Hah, I remember your gamertag! I (gognog) would've been the 180 ping player on your team you wanted to kick, playing from NZ cause there weren't any servers here. Small world, those WC3 servers were the real deal.

Oh, I remember you (for your ping, not your gamertag lol).

For real, though. After years of playing CS the WC3 plugin revived the game for me. De aztec was amazing when you could teleport all around the map.

Your name seems familiar, and I distinctly remember one regular who would frequently rubber band around due to their ping.
