Ever think that maybe they don't want to -1 so they simply remain neutral?

Uh. Staying neutral and debating my -1 for now. Bitching and complaining about how nobody is +1'ing is not a way to get into the clan. It just shows me how immature you are.

I wouldn't have an issue with mods not having perm if we could rethink how we do our promotions. Casey mentioned a few people in those messages to me that he would trust with perm powers. In my opinion, those are the people who should be getting admin.
 
We also need to start demoting more, please. I'm not saying for no reason. Sure, if they're active and they're doing a great job, keep them. I'm talking about a select few who STILL don't know commands, and ask moderators for help.
 
I'm not talking about judgment and asking for a "hey, what do you think?". I'm talking about stuff like "Hey, how long is a week ban?" And "How do I slay outside of admin menu?" Shit that admins should know, and they still don't. I mentioned a few to Ohstop already, and he should know my personal opinion. Maybe the issue isn't mods having perm powers. It may just be that I feel the higher ups aren't doing the best with promo/demos. (Sometimes it's like they don't even exist. Kappa.)
 
@Ohstopyou @metalslug53 @Moosty @Rejects
You guys do your jobs very well, (and I appreciate you guys a ton) but maybe there can be a small change in how you guys think about our ranking system.
 
EDIT: obligatory "I'm on my phone. Excuse the formatting."

You guys are thinking about this too hard and are putting too much thought into the what ifs and what could happen instead of the logical solutions, i see literally no reason for a mod to not being able to perm if they can just type 999999999999999999999 and tell others to perm. if they fuck up, they fuck up but it's a 2 second fix. this goes the same for admins. Also there's no reason to add another rank, especially since we already have

Ya dude cause you being afraid of black people triggers your racism by making a poll that says "who's crazier blacks or whites" then justifying it with putting a both option, Doesn't matter what skin color people are who shoot up schools, or attempt to shoot them up. They are severely damaged in the head. Not due to their skin color. HOLY SHIT YOU'RE FUCKING STUPID.

So basically, our mod structure would look like:
 
xG: PM (Probationary Mod)
xG: M (Moderator)
xG: A (Admin)
xG: DM (Division Manager)
xG: DL (Division Leader)
 
I....actually like this. A lot.
 
It gives our seasoned mods more to work with and gives the newbies incentive to get out of the probationary period. I vote that if we DO go ahead and set this up, we should set the probationary period to be no less than 30 days (Roughly 2 Promo Demos).

hahaha this was funny

Out of these, I'd say to keep Wheatley, The Rock, Joker, Pacman, and Phoenix (and use bone's suggestion :^)

Keep in mind guys, while I personally love extra maps and bosses on Hale, the more crap we have, the more newcomers have to download. Have you ever tried to join a server that takes 15+ mins to download and you eventually just give up? I believe that's what our DLs are trying to avoid, here. If you want extra bosses, maybe suggest a few to get rid of so the entire file size for Hale isn't like 18 million gigs.

I agree completely.
 
Not a Hale regular, can't help you out, there. However, it's been on my mind for a very long time that we should remove PlayPoints. If anything, we can add Warcraft like @kbraszzz has previously mentioned to me. Bosses using 520 speed should probably be a huge no, yet no rules have been put in place to remove the perks on bosses. Removing PlayPoints entirely would give the entire server a new feel, plus soldier, pyro, and a few other classes would actually be viable as damage-dealers.
 
@HaleRegulars what do you think?

I'd -1 on bringing back old Blitz but definitely would love to see papyrus, along with these other bosses added in! It might be best to start to update some of our bosses not by just editing them(because that's a buttload of stuff to do and probably would still get neglected in the end) but possibly get rid of our less popular bosses and replace them with a few of these. I've only seen a majority of bosses get used half the time I'm on hale(most have 520, hyper heavy or blitz), and seeing the same ones over and over again gets old real quick. Which could be a reason why less people are coming on our vsh/ff2 server?

Honestly, Hale isn't supposed to be easy to kill, the bosses don't need nerfing, all you need to do is actually work as a team instead of running around as barrels hiding in corners.
 
1. In terms of Blitzkrieg, it would be nice to have his old theme back but he needs no further changes.
2. Knuckles, Miku, Shadow & Herobrine are not actually overpowered, they just use class specific perks to assist them.
3. Mann co. HQ is actually a half decent map, so why remove it?
4. MLG Sniper is supposed to be loud, have you never watched MLG remixes on YouTube?
5. Major Crits was incredibly oversized and glitched in maps, which is why it was removed.
 
 
Also, you should probably attach links to the bosses you want to be added, it'd increase your chances of getting it into the game. (Implying people do want them in the game that is, and if that boss doesn't exist then sorry, you won't get it added.)

wtf is with these kids and undertale?

I love memes.

In the end you kill your companion

-1 literally came out of nowhere. You come out of the blue and expect to get back in immediately? lol
A: 0/10
M: 8/10

-1 no, too soon.

Well,
 
About 1 year ago, around the holidays, I had planned to give you guys a Christmas present before I left.
However, things didn't work out that way, and the map just got put off to the side for a long time.
 
Over the past few months I have been working on it bit-by-bit, whenever I could get around to doing something with Hammer, to bring this map up to a publishable standard - to share with everyone.
 
Why?
 
It's because when I got back into TF2 in 2012, I started looking into playing on custom servers. Nintendo themed maps were the most interesting to me at the time, so I searched for servers using maps based on a Pokemon game.
 
I typed <<Pokemon>> into the filter dialogue, and I scrolled down the list looking at the player count.
Most of the servers were empty or had too little a number of people on it; however, near the bottom of the list, there it was, [xG] Pokemon Trade Centre 30/32.
 
Upon joining this server, I was met with interesting people whom were regulars, and over time I kept coming back because it was an exciting experience being able to play something that was something other than vanilla - this also introduced me to the trading aspects of the game that brought me interesting amounts of profit. Needless to say, this server is also what introduced me to xG as a whole - eventually using the /servers command that led me to Nintendo64tress/TGH where I encountered even more interesting people.
 
I made this re-touch of a map as a personal -thank you- to this community, but, most importantly, it is a gift. The original map that was done by Frewie was cut off in Beta 3 as "finished", yet there were a number of things that needed to be addressed/fixed; therefor, I thought this was a good idea (back in October of 2014).
 
**There is a 'readme' in the .zip archive that will list the details of what is different or the same with this map from the other map**

If something goes wrong, just say something. I tried to make this a smooth and simple presentation, but; then again, I'm just a person that's capable of mistakes like everyone else.

Please don't post porn on the forums. You don't realize how easily you can lose us ad revenue. No clue why you thought posting the spray was a good idea. You should've just pm'd it to a DL or something.

what pisses me off here the most is that the guy obviously knew it was hot, he says repeatedly he got it from his "close friend"

There's a reason trade windows have a thing at the top that tell you if the person you are trading has a similar name to someone else =/
 
but hey, with escrow, this wont happen amiright?!
