In an attempt to ridicule me, you have ridiculed yourself with a lack of basic reading skills. Now see, I won't make fun of you since you handicap yourself through a sheer reckless drive to humiliate others. It's understandable, because all humans have trouble dealing with emotions as they are so dominant over conscious action. It takes quite a lot of effort and practice to control useless emotions that only hurt others, but I'm sure that if you put your hate aside you would be able to live a much more satisfied existence while allowing others to live a satisfied existence at the same time.
Here's my explanation about the rates:
N0thing is at the top of his game, and I'm at the top of mine. They are both FPS games with their own unique physics and philosophy. Being at the top of a game implies having knowledge and skills that others don't have that are not at the same level as you. I think that I can teach others what they need to know to create their own path to the top.
Anywho, I don't think being reasonable was a productive idea since this will most likely be swept away by pride, however those of you who don't discard this, and put your emotions aside, perhaps this could help you along in your life.
Thanks for reading.

Woops you're right I misread it, he charges $32 where as he can offer proper insight and use his knowledge effectively whereas you would charge $2 less per hour for, lets see:
gun control in crossfire (lol'd)
gun spraying/tapping/bursting vs movement (I forgot it's INCREDIBLY hard for people to go into a TD room with a friend and spray into a wall and learn the patterns on their own and figure out how the movement in this game works on their own)
clutching (really?)
playing key spots (I'm pretty sure mykl could teach someone how to play key spots for free.)
I'm loving the holier than thou attitude, my pride nor my emotions have gotten the better of me. I made one mistake out of a countless amount of successes, my apologies. I don't have a reckless drive to humiliate others, I humiliate those who deserve it and bring it upon themselves. You need to come up with a more compelling argument because you're boring me to death with this load of garbage.
"because all humans have trouble dealing with emotions as they are so dominant over conscious action."
That isn't true at all, sociopaths and other common personality disorders have symptoms where the individual lacks basic emotions and feelings. Try again sir.
"It takes quite a lot of effort and practice to control useless emotions that only hurt others, but I'm sure that if you put your hate aside you would be able to live a much more satisfied existence while allowing others to live a satisfied existence at the same time."
That's a good one, except it really doesn't take effort to control emotions whether they are useful or not. I'm not showing any hate so I'm not sure why you're so quick to assume. Not really sure how my existence would be more satisfying if I wasn't so critical, I think it's fun pointing out flaws that other people miss.
In short, I appreciate the life altering message you conveyed through a post of sheer stupidity and assumptions. I'm sure everyone feels much more enlightened, your message will help them steer their life into a better direction. We all truly appreciate your advice Dr. Andrew Miloslavsky of 24.185.95.98.
Thanks for reading.

figure out how the movement in this game works on their own)
I know how to run faster than normal in-game, something that pretty much nobody else knows (save for the people I've told).
I know I'm being nit-picky as Mav never specified to what level he was going to "teach" the crap, but my point is that your argument is valid, but you need to specifically direct it at the price-to-information ratio. If you leave it adrift it's way too easy for someone to wreck it. -
It has come to my attention that 2 notorious robbers are roaming the citadel known as the crossfire community stealing money from the good, hard working players that make up this wonderful community. If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of sesame street character "BERT" and/or an individual that refuses to abide by the dictates of or resists adherence to a group.

Grand larceny is frowned upon and we live in a kingdom where capital punishment is enforceable. Thank you for your attention.
well this certainly made my day reading this.
dumb Aussie always makes me laugh.
on a serious note, good luck -

I mean you almost taught me to double jump once. -

I thought I made it clear that he's charging way too much for what he's willing to "teach". I can understand someone like you giving 'movement' lessons (movement in quotation marks as it is up for interpretation), but I'm fairly sure you don't charge people for it.
This isn't about my pride or my "reckless drive to humiliate others" as some nameless individual(s) would like to think, I just think the pricing is an outrage. I can understand 15oL giving sniping lessons as I'm sure he has a lot of insight but for $30 an hour even that's a stretch. -

Do you actually know what he's teaching? No. -

However looking at past history, lessons for cf tend to be on the pricey end; i mean just look at minty/malte. If there was more people giving lessons, then the prices would come down way faster. HT is well known in our version (even amongst the pubbers), so it is no surprise they can charge the rate they are charging.
That's what I was trying to say, there aren't people lining up for crossfire lessons and even then people won't be willing to pay "that" much. Unless I'm wrong, I'm fairly sure you did lessons for a cheap price (10k zp?) and you have much more knowledge and insight into the game. My issue isn't the super "expensive" price, it's the information to price ratio. -

I completely got what you were arguing, I just saw responses implying that other people didn't see that, and wanted to point it out.

Also, everyone should just keep in mind that "teaching" is not defined as giving someone knowledge. If I tell you that the spacebar makes you jump, and that you can curve jump by going W+D > Space > Turn screen 90 degrees right and W+A, that isn't even close to if I went in-game with you and trained you on how to jump correctly.
Teaching has a lot of different definitions.
(This also isn't an argument for either side, just something that needs to be considered.)
EDIT: Actually doop has a good point. You'd probably have more success posting in Barracks and/or Clan Discussion Mav.
