Actually to be honest its not even FR/Lr or even a map game anymore >Warden gives out of cell order >Warden orders Ts out of cell >Guncheck >Mass large bomb spam >Last ct activated Now im not saying that the bomb spam is the main reason for css dying. But to be fair it did ruin Jailbreak for me and a lot of other people

CSS died when all the trolls got banned. RIP to the realest. #nomoretrolls

CS:S is dead and has been dead no matter how you want to put it. Believe it not, you guys have been trying to beat a dead horse for quite some time, on top of that you guys have suggested the same few things over and over again to no success. Such things include adding an expanded variety to maps, adding hub, and rewriting the rules. All of this has been done with the exception of adding hub, which would just contain a few features at this point such as trails/hats. Realistically "adding hub" was an excuse for as to why jailbreak was dying. I won't deny it added some incentive to playing jailbreak because it motivated people to play for credits. But the current problem is people are just plain bored. Everyone needs to realize jailbreak was only good because we made it fun through our activities, various personalities, and our friendships. You can never bring that back.

As someone who used to play a lot of Jailbreak on CSS back in its hayday, I think you might as well put a bullet in it. It's like my old-ass grandpa, like he used to be fun and people liked him but then he got old and now we pretend to like him but he should really just die, man. Nobody's ever on the server anyway. Clean that shit out.

I agree.

Situation is grim, I agree. There's really not much anybody can do. Look at HellsGamers. They have arguably been one of the most populated jailbreak servers (if not the most ever) and even they seem to be having some issues with low(er) populations than usual. Their response? Updates. Obviously this is a different situation, and to be brutally honest xG CSS jailbreak may be beyond the point at which updates will fix it. However, CSS was literally responsible for the creation of this community. I think at least a final effort should be made to attempt to do what is possible to save what is left. I think the current playerbase and older players, moderators, divs, co-leaders, "trolls" (-_-) deserve a least a final effort to attempt to save what they created. If it doesn't work this time then it really is done. Hard to see CSS go but thats the way shit works.

That's right I am stepping down from CSS because of these reasons..... 1) TF2 has taken over my butthole 2) A Small Child @kbraszzz once said to me [xG:DM] Kbraszzle Dazzle: But you will end up becoming matsi 2.0 3) CSS isnt as populated as it was back in 2012 :\ 4) TF2 has a shit ton of fun features 5) TF2 is just fun to me because I just turned 2½ 6) Im a FurFag

not my css...

This Landover stuff sure takes me back a couple years. No idea how you guys haven't seen it before.

TF2 and CSS? Pft, CS GO is the only true division

GIVE THIS MAN AN AWARD, IF HE DOESN'T DELIVER PERM THE SHIT OUT OF THIS FAGGOT FROM EVERYTHING

Just because our Pokemon Trade server I guess is considered a 24/7 Golden Rod. Its would be a great addition to Pokemon. I wouldnt even make a standalone. I would add it to Pokemon Trade because that is our most populated server and see what the people there have to say. Making a standalone makes no sense. And adding a POKEMON map to tgh even though we have a POKEMON related server also makes no sense. Pls just add to Pokemone trade

When @ColdEndeavour showed me the map I was on pokemon trade. I asked the people on whether or not they would like ecruteak, the next city in johto, as a map. People loved the idea. Didn't hear a single person against it. They wanted more maps (as long as they were pokemon maps). We should either somehow make this a poll or close this and make a new post with a poll. The server IS called pokemon trade, and not goldenrod trade (#misleading) after all.

I say we get more Pokemon oriented maps on Pokemon trade rather than on TGH to follow the name.

Everything you just linked is basic as fuck and comes nowhere near what you need to have a legitimate css jb to compete with the other servers like hg etc out there. the amount of custom content and actual working content is ridiculous on css, a lot of the shit that is public is broken.

It might be the fact that staff are no longer picked on the basis of how they act in the server, knowledge of the rules, or how helpful they are, but of how active they are. I won't name names, I just would not have promoted many people over the past few months.

I have an old ass windows mouse from like 2002. lol.

This thread shall be bumped. Lightly. I don't want to hurt it. Bumping hurts. I know.

Not sure if this is allowed still but !resizeme When not in !friendly. No !resizeme on JB.

Yay I got tagged! Okay, so: Basically I agree with everything except "Do not spawn more than 1 boss or 10 skeletons at a time.".Why? Well.. I saw it today, I spawned the hhh. 20 people were on pokemon and they almost killed him while he was spawning. The rest is fine.. :)

At certain points in time you realize that things you loved greatly cannot last forever. People move on, you get bored, things get stale. No matter how much you wish that things would return to the "way they used to be" you have to realize that it will never. CS:S is exactly this, something that was once a great time, with great people, and a game you could play for 12 hours straight without being bored. Unfortunately it just doesn't have to appeal, to anyone that plays anymore. We are lucky to have an hour a day with anyone on it. Minigames fairs slightly better, but still has dismal population numbers. And when either of these servers are populated, most of the time it is members; the randoms are few and far between. At the current moment, CS:S is seriously struggling. Population is low, its stale, people complain about the state of it. So what do we do about it. There are really two options, and before carrying on I ask you to take a minute and seriously think it through. Don't look into the past and think about how much fun JB was in 2011-2012; you realistically cannot expect it to be the same ever again. Option 1: The tough choice Nobody wants to say it, but I have no problem being the first. I think a serious consideration about taking CS:S down for good is in order here. As it stands right now, we are putting a lot of money into server upkeep but seeing very little benefit. We haven't changed much on the servers in what seems to be years, and certainty nothing drastic has changed to make it fun or worth it. So let's say we do decide it's time to let go of CS:S, what can we do with the money that is saved? Well, it certainly will make xG that much easier to keep running; there would be less reliance on Silence and a few random people to keep the servers paid for. In addition this money could theoretically be invested into one of the other divisions, whether it be CS:GO, GMOD, or TF2. My hopes is that something would be worked out with CS:GO div @Bleed to migrate current mods+ and to work on creating a great JB and minigames experience there. I tend to think of this option as the better for all option, versus the better for some. The benefits of this choice are: 1) Save money, which xG has needed to do for quite some time. 2) More focus can be had on CS:GO, a division that I see a lot of potential in. 3) With focus on CS:GO, there can be a new experience that can create new memories 4) Letting CS:S go before it becomes an even bigger let down Option 2: The risky choice And then there's the second option which involves a makeover of CS:S JB. The three division managers (Cristo, Dr. Lee, and I) could attempt to essentially do jailbreak all over. Rewrite the rules (less strict), deleted all maps and add just a handful to get started, get hub into jailbreak, and even potentially remove bans to help open the server back up to a lot more people. What we could do is just shut jb down for a week or two to get a lot of this done and create a stringent schedule that would be posted on the forums to get the list of items added and jb running. This would take work by a lot of people though, and may take a while to get going. We would need @Nomulous and @Bleed to get hub running. My concern with this is 1) Not getting hub done, as it was supposed to be done a year ago and 2) A lot of work being put into this and only seeing a benefit for a few days once the server is back. In my opinion, hub isn't the CS:S savior. It's not new, its really not different from other servers, and I can only see it bringing a few days of excitement back. So those are just the two choices that I have devised, but there may be more out there. I already briefly discussed some of this with the division managers, but really it will be up to all to decide what happens. And like I said, it is though to say that CS:S should be put away, but something you just have to realize when things may be done. @Rhododendron @Forest @Bonk @DrLee @Cristo @Gawd @diabeetus @ThePenguin @snakeboyeric @Hexx @Haxx @Legend

If it is required, I'll make a 24/7 server of this map for a week and see the success comparison if it'll potentially replace golden rod, added to TGH, or stay standalone. I'll do it this Sunday when I'm home, but please make sure it is big free and compatable with a few main trading plugins.

Makes the map have an objective. We were having hella fun on golden eye but you still complain? Damn, nothing makes you happy.

hmm. a rule where you can only spawn bosses once every 30 minutes.

fail

TF2 is shit

leaving CSS for TF2? good choice! Pic definitely related.
