Recently we had "Team only view" enabled on the CSS server to prevent some ghosters from having an advantage.
What i would like this thread to establish is if you think locked team view is a good or bad thing.
My personal pros: - Stops ghosting - encourages players to watch what their team is doing
My personal cons: - Can miss some action - Cant noclip around the map when dead
So, please reply with what you think about having locked team view on the public CSS server.
Please end your post with a "Turned On" or "Turned Off" so they can be counted.

I like it when you cant see the other team means that you get to keep hidey holes a lot than when you can i.e. "Oh he was there was he right ill spray there next time"
in mixes that ive been playing recently and i think it will be the same for matches they have it this way and it made it more fun.
Turned On

Turn it off.
It's a public server. If you want to prctice matches play mixes.
It's a public server. Run around like a lunatic and stop making it so fucking boring for those who are dead already!

It's not good if you want to spec someone as an admin.
Plus I agree with the point above - it's a good way to learn new tricks (something I could do with a lot of help with!)
Turn it off
oooo look at the size of my head!

tis possible to toggle on and off...
The main point about having it turned off tho is any random clan can hop on our server and start ghosting (this is why it was turned on for a short time recently)
keep your opinions coming
