That's right, bots are killing ET
I don't really see why people keep hosting empty servers full of bots playing against each other for eternity. It's just a plain waste of money... 99% of the servers from the global master list belong to that category and it's one of the reason why the game is dying.
I mean, even if you set up the filters correctly to remove the empty servers from the list, you still have all these annoying "bot-filled" servers remaining. And you have to search like 30 min to find a decent server with real players... Most new players don't know about websites like "splatterladder" and such so they are forced to use this old and unefficient global server list and it's one of the reason they leave the game directly instead of giving it a chance.
If new players could find a decent jaymod pub instantly thru the list without having to search for ages, they would pracc there for a bit, then discover ETPro and this website and it would give the competitive scene a boost.
Make ET more noob-friendly instead of the usual "ET IS DEATH" bullshit

But still the skill level isn't that high among jaymod servers and I think new players could handle it and discover this awesome feeling that has kept us playing this game for years eventho it was kinda dead. Once they discover that feeling they'll never go back to shitty COD games believe me
Even I, as an experienced player, got bored really quickly. I can't imagine what newcomers would do...
I met some ppl that were newcomers to jaymod servers, and when i asked them, if they like bots, they didnt even knew about it, they thought it was normal players. Prob is that there are to many server spreaded around and not enough ppl to fill em up.
There should be fewer servers/communities with a bigger ammount of regulars players on each of them. And all the unncecessary empty bot filled crap shits servers should be removed. It would facilitate new players from trying this game (if there still are any)
