Fist thing first - lobpot enthusiasts predominantly are not forum participants and those who dwell in forums, from looks of it, are amusing themselves by making up problems where is none and lobbing around it with pseudopolitics :) (what? my honest lurker's opinion...)

For all places i've been in, scarce as they might be, i must point out one tendency - there is always equivalent of what locally called "pot" in some shape or form. ut2k4, part of the "ultimate hardcore shooter" series that i obsessively played for some years, while offering some competitive gametypes, most popular servers were teamgames including vehicular 16vs16 clusters-something, most of which are spam, camping, trashtalk/cheating accusations dramas or attempts to gathers votes to kick some trolls.

In fact it was hard to find players for classic 1v1, by far not everyone will find a joy in tryhard-ing, counting 55/25 sec for items and zoning out that shock rifle. Admins of our server (took me years to appreciate their work...) were saying it is fun for everyone ( and i concur here) - every person can find application for that one thing they like to do, be it raw aim skills, map navigation, tactical moves or camping and chatting.

And here some possible answers to question "Why do you find such big games appealing" : less tryhard/less waiting time/easier for balance (ut had no balancing system whatsoever).

I'd argue same true for a FAF: here are gap-and-likes/thermo/a-crater and semi-clusters like wonder, and i will avoid commenting much here, but i would consider those valid equivalents of local "pot". Also i've encountered an idea there somewhere i can only agree with, something like - playerbase is like a pyramid, you have a base where is majority, upper more competetive players and pros at the top, top ones are coming from lower tier so firs of all you have to support very bottom.

I
personally
would
rather
join
big
grey
mass,
because
otherwise
i
feel
like
i
getting
into
someone's
party
i've
never
been
invited
in
a
first
place.
Apparently
most
will
do.
Ofc
you
can
do
everything
in
interest
for
the
elitists,
ban
n00bz,
ban
maps,
ban
all
those
thing
*I*
consider
bad,
but
there
are
examples
of
where
this
path
will
lead.
UT
was
full
of
elitists,
some
are
even
explicitly
proclaim
"i
am
an
elitist
and
proud
of
it"
but
you
can
see
what
state
UT
now
in:
dead,
dusted
and
forgotten
and
latest
establishment
of
the
series
is
in
longest
pre-alpha
season
ever.
Besides
folks
probably
will
join
games
they
want,
and
play
how
they
want
regardles
of
how
many
times
local
elite
population
will
call
them
lazy
scared
noobs
or
throw
any
other
eclectic
slanderous
barrages.
Most
will
rightfully
answer
to
that
"shut
up
and
let
me
enjoy
a
game".
None
have
to
put
up
with
this,
there
are
other
many
places
to
be
in,
things
to
do,
and
other
methods
to
convert
your
free
time
into
"fun"
and,
who
knows,
even
with
better
efficiency
rate.
