    They're both great in their own way. TF2 is a lot more casual, CSGO feels a lot more competitive.

    I don't really like to play competitively too much; I just like to have fun and do stupid shit, which is why I prefer TF2. But I can 100% see the appeal in CS if you're the competitive type of person. CS is fun every now and then for me, but I find it to be a bit too serious and not really relaxing because you need to always be on your toes.

    As a result of all donators so far just wanting to donate rather than be entered into the raffle, we have decided that the original prize money will now be donated to the charity.

    We hope this isn't an inconvenience to anybody who intended to enter the raffle in the future. We have come to this decision with the consent of all donators so far; we wouldn't get rid of the prize without consulting them first.

    Should you donate, please let me know how much you have donated so we can count up how much we have raised. Post your receipts here or pm me them on Discord or Steam, please.

    Thanks again, everyone!

    So virr liked the post, so I guess the link was changed?

    Clicking the link in the post takes me here 

    6554b6be8c0d829a8bf63ae0c82cf121_link.pn ME Association

    WWW.MEASSOCIATION.ORG.UK

     and clicking on the link to donate takes me here, which appears to be the same site which looks seriously dodgy?

    https://donate.justgiving.com/?uri=aHR0cHM6Ly9kb25hdGUtYXBpLmp1c3RnaXZpbmcuY29tL2FwaS9kb25hdGlvbnMvMDE0ZjlmZTYxOTczNDcwYWFhZGNhZjZkMjhmMzI1YzE=

    So how do I donate directly to the charity?

    That is the correct link ? be sure to screenshot your receipt so I can enter you into the raffle ?

    Change of plan @virr please remove that link to the website on my post. Website looks seriously dodgy in hindsight. If you have already donated to that website raffle, please let me know.

    Please donate directly to the M.E Association and screencapture how much you have sent. You will be entered into the raffle.

    Hey everyone!

    @Aegean and I are hosting a charity raffle for a chronic illness called Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E); a life changing disability that turns simple everyday tasks into a marathon. M.E leaves a person constantly fatigued and in devastating pain. Some days, you'll be lying in bed all day, barely able to move, limbs feeling like they're twisting in ways they shouldn't. On a good day, you can walk to the kitchen and back, but that will be all you can do for the day. Unfortunately, my girlfriend suffers with this illness quite severely and is wheelchair bound, can barely attend social events and struggles to make her way to school. There is currently no cure.

    Despite all of this, she always has the brightest smile on her face and always stays positive, no matter how difficult coping with this horrible illness can be. She has a passive passion for art and is a fantastic musician that will bring tears to the eyes of even the manliest.

    As a bunch of people who donated do not wish to take a part in the raffle, we will donate the raffle prize amounts to the charity as well, and invest in more giveaways in xG throughout 2019!
    *Edited by Aegean*

    The charity in question is called the M.E Association, which aids people suffering with this chronic illness by providing support, raising awareness and researching into one day finding a cure.

    If you would like to donate, please click on the link above and donate. After donating please message me with a screenshot or post the receipt in this thread so we can figure out the total amount of money raised!

    Thank you everyone!

    Bartender here! Favourite alcoholic drinks are Double Amaretto and Coke and a Double Fireball and Coke, but only with a little bit of coke.

    Amaretto is a sweet Italian liqueur flavoured with bitter almonds, though the brand I drink tastes like Battenberg.

    WWW.BBCGOODFOOD.COM
    Sarah Cook's traditional Battenberg cake is a delicious project for an afternoon in the kitchen

    Fireball is Cinnamon whiskey.

     

    Non Alcoholic drinks? Never heard of it. ?

    Why not just have some willing staff members host the populate event?

    I am more than happy to host some population events, if necessary. Right now is a bit awkward since I've gotta do the morning cleaning at work for the next two weeks, meaning I can't stay on late at all. But once that is over, I'm more than happy to host events.

    Just to clarify, applying for member does not give you moderator, admin or any staff position. Being a member means you are officially part of the community, represent our clan with the tag and have a chance to be given moderator in each promo demo. There are multiple different perks to being member too, such as being able to vouch for other players to become member, apply for staff and be considered for staff.

    Here is a link to the staff application guide. PLEASE read through the guidelines as we've had so many people apply without being eligible for staff

    Let me just start off by saying I'm pretty upset to see this. I consider Red a pretty good friend but I feel as though I must give my non-biased thoughts on this topic.

    Here are the chatlogs as some things have been missed (Kypari is posting this too but it depends on who finishes their post first ? ) : 948c901d07b59d60ad61c9a920189d40.png

    As seen in this evidence, there was definitely an attempt to stop Red and Red continued. I must elaborate on what Bonk has said and say that in situations like these, it doesn't matter if you think what was said wasn't offensive, but if the receiver is made uncomfortable on our servers then it becomes an issue. I can't express that enough. For example, as much as I disagree with the offensiveness of this, there is a situation where a player called Hype constantly got called smelly and he got upset by it. Even though I and many others think it's ridiculous, if we're attacking someone with something that is clearly upsetting someone, then you're in the wrong.

    You only specified "in chat" so I'll assume you mean you warned in text only. You have to warn both verbally and textually, I learned that the hard way a while back when I banned someone who muted voice chat and was breaking rules. You apparently didn't even kick the guy, so that's an even bigger red flag (haha get it?). Jumping straight to a permanent ban only after one previous ban is kind of bullshit.

    Also, regarding you saying that their ban being a straight up perm being unfair, I understand. However, if we were to ban someone for a month for disrespect and then later ban them for a day for doing the exact same thing, the whole banning system is meaningless. If the ban reason for Red had been, for example, exploiting, the ban would go back to 1h > 1 day >1 week > 1 month > perm. Different reasons for bans, in most cases, are not related.

    I think the problem here is knowing when to stop. Of course, you expected a kick, but unfortunately things are a bit more complicated here and repeat offenders don't get a kick. The name changing to avoid gag, in my opinion, was the nail in the coffin.

    In conclusion, ban was justified. Precious followed the system and I hate to say this but all staff members would've done the exact same thing. I hate to see you banned though man, so I'm just gonna link you the unban challenge thread.

    All the best, mate.

    I think this post needs evidence. Whilst I'm certain there are people who can attest to this, a ban request should always include evidence so we can be 100% certain. Type "record <demo name>" to record a demo or take screenshots and post them in the ban request.

    Please remember this for the future!

    @Caleb956 and I were on Surf when TAOW went on an alt and started using slurs and being generally toxic, of which we banned him for a month.

    OP was then eventually permed for multiple bans on trolling.

    It is sad to see a regular get permed and I've personally never had anything against you. However, according to your ban history, you have had a serious history of trolling and being generally toxic. Clearly, there is no improvement to be shown as you have been banned multiple times for very similar issues.

    Despite that, I don't see any harm in giving a second chance. Like with the Brian ban protest, there's no harm in giving a final chance and if the OP makes the same mistakes, the ban will be more permanent.

    +1 for unban. TAOW has apologized and see no harm in giving an extra chance. The two months or so he's been permed, he's bound to have learned something. Should he step out of line AT ALL, perm on sight.
