Additional Info
If you're here to lurk on my profile after an online multiplayer game before deciding to block me, you're most likely mad and are unable to take responsibility for your poor performance. Instead of blaming your failures on other players, you should probably stop to think about who's really at fault.

I'm only keeping a few people on my friends list, so unless you're willing to interact with me every once in a while, don't send me any friend requests.

Base game is very fun to play either alone or with friends assuming you make a friends-only lobby. Unfortunately, Valve has decided to not fix any more of the security vulnerabilities for this game as of late as they consider DDoS attacks to be "out of scope". For this reason, you should expect to occasionally get DDoSed if you or another player happen to be on the list.

Additionally, hit registration on 30-tick servers are very inconsistent since pose parameters are not lag compensated[forums.alliedmods.net], and the default command variables are outdated for modern operating systems. Of course, this can be alleviated on single-player or local servers by installing the Admin System from the Steam Workshop and adding the following command variables to `cvars.txt` in `/Left 4 Dead 2/left4dead2/ems/admin system/`:

If you've bothered to scroll all the way down to view the comment section, then you're just wasting your time. Maybe instead of lurking on other players' profiles, you could actually be doing something productive instead (like playing the video games you currently have available).
