coming back after 15 years

first thing's first, props to anyone keeping this alive.

​

but the server picture is very different than what I remembered.

back then there were "beginner" servers, with XP/rank/skill promotions, 30-50 players, and weird mods, and there were the "pro" servers with no XP, 12-20 players, rotation tournament maps, and only "ETPro".

today, as I come to play, it seems that only the first type of servers survived - mostly xp save, all with rank/skill promotions, and 30-50 players.

when I join such a server, I'm in an immediate disadvantage - my opponents have fast reload, many more grenades, all of their skills are up, etc etc, and it's not a fair playground at all.

am I missing something? is the old "pro"/tournament/competition server scene gone?
