SuperMaddud

I guess it's my time to shine.
Before I start, I'd to let you guys know that activity and ability to play JB correctly does NOT mean someone is fit for moderator. If that were the case we'd promote everyone who's been on for a decent while and knows how to play.
ScottNi is definitely a special case in xG. He's a generally fun person in most cases but can also show signs of immaturity or just not being ready. Through this TEDTalk writing I will explain the three things you should keep in mind about Scott before coming to a real decision, and maybe I can change some points of view. Firstly, we'd have to talk about Scott's impact on the community, we'd have to talk about his maturity, and his readiness to handle leadership. Scott has the potential to be a great staff member but does not clearly present it.
To start us off, Scott is usually an enjoyable person. There hasn't been major troubles with him since Goldfish. But even coming from me, Scott has some serious issues with goldfish and did not show even the slightest bit of kindness when around him. Scott plays a lot of 10mans but in the case when it gets toxic, he often contributes to the toxicity rather than helping. While he usually doesn't start the problems, he sure doesn't fix them and a lot of the times causes them to continue further and build up more toxicity. Scott has made friends with the majority of the community as well as joining in on memes, them being annoying or not. Scott has definitely shown his involvement with the community, but not his commitment.
Scott has issues with maturity. He doesn't showcase his best behavior and often has problems with certain members. He also doesn't react kindly to random people who don't like him. Scott has shown that one of his major weaknesses is his immaturity and while there are attempts to improve, nothing is achieved. Scott also doesn't seem to own up to his mistakes and instead tries to play it off or just make an excuse. When receiving criticism, Scott often pulls the hypocrisy card or shifts blame. This minecraft stuff that's been going on shouldn't be disregarded since it is key evidence displaying Scott's personality. If he acts this way on other servers chances are he's not going to put on a mask on xG. I assume we wouldn't encourage fake personalities solely on our servers while also representing the xG community outside and being intolerable. Scott needs to improve on his overall maturity and how he acts around the public of our servers.
Donald McGannon, a broadcasting industry executive in the mid 1900's, once said "Leadership is an action, not a postion". This is a perfect example to use here since it seems like Scott doesn't have much interest in moderating servers, but more for the position you stand in. I'm not saying he is power hungry or would abuse, the problem here is that I've seen too many of these examples where someone is just tired of getting freekilled and being too lazy to get evidence. Another issue here is that due to either his wardening skills, his voice, or his overall personality, it doesn't seem like the semi-new community likes him much. With the moderator position you will get less disrespect and can act on the people who don't like you, which is not at all what it's about. Moderating is about leadership and readiness to voluntarily commit your devotion to the community. The willingness and eagerness to help out when needed is what it's about. The ability to not play, but moderate carefully when needed. I just don't think Scott shows visible signs that he is ready.
In conclusion, Scott hasn't shown enough maturity or readiness to be a moderator in the community. He may have a decent reputation in the clan but just doesn't show the leadership skills or the maturity to join us in the roster yet. I believe Scott will one day soon be ready but for now he just hasn't got it in him. One day Scott could make a great moderator and he definitely has the potential but just overall does not show enough that we can see. I will not be +1ing this moderator application due to the fact that Scott does know clearly present his potential to be a moderator.
Unfortunately, a "neutral" does nothing and gets nothing done. In this case I am going to have to go with a -1. Scott's overall maturity and presented moderator-friendly skills do not convince me that he is ready to join the CS:GO XenoGamer staff roster.
-1 for mod
-1 for probationary mod. I don't feel like probationary mod is the way to go. I believe someone should apply when they are truly ready to join the staff as a full mod and shouldn't have to prove themselves worthy or whatever.

+1 I was in the server at the time and got Jaydow to come into the server, but Sniipz stopped freekilling right when he joined.

not mad -1

Why did you leave me bb

hey qt, missed you

S'uh dude

hey cutie

Hiya, I'm back again, for those of you who know me I'm SuperMaddud and I used to be active a while ago. I wont be as active as I used to be, but it would be nice to spend some time around here from time to time, and play some games with you.
So hi.

hey guy

sup retard

welcome back chief, good to see ya around again

Sheeeeiiiiiiiiitt sup dude
Minecraft DL is occupied so we dont need you anymore sorry

Hey bb girl ❤️

Hiya, I'm back again, for those of you who know me I'm SuperMaddud and I used to be active a while ago. I wont be as active as I used to be, but it would be nice to spend some time around here from time to time, and play some games with you.
So hi.

I've felt the same way for many years, but honestly we've had one good spawn in the past 6 years in xG, and that's because ruki, supermaddud, klure, jaydow, jubens, hannah and myself spent over a week working on it and constantly tweaking it so it looks aesthetically pleasing. (It also helped that ruki, supermaddud and klure are super creative).
I'm honestly down to buy spawns that we can tweak since it will take a long time to build aesthetically pleasing spawns, and everytime we trust members to build a spawn, we just get meme'd about how bad it looks.

I'll PM you the spawn for hub, towny and skyzone that I'm thinking of and I'll be doing all the payments myself so it's not an issue.

MC NAME: TheRealBrian
POSITION WANTED: Builder / Moderator
WHAT CAN YOU BRING TO THE DIVISION TO HELP: Started playing on the old Minecraft server, and every iteration of it afterwards. Even managed the Minecraft server for a little bit. I build in minecraft in my freetime, and play semi-regularly. 
COMMENTS: Contact me on discord if you need a refresher on who I am.
 

I'm talking look wise. I can't make stuff look good, I'm not creative.
I know very well how to world edit..
 

Hey guys! Arthman here.
I've heard that the MC server went under and well... that doesn't fly with me. I've asked Aegean and he's allowed me to do so.
Let me begin by introducing myself:
I'm the former Div Leader for the MC division, years ago. I ran a multi-verse server for xG where every map had different mods on it.
I offered Aegean to set up a play server on my side to build it before pushing it live, and he's agreed to look into this with me.
I was wondering what do you guys want server wise!
Please feel free to drop down suggestions and then, when I have enough, I'll run a poll!

RIP Caleb, he fought For Honor, and died like a little bitch.

Added an AFK kicker, meaning if you are idle for more than 6 minutes you are kicked. This has been implemented because of reports of certain users exploiting mcmmo and going idle on the server for ages, and getting lots of points on their acrobatics, through different methods.
 
 
Also, some towns still have 0 money in their bank, so please could @Klure, @Egossi, and @BlankuChan put some money into your town bank because after today I will be turning on the taxes again.

Coded up a PermissionsEx Web Panel for managing permissions. Since we moved it to MySQL this will make adjustments way easier :)
 
Message me on Steam if you need access!
 

Hi, due to the economy plugin changing, towns and nations lost their money. I've turned off towns and nations getting destroyed if they dont have any money in their bank for now, but please note that it will be turned back on in a few days. You must put some money into your town bank. Later on I'll fully refund the mayors the amount that the town used to have in the bank, but the mayors should put this money into the town bank. Thank you.

Cause it teleports you around when you eat it, meaning you could potentially teleport into a place you shouldn't be.
