For this situation. I see two possibities (I agree with them breaking some servers for fun, it's why @kbraszzz and I didn't add it earlier). Either add it to the RTD effect rotation, or make it a donator command; or remove it entirely. Just my two quick cents.

And what have we learned today kids? That the "edit silently" option is the biggest load of crap. Also is the biggest lie in the history of internets.

Because i know the rules better than you kids and this is from silence. He told me and scootaloo to do it. I don't see why it's a big deal, why can't i help give rules? always a damn problem

Don't mean to be rude or anything, but why make them with Vector? Shouldn't this technically be consulted with your fellow DMs? Vector's a smart guy, but you have your DMs for a reason. Besides that, rules look good to me. Regarding the hacking, I am almost ALWAYS able to tell. If I'm online, feel free to message me @othermods/admins

@Hidingmaster F***king rekt

Nigguh FUDGE yo tea. Tis merely just standard protocol among Divisions. It's never a good representation of a Division when changes are discussed with those who aren't Higher-Up, that's all. Gives off a "biased" air, n'ah mean. Also wtf, if Rhods recognizes your input as important, y the fudge aren't you a dm yet :bored:

Just perm anyone who does any sort of lenny face or varient. that will solve the problem!

Definitely something that could be added to Admin commands. Then, votes could be initiated, and assuming the vote passes with 70%+, could definitely be initiated for a set amount of time.

I'm all for this being added to RTD. Is that possible? If it becomes a Donator thing, is that also something that can be added via some sort of plugin? I'd assume that it'd need to be regulated as other commands as well, and people won't be allowed to use them to gain advantages, yes?

Recently I have noticed that when players are punished I have seen things such as "what did I tell you" for the reason slot.I know the player was told,but would putting the reason given slot with the actual reason be more viable than just "what did I tell you"? These are just my opinions but what are your guy's views on these topics?

But, yes, we really should delete some of the old rule threads. I shall delete all the out-dated rules thread in a moment. I'm also going through the stickied threads so I can edit the capitalization. All else will be delt with later today or is out of my reach as it deals with the site's set up itself, not the threads. I rarely find the time I need mod in the steam group, but I'm wondering how I can get steam notifications for whenever someone posts in the 'comment section.' That'd probably require me to post there myself, right?

You are the one and only CL, do something about this

Hey, I just met you and this is crazy, but this song is stupid, so welcome to xG. what am I doing with my life ._.

Yeah. You think these are good ideas? Then do them yourself. Lazy CL's that don't do their job (AKA FOREST). Oh yeah, and the rules section needs a serious overhaul. AKA I agree.

tl;dr Forest has ocd

Mmm. Rookies. Staff should always present legitimate reasoning for kicks/bans. Its not only the professional thing to do, but also provides a.. Well, reason behind the ban. Otherwise if someone comes around to protest a ban, all the Staff + Higher-Ups have to go by is the ridiculous "i told you not to" reason, or otherwise the word of the Staff who banned the player.

I was just saying that for me it didn't make too big a difference either way. I can see if others think it's enabling cheap kills I suppose. =/

I just moved into a new hotel and just got a new potentially-kickass laptop. I was able to go online the first day, but at some point while I was watching cat videos, my computer just disconnected to the network. When it said that it was connected again, I started the browser again and got redirected to the login portal, except for one thing: the page wouldn't load. Chrome says ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED at the bottom. The only way to get the internet to work at all is to go back to a previous savestate, which kinda doesn't help when you realize that I wind up having the same issue the next day. My mom's computer had the same issue, but her fiance somehow fixed it just by running CCleaner (which didn't work when I tried it on mine). I tried talking to somebody at the front desk, and they knew about as much as me. The only site I can get to is oddly enough Youtube. Which would be a good thing, if it would let me watch the videos. Instead, all I can do is comment, assuming that it automatically signed me into Google +. IT'S BAD ENOUGH THAT I CAN'T USE THE INTERNET ON MY 3DS, BUT DO THEY REALLY HAVE TO MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO USE THE INTERNET ON MY COMPUTER TOO!?!?!? The only advice I've been given on this was either unhelpful, or in nerd language. If anyone can translate the ladder, link: windows 7 - Unable to view browser login screen at hotels and libraries - Super User Not sure if it would be the same, as this guy's running Windows 7 and I'm running 8.1, however hopefully this solution could work.

im in a rush and I'm gonna lose wifi soon so here it is *insert leaving thread and reasons* im too much in a rush to make it look like im actually leaving so basically il be back next week by Sunday. Going on a school trip to Chicago. I'm scared of Hachi.

If we make it for uber-donators, then grappling hooks will most likely appear too often. As many people don't like the hooks, it could drive away population if it occurs too much.

i vouch for it to be an uber donator thing +1

we are all hookers inside keep the hooks

Lately, things have been very temperamental around xG. Often times, I feel like there’s too much bickering and too much fighting among our members to justify the time that I put into doing what I do. Lots of times I feel like the only reason many of us are here is due to habit and never actually wanting to contribute to make xG a better place. Whoo hoo! Secret message! Just as I have had a difficult time watching many of my friends leave our clan, this post comes as a difficult measure. Usually, I wouldn’t be so long-winded about it, but I really feel that my feelings need to be heard. Sometimes, I wish that the level of stress I have to put up with as an Admin on xG was a lot lower, but alas it isn’t. There have been many moments where I simply had to stop and ask myself “What am I doing here?” Kudos to those who found it in them to stick around as long as you have. I feel like that’s quite an accomplishment. Despite all of this, however, I have decided that it is time for me to step down and leave xG. Don’t take it upon yourself to try and persuade me otherwise. I’ve made my decision. Now, it’s time for me to be moving on. Getting along with most of you has proven to be too difficult to keep maintenance on. If any of you harbor some sort of anger towards me, I can understand. Many of you, I consider close friends, so I don’t exactly expect a lot of whiplash, but I know some of you have butted heads with me in the past, so I’m ready to never speak with a few of you again. Make sure to check the first letter of each sentence! Never have I been apart of a community that was so often divided. Often times I sit back and just laugh about how immature and childish the members of our clan can be. Then, I had an epiphany: I don’t need to be here for this nonsense any longer. Giving into my inner desires to never have to deal with this drama again has been absolutely relieving. Out of madness I venture forth to find brighter and greener pastures. In due time, I’m sure I’ll find another community that will actually have respect for one another, instead of a bunch of mindless idiots fighting with each other and spouting stupid-ass dank memes until they literally go insane with one another. Never again will I look back. Grasp for me to stay all you want, but it’s high time I stop babysitting the meme lords and actually find a group of mature individuals who can carry on like normal-ass human beings. Alas, I will miss many of you. Now comes the time for the sad goodbyes. Yes, I said it: I will miss many of you, and will keep you added as friends on Steam for hopefully the next long while. Who is it that I’ll miss, you ask? Hell, it’s gonna be the people I tag in this post. Every single one of you is a hell of a person and I’m glad xG at least brought us together. Ready the tears, ladies and gents. Envision an xG without Scootaloo, because it’s about to happen. @Moosty @Vector @Hachi @Liekos @kbraszzz @Bach @Tomahawk @Kart @Tekage @Kypari @SaNMiTTaNz @BelloWaldi @ArminArmout @Rejects @RinAoi @Cr1TiKaL @Dethman @SinlyXD @Ghosty @Gorillabot3000 @ChickenPanda @Flareon@Literally my friends list.

What does YOU having no clip matter how the players feel? Are you fighting with no clip on? A lot of people don't like it bc they get BS kills. I'm not saying we should get rid of it but it can't stay like this if we wanna keep the population.

I was on pokemon a lot yesterday. EVERYONE apart from someone called Rafa liked the hooks. They can break the radio tower somehow as someone broke the radio tower using them. Some people threatened to quit going on the server and one even said that pokemon trade used to be his favourite server but since the hooks were added, he doesn't like it. Definite NO.

Hey guys don't shoot the messenger ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

So, I'm about to spew out a bunch of suggestions and stuff that may be akin to several other threads that discussed "changes" in or out of the forums/XenoGamers. Just a heads up. To put it mildly, I feel that the forum and its sections need to be cleaned and tidied up. I realize this is a very broad.. Suggestion, and so I will take the liberty of stating what I mean, hopefully without making this post "TL;DR" material (lets face it, its going to end up as such anyways). By no means am I commanding it or anything of the sort, but merely suggesting ways to re-organize things. Now, without further ado, lets begin: _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Overall Important and miscellaneous stuff that should be noted, but won't be included below as "major" content. This applies to most, if not all, of the sections discussed (or to the Forums in general): Titles of the threads that are stickied need to be altered. Sections are afflicted with threads that are properly titled with threads that aren't properly titled seen here. Notice the threads that are properly capitalized and the threads that look like a sentence (IE. "xG Member Gallery" as opposed to "Staff roster, helpful notes, rules and other things") Stickied threads that belong in another place should be re-located Invalid rules and other content around the forum (confined within Stickied threads) need to either be re-vamped or removed entirely "Consoles" section should be re-named to "Games and Consoles" to better accommodate both sides "Computers" should be relocated as a sub-section of "Tech Talk" "Uncategorized" should be re-named to better reflect (after all, they technically are categorized already), perhaps "Miscellaneous" (wasn't it that before?) "Divisions" should be re-named "Game Divisions" to clarify further _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Rules" Section I personally feel like this particular page should consist only of XenoGamer's policies and regulations, and as such would need to be re-named ("Rules and Regulations") to reflect these things . Threads such as the "admin handbook" or others that revolve around policies/regulations. With that said, I realize it is also the home of our several Division's sets of rules. This results in what looks like a big cluster ***k of rules that can be overwhelming to some. My proposition is to include a new section along with each particular Division that pertains only to the rules/guidelines of that particular Division. What this will allow is an ordered set of rules that are relevant to each other as well as to their Division. No more scrolling through 10+ threads that are irrelevant to what you need when you need it. If this isn't an option, then at the very least add sub-sections to the "Rules" section that leads to a particular Division's rules/guidelines so that you aren't greeted with a giant mess of threads upon clicking on it. I would also suggest cleaning up out-dated sets of rules. This applies to literally everything. I realize this will be tedious, but there are some pretty out-dated or otherwise invalid rules floating around the forum and they need to either be re-vamped or removed entirely. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "General" Section Not much to report here other than the content of some of the stickied threads. Obviously this section is for anything that doesn't fit anywhere else, but there are a few stickied threads that belong in another place. As mentioned in the "Rules" section, the "admin handbook" should be re-located (although generalized, it still pertains to Staff and should therefore be shoved into a section like "Rules" or if altered "Rules and Regulations"). The thread "Want to get unbanned?" should also be re-located. Again, although it applies to the general public, it specifically gravitates around getting out of a ban, and should therefore be found in the "Ban Protest" section. This one has been bugging me the most. "xG Member Gallery" located in the "General" section, but not in the section labelled "Gallery". Self explanatory. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ These are just some of the things I've noticed and wanted to point out as problems with the Forums. There may be others, but I'm counting on people to post below what else they think should be re-formatted, re-organized, etc. Going through each section will take some time, but hell, it'll look a lot more presentable when it's done. Just to re-cap, these are all merely suggestions and should be treated as such. I also apologize for making this a "TL;DR" post even though I tried to keep it short. .. Not really. ... I didn't try at all. Deal with it. :coffee: - Dat guy, Forest. Da real CL ~ Community Leader Tree (Nom was here) - Lee hopping on the editing bandwagon
