Forest reacted to Thorax_ in Mona Pizza Community Challenge?
I fully agree with all of your concerns and thoughts about it being gross, embarrassing and just a not so great idea in general; however as always, @Forest swoops in to save the day with a great idea:
Having a contest where people are only singing the Mona Pizza song (or even something else) seems like a much better option and I am totally for it.
I'll make a new thread about this if Forest's post gains at least 5 positive ratings.

Forest got a reaction from Chrono in Mona Pizza Community Challenge?
I'm all for community challenges, but this isn't a challenge so much as it is humiliation (basically the intention) which is what makes it perfect as a "free pass" for an unban.
Maybe start with something smaller and more manageable, like a singing challenge (audio only)? I doubt that anyone would want to make a public spectacle of themselves by choking down pizza while singing a song all captured on video.
Besides, if people want to do stupid things on camera (like lighting oneself on fire Silence), the best place to go for that is to our very own tinychat during get-togethers

Forest reacted to Aegean in RIP to one of our first members
Unfortunately, we are here to say goodbye to one of our own, TrollFace aka Asa. Trollface was one of the original members of the community and one of the first higher ups alongside Silence. We found out of his death a few days ago from his girlfriend, and we'd like to formally give our condolences on the forums. XenoGamers would not be where it is today, if it wasn't for him.
I wish his family and loved ones all the best, and remember to always show your appreciation to your friends and family cuz you never know when they might be gone.

I can do that.
Yeah, everything is still on the servers from the old website so nothing has been removed forever.

A new forum moderator position to correct grammatical errors such as the disgusting abomination above :^)
For real doe, what's happening with credits? I've been under a rock for the last several months, so if they were outright removed then disregard this question. But assuming they're still a thing, maybe some sort of plugin to spend em' in to increase a user's Credit balance (eg. mini-games)? Mind you, I have 0 knowledge in this field so I have no idea what is or isn't attainable

Forest reacted to Chrono in Nintendo Switch Accessories
the dock for you to play on tv is made to easily pop the switch in and out, but the only part that actually connects is the ports on bottom of switch so while it wobbles around in there when you put in/take out the screen can grind up on the plastic dock in front of it. he is saying to place those inside the dock when switch isn't there to provide a foam support that helps stop the screen from scratching up on the plastic when you put in and pull out.

Forest reacted to Chrono in XenoGamers History
Late 2011 early 2012 were the good ol days imo
Various reasons that I have posted in all these kinds of threads before, but back then everyone was pretty chill and didn't get incredibly salty over nonsensical shit. We were not a safe space. We had legends among us.

Forest reacted to Atamo in Hey
So, for those of you in the Minecraft division that don't already know me, I'm your new DM (alongside Kart).
I'm pretty easygoing as a person, but I don't take explicitness the best, not to say you can't swear around me, just maybe keep the jew jokes hush hush when I'm around:happy: :)
I'm going to be working hard along with @Amymaniac and @Kart to try and fix the problems with the Minecraft server, feel free to message me on Xeno or Discord with any questions or concerns.
Love, everyone's favorite Jew Atamo

Forest reacted to Aegean in The roles of staff in our servers and community
This stems from the 2 disputes that happened last week from the TF2 community but is still a good piece of discussion even by itself.
First of all, our servers are meant to be a place for everyone in our community and people who visit our servers to have fun. I'm going to try to break down what we used to do and what I feel is sometimes not reflected in our community anymore.
Whenever we were on CSS, CS:GO or TF2, (even before I was Co-leader) issues obviously occurred. Sometimes we had a free-killer on the server, or a guard + prisoner arguing etc. The role of the staff should be right away to fix the problem WHILE keeping the servers interests in mind.
If someone got freekilled, we would also message them after slaying; if we know it was a freekill (either via voice, all chat, or pm)
"Hey man, you got slayed cuz you freekilled X during this game. If you get too close to them, they are allowed to knife since you are baiting, so you freekilled. You're not getting banned, just wanted to let you know to be careful and read the rules"
This lets you not only resolve the problem and let the server know you are doing right by punishing them, but the person who broke the rules understands exactly what happens, and lets them have another go at our server without feeling alienated.
There are PLENTY of situations that you (as staff) are not there for, but still need to resolve to help out the server. You should always be willing to communicate with BOTH parties, and get a good compromise or to punish them fairly if you don't feel there's anything more you can do to resolve this in an easy manner. Ask them one at a time what the issue is, gag/mute one of them if they aren't letting the other talk, after hearing both their stories, ask witnesses or look at chat logs and see what's going on.
The whole point of us punishing a person in our servers (Not perm punishments) is for the SOLE reason that we want to reform them. We don't week ban people first offense, just so they never come back again. That's not the point of our mutes,gags,bans. It's to teach people that their (repeated) offenses aren't okay here, and that we want everyone to enjoy their time here.
TL;DR for people who want a simple explanation, staff are not ban-bots programmed to ban anyone and everyone out of line, it's to fix any issues that people are having, and even if someone has previous offenses, if you can resolve a problem without banning, and the server is happy, then you are doing the right thing. You are there to ensure people (including you) have fun in our servers, and that no one is trying to ruin it for others.
