Anyone who quotes something from the MotD Rules should be able to back-up whatever they say Before acting upon whatever it is they are doing/saying. Mod/Admin/Div Manager/Div, it doesn't matter, if you're going to quote something and say it's a rule, you better be 100% sure that it is a rule and be prepared to provide evidence. All in all, if you are unsure and you are having an argument in Admin Chat, bring it to a Div Manager or Div Leader, or better yet, co-operate on TeamSpeak and look at the MotD Rules. If it's not in there, you should come up with a solution that you both are happy with, not just one over the other. Also, I'm mentioning Aaron so that he is aware that it was a valid and justified order. As Chrono said, it's probably unfair to the T outside of the cells, but it's either that or tell that One T to freeze (odds are that T will keep on goin' fer it, but you can atleast say you tried). - Dat guy, Forest

It isn't and wasn't made up. There was a discussion about whether or not it should be in the MotD Rules a while back, and in fact @@MineCrack was the one to post a thread on whether or not it should be removed. It was never a made up rule, it was in there, it was just removed due to the amount of people saying it shouldn't be implemented. Only now, CTs don't have to ASK to do so. (The two new MOTD rules..) I wouldn't be going full try-hard on this, if it weren't for the fact that CTs who stray away don't even give the courtesy of saying what they're doing. I almost Never see a CT say in either Team or Public chat that they're going to look for Rebels, and it's a frequent thing nowadays that leads to a freeslay or just confusion in general.

How about adding a betting system on who survives the round? What I mean is, being able to bet whether the CT team wins, or the T team wins. Harder to exploit, and much more obvious if it Is being exploited.

This thread is pertaining to and ONLY to the unbanning of players from Wolven Dominion. It is in no way affiliated with any of the Higher-Ups of WD.

First off, before I delve further into this, I would like everyone to know that there has been a misunderstanding in terms of the situation between Xeno Gamers and Wolven Dominion. Due to this misunderstanding, several players of WD have been permanently banned without question from our servers. Of course, this is all some-what old news and happened a while back, but I would still like to explain so that everyone may get a sense on what has been going on. What started off as an ex-member addressing the situation of plagiarism regarding our overall setup of our Forums/Ranks to that of Wolven Dominion's, turned into a complete and utter nightmare almost immediately. During this time, a Higher-Up from Wolven Dominion had attempted to come to terms with us, and ended up being treated in a very hostile way. Things didn't go well, and the thread was closed. Shortly afterward, a message was sent that "(Anonymous) kinda declared war on xg", in which our Higher-Ups acted upon it and deemed it a threat. During this time, there had been a large misunderstanding, and the words used in the so-called "threat" were highly over exaggerated. Recently, we have gotten together and discussed with the Co-Leader of Wolven Dominion and have cleared up the confusion that this was NOT what was intended. It was severely misinterpreted, and was spoken through the voice of another individual whom was not part of the discussion during the time. At this point, WD wishes to reach a mutual agreement with xG; one that will hopefully end all of the spite and hatred going on between our clan/community and theirs. Now, getting to what we hope to achieve in this thread. A few others, as well as myself, have discussed the problem at hand and would like to know how the Community feels toward this before acting upon it or doing anything else of the sort. We would like to know if you feel that players from WD should be openly accepted on our servers. This also includes protection from aggressive behaviour as well as harassment. This thread is to be taken seriously Any posts that are either intended to flame or troll will be completely disregarded and the post will be removed, depending on the severity of it. Do not post for the sake of posting, we want your honest opinion. We are also not asking your opinion on the Leader of WD, nor anything to do with said Leader or any of their previous or current actions. TL;DR - This is a poll that involves a mutual agreement between xG and WD, in which their players are free to play on our servers, and any players whom were banned for being affiliated with WD will be unbanned. When picking either Yes/No, please provide a post with it giving your reasons as to why you think they should/should not be allowed on the servers. Do not just pick Yes or No with no reasoning. We will be taking each and everyone's opinion into consideration when finalizing an overall verdict. Exception of Unbanning: Players who were banned Prior to the banning of the Wolven Dominion steam group will NOT be eligible for an unban. This is due to their past offences and will not be included in an unbanning. Important: Make sure to include either "Yes" or "No" in your post, so that I may disregard any votes that do not have an opinion/reasoning attached! .

If a T is out of there cell during the time you say "Out of Cell, Rebel".. Then does that not make anyone out of their cell, well, a Rebel? Whoever said that is clearly in the wrong, as that's like saying any T in [insert area] is a Rebel, which is a perfectly valid order. However; if the T manages to open the cells before you say "Out of Cell, Rebel" or any other order, then they are perfectly safe as it would now be a Freeday.

Holy hell, please, mention me more guys :confused: @@Chrono @@ItsAaron Pertaining to "rebel hunting": There is currently a rule in the MotD Rules that states "CTs must be with Ts at all times" or more specifically, "If a CT is not actively involved in the day or near the Ts while the Warden is watching them, they will be slain or team banned." Therefore, the only reason to Ever leave the Ts, is if you saw a T rebel or if the Warden has instructed otherwise, no? Leaving the Ts at any point is clearly not being with Ts at all times, but if you saw a Rebel you must KoS, and if the Warden instructs you to leave or hunt for Rebels, you must follow said-orders, right? Pertaining to "LR rules": I agree with Aaron, isn't that just an example of Cheating? Why would we have a rule where No Cheating is Implied if it's only for one game in particular? After all, that game already as it is has it's own set of rules in the MotD Rules and even states in it's own rules that "... there will be no cheating or bunny hopping during a gun toss." I believe that what the No cheating rule is implying is this; "NO CHEATING IS IMPLIED (Advantage to T or CT, IE. Rocket Toss)"

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Happy birthday! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

I don't disagree with you there, but I never said it was allowed. I said the Staff Members online at the time may give their input on it. And just to clarify, the only reason that the rules differ from Mod to Admin is because there are currently no detailed rules of which appear in the MotD Rules for whatever it is was stated above, nor will they ever be implemented because they should not need to be. It is up to the current Staff Member(s) online during the time to come up with a solution/verdict (Remember, if there are multiple Staff Members on, be sure to discuss it over before coming to a solution!). Also, use a bit of common sense before acting out on something! I'll leave this thread open for any other questions anyone has or may have in the future. - Dat guy, Forest

Be aware that if you Are unbanned from CT, you will be on thin ice and will be given less leniency due to your past offences. Also know that if you get unbanned, you will not be given another chance if for some reason you are permanently CT banned again. I'm going to remain at a +/- 0 for the time being. I'll keep an eye on you whenever i'm on servers, you can hopefully expect my opinion in the next few days. - Dat guy, Forest

Judging by the sheer amount of negative vouches from the community, as well as the severity of the ban, it is decided that your request to be unbanned is #Denied and #Closed. For future reference, do not impersonate anyone who has made an impact on any community/clan as well as impersonate Another clan's tag, it'll never end well. In the future you may appeal for an unban, but meanwhile, take this time to think over what has happened and understand that it is not tolerable behaviour. ~ Forgotten in the Lost Woods

Which is exactly why a new Camping rule has been implemented into the new MotD Rules. Check out 'Camping' under Terminology.

Can't we just go back to the time when everyone played to have fun? A time when no one was out to get the other and trying to get the other slain. A time where when they got killed, they tipped their hat and said "Gg" (and or cussed them out jokingly) instead of complaining and trying their hardest to get that person slain? You know, we wouldn't need these rules if everyone didn't start picking at the rules and let things be, or if people didn't start loopholing everything out their ass. As Chrono and Gkoo said, it's not that difficult to understand.

Saw this coming as soon as I mentioned you, I won't lie. I know, I know, I'm contradicting myself. I'm trying to make it as fair as I can while also appealing to how everyone feels toward it. If majority feels that there should be No rule for Rebel Hunting at all, speak now or forever hold your peace. This thread just turned into a discussion, I want to know how everyone feels toward it.

You know better then to impersonate Anyone for that matter.. Impersonating both a highly known and respected player is one thing, but doing so with a fake HG tag just makes it worse. -1 for an unban.

Agreed, to a certain extent. If the vent only leads to One area, then you can put two and two together and assume that's where the Rebel will be. However; if it branches out to Multiple areas, you may not just go through because you no longer know where the T will be, and thus you are hunting under suspicion of a Rebel.

Glad you are taking it so lightly and in such a mature matter Warriors! It's not that you don't deserve it, it's just the timing couldn't have been at a worse time, y'know what I mean? I don't really play Minecraft, but that looks like a pretty damn legit spawn.
