  1. We should remove this one. It does have the one area that's gaming related, but being gaming related should be a minimum standard, not grounds for a spot on the server. Bsor is overall a low quality map that doesn't live up to the standards of our other maps, and is usually just a troll nomination. It isn't fun and it isn't very well liked so there's really no reason it should keep it's place in the rotation. But that's just my opinion so let's hear what the community has to say.
  2. I always liked the rule before, but with staff switching to titles instead of tags, this kind of gets screwed. It's entirely possible for a user to use calladmin without knowing staff is online if staff aren't wearing tags. The only way to tell is if the staff happened to use chat without allchat, and the user happened to read it. If its no longer as easy as pressing tab it's unreasonable to expect randoms to know who staff is. This should be a warn/kick/ban like everything else.
  3. *Remove homing balls ...jk I'm just salty Not saying I wouldn't be down for it thooooo
  4. It's not sunday but ayy, I've been lazy and haven't shaved in like a week, should I embrace the grossness and see where it goes or ditch that sexy neckbeard look?
  5. +1 I genuinely, no meme thought you were already member. You definitely deserve it. Forum and server active AF, and mature. A 9 M 8
  6. Absolutely Unacceptable @Dethman
  7. Give this man a medal he just put what I was thinking into words. As staff, your first priority is moderation of the servers. If those duties take away from your "fun" or make you less succesful at a gamemode, then so be it, you still need to fulfill those duties. As staff, your own personal fun is less important than the fun of everyone else on the server. You keep the server enjoyable for THEM, not yourself. Taking a few seconds to type a warning isn't going to ruin more than a round for yourself. But making a vocal warning that doesn't get heard just means the punished player will get confused, make a protest, and you'll spend your day defending yourself on the forums. All because you didn't want to waste that one round. More is expected of staff than other players, and part of that is giving up a turn as hale or getting backstabbed as a blu on jb to type out a warning.
  8. Pretty much, all of this. The man knows his server side stuff, and without him we lose a large chunk of our ability to fix and customize our servers. That's a big thing to note, demoting rejects lessens what we can do with the servers, None of our other current higher ups are as savvy with server coding as rejects. That being said, continuing to do something you've been warned for is not a good look at all. I really dont know what to say here. It isn't as simple as just demoting him because we don't have someone else who can do the job as well right now. But there has to be SOMETHING done. I love my baby Rejects but this is not good. I'm neutral for now just because I don't see a good option either way, but damn.
  9. +1 for the hot and heavy clarification
  10. This brings up something ive noticed in this thread.I'm not saying anyones opinion is wrong, since this is an opinion based community poll, but I will say I see some people treating a map being gaming history related as reason enough for us to host it. And atleast in my opinion, a map being gaming related should be the bare minimum for consideration, not the standard requirement for getting through. A map can be gaming history related and still low quality.
  11. Im neutral on the case, and it's a day ban so not the biggest deal, but I will say it's always been my opinion that the responsibility for making sure warnings are heard falls on staff and only staff. You're a more trusted member for a reason and more is expected of you. Use voice and text chat both in most situations to be 100% sure. Some players will have voice off, some never read chat. It's just better/safer to cover your bases.
  12. I will say that the "It has a gaming history area" argument is a bit weaker with bsor than masscc and abstract. Both of those maps are well made and visually interesting/enjoyable to play in the non gaming areas. Bsor though is comparable with Hyrule for file size and doesn't fit anywhere close to the same level of map in the space. It has only the one section worth playing, the rest is just drab and poorly made open areas and stock textures. There is so much wasted space, and so much of the map percentage is low quality that it just seems like a step below the other maps on the server. As does apadiel obviously.
  13. And I think all of those maps (except abstract and 1 of the cyberpunks because popularity)should be removed. We're in a spot where adding maps has gotten more and more lax overtime, and some lesser quality/non gaming maps slipped through because of lack of oversight. Us screwing up other times is a pretty weak reason to not fix this mistake.
  14. Because it's ugly and not gaming related in any non-technicality way.
  15. +1 get rid of it. It's horrendous to play on and brings nothing of value to the server. It's like keeping the hallway cyberpunk now that we have the better one *coughs and winks one after the other*
  16. Tfw I try to message a tf2 Dm/DL last night and only @[51806:@Bello] and @[51591:@Rejects] still had me added. Resolved but damn. #RealFriends #BlackEyeliner
  17. I miss Hau. Do you miss Hau? We should visit him and bring him some cancer sometime!
  18. Solid update, now to find ways to make my name/title combo work as a sentence. Server Moderator in the sheets, Moosty on the streets? Nah too long, but I'll find a good one.

    It's not a real life quote but... "Can I have admin now?" And no hate I promise it was just always so damn funny. Everyone is over it we can laugh now. THE MYTH, THE LEGEND "I'M Actually The best mod in xG, so yeah"
  20. Can confirm, the rude awakening is that community server scrubs like us, no matter how skilled, have the gamesense and synergy of a carrot. We got rekt by twelve year olds who pub all night, even if our 3rd or 4th best player was better than their best
  21. I'd be down to participate or help lead but I can probably just give you or help with our current official steel team instead of making a new one. I'm just wondering if this will be a for fun team or actually trying to be skilled, because our other attempts at trying have just led to toxicity, fractured friend groups and 2 win seasons, while our for fun seasons led to 2 wins and actual fun and laughter in teamspeak. I don't want to be rude, but I have some concerns, xG has tried quite a few highlander teams, and only two have finished one or more seasons. It takes alot of hard work to organize practices and scrims among 9 different players, and unless you're absolutely committed the team probably won't last four games. This seems like it was a spur of the moment decision to make a team, and those don't usually pan out. My advice if you want to succeed would be to glean as much information as you can from other leaders, keep them added after you've played them so you can organize scrims and ask them what groups they use to find scrims. And don't just talk to the players on match days, keep that dialogue open so you're not surprised by an absence. Good luck.
