What are the flaws with xG?
 
1. No one wants to do anything themselves to better xG, it's all about what they can get in return.
I'll explain. There has been nothing innovative in XenoGamers that people implement to XenoGamers, or new ideas that people just do for the betterment.
Here's an easy example.
Community Nights - Super easy to do, no one has the initiative to do it. The idea that Rpgs had thought of that him and I implemented was every week we choose a random server to go on, and invite a group of people, invite them to TS and tell their friends about it, and I'd be giving away free credits.
Did everyone get credits? No. Did everyone have fun? Yes. Did people meet new people? Yes.
This is the biggest problem since when I was Co-leader, not just me but we had people who actually cared about the community. Did I have to do community night? Absolutely not, I coulda played games I actually wanted, but this was planned to be a weekly thing but when I left, I didn't think people would think of excuses to not keep Community Night going. There is no fucking reason to not do it every week, since it's easy to get a few admins to administrate since they'll want to be there and have fun. You don't need some "permission" from a co-leader or leader to do this, just tell your friends and post a thread. You don't even need to give out credits, just give out a reason for members to meet staff and each other, and just enjoy servers that might not be played so often.
Tl;Dr = Community nights are easy but staff or people who "care" about the community don't want to do it because they personally have nothing to gain.
 
2. Staff don't talk to each other well, and forums are not regulated well.
There's been so many times where staff disagreed with something a higher up has changed, and either the lower staff wouldn't implement this rule which would cause huge confusion over servers, or they would just be pissed about it. This is a gaming community, this shit should not be happening in such a developed community. Staff should ALL be discussed for the most part for new rules that might have dispute over it. Why are Divs implementing rules that admins and mods don't agree with? Easiest example was the dumbass rule over staff having to be in teamspeak while they are in server, and they can't be muted. This was such a dumb rule, and on top of that staff were to be punished over such a rule. This shit should not be happening, discuss it with staff, post it on forums and get the communities opinion on such changes.
Tl;dr = Staff don't communicate well, and many disputes happen that shouldn't happen.
 
Forums not being updated is a 2 parter.
I. There are many rules (age wise, teamspeak being mandatory etc) that I myself put on as the rules. So many people get accepted into the clan without passing qualifications because
A) People who accept don't know the rules and just assume they know.
B) They like the person and don't care if they don't qualify 100%
If you want some of these rules changed, if you discussed with others, implement the change on the actual appropriate areas, and bold the change with a timestamp. This will avoid confusion and weed out the 13 year olds who never use their mic and get +1's from people who +1 everyone.
Tl;dr = Update and keep up your knowledge on the rules/guidelines of forums and applications.
 
II. The main threads like jobs of staff, which I wrote about every staff position except DM who wasn't there when I was Co-leader, should have been updated months ago. Why can't div's just add a little description to it to say what DM's are supposed to do? Do you think it's stickied to remind people who I am? No, it's thread has an actual purpose, if you're staff, act like it.
Another part to this, is that no one bothers to make helpful threads for new members, or has any new ideas to get the community involved. The forums have huge amounts of traffic every day, why not take advantage of it? The sticky threads should not be things that are over a year old and nothing more.
Tl;dr = Update forums with current stuff, sticky important matters.
 
There is much more to this I can add that I've seen this past year as a non-member, and I'll add to this later after thinking of how to word them.

I agree with all of this. Especially 2 and 3. I've had problems where I'm in server and I punish for such and such but didn't do it in such a way that apparently a DM or something had said "had to be done" on some forum thread that I never read. Then because I didn't know this I was getting pissed at just because I never read one article and rules weren't updated or staff wasn't told of updated rules. (I'm planning on writing a comprehensive new MOTD server and forum wide for COs and DLs to look at and, if needed, can use.) Also, the roster gets so outdated I never know who is in or out. And I'm also tired of having little kids on. Age limit definitely needs to be enforced.

Ban the furries just as they're banned from the zoos!

Hello xG it's been a while! But I'm here to march us out of the hole we've dug ourselves into.
 
First off i would like to introduce my self to some of those who might not know me. The name is Rabid I've been around xG for around 3 years now. I've been here during the ups and the downs (Serbians co-leading) Lots has happened over these years and i can say we are in the darkest depths we've been in. Have no fear I rabid am here to lead us out! i will bring xG back to it's shining glory if you vote me as co-leader.
 
Some of the things that i have planned for xG
 
Community nights | We have had these in the past lead by Rpgeesus, These have failed very badly before but! I have good ideas to make these much more interactive for the community members to enjoy!
 
Disrespecting and the clan | We have had many posts of disrespecting within the clan ranks over the year, But i have the solution to fix this! take a second and listen how. Target the groups that cause the most ruckus @bronies @furries By eliminating these two groups of people we can move forward as a mature gaming group and look forward to a right future!
 
Eradicate everything! | By eradicating everything i mean get rid of the mods and admins and start by fresh look for people who will actually commit and help this community grow not just people who are active in the servers but are looking out of the clans best interest. Also get rid of @@serbiansnaga
 
Well there you go xG just a few upcoming things that will happen if i'm the next Co-leader.

How exactly does banning him and still not contacting anyone remove that liability?
 
he no longer has the ability to make the threats on our forums, and I also believe he was told the only way to get un-banned was to provide proof of him having spoke to a counselor, not entirely sure on the second part.

Cool.

No.
