That's just not how it works. The issue started in the server, and you decided to start harassing him oustide of our server. Since you were still on our servers when you started the harassment, it DOES become our problem. You spamming him with group invites with the intent to harass should be taken into account, as it still affects the user. You've only made it worse for yourself and so have your friends made it worse for you. Lets hurry up and get a punishment out @Bello @Goblins @mrnutty12

So you're saying someone who just committed a murder should be allowed to go to work the next day because he didn't do it at his work. You're retarded.

This is the only face i can think of that completely demonstrates your state of mind when you typed that out.

Honestly @Bello he's done this before, and he's played on xG for quite a while so he knows the rules. He deliberately did and said those things knowing that he wouldn't get in trouble because there was no staff on. +1 for a month ban.

I wouldn't say the absolute removal of "fun commands" from the moderator position is a great idea. I've always seen the position of "Administrator" as something the fewer people get because of the amount of work that is put in to get it or how highly they are trusted. If you decided to use Moderator as a way of just testing out people so you can promote them to admin later on, there would be a huge saturation of admins and the hierarchy of power would be really imbalanced. Perhaps we should make "Trial mod" a whole new position, and just put it below mod, giving them only gag/kick/slay/mute/ban. If there's staff that is abusing so much that you feel you should remove those powers from all moderators, maybe you should talk to, and maybe punish, the few who did abuse said powers. If this does end up becoming a huge problem throughout all the moderators though, I'd go ahead and go what nutty suggested, but don't just mass promote people because they "won't abuse the powers", Moderators are there to handle rule breakers and keep the server in line, not to use silly commands "for the lols".

So basically someone comes onto TGH telling me that there was a moderator on Pokemon Trade doing random effects on people and that's the reason why they had come over to TGH. When I got there Parasect was using the /kart command and then started to run into people with it, which does damage other players and is basically abusing the command.

Well this was definitely not something I was expecting to happen so soon. I don't blame you for losing interest in Tf2 either, the game has been getting worse and worse with every update, I do actually believe this last Halloween update might've been one of the nails in the coffin. You were a great community leader, xG probably wouldn't be what it is if it weren't for you. I really hope that I'll see you around, friend.

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.

Something I've noticed over the past few months is that half of our CM's have really done nothing to really help out around Xenogamers. I know @Bleed and @Nomulous still try to do as much as they can for our community but what about @kbraszzz and @Scootaloo? They've hardly played on our community servers in the past few months from what I've noticed. Lately, the TF2 division has had little-to-no support from our CM's, which is really unfortunate seeing as it's one of our biggest communities. Why sit on a position that you're going to do nothing in? I understand having a busy life and whatnot, but at least attempt to take a couple hours out of the week to try and take part in the community and manage it, like you're supposed to. I'm not saying you guys should lose your position or step down, just show that you still care about the community. My intent on making this post isn't to stir drama or anything, I'm just trying to show what people may think of the current CM's who aren't doing what they really should. I have nothing against the CM's, actually I do see them as really good friends of mine.

I pointed that out in the post, I know Bleed and Nomulous do actually do a lot for the community.

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.

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.
