also even though it is empty, giving a T a gun is still gunplanting because if they have autoswitch etc. they will be considered rebels because what you did and can get them freekilled.

if you cant type kill in console because you dont have 2 hands, just a suggestion bind a key on your keyboard to kill, something out of the way like o, p, [, ] and press it. or just press f10 and then enter since you would quit the game anyway, when you leave the server it makes you entirely vanish. you dont bait, you dont gunplant, you dont give a T a kill.

that's not a rule @c0ldwinds atleast not for the server. as for what the T decides he wants done for his LR is entirely up to him as long as it is fair on both sides. so if he says you must be frozen, then you must be frozen. (granted if he chooses s4s, deagle, and a person and he has first shot then that is considered unfair.) so as far as that goes, he should clearly define his rules before he chooses which CT he is playing against so as to not make it frozen when he sees that he gets first shot. the same concept applies to things like russian roulette where you like to make the CTs teleport into lasers to cheat the system. things like this are slay/potential bans (that increase) based on repeat offenses

I really really really really want to unbox an awp, so if you have CS:GO weapon cases you dont want, I will gladly take them off your hands and open them over time/do a giant unboxing, dupe guns I have will probably go into future give-aways (already have given out like 6 m4a4 griffin MW) also if you want any of my tf2 crates from way back in the old days let me know. :) @Snackbar @Forest @Duke @Lithium @Bleed @BleedsBrother @jubens45 @anyone else that might have cases they aren't going to open. none of this "you can have the case but if you open up (insert really nice/expensive gun here) then it's mine." no, i'm putting in the money for the keys so i'm going to keep whatever I open and potentially do giveaways/raffles.

Hey what's up hello. I'm like sit your pretty ass down as soon as you came in the door.

i'm house sitting at my brothers again, but when i did it last time i went to my homies for a lan after they got back, and he mistakenly packed up my 100ft ethernet cable, so I dont have it as of the moment and as such I can't set up my PC at his house, so i'm just gonna take it as a "vacation" message me on forums/steam if there are issues/questions, I should get them on my phone. thursday-saturday afternoon + work

skin sites dont instantly give you money, after a sale is made they hold it for a bit and take their fees out and then they will put the money on your account to withdraw at a later date, they are slightly more secure in that they back it incase someone does a chargeback, you get the money anyway and they will pursue the person. selling to someone you don't know personally/have a long standing trust outside of skin sites is always shady you never know what could happen, on either side as well since they could be iffy with you and how it all goes down between sending money/item first, chargeback etc.

I said almost all times, which means obviously some are instigated by him. they're not outdated. infact they are very relevant, if anything is outdated it's that they need to be increased, and our DM/DL/CLs need to moderate the forums more and just start deleting shitposts/bring back the /xg/ board but make it not "anonymous". so we can shitpost in peace. I can open and close any god damn thread that I see fit in my duty as a forum moderator to open/close. This is not a majority rules case, and as such I saw fit to close the "post your +1 or -1 only" thread under the note that a CL should open it if they see fit, since that thread really should never have been made. I can discuss snackbar's issues anywhere, I chose here because I was bringing up the lack of communication which is what it was about, and his decision to make the companion thread. there was no conversation with csgo higher ups as far as I'm concerned since I was not included, as a csgo higher up. and the slow down was about his attitude towards matsi in his constant need to change rules how he sees fit, and his making said companion thread. all of which was a legitimate justified comment. I never said it was cool, I don't like it. but it's the internet, and even though we allow 16 year olds in, all of our game servers are on M rated games meaning 17+ and as such you should expect the internet to be the internet. things you dont like or want to hear come up and people express themselves and their lifestyle a little more freely. actually you said you wanted him banned, and snackbar is preaching and demanding a permanent ban. read the thread yourself since you gave that advice. ;) as stated above, I closed what I saw fit to close. you would understand if you had a level head and were given the opportunity to be a DM/DL that some threads need closed and some dont. they didnt think it did, I did. I said I would delete the companion thread at the end of this since this is the real thread where debate should take place. I said I would delete posts that had no relevance/nothing to add. all of which are normal things and were actually also requested by you to have done in some of the threads about you. A post like this is the exact reason I said everyone should take a day away from the thread to chill out. Clearly you didn't read my post in it's entirety, and you didn't heed a very calm and friendly piece of advice.

making this second post only because I know several people already loaded that post above. I myself alone made the executive decision to close the other thread, and if another DM or DL has an issue with it, please do not change it, instead let the CLs decide if they want to re-open that, but remember we are not a "majority rules" type of place, we are a place based on evidence and debate. not simple yes or no votes. Feel free to message me anything you are concerned about regarding this issue or my post in general, just know that I will likely ask you if it is ok to screenshot/quote it by you if not you can remain anonymous as well, to further provide legitimate debate. I will try to get back to anyone as soon as possible.

OK. let's get started. First and foremost, I do not condone this thread at all. My major reason for that is that almost every single person posting in here giving a +1 has instigated so many different issues with matsi and in fact almost all the instances you use as proof (not counting the countdown thread by vector) are all started by you guys posting something derogatory, demeaning, rude, and just plain un-necessary towards matsi. Exhibit A: Phoenix made a moderator submission, matsi simply posted a quote of the appropriately deemed requirements to create one and said that it should be closed due to not meeting the requirements, instantly owl, vector, and various other staff members of CS:GO posted rude and hateful things basically telling matsi to fuck off. Meanwhile you turn around to Diversion's mod submission and owl posts that and demands a close and literally throws a hissy fit about when I re-open it even going to the point of insulting my ability as a DM. Secondly, just going to get this out of the way before I forget it, but this is a semi-unrelated note: Snackbar, you're a great guy and all but you need to chill the fuck out. You're doing great trying to help and all and it really is appreciated by me, but you're taking things too fast. You banned him on teamspeak "for shits and giggles all in good fun" you don't do that to someone unless you are good friends with them. You push all these rule changes that are discussed by you and 2 others that agree with you at 3am in teamspeak, with no regard for a discussion prior to making it official without messaging the rest of the higher ups in the division as well as those rules push away from the unified set of rules that we tried very hard to make happen. yes game specific rules will be division specific but now you are making a steam name global rule a division specific thing, going so far as to try and control what people make their steam name "must be a name you are easily recognized as such as your forum name or a name you frequently use" if I decide I wanted to go by AlphaOmega tonight nobody would recognize me at first, as well as if asked I would present my forum name. Next, there is a blatant exclusion of communication the very opposite is happening in regards to that which @Rhododendron was all for trying to eliminate and then he too becomes guilty of his old habit of talking to one person about something and making a change: I have not once been messaged by snackbar with who he wants to promote/demote since he was given the opportunity as DM, nor has he responded to my private message I made with him and bleed specifically for discussing between us promo demo and other future changes we would be considering doing (obviously they would then be brought into a discussion on the csgo forums). even now going so far as to post promo/demo at 3am because he wants to do it when it is a CL job, and he creates his own promo/demo without consult. the reason it is a CL job is because they can then cross check it. when you post it, there is no going back on it. while I agree the whole set of CS:GO staff right now is good at their job, I can tell you for a god damn fact a couple people got promoted because they are your friends while you wouldnt consider some others because you aren't friends and always talking even though they are just as deserving of staff. Third, there was supposedly a discussion between tf2 higher ups, csgo higher ups, and silence. I was not included so it clearly did not include all csgo higher ups, bleed probably wasnt, and since when do we banish someone from a division? no. if you really dont like the guy, just fucking ignore him. Beastiality is not a federal law, it may be a state law, but we have to go by federal since that is the do all tell all for anyone in the US as a US based community if you want to bring "felonies" into it. tarin sexually idolized and sent dick pics to a 14 year old boy which has been presented proof of, that is a federal felony. Beastiality is not a felony according to federal law, and as such could not be used. infact if you wanted to use some state laws, there are some that limit what you can and cannot have sex with, as stated by matsi florida it has to be bigger than a porcupine. No he should not be saying these things in public but it is his life and his sexual interests, they dont do anything to you, I could see a abuse report for conduct unbecoming of a staff member as that is immature and not the "better" thing to be doing, and I would gladly give a + 1 to that, but a removal of member? no. wanting him to be permanently banned? absolutely not. Don't get me wrong, I am not friends with the guy, even if I was like with the vector case, I fought for iggy too and I am not afraid to turn around and ban a friend when they fuck up. See: rabid and vector having numerous bans from me. forum and game and teamspeak. But if you want to do something to this scale then there better be a legitimate reason, which is why when snackbar said he was thinking about posting one I told him I would give it a - 1 and that I believed it would be incorrect to post in the first place for some of the reasons listed above. after you get time to read over this and simmer, I will post a follow up to any questions/legitimate posts in response to this. I will also be closing the "Companion Thread" as this is not a "majority vote" kind of thing, this is a CL decision and they will make it by going over all the statements and evidence provided in the thread, I will not be deleting that thread like I should until after the resolution of this issue is met, If you cannot give a reason to your vouch, then you shouldn't be posting it anyway, as well as periodically as I fade in and out of being home because of my life and shit, I will be going through this and deleting useless/stupid posts. please refrain from posting multiple times because you are debating with multiple people as well as try to be as clear as possible in your posts. just to re-iterate, snackbar you need to chill out a bit and take a step back. everyone posting needs to make legitimate posts legitimately debating and give a reason behind a vouch. if you want to use laws as a form of back up, use federal and not state laws. and everyone should probably take a day away from this thread before they post anything else to give time for their minds to settle, psychologically you guys are too into the hype of a new thread getting so big and everyone should chill out.

+1 a:8 m:8

+1 a:7 m:8 they mean activity and maturity, our standards of rating someone that are required when providing a legitimate and accepted vouch in member submissions to count towards your requirements.

+1 used to be a great mod work on activity though!

re-opening for everyone to give an opinion on this app only, if you're gonna shit talk someone who points out that phoenix did not meet the standards for an application because he is your friend, then don't you dare turn around and start putting those same things matsi said in a different app because you aren't bffs in teamspeak all day doing 10 mans with him.

-1 a: 0 less than penguin! m: 3 people shouldn't be giving a +1 just because of being an old member when she doesn't even play on the servers, infact this exact same thing happened several times before, the only time she actually played on a server when she made an app was during darkrp time.

Unfortunately we have a 16+ age policy, and will have to decline your application. Sorry for the inconvenience

-1 makes weird noises

please keep saying things like that, it really shows me how incredibly mature you are and how over-qualified for a staff position you are.

IMO when it comes to choosing staff, you want quality over quantity like forest said, i'd rather have 5 really good staff members that can be on when they can, as opposed to 25 really shitty staff that are always on. you need to project a positive image from the staff by having them be great people, yes while we may not always be on the servers we do also still do a lot of behind the scenes stuff. bleed for instance works on the servers whenever he has a chance via local server to test plugins that he creates from scratch/edits in major ways, but he is also in his first year of college and life is always first before xg/games. if he wants to play comp in that ~45-1:30 he has before bed time or before the meal hall opens for dinner, then by all means he should play comp especially if the server seems fine at the time. myself I work long hours and have a very active life outside of xg, and I prefer to keep it that way, while i've made some great friends here that I can always talk to, I also have great friends in my real life that I actually see every day at work etc. all the while I spend my time taking care of the servers in ways besides policing them such as providing advice to other staff or members who have questions or concerns and browsing the forums, replying when i see a reply is necessary. while it may not seem like we do anything, you probably are only considering policing the servers to be doing something. and that in itself is your mistake
