a lot of old jailbreak maps, I don't know if the new[er] maps have the same problem but i dont think I've seen one so far. I just thought @Egossi was refering to that since it's a glitch we both have experienced.

i wasnt bashing you, you literally texted me "I want access to cvar" here's the reason why that would not make sense.

there's already these 8 channels in TS right now

So to try to help you guys find what plugins to remove to try and help with crashing, I went through a list of all the plugins on TGH, updated a couple, removed a few duplicates (let me know if I accidentally broke anything), and made a list of non-essential plugins for you guys to consider removing. It's mostly plugins that are unnecessary admin commands, various "fun commands" plugins, and plugins I'm not sure what they do (some are probably donator plugins that shouldn't be removed, i dont know which though).

Was testing minecraft sorry for delay :D

Skill surf is now live! Please make any suggestions or bug reports in this thread. Map requests are to go here.
The ip is 64.74.97.157:27015
 
The server currently features 49 maps, which is a mix of Tier 1-3 maps. A full maplist can be found here.
 
We will have custom models on this server as well, ETA for those are in a 1-2 weeks. If you have any idea of what we could add, use the suggestion thread linked above
 
Happy surfing!

I'm happy to start posting things in staff only forums about upcoming features, the thing is I tend to talk to staff on teamspeak about things in advance, and some staff even after months of features being out don't make any comments on it, so in my head it seemed like I would most likely be the one who had to take charge regardless and flesh out a new feature with silence, and then once you guys get interested in being involved to actually change it and improve it. Regardless, before something big is enabled on the forums (that I have an idea for or silence wants to implement) I'll post a thread so you guys can explain your initial thoughts on it and ask any questions you might have.
Owl got shit for his post because of his wording, he didn't think of the repercussions of changing sponsor and tf2 donation system to credit based after how many people have donated towards it, and then thought that it was "super stupid" to not enable it, even though he didn't think of all the people who have donated thus far and what their thoughts might be towards that change. I already explained that he had good points that I agree with and I'm happy to flesh out specifics with the rest of the divs.
We can have the full system sorted out before releasing it, and I'll work on badges for sponsors with Silence.
@Egossi I know your attitude is not meant to be taken seriously, but right now we are going to implement different tiers of pets in minecraft (as there is about 35 unique ones) and people will be able to pay for the tier they want accordingly. I don't know why you think 35 pets being unlocked day 1 would be a bad start for a sponsor reward (which is not the only thing for minecraft btw) nor do I know why you act as if I don't want better things for sponsors. Did you even read the first post of this thread? I suggested "Custom Powers (i.e. soundboard, special days in Jailbreak etc)" so why would you even respond to my comment with

Forums have these issues since the architecture we've switched to is still new and I'm still learning a lot about it. Like for example it was just down because I had to move the session creation process to be created asynchronously since it was causing lag issues.
 
I've upgraded the vpses though with more memory so they shouldn't be crashing anytime soon.

@Lithium and I have spent hours on trying to prevent crashes, yet they still happen. It's not as easy to fix as you seem to think. Additionally it's not always crashes that are shutting the server down, when a new tf2 update is released the server automatically installs a new version and restarts itself, so everyone who downloaded the update can play on it.

@Owl letting people buy sponsor with credits makes 0 sense. First of all, the tiers give you credits to play with, why would we make it cost credits when you earn it from events, bounties etc. The whole point of sponsor is for the individuals who want to support the servers with money, I'm 100% against this.
 
Another thing too is sponsor is supposed to be get custom perks on our servers through the use of credits (for example teamspeak icons) which is why giving them credits as "spending money" towards perks that they personally want make more sense than to charge them credits for sponsor. It's exactly like the case of getting a custom tag on CS:GO for 5 dollars, we charge them money for it because not everything should be done with credits. This was agreed upon the CS:GO staff in the past, so I don't really understand your reasoning for using credits to buy Sponsor of all things.
 
Last thing, changing the system to a credit system seems like a huge fuck you to the people who have donated already for sponsorship and TF2 donator powers, and really make us lose money in the long run. These opinions can't be given 6 months into it where people donated about 100's of dollars total for a rank/donator powers that they could have got much cheaper for credits.

lmao fixed

Silence and I (I believe mudkip and mince were there too but it wasn't that important) had a discussion earlier and there were some points I think should 100% go into play

Paid staff positions:
Silence really was pushing for this, at least for the CSGO division. Paid staff would be added on to the sponsor tier. Users would have the group "sponsor" in sourcebans and wear tags as xG:S.
Their powers would be very minimal:

Slay
Kick
Teamswap
Mute
Gag
Exclusive items on hub
 
Potential server-specific options:
 
Free special days/rtds (jb)
Extend map (servers that aren't jb, probably)
Votes hold more weight (all servers if we wanna transition to UMC)
 
Increased credit gain (all servers, not by much tho, maybe just up by 1/2 in distributor)
 
Other stuff I can't think of for future servers



After thinking over it for a while I don't mind it at all, I think it could be a good way to encourage more sponsors (we have 4 lol) while boosting server popularity with minimal risks.
There is to be a notice somewhere that says all sponsors moderator powers will be removed if there is any cases of abuse/etc.
 
I believe that the same sponsor rank should be added to other divisions.
Possibly TF2 sponsors could get all the donator powers? Also integrating and replacing tf2's donator tiers and grandfathering them into Sponsorship could be a good idea to future proof everything, but I'll leave that to tf2/CLs. Using ideas similar to what I listed for CSGO, if possible, should happen.
Minecraft already has a lot of systems in place to give major benefits to sponsors.
No comment on gmod/nd as they aren't real divisions.
 
Ease to purchase sponsor
In its current state, sponsor is not very easy for new players/forum retards to actually purchase. Adding an option (or restricting it to this entirely) to purchase sponsor through the forum hub with credits would be dank as fuck, and seems super stupid to not have it in place already
same for tf2 donator powers
 
I also personally think that the sponsor tiers thing we have going on is unintuitive and should be minimized to just one option or reworked to something that would be simpler. This would benefit the option to purchase through credits. honestly I don't really have a solution on this one but I just am not a fan of the tiers. If anything just add all the tiers to the hub and keep it how it is, just with credits. idunno tho
 
all of this is just speculation and not promised to happen, obviously

lmao fixed

if any thing make it a rule where you must be in the server and in the Scrim lobby to show that you want to play. Use the ts logs to see who are the first 10 in ts then the first 10 in game.

You know your duty and reward.

Game Name: Pokémon Sun and/or Moon
 
Platform: (new) Nintendo 3DS (XL)
 
Time Spent: ~ 100 Hours
 
Do you recommend? YESYESYES
 
Rating: 9.5/10
 
Initial Thoughts: At first glance, the game looks pretty advanced compared to the other Pokémon games in the series, and when starting the game up, a title screen showcasing the main legendary pokémon (Solgaleo and Lunala for Pokémon Sun or Moon respectively) pops up, promising for a good game experience.
 
BE READY FOR MINIOR (heh) SPOILERS IN THE GAME
 
Pros: The removal of HM Discs
This new feature will not only free up bag space and shorten the amount of time sifting through moves to teach your Pokémon, but will also get rid of visits to a frankly unnecessary NPC.
 
Ride Pokémon
Replacing the HM Disc Moves, this new feature allows the main character, Sun or Moon, to ride many pokemon along the lines of Tauros, Charizard, and even Sharpedo! This allows for access to new areas, new items, and especially faster travel.
 
Z-Moves
A brand new feature in the newest installments, Z-Moves allow your Pokémon to use extremely powerful and flashy moves once per battle, if they are holding a Z-Crystal (Waterium, Firium, Grassium, etc.). To add on to this, several Pokémon such as Snorlax and the Starter Pokémon Evolutions have Special Z-Crystals to use with their Signature Moves, described in the description of the Z-Crystal. Mega Evolution is still in the game, of course, but Z-Moves are much more prominent in these games.
 
Poké Pelago/Poké Refresh
These two new options in the X Menu are a great way to waste spend your time in Pokémon Sun and Moon and add even more content to the table. Poké Pelago is found in the X Menu, and you travel there via Charizard. Once there, you are greeted by Mohn, a man who wishes for all Pokémon who travel to Poké Pelago to be happy. Your first island on the Pelago is a bean generating island called Isle Abeens, which generates Poké Beans to feed your Pokémon in Pokémon Refresh, but you can also find Pokémon roaming the land who may or may not stay. The second Island is named Isle Aplenny, which replaces berry farms and lets you plant up to 18 Berries to grow. The third island is named Isle Aphun, where your Pokémon in your PC can go and search for treasure or just adventure in a cave! The fourth island is named Isle Evelup and it lets you send up to 18 Pokémon in your PC to increase a base stat, or gain experience, depending on how long you leave them there. The final island in this happy place is named Isle Avue, which you can leave up to 18 PC Pokémon to relax and raise their happiness. It also can help hatch your eggs when you have more than 5 to hatch, just not at the same rate. All of the islands have small Pokémon sprites that are registered in your PC, and you can interact with them as the Pokémon you've raised and caught.. Every island also has a basket or crate, in which you can leave Poké Beans that will give off positive effects to the island and it's inhabitants. Poké Refresh is an upgraded version of Poké-Amie, which you can play with your Pokémon and feed them Poké Beans, the replacements for Poké Puffs. Raising your Pokémon's happiness and feeding them Poké Beans will give many positive effects which are yours to discover!
 
Cons: The removal of HM Discs
Though it can be seen as a good addition, the removal of HM Discs also has its downsides, such as; What happens to the moves now? As of now, all of the previous HM moves, such as Surf and Fly, have been completely removed from the game. The moves could be regarded as a good way to fill up move space on Pokémon, and now that they are gone we have basically no counterparts, unless I am mistaken.
 
Post-Game Leveling
Though it may just be me and my half-assed way of leveling Pokémon, getting through level 60 and up (Note that I am in fact past the Elite Four) seems to be a constant struggle of leaving my Lucky Egg with Pokémon I wish to level up or farming Rare Candies via. Poké Refresh which frankly isn't enjoyable at all. If this isn't the case for anyone else then please let me know so I can finally get past the silly farming nobody wishes to endure even though it is an RPG.
 
Final Thoughts: Pokémon Sun and Moon are both amazing games and will leave you either in tears or with a smile, with many laughs in between, depending on emotional capacities. All in all, these games are both personally amazing gifts from Nintendo which I will cherish forever and ever. Everybody will have their differing opinions and will certainly sometimes disagree with mine, but alas, this is a Game Review, not an argument. If you decide to buy one of these games, I hope you enjoy it to the fullest. Alola, friends!

Go into detail on why the pros are pros, and cons are cons.

I'll give a brief history of my time with xG. One day I'll write a really long version of it.
 
I got CS:S in 2010, and I decided to play on the community servers like my friend always did in high school where he surfed all the time. I had no understanding of how surf worked, so I roamed from Zombie Escape to Jailbreak servers. HG back then (dunno about now) made it so T's couldn't talk ever, so I joined xG where T's actually had time to talk.
 
I met @Rabid @Rhododendron and a bunch of others who either left or got banned (shoutout to the 2010-2011 gang) and this was a server I would spend late nights on almost every single day. The server was always active late at night, and we played for so many hours non-stop. I must say, the community was so fun back then, and I got asked to be an admin level 2 when I signed up on the forums due to always messaging silence whenever rule breakers were on. I figure it was easier to just let me take care of the server since I spent so much time on the servers (back when we didn't have moderators and had 3 levels of admins instead). I was part of the reason @all chat wasn't enabled for lower level staff since I alongside other staff would use it for everything lol.
 
Anyways things were going good, I got promoted to Division leader of CS:S at the time, and shortly after co-leader. We were in the process of integrating to CS:GO which is what brought the whole Cyanide Gaming swatting me. For context, we used a jailbreak map from gamebanana that was made from a Cyanide member, and as we were really popular, our servers were a hit compared to theirs. They asked me to take the map down as the map was for their server, and I told them I'm happy to take it down for them (As we had other maps in our rotation and their map wasn't dependent on our success.) Anyways, Silence + Starbuck (Co-leader and developer at the time) both agreed to not take it down as it is a public map, and there's nothing wrong with us taking it. They started threatening our members with threats of DDoS on teamspeak, and so I banned the user with the reason "Faggot". Big mistake.
 
They called me on my cellphone, spoofed my mom's phone number and started threatening me, as they didn't believe that a co-leader wouldn't be able to remove a map (I didn't have any access to anything aside from forums, kinda similar to now but I have way more freedom and can get access to things I personally work on) so they gave me a time limit to swat me. I didn't know what swatting was back in 2012 (I was 17 at the time) so I just hung up on them. A little back and forth later, I eventually get police get called to my old location, and then they follow up to my mom's house, and then they call my dad's house and come to my dad's and ask me what's going on. Apparently these guys spoofed my number from Skype or a Google service and called my local police saying I have a hostage, made a gunshot noise and hung up on them.
 
I left xG shortly after, returned for a bit under the alias Link before some conflict with the higherups at the time which led to my decision to leave and only rejoin recently after patching things up with Silence/Rhodo.
 
I'm happy to be back as I've been with xG on and off since near its birth, and it's like my second home. I was always upset when I was gone to see xG going downhill from members not giving a shit but complaining with 0 resolutions, and with how good our staff are this time around, xG is only going to keep getting better and better.
 
Random Tidbits:

Rabid got banned so many times, and whenever he got unbanned I got blamed for it (despite being one of the few to never vouch for him in the past)
We banned a pedophile
A guy named Soiarn (aka soysauce) was awful
I hate duplolas
Arthman (ex minecraft div leader/french guy) got gangbanged in Minecraft PVP arena by Ruki, Rabid and myself, and claimed he never cheated. We eventually killed him after pinning him to a corner of a pond with 3 people just shooting him with arrows, and got his diamond armor with +5 enchants with 4-6 seperate enchants on each item.
He had an Enderman farm built in the End (this was a day into the server, and he had built it with oscar with Creative mode)
Klure used to be Hudson Jr.
