People who play on public servers only I assume

Derivative term for people who play public servers. A general mindset that people who play public servers are general idiots IE "Pubbies" Pubfags" "Pubstars" etc. It's also used to ward off newcomers to a server, because god forbid letting others play! Also let's the competitive crowd feel different. :mmmsmug:
Well, I guess I am a pubfag.
It's someone who plays on a public server and has clan tags, 4chan's server sucks ass

So this means most people who play on public servers are pubfags...
I don't see any point in calling someone a pubfag for playing public TF2. I thought that was just directed at L4D.
it's really just people who do things like OMG IT MOVES SHOOT IT, or those dumb fucks who KILL THE DAMN TELEPORTER IN OUR BASE EVEN THOUGH I'M A SPY STANDING BEHIND IT WITH MY KNIFE OUT FFFFFFFFF
OP is newcomer.

It's what people who hate comp think comp players call them behind their backs.

It's been accurate so far.

If it moves then shoot it and yeah camping teles is kinda gay so I usually blow up exits than some wanker spy is camping. Theres really no such thing as a pubfag. Its just some stupid term competitive players came up with that basically says "you don't play this game competitively so you suck at it". Its tf2 for gods sake, who honestly gives a shit
I guess I'm a pubfag sorry
Why would you want to play on a server that you [I]know [/I]has 4chan users on it? I try to avoid it like the plague

Basically a derogative term for people to sound cool and hang on that specific server alot.
Something geeky s00pir 1337 pr0z say to get their tiny dick hardened.
I'm a pubfag because (shock), I actually have a life and don't sit at home all day playing TF2! Unfortunately, that puts me at a disadvantage becuase I only have about ten of those unlockable weapons and items. :sigh:

I'm a pubbie as well then. I also have few items, but I play for fun, not in all seriousness. I don't give a shit if I win, I care if somebody's griefing or not. Games are for fun, not to think you're the best player ever. Why I make a good admin as well. I don't care about teams and shit, it's just wether I can have a fun time playing the game I bought.

Whether you bought the game just to screw around with friends or you did it in some sort of attempt to be good at it, you're still no better than anyone else who plays just because you have a different style. Neither way of playing is superior. Just because someone's playing to get better and are involved in a skill-based community doesn't mean they're not playing "for fun". If they weren't having fun they wouldn't be playing, and if the people that don't have fun don't last long in skill-based communities. No one likes people who whine and rage quit.

Pubfag is an old term for shitty, annoying players. Nowadays they're simply called "casuals" MOTHERFUCKING CASSSSUAAAAALS

The opposite of a clanfag.

It's not even helpful to your team at all.
