Moosty

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.

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.

bsor, masscc, cyberpunk, and abstract all arent even video game related. i know there are some parts in those maps that have video game related things in them, but so does apadiel with the glaceon church.

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.

arent there other sniper haven maps lmao why is this one getting removed

Because it's ugly and not gaming related in any non-technicality way.

+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*

":coffee:"

EZ 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"

No offense but I would recommend Iron for now since we used to have an xG highlander team that weren't good enough to play in Steel but had some decent players on the team. Iron is a good starting point so I would start there and rank up if you do well.

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

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.

Since it's something that hasn't been brought up in a while, and the forums have been updated quite a bit since we got rid of it, I'm wondering if it's possible to bring back the /xG/ anonymous forum? I don't know why I randomly thought of it out of the blue, but it was a fun feature while we had it and was generally enjoyed by the community. If it's a possibility once again it might be worth considering.

It's over but still, what an odd thread. I..hope he moves his mic farther away from his mouth?

no

 

[spoiler=maybe][ATTACH]28339[/ATTACH]

yes

So what you're saying is highlander tourney 5 min confirmed?

Welcome back bby

And sorry I don't have a microphone

I'm neutral since I've only seen you a couple times, but we've had a rule/very strong suggestion in the past that staff have mics. I'm of the opinion that it's super useful to be able to communicate quickly without typing, but I'm not sure it's still a requirement. Either way, good luck!

Now, atleast on my end, I still have a working gif. If that is not the case then lets fix.

Edit: daddy Aegean has one too

No more Conne maps, those have little-to-nothing to do with gaming history.

How can I +1 any harder and how can we topple the Apadiel and Bsor menace (since they're the worst even though bsor isn't a conne map)

Or if we want to go the other way, and forget about the gaming history theme like we seem to do with the conne maps and bsor, we should atleast be consistent and #BringBackEdventures

Baba plz

This can be closed now.

@Vexx @Sesh @Rejects @Bello

I waa born from whalecum have you not seen this T H I C C N E S S

I can feel the sadness in my bones looking at this. Volvo plz fix no balls u wont.

Heh, we had Muselk join JB on an admin abuse day once. I think that was better.

@Matsi making us look bad like no man before him, or since

Edited: because i put pr instead of or, like a scrub

*Heart shaped lips*

AYYY What That Mouth Do?

I'm sorry, it's actually pretty good fam

We might need to have a conversation on what sort of outside of server communication can be punishment worthy at some point, but that convo will take more than a day. So unfortunately you'll probably have to wait it out.

And as @Forest said, anyone can make a ban protest no matter how seemingly frivolous or no matter how short the ban. They can all be valid. We could still learn something and improve xG if the higher ups clarify and discuss this type of case, but it won't affect this case in particular, so it's kind of see you tomorrow at this point.

Server is very good to go. All the perks are back and have been edited to be completely fine.

 

The only thing we need is music, thats all. We want at least 2 songs per boss so its 50/50 on which song it is.

The bosses we have are as follows:

Demopan, Ninja Spy, GentleSpy, Saxton Hale, Vagineer, HHH Jr, Christain Brutal Sniper, Easter Bunny, Daft Punk, MLG Sniper, Captain Falcon, Gabe Newell, Hatsune Miku, Adolf Hitler, Handsome Jack, A Human Sentry Buster, Joker, Luigi, Mario_N64, Pacman 2, Phoenix Wright, Skeleton-Mann, Grey Alien, Conker, Wario, Waluigi, Garfield, The Blitzkrieg, Dark Vader.

 

Just put a boss name and a song to request for it to be put in!

The hype is real

Good boi rejects

That's a broken image on my end but I can confirm rejects is a good boi. He might even be the best.

Ive noticed a little bit but I tend to get spikes here and there anywhere so IDK. I've assumed it was just my connection but maybe not.
