    Hey you spastic anal munchkins! This Wednesday, we will be continuing our seizure-inducing headache of an event I like to refer to as Wub Wub Wednesday!
     
    The last time we did this event, we had an excellent turnout. We enjoyed the discord that was the map koth_wubwubwub_remix, gave away free shit, and enjoyed the company of other spergs and regulars. I want to do it again!
     
    As far as giveaways are concerned, I currently have nothing in the way of good items to give to our players, so unless we receive any sort of donations on that part, it looks to be just enjoying the map this time around. That is all subject to change however if anyone finds it in the kindness of their souls to give me shit so I can give it away. (@Dethman, you have stuff you wanted to donate. GIMME.)
     
    Event will start at 6:00pm MST, just like last time, in the Trade, Events, and More! server. (IP posted above)
     
    LET'S ROCK OUT WITH OUR COCKS OUT! (Not really, that'd be uncomfortable.)

    Alright same issue as before, we used the default kernel config that the host supplied to compile the kernel on the website machine. It worked without issue!
     
    We applied the same process towards the database machine, and it crashed upon connection. It disabled complete connection to the machine and crashed out all other clients using that machine. Essentially we were dead in the water and were waiting for it to be fixed for HOURS. Once it was fixed and we were able to connect again, we did the EXACT SAME THING as we did to the website machine AGAIN, and it worked.
     
    In response to this, we are going to be setting up a MySQL replication server and binding it together with a TCP balancer. So if one server goes down, all traffic can be sent to the other without issue :)
     
    Sorry about the downtime.

    Alright the downtime was NOT an April Fools joke. Here is what happened.
     
    - At around 4AM EST, our machine crashed. An emergency Xen Hypervisor update was installed on the machine and it was brought online.
    - Our VPS never started, and had issues mounting the disk.
    - It was determined that the VPS kernel did not properly support the newest version of the Xen Hypervisor, so we downgraded it and the VPS was able to start again.
    - Main VPS had kernel updated to the latest stable release.
    - MySQL server refused to start, and after viewing the logs, major corruption was responsible for the server being unable to start.
    - Quickly restored backups of the MySQL databases, and rebuilt the InnoDB logs, bringing the server back online.
     
    Sorry about the downtime. I promise it wasn't my fault!

    So, we have been trying to keep this a secret for quite some time now, but I feel it is an appropriate time to make this knowledge public, considering the money has completely cleared my bank account and @Rhododendron and @Nomulous have been paid in full to step down from their current roles as Clan Leaders and give full control to me.
     
    Hello XenoGamers. You are looking at the new owner of www.xenogamers.com and the XenoGamers clan. Whoo!
    That's right, boys and girls. I have purchased the clan and will directly assume the role as owner of the clan.
     
    That all being said, there are some major changes that will take place immediately. I will list out the changes to be made in sections below, that way you can easily find what you are looking for.
     
    -Counter Strike: Global Offensive-
     
    The first, and probably biggest change to our community happens to the CSGO division. After running some data analysis and comparing numbers between CSGO and TF2, I hate to say it, but....CSGO just isn't pulling enough money to warrant its existence. So, as of tomorrow, all CS:GO servers will be permanently shut down and all staff members will lose their positions. I hate to see you all go, as you are all excellent people (Except for @Snackbar, fuck that guy), but this is how it's going to be. RIP CS:GO.
     
    -Team Fortress 2-

    Ahh, yes. Team Fortress 2. The supplemental life force of XenoGamers' revenue. The heart of the money flow. This is where the future lies, and I'm going to milk it for all its worth.
     
    To start, we will do heavy renovations to the TF2 servers we currently have in place. For starters, Trade Gaming History is getting the axe. That place is a shithole. Instead, we are turning it into 24/7 Edventures, because it is in my experience that memes and shitposting get people in our servers. This map has both, and LOTS of it. So say goodbye to all those other garbage maps, because Edventures is here to stay permanently.
     
    Secondly, we have found that the two main types of people who play TF2 belong to two powerful fanbases: Bronies and Undertailors. So, to better suit their needs and desires, the Pokemon server is becoming a full-fledged MLP server, and our Jailbreak server will become a 24/7 Flowey Boss Battle server. I've personally spoken to the creator of the map and actually purchased it from him, so we will have exclusive access to the plugins and the map itself. xG will become known for the hosting of that map. If you wish for more information, you can watch this youtube video to see how it works:
     
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYG5cF3bfFE
     
    This also brings me to my next point: We are removing the rules about porn sprays, but only if it's yiff/clop porn to appeal to the sexually oppressed masses we will be catering to. So staff members, you MUST change your in-game sprays to some sort of pony/undertale porn IMMEDIATELY.
     
    Next up, we will be removing any and all other event maps that do not meet the traffic requirements. These include Saxton Hale, Slender Fortress, Zombie Fortress, and Surf. We simply do not have enough players joining those servers to warrant their existence, so we are downsizing servers to spend less money.
     
    This will essentially turn XenoGamers into a haven for Bronies and Undertale fans. That brings me to my next point: How we are to handle ourselves here in the forums.
     
    -The Forums-

    We have always had ourselves a good chuckle at each others' expense here on the forums, but it's time for that to change. So, effective immediately, anyone who is caught using the derogatory terms "autist", "cuck", "cancer", or any sexist/racist/bigoted language will be immediately forum banned permanently. They will also be barred from using any of our servers.
     
    Chat filters will be implemented on all xG servers to prevent the use of lennies, hateful speech, and profanity, except for 24/7 Edventures. That server only survives because of the dank memes, so we must at least tolerate it there.
     
    Also, we will be removing all sections of the forums that do not pertain to TF2 and staff management, as they will not be necessary. @Vector will be reinstated to full power and will replace @kbraszzz as Clan Leader. @Hidingmaster will be demoted to Latrine Master, leaving only us two to manage the site. We will bring back xG to its former glory.
     
    As for the TF2 staff, since all of you are so unhealthy to the community, you will all be replaced with predominant members of the Equestria Gaming TF2 community. This is basically a full purge of xG, as to rid us of our past, shitty selves, and start again anew, a beautiful winged creature to sail into the sunset.
     
    Oh, and one last thing...if you thought any of this was real, PLEASE check the date. Have a merry one, guys. =)

    This Wednesday, we will be hosting the first of (hopefully) our new weekly event on the Trade, Events, and More server called Wub Wub Wednesday. Featuring the awesomeness that is koth_wubwubwub_remix. If you haven't ever experienced this map, you owe it to yourself to partake in all the drugs and trip balls with the rest of us!
     
    This objective-based map features some of the greatest (and by that I mean most autistic) music and stroby lights imaginable. Seizures and epilepsy are guaranteed.
     
    I am also planning on giving prizes to random members of the winning team after each round, so come ready to participate and you may win some fabulous stuff! (Tat being said, donations are highly appreciated to help fund the giveaway pot.)
     
    The event is scheduled to begin at 6:00pm MST. Be there ready to battle it out for the space wubs!

    Heyo xG!
     
    You know what I realized? I realized that it has been a good long while since we've orchestrated a gathering of the world's spergiest motherfuckers in one area at once. That's right, I'm talking about yet another xG Event, hosted in the TF2 Trade, Events and More! server.
     
    So, to remedy that, I would like to host an event this Friday at 6:00pm MST. There will be games, giveaways, and all-around autism on so many different levels.
     
    Mark your calendars! This is going to be an event worth remembering! We are celebrating the re-release of the Capture Point Plugin on TGH, as well as the addition of many classic and fan-favorite maps to one of our longest-standing servers. I personally will also be celebrating meeting a huge personal goal of my own, so there will be high spirits for everyone around!
     
    As far as giveaways go, I am planning on giving away steam codes for the following three games:
     
    One Piece Pirate Warriors 3
    Dragonball Xenoverse
    Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Burst 3 - Full Burst
     
    I do not have anything in the way of TF2 items to give out as prizes, so if you would like to help grow the pot of things to win, please contact me to arrange any donations for giveaways!
     
    I hope we can fill the server! The more the merrier! Spread the word and let's plan on a fun-filled evening!
