• Furries have possessed my PC, no matter what server I join, I end up on "The Furry Pound"

No, seriously you guys, you've got to help me, this is getting scary. :ohdear: It all began yesterday. I felt like reinstalling TF2 after six months of abstinence. Everything was fine at first, except for one thing, the textures had a quite low resolution, even though my textures were set to "Very High". [img]http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/131/52172790.png[/img] [img]http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/766/33877459.png[/img] [img]http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/4632/53443153.png[/img] But I shrugged it off and blamed the 10.10 Catalyst drivers. After an hour or two I decided that it was time for me to make some dinner. I shut down TF2 and made a delicious pasta soup. Anyway, after about an hour, I feel it's time to return to TF2. I join my only server in the "Favourites" tab, waits for it connect, only to be greeted by this: [URL=http://img560.imageshack.us/i/hl22010111319045301.png/][IMG]http://img560.imageshack.us/img560/79/hl22010111319045301.png[/IMG][/URL] Needless to say, my reaction to this, pretty much were this: [img]http://gyazo.com/b5267861727fa328fd8a21ac17ba820d.png[/img] Quietly, I just sit there. Staring at the screen. "Why the... How the..". Truly I couldn't possibly have a furry server as a favourite. Distressed, I disconnect, and carefully checks the server name. Nope. It was the same old server I played on half a year ago. I rejoin, only to be greeted by the same screen. "Welcome to the Furry Pound!" I turn my head to look at the Cooler Master Elite 430 case. It was almost as if it were laughing at me. I try to think straight "M.. Maybe the server's just gotten hacked or something... Yeah! That must be it!" I quickly join another server at random. Just hoping that I'll arrive at a norma... "Welcome to The Furry Pound!". I feel the world fall apart around me. As I sit there, once again just staring at the screen, I start hearing faint whispers saying things like "Join us..." "Become one of us.."* I loudly yell out "NOO!" and begins mashing ALT and F4. "Clearly someone on my favourite server has pulled my leg, and has made me download some kind of redirecting script somehow". I decided that this was the most logical hypothesis yet, and so I reinstall TF2. An hour later, the download was complete. I fired it up, praying for it to be normal again. This time, I didn't join the server in my favourites, in fear of it being the source of the problem, so instead I join a random server, and... "Welcome to *insertservernamehere*" Extremely relieved, I begin singing "Celebrate good times" . But I quickly cease doing so. The textures were still fugly looking. I restarted TF2 several times, to make sure the server related problem didn't return. It didn't. However, after the 12th start up this evening, it did, and that's why I turn to you fine people. Please FacePunch, tell me what to do! * Clearly an overexaggeration [quote= Smallfry] You were just seeing the cached MOTD. [/quote] I am connecting to it. I'm playing on it. I can see my name on their server tracker. Oh, and another thing, how the fuck do you explain it occuring in the first place if it's just a cached MOTD? :downs:
Watch out, they're coming for you next! Other than that, I remember having this problem where I'd get random servers on my favorites list that I never even heard of before. My thought is that its somehow related to your Friends List. *shrugs*
Furry Pound is funny server. I pound those furries to death everytime I join the server. It's really fun when actually killing other people is the main reason of playing the game.
Oh wow, you had the server in favorites or something?Also if it doesn't get fixed the only option is :suicide:.
I didn't see anything wrong with those textures??? :raise:
Why would you go to the furry pound in the first place? Oh wait, you never said you did. Derp.
:downs: You were just seeing the cached MOTD.
get used to it it'll be fun trust me
Hey tomorrow, let's have an FPer's night out. Join the furry server, go pyro, Whenever we kill an obvious furry, say "TO THE KENNEL WITH YE, SCUM!"
Disable sprays, Disable MOTD.

[QUOTE=RixxzIV;26035441]No. That's the thing. I've never been to a furry server, it's just that every server I join, redirects me there.[/QUOTE] No, they don't. You aren't actually connecting to the furry pound, you're seeing its MOTD that's been cached from viewing it once. Stop whining.
[QUOTE=smallfry;26035461]No, they don't. You aren't actually connecting to the furry pound, you're seeing its MOTD that's been cached from viewing it once.

[QUOTE=smallfry;26035385]:downs: You were just seeing the cached MOTD.[/QUOTE] No he wasn't. When I clicked "View server info" on his name it said "The Furry Pound #3."

[QUOTE=UnarmedSniper;26035424]Hey tomorrow, let's have an FPer's night out. Join the furry server, go pyro, Whenever we kill an obvious furry, say "TO THE KENNEL WITH YE, SCUM!"[/QUOTE] Won't be easy. Each server has their own set of pro players.
[QUOTE=MarioInATopHat;26035414]get used to it it'll be fun trust me[/QUOTE] [b]No[/b] Does anyone have any logical explanations to my problems?
[QUOTE=RixxzIV;26036714][b]No[/b] Does anyone have any logical explanations to this?[/QUOTE] Because the furry pound servers are actually good servers with good teammates and players? man if you flip out over furries doing nothing to you but playing a fucking game, you're a horrible person
[QUOTE=MarioInATopHat;26037099]Because the furry pound servers are actually good servers with good teammates and players? man if you flip out over furries doing nothing to you but playing a fucking game, you're a horrible person[/QUOTE] Well, if I disable sprays I'll be able to play on it. [editline]13th November 2010[/editline] It'll still feel weird as hell, though.
[QUOTE=MarioInATopHat;26037099]Because the furry pound servers are actually good servers with good teammates and players? man if you flip out over furries doing nothing to you but playing a fucking game, you're a horrible person[/QUOTE] Because everyone wants to be stuck going to the same exact server every fucking day forever don't they? :downs: Probably every furry in there is probably an annoying dumbass who wants to show everyone his naked fursona sucking 5 dicks by spraying it everywhere. (An over exaggeration, but you get the point.)
[QUOTE=killz2much;26037185]Because everyone wants to be stuck going to the same exact server every fucking day forever don't they? :downs: Probably ever furry in there is probably an annoying dumbass who wants to show everyone his naked fursona sucking 5 dicks by spraying it everywhere.[/QUOTE] Also this

[QUOTE=MarioInATopHat;26037099]Because the furry pound servers are actually good servers with good teammates and players? man if you flip out over furries doing nothing to you but playing a fucking game, you're a horrible person[/QUOTE] Or maybe he just wants the ability to play on more than one server? Don't be retarded.
[QUOTE=KarmaPolice;26037213]Or maybe he just wants the ability to play on more than one server? Don't be retarded.[/QUOTE] I know that, I was regarding the furry pound server, not the issue itself.
They simply want you to be one of them. Resistance is futile.
This shit happens to me too, except with some wantedgov.it server. Deleting the cfg folder fixes it for some reason, even though I couldn't find the IP inside. No idea about the textures, turn off Steam Cloud and delete TF2 folder.
Kill yourself. It's the furry apocalypse.
It's like a zombie invasion :O
[QUOTE=AlphaGunman;26035370]I didn't see anything wrong with those textures??? :raise:[/QUOTE] They're looking like the textures you get if you have the textures set to "low", however I've got it set to "Very High".
