    +1 if he changes his name back to what it used to be in the old days. Or even if he doesn't, why not because Tope and Topaz are not that far off from each other.

    Gee thanks Chrono, you're a real swell guy.

      Was a mod back in the old CSS servers in 2011/2012. Am interested in taking up the position again to help out in any way I can. I have many many hours on the old CSS servers, a good number of which as a mod. I also have experience as staff on other servers during my leave of absence.

      *@Aegean gave me permission to post early.*


  2. Wowee. Alright, just something to get out of the way @DepressedNeonNepp and @Red, this is not the time nor place to be doing this. This is a ban request, this thread is meant for members, staff, and the accused to discuss the situation. This is NOT the thread to post about petty squabbles. @DepressedNeonNepp, your first post, although reeking of disdain for him and not much else, was more than enough. You should have left it there.

    @Red Please stop engaging, at a certain point this looks equally bad for you. Focus on the thread where you may be banned thanks to behavior like this.

    tl;dr If you want to talk shit, go to steam messages. If this continues for too much longer it could end badly for the both of you.

    Lmao I can be apart of 2 communities if I want to just not member on both

    I just saw this. For the love of all that is holy in this world, stop posting stuff like this here.

    changing communities doesn't change the person. Work to better yourself otherwise other communities will say the same "asshole" things about your lust for a position of power.

    This. Absolutely this.

    To elaborate a bit, I don't personally think you are a terrible person. However, you did something worth reprimanding, and got scolded for it. Very few people, myself included, want to see someone leave for such a reason. Just keep your nose to the ground and work on building trust.

    However if you are dead-set on leaving, I do wish you luck on your travels.


  4. Oh shit, definitely a +1 from me. Knows rules, and besides being a memer, is a competent warden who gets stuff done. Anyone who has been playing JB recently has probably run into him, thanks to how active he is. Let's get this big boy member.

     


  5. Oldfag alert, but I joined xG originally back in 2011, and here I am again and am in my second year of college. The general demographics are highschool to early college/uni for the most part, and obviously most of the higher ups don't fit in that generally speaking.

  6. Let's his anger get the best of him at times, and can irritate some of the people on the servers. All of that being said, he honestly does try to follow the rules and can be fun to hang out with. I see no reason not to let him in, especially since it seems he wants to improve on his behavior.

    +1

     

    plus he is a huge nerdarino

    Who though tarping was a good idea. It ruins the game for new players and is like as mentioned roulette. The 7 min time is really good but still tarping is bad. Wardens who use tarps should stop its a cheap way to get some easy kills and dis encourages good guard and prisoner play. Guards just kill someone for either a misunderstanding, someones new, or your first reaction when someone says all ts jump is to jump. Tarping/contradicting orders should either be not allowed or not killable for.

    I will ignore the part where you contradicted yourself, which I assume was just bad grammar. To assess a few things. As long as the warden is competent, tarping is nothing like roulette. I can agree with you if they have a shit mic/heavy accent and do something cancerous as mentioned above. But if a warden says jumping is restricted, then tells you to complete climb, and you jump and die because you forgot, how is that like roulette? Roulette is random, this relies on your memory and ability to interpret orders.

    This is not specific to tarping, and happens all the time. If you want to make the notion it happens with more frequency, see my above point about memory.

    someones new

    This is the only thing I can agree might cause problems. But, I think most players have the maturity and ability to have seen it done once or twice, and learn from it. Hell, where do you think we all came from? If we left because of a tarp kill or two, than hardly anyone would even be in the community.

     What are you even talking about? The only time I can think this would apply is maybe in first reaction, last reaction. But even then, what do you think "First reaction jump!" is for?

    That being said, I do appreciate your input and willingness to post about it, even if we disagree.


  8. The main thing I have seen so far against tarping is how unfriendly it is to new players, and how difficult it can be when the warden has an accent/shit mic. I can pretty much agree with that. However I don't see that as a reason not to allow it atleast a little earlier, since waiting does not solve either of those problems.

    While I agree that tarping on the first order is pure unadulterated assholery, I think that allowing tarping earlier would benefit wardens who are able to pull it off well. Maybe 30 seconds, or even a full minute early. After all, 3 minutes goes painfully slow when you are warden and trying to keep the Ts alive/entertained to get to that point.

    But yeah, I can definitely see where a lot of you are coming from and the frustrations with shitty tarps.
     


  9. Hmm, perhaps tarp-based games like simon says should be allowed at an earlier time then? From then it should be treated like a map game and can only be done once every two-three rounds. I think that would be a nice compromise of having to wait, since I see maybe one warden, if that, a day play simon says because that is how often you have enough Ts by 7:00 to actually play it.

    I do see the issue of shit wardens abusing having an earlier time for tarps, but when you have a bunch of unruly Ts it can be an indispensable tool to thin the herd early without doing first reaction, last reaction.


  10. Thought I would put this together to see what the general consensus on tarping is.

     

     

    Personally, I think waiting till 7 to tarp kind of defeats the point, since most Ts have already died or rebelled by then. Not much fun to play simon says when you just have three Ts left standing when you start.


  11. Seafood is best food, but more specifically Catfish (fried) and Swordfish (Grilled) are the fuckin' bomb. Of course Crab is way up there too. 

    Since I can't eat that every day(or even month lol), a good waffle and bacon at any time of day/night is best.


  12. Just now, MJP said:

    This isn’t a place to talk about that my guy. If you have a problem with him or want to inform him then I would just msg him on discord or steam since this is also cluttering.

    This is not the place for spamming forum posts, my guy. As well, I did give my honest opinion from what I have seen of his presence on the forum. It had adequate bearing on the situation, so I posted it. 

    I will just leave it at that, as I do not really see a need to argue here.


  13. Never met you, but just a quick bit of looking about the forums and I found your mod application which was closed due to lack of forum posts. Nothing bad in and of itself, trust me people do it all the time. However, pretty quickly after that was closed you started posting left and right, and like this topic most of them lacked actual substance. It seems apparent, to me anyway, that you are spamming to get yourself up to the amount of forum posts required to apply for mod.

    Please, stop. You are only increasing the odds that your app will get -1ed into oblivion for this sort of behavior. Just take your time, fifty forum posts can go quickly even without spamming. With the exception of joke/meme threads, try to make sure your posts actually have substance and are contributing to the community.

    With that said, I doubt you are a bad person, you are just being impatient. Anyway, hope things work out for you.


  14. If I am remembering correctly, you were one of two or three people that decided to mass freekill nearly the entire T team when they were stacked/lined up throughout yesterday. I remember it was one after another for a few rounds in a row, and I am pretty sure you were one of them. @BullseyeX will need to confirm this, but if that is the case than you should absolutely never have your CT rights restored, there are consequences for your actions.


  15. Honestly, going to have to give a solid -1 here. I would have stayed neutral but judging by what @ScottNi posted, he lied about his amount of hours in his application. I wish I could say his behavior in the servers redeem him, but sadly that is not the case. I only decided to put my two-cents in on the off chance that @Lithium does not close this down.

    Also I know people can sound younger than they are, butttt

    Yeah, I agree with that.


    A: what activity?

  16. I am of the mindset that you tend to be a shit-disturber anytime @Dannypicacho is on the server. You also need to respect the mods and admins (including Danny) a bit more than you do. Oddly enough you behave better when there are no mods/admins you are aware of are on. As well, do not bring up drama like this in the servers when we are just trying to play.

    To sum it up, quit the bullshit with Danny and respect the staff and I am confident in this +1 I am giving you. Please don't make me regret it.

      Was an oldfag member/mod back in 2011/2012, and looking to be apart of a community that plays together once more. I have been playing jailbreak and minigames pretty regularly, and I am happy to see how things have progressed since I was gone. Hope to become good friends with the lot of you!
