I'm going to be the one who strays from the norm here. I personally like the change back to 24/7 Clocktown. It's always been my favorite map out of the entire rotation, and I remember the glory days when it was always Clocktown before we began trying other maps.
 
Don't get me wrong, the other maps are amazing as well, but Clocktown seems to be the one that nearly ALWAYS gets voted for, due to its design and its popularity. It isn't as if we lost the other maps either. We still have the Nintendo based server where all the other maps have roosted.
 
I say keep it as is. I hated switching maps every ten minutes because people have an attention span of a potato. One map is fine by me, and I have no issues with Clocktown.
 
EDIT: I am aware that Nintendo is not very popular at the moment, but now people actually have a reason to go there. It doesn't share 80% of its maps with TGH anymore. Short answer to the issue is that if you want to play on the other Nintendo maps, use the Nintendo server.

How about we change "No immature voices." to "Keep the mic open for traders." on trade servers? We can enforce other rules if need be, and lump in the annoying ones to mic spam if they get out of control?
 
I've heavily enforced the "No squeakers" rule since I received mod, but I honestly feel like it is a tad bit discriminatory. Do away with it and just deal with the annoying ones.

Just trying to be active! =D

I think it's a great idea to implement something like this, but these vote systems are easily abused by large amounts of people. As long as it can be regulated and isn't abused, I'm all for it.

I wouldn't mind Halloween mode on the servers, except for Unusual Trade. It makes Spycrabbing a real headache. =(

I don't think "low-tier" would generate any issues, but I can definitely see a problem arising from using the term "shit-tier".

So, @ColdEndeavour and myself have been working tirelessly to make our Unusual server absolutely flawless. He is currently fixing a few things with the map layout and adding a Sniper arena. While he works on this, he tasked me with drafting the ruleset for the Unusual Server, and I feel like I have covered most of our bases. I just wanted to make sure it was thorough enough. @Nomulous, let me know if there is anything you think should be added or changed.
 
Here is the list:
 
xG Unusual Server Rules
 
1. DO NOT cheat, exploit, or grief.
2. DO NOT scam others.
3. DO NOT use inappropriate sprays (Porn, shock, gore, etc.)
4. DO NOT use bigotry, racism, or vulgarity.
5. DO NOT spam chat, mic, or weapons/taunt sounds. (This includes prepubescent voices on mic.)
6. DO NOT send random trade requests.
7. DO NOT use derogatory terms to describe low-tier Unusuals, such as “Cancer” or “Shit-Tier.”
8. DO NOT beg for free items.
9. DO NOT post external links in chat.
10. DO NOT misrepresent your item statistics. (Such as claiming an item is “1of1” when 22 exist, etc.)
11. DO NOT use weapons other than melee items in the Boxing Arena.
12. DO NOT advertise that you are buying Quick-Sells. (Advertising quicksells is allowed.)
13. DO NOT abuse Donator perks or spawn bosses.
14. ALWAYS be respectful to everyone.
15. ALWAYS use English only.
16. ALWAYS make sure there’s no more than one person on the mic at all times.
17. ALWAYS seek out Mod/Admin approval before a raffle.
18. ALWAYS seek out an Admin as a Middle-Man when engaging in a Spycrab valued anything over 5 Keys.
19. ALWAYS keep your Backpack public!
20. ALWAYS record all Spycrabs as a precaution. YOU are responsible to provide proof in the case of being scammed.
21. ONLY members of XenoGamers may wear the [xG] tag. Apply at xenogamers.com for membership.
22. All decisions made by the Mods/Admins are final.
23. Breaking any of the above rules can result in a kick or a ban. Please follow the rules!

Not gonna take a selfie but I'll post a picture of me looking fine in tights back when I was actually an athlete/not a scrub. You'll accept it and be glad.

Oldish pic, I don't have silly ones <:S

Scootaloo and I are the champs, we no afraidy waidy

I know it's not sunday anymore, but i dont care and posting me anyways. btw this the the face of evil if you hate me

Also, I'll be damned if anyone thinks I am NOT doing my best to make this a better place. The Unusual Server can serve as proof of my efforts. @ColdEndeavour and myself have been slaving away for the past week to make sure everything is just right, and even now we still aren't finished with everything. I'm constantly in servers participating and doing my job, and I would LOVE to receive a promotion, but am of the opinion that if you ask for a promotion, you probably shouldn't get one. Promos should be awarded based on merit and effort, not persistence and requests.

deep commitment to purple is 3.33-3.66
mann co orange is 3 ref
 
you can't afford one with only 2 ref :coffee:

It's as if none of you guys even frequent Unusual servers, as this is literally the core ruleset shared among literally every popular Unusual Server in TF2. I honestly have no idea what you guys expect out of this server, but I can tell you that it isn't just another trade server. If it is populated, it will need to be strictly monitored and the rules will need to be strictly enforced, as Unusual Trading is a BIG DEAL in the TF2 community.
 
Disagree with the rules all you want, but anything less than this won't fly. This isn't a server where the main focus is coming in to kill other players. Don't forget that.
