How to deal with "pros"
"Pros" will say stuff like, "OMFG U SUCK! ME KICK U RITE NAO!"


Methods
1- Bring friends

If the "pro" tries to kick you, your friends can say no and kick him/her instead.
Epic fail 4 u mistah pro.

2- If he/she calls you a noob or says you suck, own him/her with the best comeback, "At least I have a life."

3- Treat him/her like a pro then.

Don't give him/her meds, pills, assist, etc. Altough, this IS trolling, but he/she deserves it. If they think they can do it without you or the team, don't assist them in their survival

4- Leave

Leave if all methods fail. I personally hate pros who act all tough just because they finally found underwear that fits them. Just leave and forget about it.

How to deal with speedrunners
I hate speedrunners. I want a game that has everyone working as a team! But nooo, someone rushes off and gets to the saferoom less than 10 seconds and has the nerve to alarm the car so you can fight a horde. Heres how to stop them.

Methods:

1- Bring friends
Kick him/her as a team.

2- Ask them to slow down
Say it nicely

3- Keep up
If you can't beat em, join em.

4- Leave
SImply put.

It kills nerves that you think " just having fun " isn't okay.

I once made the mistake of saying that I had a life (as an excuse to why I didn't play all the time). I offended the entire community with that one. Life must be exclusive: If I have one, no one else can! Don't you just love destroying the rules of logic?

@jiffypillow. Don't let your friends get you down. Kindly talk to them about the benefits of rushing. And play some Advanced or Expert games going at a fast pace. You might be surprised at how many less hordes & special infected there are, since everything about the infected is based on timers in this game. And you will see less damage taken since there will be less infected spawning.

Teamkilling is always a final option.

I feel so bad now, my friends keep refering to me as a Speed Runner and I didn't even realize what they meant.
