Id software mistakenly allowed PC/Dreamcast cross platform play with a special PC patch of Quake 3. Guys who had been playing FPS on PC with a mouse and keyboard for a decade at that point invaded poor controller using Dreamcast player servers and just savagely demolished them.
If the player base of a game could run their own servers, and filter out the normies themselves, the level of play on more elite servers would go up. I remember those days playing Team Fortress Classic. Scrub servers were scrub, but I would go to the elite servers.
