  1. 2. Find a way to have an intro screen or something nice, or just motd coming up all the time (not the broken steaming pantload it always has been) (Sept 20) Not completed

    4. Update LR (Maybe add a new game, or a few...) (Sept 30) Not completed

    2. Intro screen, do you mean overlay? an MOTD? an MOTD window always pops up for me. Though its an ad, its still a MOTD.

    4. Same thing as hub. What do you want.


  2. When I look to join a css server its empty, not something I can really help. I know I can sit in there and wait for people, but I have don't have patience to be waiting in a lobby for an hour for people to get on. When the server is populated, I hop on right away.

    10/10 mentality will get servers populated.

     

    Edit:

    This isn't just your mentality, its the community as a whole. No one wants to be the first person on, so no one goes on. Its one reason I don't think this will be successful.


  3. Look i know its not feasible to remove ads at beginning, but it really does chase new people away. maybe ads can be made to play at map changes only and not just upon join somehow?

     

    otherwise, good list. does warden plugin use voice again or does it still require !w?

    The voice interface for voicehook was removed with an update a long time ago, so it still requires !w. Unlike CSGO, there isn't a OnVoiceTransmit function to hook onto. I'll look into a workaround after this weekend

     

    Speaking of this weekend, I won't be home to work on bombs (@Hidingmaster). In my opinion, they should be fine now that bank doesn't have interest. If need be, @DrLee can always set the bomb cvars to one specified in an old conversation (Bomb cvars are in server.cfg).


  4. I'm going to do a complete re-work of the last CT music (Soon™), in which all last CT songs are going to be replaced. Post any suggestions for new songs here. The ones with the most likes will be added. If you guys post troll songs and they get likes, they might get added (@Chrono ;))


  5. 1. Be rid of bank/interest/gambling (Yes, i really dont see the benefit of it and it makes bombs less fun) Added some balances, i need more than 2 people saying to remove it to fully remove it

    2. Keep bomb so people have the incentive to stay to save up and bomb us (Agreed) ok

    3.GET RID OF ADS, I DO NOT NEED WOMEN'S DEODERANT (Its up to silence and im sure its here to stay) <--

    4. ACTUALLY work on Hub (5 min, ie only when nomulous does it will it be done) Refer to last sentence.

    5. OLD BOMB ( with fire alarm freeday)/Small - Medium bombs only (I would love to have this back) but... what about 2?

    6.Get rid of the shitty maps no one plays and bring back in some classics(*COUGH COUGH LEOBEN COUGH COUGH*) (Agreed) Im 12, do you think i know the classics?

    7. All of these were taken from speculation and people on the server (including mods/admins/higher) (8/10) more like badmins @DrLee

     

    8. Add skins Refer to last sentence.

    9. Change Terrorists Win/Prison Guards win screen thing im a 10/10 ms painter

    10. Add a hub integrated with forums and happy fun stuff Refer to last sentence.

    11. Rewrite rules Refer to last sentence.

    12. Get rid of subpar last ct music I dont think you would like the music i would suggest.

    13. Put in a better (? i think i have it disabled) intro song Refer to 12

    14. Make motd actually show up at the beginning, all the time Refer to 3

    15. Make warden plugin less intrusive (smaller font in corner) Done

    16. Have active staff More like demote badmins (@DrLee )

    17. Get away from being strict staff to staff that can responsibly have fun Refer to 16

    18. Revise lr plugin, making it a little bit less, possibly adding something new to it Refer to last sentence

    19. Fix bombs: Large should only be available to a few people towards end of map, so make it more expensive. Also balance all bombs making them occur less frequently Its only so frequent because of bank. Made some changes.

    Bank changes:

    • Max money is now 50K
    • Interest is disabled
       
    • Lowered starting money to 100
    • Reset Money to Reflect the new max

    Warden changes

    • Now uses the dialogue box by default. You can switch back to the old hud or disable both in !settings

    Now before i even consider working on things like hub/skins/custom lrs I need to know the decision about this thread


  6. On iPad and this is really laggy, I'll fix typos tomorrow

    • CSGO JB is rarely populated, I'd say it's less populated than CSS JB or MG.
    • The server variety on is lacking.

    1 ill kind of give you the one, as someone fucked up the map group effectively breaking it every mapchnge.

    2 it has more custom content than CSS

    1. Create a Minigame and Surf server, while preserving the Jailbreak server, this would help increase population across all servers, as Surf is still pretty popular in Source games.
    2. Create a DM server. These servers (especially low-ping ones located in the US) are pretty popular, as they allow people to grind stat-traks (if you're that kind of person) or to practice with different weapons. However, other servers do it in a pretty bad way, from what I've seen, the server runs a plugin that spawns you with free guns, but the menu is clunky and sometimes doesn't have guns like the FAMAS and Galil available. I personally suggest that if @Bleed can code a plugin that would let the player spawn with $16000 every death, it could work. Maps could be DM versions of more popular and well-made maps, like Dust 2, Inferno, Mirage, and Nuke (never said balanced, lol).
    3. Create a serious casual server with normal game modes, like defuse and hostage. These servers are popular, although I'm not 100% sure if they appear in MM if you select casual. Regardless, these servers are fun ways to practice without harming your rating if you suck.
    4. Connecting the current hub with forums and installing it on all servers, maybe even adding more features. Of course, night vision should be disabled for the DM/casual servers.
    5. Getting CS:S staff who aren't already acquainted up to date with the number of exploits people can use in DM and casual, like breaking smokes (they said they fixed it, but didn't. Biggest glitch with FOV is still present and you can just wreck people with it). Obviously, this should take lower priority, but is still a concern.


    1 we should work on servers we already have before expanding to new servers

    2 not only should yo refer to 1, but to compete with other servers we would need a 128 tick server which costs even more money. I'm not surg what servers you play on but the menu works fine for me.

    3 you contradicted yourself with serious casual.

    4 I need access to a database, right now the hub is setup ghettoly by usin clientprefs to store credits, equipt items, and purchased items. The modules would need to be completely remade.

    5 I don't know what glitch you're talkign about.

    Granted, I'm a TF2 scrub, so you guys probably won't listen to me, but that's all I have to say. Sorry about the wall of text.

    True

     

    Holy shit this is so annoying to type with.


  7. My concern with stripping a lot of the ranks of people is that it would be counter intuitive to what we need in CSGO, which is a strong base to support it. If people lose ranks, they are more prone to leaving and thus dwindles down any hope of getting population from xG to start with. Being that CSS and CSGO are practically the same, especially with jb, I see no reason to really be concerned with transferring most, if not all current staff.

    It might be the fact that staff are no longer picked on the basis of how they act in the server, knowledge of the rules, or how helpful they are, but of how active they are. I won't name names, I just would not have promoted many people over the past few months.


  8. Before i start working on anything more for CSS, I need to know there's a demand for it. If we chose Option 1, I would not transfer all the staff. Honestly, there are people I don't feel deserve moderator/admin, and I would not promote them (Not promote whoever is active @DrLee ;) ) Everyone would have to get active on CSGO and earn it again. If you're looking for a MG server on csgo, i would need another server to put it on.

     

    However if we choose option 2, We need to start reworking things. As I've said before, hub isn't going to be the Raptor Jesus we need to fix the servers. For one, the MOTD needs to not be one of @Forest 's posts (;)) It would have to be simple enough for people to actually read, yet still have fair rules. We should also being back things like community night, but actually have it consistently (Every week or so). I would be willing to help manage them. As for adding more custom plugins, just message me more ideas. (Side note, I'm waiting for a gamedata update for voicehook which was updated today for talking to get warden to be fixed.)

    I would've loved being told this before I started my vacation, maybe weeks before, then I could've worked on something. Though up to you guys, if I'm needed, I can work with bleed.

    At the very least, i need to know the natives/forwards for developing hub modules. Is it the same as the store plugin? Can i get access to a database to actually use a hub that doesn't use clientprefs to store credits, and items people have bought? Can i get access to the hub source code?

    3 things-

    1 dont do a lostlogic (cocklogic)

    2 who the fudge is @Voly

    3 both seem like good options even though #2 seems kinda redundant. @Bleed we've been bitching to you for css hub for a year (more), seriously man the only time there has been people on CSGO is when we were on earlier.

    4 if we do move to CSGO what happens to every css staff member?

    You've been bitching at me for hub for a year? What? I haven't even been developing plugins for a year. I haven't even had CSS server access for over a month.
