To be honest, I care too. I'm not a good player or anything like that, but I won't lie and say I don't care about the HLstats. I check those stats (The new one heh) after pretty much every game.
I don't get involved in pre-game mayhem, because I have this stupid thing where I don't like to kill team mates. I can avoid that, however the admin player slaying is something that can't be avoided. I understand that people find it fun and I don't want to stop anyone form doing that. I think we just need to remember to keep our politeness with one another.
