EDIT IV/ and maybe skilled ATDM clans like and [HK] could open up spots for trainees... (instead of turning them down for 'being not skilled enough')
[HK] had an apprenticeship program open just for these purposes but immature idiots saw fit to join the clan then leave just so they could say they were in [HK] once. So no, underskilled players have lost that privilege.
I, however, will still personally offer help to players. And plenty have asked and received.

[3] had a program known as [g3] which taught people how to aug. Also, what trap Skil? If anyone asks me for help, providing they speak english, will get it.
Also Ion Storm put augs in MP because augmentations is one of many things that made Deus Ex such a big hit. It is one of the defining factors of DX.

What you just said is a complete lie. If I get asked for help, I always offer it by first asking for people's real in game alias, if they are playing aliased. Then I ask them for MSN or point them to [

For once I tend to agree with sike on this one.

@SPAZ: I was going to say "period" instead of full stop, then thought better of it due to your talent of unerringly picking up on things like that.
@SIKE: You think AltFire is homosexual huh? What, may I ask first, do you have against homosexuals? Second: If you moved fast enough, and erratically enough, you would stand much less chance of getting hit. If you looked around you more while playing, took advantage of your explosive alternate fire modes, you wouldn't get blown up so much. AltFire is only different in respects to ATDM with it's weps and the low gravity. Augs would be useless in Wunderland because the weapons are so powerful.
If you think AltFire is crap, go tell ShadowRunner, or Nobody, I'm sure they'll be glad to tell you your opinion is noted, and also where to stuff it. :-P
I'd also be glad to help you out in AltFire, and to give you a match, of course.
@EVERYONE ELSE WHO'S LOOKING FOR A BITCH-FEST BETWEEN ME AND SIKE FOR WHAT HE SAID: Tough luck. I vented all my anger out on ~F[E]AR~ this evening....

OD is too good for B, Scarface too, a handful of atdm players give it a bad name...
EDH beat B in btdm apparently, according to that incredibly truthful [A] forums.
Skilgannon, let me translate...
Learn augs, get some level of skill at it, and you will gain respect from all, not just custom fans or 0-auggers. There is a code of honour which doesnt seem to exist in atdm, that doesnt mean atdm is dishonourable, just they view it as a pro game and therefore tk and sk doesnt exist. I can understand this. As for noobs streaking off lame kills and then taunting you about their skills and ownage, just ignore it, most will leave when owned on a custom server and that is all you have to remember.
I reccomend auggin for improving your general DX skills.
And augging is pretty essential to SG.

I just can't get on with it. I can't go 2 steps without some bugger sticking a lit rocket up my arse. Trying to fight with my aug keys gets on my nerves, and all binds I set seem to lag by seconds. I get bored with it very quickly to summarize. That was how it was when I started, probably how it will always be. That and my aim is absolutely metabolic end product.
