What's wrong with spawning in a cell?

You can simply type !redie again to get back to a spawn if you get stuck.

For the second option, time would likely not be added to a round, only removing up to ~3 minutes, so testing wouldn't really require that much effort. Redie is an old plugin, it was also on the CSS RPG surf server I believe. You can move around the map as if you were alive, but you are invisible and cannot push buttons or open doors. You would be able to do map games like surf or climb or whatever if you wanted. I'm not sure what you mean by it being cheating though.. And hub has been essentially ready on CS:GO for a while, its only waiting on the forum aspect.

In regards to long round times, I've thought of a few possibilites that I'd like some input on - We simply shorten the round time a minute or two. Shortening too much could make it somewhat unfun when more people are on though, and it feels like rounds are too rushed. Scale the round timer based on number of players on the server. This would keep the round time where it is now for when a large amount of people are on (15+?), but shorten it by 1-3 minutes if theres only a few people on. Add a !redie plugin. This allows dead players to type !redie and run around and play map games or whatever as a ghost, but not affect the round or people still alive in any way. Or, we could do nothing and keep it the same. thoughts?

Right now, it seems like trading sites haven't been targeted, solely gambling sites. Their statements do seem to imply that trading sites are under the restriction as well, but none of the sites targeted by the cease and desists were solely trading sites.

Neat. You could add a gun with a point_template, using a logic_case to only spawn it in randomly, so it's not there every round. Might give the map a little more variety, while not making rebelling too easy.

Since the banning staff member said he thought it was an accident, I've shortened it to 2 weeks, as is typical for accidental masses. That being said, do not expect to have bans removed or shortened in the future for accidental things, as CTs are fully expected to be paying attention during rounds and know the rules.

For anyone who hasn't seen it yet - News - In-Game Item Trading Update "In 2011, we added a feature to Steam that enabled users to trade in-game items as a way to make it easier for people to get the items they wanted in games featuring in-game economies. Since then a number of gambling sites started leveraging the Steam trading system, and there’s been some false assumptions about our involvement with these sites. We’d like to clarify that we have no business relationships with any of these sites. We have never received any revenue from them. And Steam does not have a system for turning in-game items into real world currency. These sites have basically pieced together their operations in a two-part fashion. First, they are using the OpenID API as a way for users to prove ownership of their Steam accounts and items. Any other information they obtain about a user's Steam account is either manually disclosed by the user or obtained from the user’s Steam Community profile (when the user has chosen to make their profile public). Second, they create automated Steam accounts that make the same web calls as individual Steam users. Using the OpenID API and making the same web calls as Steam users to run a gambling business is not allowed by our API nor our user agreements. We are going to start sending notices to these sites requesting they cease operations through Steam, and further pursue the matter as necessary. Users should probably consider this information as they manage their in-game item inventory and trade activity. -Erik Johnson" TL;DR - Valve is shutting down gambling sites using steam items. Thoughts?

Binds and aliases are not scripting. Scripting refers to using external programs, such as autohotkey, which I should mention, will also get you overwatch banned in CS:GO. It's clearly considered cheating, no questions. See @Owl's link to get unbanned.

It's been only a month since you were banned. Not going to unban after so short after an intentional mass.

+1 is probably the rudest person i've met within xg, constantly on teamspeak, and literally never sleeps M:-10, a:7

Closing this since first of all, a staff member really needs to be respected by the existing community, and it's clear you are not, regardless or not these peoples' reasoning for it is valid. Secondly, it's clear you have a completely ridiculous attitude towards being staff. Calling the community "shit" and thinking you are somehow the chosen one to be able to "un-shitify it" just screams narcissism and immaturity, both of which obviously are not qualities we want for staff.

+1 seen him around for a while, A:8 M:8
