If it isn't intentional it shouldn't really be enforced. This could mean two people speak at the same time just purely out of coincidence, or one player has the other muted. If someone is doing it intentionally, staff should warn them. Easy poop boys

wishing it was 2016 again

Can't understand why this thread was downvoted so much. Granted, I don't play on the servers anymore, but that was already a somewhat "controversial" rule when I was DL. I've never been a fan of that rule since I actually think it's quite stupid. I had my best times in xG on Jailbreak, a server that is based on people using voice chat. Imagine if you were to strictly make sure only one person is talking on mic. That would ruin most of the fun, to be honest, since while the gamemode itself is pretty mediocre, the community part of it was fun. The interactions with 20+ people were what made it quite unique and of course it happens that people talk over each other. I think this is more of a common sense thing (haha @Kypari ? ). If there's two people talking and they accidently interrupt each other, nobody needs a staff member saying "GUYS! ONLY ONE PERSON ON MIC!". If someone is talking to someone through voice chat and another person happens to join during that situation and is like "hey guys, what's up", there's no need to enforce that certain rule. Another scenario that is a bit more elaborate: If someone would tell the server a story of how we walked his dog and some other dog almost attacked him, and someone interrupts asking a question relevant to the topic, (i.e. "what breed was the dog that attacked you) on voice chat, then I don't think anyone needs to do anything about it. If, however, someone is purposely disturbing a conversation to "troll/harass" someone, that's a different case where a staff member should take action. That being said, I don't think you can make rules that cover every situation possible. There are several cases where that rule makes no sense at all, but there are also cases where it would make sense. Staff has to do some thinking sometimes. Still kinda dumb to give @maf427, an active player on the servers last time I checked, so many bad ratings tbh. He made a very reasonable and constructive* thread imo, but at the end I'll just have to agree to disagree with these people. * EDIT: Maybe not the way he worded it, but the point he's making.

I didn't think I hit that much yet, but still, oof. Guess that means I've finally reached the legendary status of "Paid Non-Member"

this rule is absolutely and indubitably pathetic and retarded, especially when it occurs in a populous server (surf and tgh at this point). it disappoints me when everybody talks at once and many of staff go apepoop, and as time passes it gets crazier. it happens all of the time when a discussion is currently taking place. either everybody talking at once comes to the epiphany that they're all talking over each other and they all hesistate, which stops the talking, or the people will commence the talking, and in this case, it wreaks havoc. better to not have it as a server rule to give people more freedom while talking on the mic, which brings a more social and friendly atmosphere, and to further shun the staff from having such a hard time with the ongoing issue. it occurs almost every single day i come on surf, but i'm not sure about tgh regarding the issue. a rule where people are not allowed to talk over each other only makes things worse. let them talk, regardless of the amount of people talking. i don't want to hear "don't talk over people" every minute, which not only pisses people off, but it also delays most of the conversations that the server has, this delay being (x) admin giving a poop and talking in (y) tone that talking over people is not allowed. imagine going to a huge party. you hear everybody around you talk, the music is loud, and everybody is having a fun time. you're hearing all of this noise, and if people are going to complain about people talking over each other, then maybe you should go outside. some others can view this controversial topic as a "lack of respect" for talking over somebody about to say something, but in a video game, latency exists, and it can't be compensated for when people are talking. this "lack of respect" can be intentional and non-intentional, and i'm sure the most of you guys can tell whether it was on purpose or completely on accident. otherwise, the victim is just being sarcastic. i understand that servers have their own rules and it's equivalent to going to a night club or any other local area with a myriad of people, but i've never been to any other server that enforces that rule, and if i see any reason being because the server is more unique that way, i'm going to cry.

well it's really funny because regardless of the fact that it was purely unintentional i still hear it be enforced

Idk what you're talking about. I love being the Hitler warden.

Pros of building a PC: 1. You get to know more about the PC and you'll learn alot about PCs Cons: 1. If you are inexperienced you can get confused when building a PC but this can be solved with a quick youtube video on how to build a computer 2. Some risks are parts being in compatible but with some research you can solve the problem pretty easily Pros of prebuild: 1. Due to the increase in RAM and GPU prices due to shortage its better to get a prebuilt since the usually have cheaper priced RAMs and GPUs 2. prebuilt insures that everything is compatible Cons: 1. They might charge you for their service and the OS Some websites that can help you in building a pc: https://pcpartpicker.com/ http://letsbld.com/ Glad I could help you and good luck on building a PC ?

Thank you James, very cool!

After leaving TF2 around 2014 I came back to my favorite servers down I've been wanted to involve myself in another community on TF2 and I couldn't think of another server I'd want to be a part of, help out, and make sure everyone has an enjoyable experience.

Kypari's a guy

This map used to be on TGH and I'm pretty sure it was removed due to poor optimization and whatnot. Also people constantly question whether it's based on a video game (apparently it is, not a lot of people are familiar with it though). Actually I'm pretty sure there was a vote to remove it, you could probably find it if you really wanted, it's probably like months old though, it's been gone a decent while. I can vouch for the poor optimization, the entire map was one big meme zone that was poorly designed. you could die just trying to leave spawn because they had nightmarish parkour as the only way to move at all. skill based movement should be a option to help you move faster through the environment not a requirement to cross the map without dying. everyone also had a strange attraction to the church in the corner for some reason as well.

We've had the map on not even a day. Chill.

* I forgot to mention that Bone has donated $1010.00 to xG as well, which is freaking insane

Not a single person wants to know what you jerk it to, what the fudge dude. It's actually disgusting reading "I'll beat it to anything."

Heading to Navy boot camp tomorrow morning and I won't be coming back for a hot minute so this is goodbye till then. Hope everyone has a good summer and toodles.

But now i have learned from the expirience. But the real reason i want to become a member is because, i have seen many rules breaken when i was on. For example sniping from the spawn, trash talking, arguing & e.c.t. Sorry if i misspell anything im not from America, The United Kingdom e.t.c. Im sorry for lying in the previous applications.

Happy 2015 guys

+1 has a mic A: 0/10 M: 6/9

eh, felt like participating

only pisses off the people who hog mic like dweebs If this wasn't ever a rule, I would have gone completely deaf. I'm exaggerating here, and I'm sure you've already realized that. It's incredibly annoying to have some dufus speak over you every time you try to speak. Without the rule, the annoyance of being spoken over will be multiplied until we've reached a clusterfudge on the mic. I would also like to add that traders and staff can't get on the mic when you people won't let up for a split second, it's ridiculous. The staff members and traders have a much better reason to be on the mic than the ten others speaking on the mic in a mesh of ERP, slurs, and memes. There is a difference between being on a server and going to a party. At a party, there are plenty of side-conversations going on in different sections of the room, whereas on a server everything is right there in your ears. Much easier to overlook the much quieter conversation from the other side of the room compared to someone whispering sweet nothings in your ear. This is where common courtesy comes into play. When you hear another person speaking, you stop. If they also stop, you either start back up again or you say "go ahead fam." Latency has nothing to do with two or more people speaking right on top of each other for a solid ten seconds. I can see why some people might dislike the rule, but it's a pretty simple concept to grasp. Sorry, yellow hat glasses : (

I have bi-polar disorder and anger management problems, so i have a bad tendency to lash out at people. Thats the improvement she was referring to because ive been trying my hardest to stop getting mad

Its the truth. I never have wanted to have a romantic relationship with another man, only women. Pretty sure that makes me straight but idk anymore.
