Latency is how you measure your connection to the server IIRC. Also known as Lag.
High Latency = Slow connection.
Ping is the amount of time it takes to send X amount of bits to and from the server, like submarine pings

Tker = Team Killers (friendly fire on, wankers that shoot their own team)
other's laney said.
Used to play quite a lot a couple of years ago - (the original counter strike) now play like once in a every 2 weeks or something.

Hold Tab for the scoreboard, will tell you your latency (I thought ping and latency were same thing) as for clans, they are groups of people who spend waaaay too much time playing it, have a team registered on a website, and play matches for tournements etc.

They are just about the same, other than crappy graphics and shitty physics on the old one.

nothing like just standing in the way of a door, or shooting your own team mate (american) in the face
