We're down to the point where if we change any of our servers it'll make a lot of people angry. Even if a server is dead most of the time doesn't mean it's not ever played, I still see people hop on Deathrun and Jailbreak occasionally. Also, I'd like a reason for xG to stand out from other servers, and a 24/7 hightower would not really be "standing out" since there's already hundreds of 24/7 hightowers.

That's only the version of abstract made by Conne and only Conne, Abstract_augemented is 100% porn free, I can assure you that. Edit: In case you're wondering, blank is talking about this map: trade_abstract2 (Team Fortress 2 > Maps > Trade) - GAMEBANANA

This is going to be a very lengthy post concerning older maps that were removed because of problems or other reasons. I'm going to go over how we can fix them/why they should be re-added. First we have Minecraft_neon, the map was removed because it would never exit pre-round therefore leaving the advanced infinite ammo on. I've already talked to @Bello about getting it re-added, now our problem is that we can't even get the map to load on TGH. Here a link to the map, which I ripped off my old computer and uploaded to google drive: trade_minecraft_neon_v65_xmas.bsp Now I'm going to go over Trade_abstract_augemented. The map was removed because extremely loud music that could be spammed by noclipping into a "music room" and hitting buttons. There are two ways we could go about re-adding this map, that being disabling the music or making a map-specific rule for even using the music on the map. This is an old map that many people would like to see back, and I don't see a problem with re-adding it since there's already maps that require constant moderation, like Frantic Factory. Here's a link to the map: trade_abstract_augemented (Team Fortress 2 > Maps > Trade) - GAMEBANANA The Rogueport map was removed because of really bad issues with bodyblocking, and for some reason spawncamp (which hasn't stopped us from removing other maps before, so why for that reason?). I don't see why Rogueport was removed for those reasons, Frantic and Rusty_bucket already have a problem with bodyblocking, so why remove Rogueport? Here's a link to Rogueport: Steam Workshop :: Rogueport Trade_Minecraft_fishpond was removed out of the blue. I can't really see/find a reason on why this map disappeared, I actually thought it was on the map list until recently. I do really miss this map, and I don't see a problem with having it in the rotation, please re-add this. Link to Minecraft_fishpond: Trade Minecraft Fishpond (Sunny) (Team Fortress 2 > Maps > Trade) - GAMEBANANA Ctf_the_lava_giant_b2 was removed because people dislike that it was an objective map. Now that TGH has a plugin for disabling objectives, I don't see why we didn't re-add this, probably because it was forgotten or something. I enjoy this map and personally would like to see it re-added. Link to Lava_giant: ctf_the_lava_giant_b2 (Team Fortress 2 > Maps > Capture the Flag) - GAMEBANANA Anyway, just a few map suggestions to break the staleness that I've been feeling with TGH as of late, hope to hear some feedback from you guys. @Bello @Vixen @Rejects

I've never done it to myself personally, I mean I can understand the "for the meme xddd" but I don't want more bans under my name. I've seen some staff come in with 20+ bans, which I would hope are said 1 minute bans.

They're appealing a team ban.

A lot of peoples computers are messing up recently, it's really odd.

We did it Reddit!!!

The RTD effects are fine as is, we don't really need to add any more, especially something so overpowered.

Honestly Kiriy, you do really need to work on your anger issues in-game. You have way too many gags on record, more than most people would have by now. You're not a bad person Kiriy, you just really need to work on your maturity and handling of situations better. I feel that if you did try and be a normal and respecting player, insead of throwing random insults and obscurities at people, you would be a pretty okay member. I feel that moderators could do a better job at working with you on your problems while in game, instead of just constantly shutting you down and then gagging you. I don't think any of the staff really have a problem with you, they just have a problem with how you insult others and stating your annoyance on being "friendly". I know you dislike the xG servers !friendly plugin, many people have problems with it but it's really the best we can do and unfortunately there are rules in place about complaining about being friendly but not using the plugin. The reason why I bring up all these problems isn't because I want people to draw a bad opinion of you or think you shouldn't be a member, I bring these problems up because I feel you really need to work on them before being a member. By applying to be a member of xG you are basically applying to represent our clan to other people, which is why you should work on your maturity while in-game. I know you will probably be a great member someday Kiriy, even if it's not this time around. If you feel that you need the help of a staff member to help work on your problems, don't be afraid to ask for assistance. For now I'm going to keep myself at a 0 for now, please improve yourself Kiriy.

You weren't banned because someone had accused you of hacking, ironically I tend to ignore Kiriy myself. But @Vixen had mentioned that he thought you were hacking so I decided to spectate you for a bit. Even though you had multiple people having "hackusations" against you, you did absolutely nothing to try and calm people down, didn't deny you were hacking, didn't even say who you were. Mahagony, you should know that people do mistake you for a hacker, trying to purposely look like one as you had stated before based on your chat history doesn't really help us moderators out. Here's my demo: [MEDIA=googledrive]0B5WCFaEy8104cUd1aWt5VzN5UlE[/MEDIA] Picture of chat history mentioning looking like a hacker:

It's a one day ban, and you were being a toxic player, just wait it out.

Just gonna quote myself from the other thread.

-1 I personally have no problems with the map. Your complaints are that people spawn camp, which is allowed on the TGH server, and music spam. The music spam can be easily solved by simply going into your options menu, going to the audio options and turning the "music" slider all the way down. There is literally nothing wrong with the map. Many people still love Cyberpunk, it's not that bad of a map if you simply just turn off your music. The map was removed a while ago and put back due to popular demand, removing it again would only waste everyones time.

The integration of the ranks into the forums has caused player chat histories to be censored, could you guys do something about that?

Well that is really unfortunate, hope to still see you around on TGH friend.

Your profile says you're 19, your submission says you're 23. I know for a fact you're no older than 15 years old based on your voice. If you're going to make a submission, please be honest about your age, it says a lot about your maturity. On that note, I have had to mute you multiple times for micspam and whatnot. A:7/10 M:4/10 -1 You need to mature a bit, learn to be honest when applying.

This could actually be a pretty useful plugin, +1.

PROMO/DEMO - Promotions And Demotions #126 He was demoted for abuse, though the reason was withheld. Because I have no idea what he was demoted for in the past, just some kind of abuse, I'm not going to +1 or -1, going to stay at neutral for now.

Bags is someone who obviously doesn't care.

This map has been way more trouble than what it's worth. Bello had to set up an entire script so that "+use" would be disabled on this map only because of how bad the music spam got on it. The red spawn on this map is really not good, it's literally fenced in. The entire reason why this map gets chosen by people is because it has a meme on it, and everyone just LOVES memes now apparently. Echidna is tolerable because all music/sounds stop when you go into spawn. On Edventures, you get the full effect of all sounds and music which is my biggest annoyance. +1 Please remove this horrible map.

Division: Team Fortress 2 In-Game Name: Bags Offender's Steam ID: Steam Community :: Bags Rules Broken: Racism, spamming, toxicity Ban Type: Server Ban Evidence: [MEDIA=imgur]id=a%2FKzXQS;type=album[/MEDIA] These are just four little bits of Bags chat history. Honestly this player has been a bit of a plague on the TGH server. He constantly spams the same two binds in the hopes that he'll make anyone he kills mad. Along with this he is also extremely racist and an all-around toxic user. Here's a link to his chat history if you want to look for yourself: Rankings | Xeno Gamers

Name dropping me was not a very good idea. You're attempting to throw me under a bus for something I did 7 months ago, I do not use those objectors anymore and I do not plan on using them ever again. @Kitsune is no longer a member on xG and shilling them out to be mod isn't going to do anything. Since you decided to mention me in this otherwise normal member submission thread, A:7/10 M:3/10 Work on the maturity friend, it's what's going to hurt you in the long run. -1

I don't see a problem with laying down some rules around this. I know the CS:GO division is a lot more lenient with the slurs thing, but in the TF2 division it's a lot more frowned upon so I'd see it being more likely to be accepted as a rule there.

After watching the demo, yeah I'd say a 1-3 day ban would be enough, so that's a +1 from me. As far as I know this is their first offense so punishment should be kept at a minimum.
