SO YEAH. I've been meaning to throw one of these threads up just to address some things in the TF2 division. Basically as we all know server population is fluctuating both positively and negatively. We're getting a lot of new members, but yet a lot of people are leaving. We have a ton of new servers and maps thanks to @ColdEndeavour, @Nomulous, and @kbraszzz. xG is changing a lot right now and what better time to change up one of our divisions? So I just have a few things to say that in my opinion will help out TF2 in the long run. If any one else has any ideas, feel free to add here or contact myself or @kbraszzz directly. FIRSTLY. The staff. Sure you can have flashy maps, and tons of plug ins, but staff is one of the biggest parts of any server/clan. Without staff, servers run rampant. Rules are broken, servers slowly get known as unpleasant places, and population declines due to that. A staff member should be kind, courteous, and helpful with whatever issues are brought on to the server. That being said, a staff member must be wearing their tags at all time on any of the TF2 xG servers. NO EXCEPTIONS. This is to show the people that aren't familiar with our staff team who in the server has power to assist. We all need to make a conscious effort (myself included) to portray this image on servers and on forums. (This includes screaming profanities/racial slurs, etc. This behavior is unacceptable) SECONDLY. Members. This delves a little deeper into my first point. Members are one of the first things a non-member will see when hopping onto our servers. Obviously wear the [xG] tags with pride and show people what xG is about. As previously stated this is not server exclusive, but servers should be a main focus at this point. Everything stated above to staff also applies to members. Treat others how you would want to be treated. Simple as that. That means do NOT make fun of a kid for his voice, exclude people because they don't like the same stuff you do, or think differently than you do. (Some very common examples) We're a gaming COMMUNITY after all. Everyone that joins should feel welcome and not threatened. We all need to work on breaking down the wall that the TF2 div threw up and start branching out. THIRDLY. PLUG INS. Not a very large point but still a part of servers. This includes hub as well. It seems that hub especially is mixed feelings ith the community. Some love it, others hate it. I know that RTD has always been a fan favourite, but some other plug ins that we're slowly adding (Last CT on JB comes to mind here) can cause the decline or incline of population. At this present time I do not know if the addition/subtraction will be a significant difference on our servers, but yet it is still something. This being said, I wanted to address all the broken plug ins that have layed broken for weeks, months at a time. If anyone sees bugs or issues with any plug in, contact myself/kbraszz. FOURTHLY. Servers/maps. This is my final point I wanted to say. We all have our favourite maps. The maps that we first joined in on and fell in love with. Some maps that come to mind are Celedon City, Clocktown, Click Clock Woods, and Hop_JB to name a few. Lets say your favourite servers was suddenly changed one day. Or the map you love so much left, you aren't exactly gonna want to stick around. You'll want to go somewhere where the map is present and alive.This is one of our main issues with the TF2 division and it's about time it changes. At this time it's just a few people making the decisions but we all need to come together and figure out what servers/maps we NEED and what servers/maps need the ax. I agree that we have a lot of servers that imitate other servers we have, and only one of the two servers are populated. This is why we need EVERYONE'S help to fix this shit once and for all. That's all I have to say for now. Just some shit I've been thinking about lately. Apologies in advance for bad grammar, punctuation or a repeated tone. (It's 4:20 am at the moment and been working all night so be gentle) AS PREVIOUSLY STATED. ANY THOUGHTS/IDEAS ARE WELCOME. TLDR. Don't be a dick, treat others nice, wear tags, and let's better these servers once and for all/

Division: Team Fortress 2 In-Game Name: |Healix| Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:85002216 Information: AlexThePsychopath's Backpack - backpack.tf - Backpack of accused scammer the day before the ban AlexThePsychopath's Backpack - backpack.tf - Backpack of accused scammer on the day of the scam As you can see, it is obvious that no actual attempted scam was commited. All people on the server can confirm that a bonk atomic punch was provided when the shark was attempted. However, the only bonk in his backpack was an untradable one (it disappeared on the day of the scam, but couldn't have been provided in the trade). With this, it was only natural that I stuck up for my friend. Also, I did not admit to my friend being a scammer, and the " " around the word "scammer" indicates that I was being sarcastic. I was banned permenently for defending my friend, not a scammer as far as I could tell. Without the bonk atomic punch being tradable, this suggests that in actuallity, maybe the person who accused the scammer was actually trying to stir up shit on the server. After all, there was no evidence provided to say that he was a scammer, but just one person's word. I hope you take my ban length into consideration - Healix

Division: Team Fortress 2 In-Game Name: Popcorn Steam ID: Steam Community :: Popcorn Banned: No Previously in xG: No Active on Teamspeak: No Age: 21 Further Information: Hey guys! I've been thinking about joining xG for a while now, and was instructed by Kbrazz to make a new submission thread, so here it is! Just to go ahead and get some things out of the way: Firstly - My brother, who goes by "Eddie" on Steam, and I share our Steam account. We only have one gaming computer in the house, and don't want to go through the trouble of making a whole other account and buying the same games, so we share this account and are known as two different people. He doesn't really go on any xG servers and will not be applying for membership at this time, so he will not wear the clan tag when he is online. Secondly- I also want to go ahead and say that I will be going off to college in late January next year, and will not have access to games on steam until August (as far as I know at this point in time). I am fully prepared to say goodbye to the community at that time, as I will not have access to the servers and therefore will not be able to be active. However! If it's permitted I can still be, and will try my best to be active on the forums, but we can talk about that later. :p If either or both of what I've just mentioned above is going to be an issue regarding acquiring membership, I understand. (Also I literally have not be active on any type of forum since I was about 12 (yes, I'm serious) , so forgive me for acting like a huge newbie on here lol :()

I made this for a project we had to do in My Comm and Graphic Arts class.

420/69 Would buy 1337 times.

I agree completely. The Forums page appears a little cluttered and disorganized to me, seems like everything is too, as smoker would say, "dick ass tight". I also think that the posts seem to blend together, the lines that distinguish between different posts is far too light and its somewhat difficult to tell where one post starts and another ends. In general, the amount of (pardon my language) white seems too offset. Would like to see more of xG's colours (flat grey/sky blue)

BEAT IT UP LIKE BASED GOD WOOP WOOP BITCH MOB

B-But I thought it was TF2? (Wtf why does the 2 go small)

but then it looks like this: I would like the option to just have the old layout back, the yellow throws me off

+1 Ban reason is understandable, but the length should be shortened as there is no actual proof to imply that Healix was helping a scammer instead of his friend

Healix is a really good guy and I've been friends with him for a while. I don't see him doing something that would get him perma-banned. But I would like to see what @Vector has to say about this.

I like Healix, hes never been the bad type deserving of a permanent ban. I don't know the true story behind this but I would like healix unbanned. I will see what Vector says about it.

You don't need to do the challenge to donate, it's to raise awareness. The fact of the matter is, i think it's a retarded challenge too, but at the same time it brings people together and we all can do something dumb to raise awareness. The fact of the matter is that if we all band together and get people like bill gates, Stephen Spielberg, and other huge figures of the world doing it, we can actually do something. Also that whole 7% bull shit is retarded. It's outdated. it's from like two years ago, and there have been multiple other sites reporting bull shit.

look at deese assholes. This "Gumbo" guy sounds like the top tier of asshole. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FCgr3QHz8E

Football? Ha, you think any one in this clan watches football. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

Can there at least be an option to use the older layout of the website? I want the website to be as dark and dreicht as possible, like my country.

Theme has some nice new features, but one thing i'm not really an fan of is the background on the 'Xeno Gamers' text. Also, bans.xenogamers.com and rank.xenogamers.com almost feel detached from the website because the top header stuff doesn't carry over.

GAY PRIDE.

You're complaining about not getting high drop items that have A RARE CHANCE TO GET so you hate the game? It was no one else's choice but yours to spend over $800 to do this. This thread is basically you saying that you've lost money so you want people to buy your shit. At least that what it seems to me. I also can't help but notice the 2800+ hours spent on TF2. So clearly this is just you being salty about not getting the drops you want. kekekekeek Games aren't about you having better DIGITAL ITEMS than others. It's about having fun. Yes there are people that merchant but those people don't actually play the game.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_hHKlEZ9Go Watch the first 2 minutes and 37 seconds of that^ I'm not doing it. Plus, majority of the donated money doesn't even go to the research for the cauese. Maybe I would donate if I didnt know that: But in the end I dont have money anyway. (Facebook user claims that only 7% of ALS challenge donations go towards research | Latest News & Updates at Daily News & Analysis) Like Felix said, I dont have to do some stupid "challenge" too donate. If I really wanted too, I would just donate and hope for the best.
