His apology was so bad, and the fact he dared Kotaku (and the public) to find more pieces of work that he's stolen LOL.

What an idiot.

Kotaku did, and at least one other article of his was basically lifted entirely from Wikipedia. Additionally his resume is a copy/paste of a hypothetical example resume on some resume-builder site.  

He recently took photos of himself holding cardboard signs that read, "will work for food" as if he's in as dire straits as someone who's actually homeless.

halloween ones 

i like all the bats personally

read nibba lol.

the only argument you make is implying we shouldn't have additional staff with the reasoning being we already have staff:

I mean, II hardly see anything happening on the servers(wow that means yer doing your job!(maybe)) that needs more than one or two active mods

 

but this doesn't really make sense, because if tatost would make good staff, or even passable staff, there's no real harm in having him. It's not like we pay anyone here, might as well have him or any other capable person as an extra set of eyes. There's no real negative to "more staff" as a general concept, only negatives if the bar is lowered or if an individual makes for poor staff.

it just seems like people are throwing themselves into an application app to see if people will let em have it lol.

 

Yeah, that's the point of an application. This is akin to me saying "man these map requests threads seem like people are just throwing maps at a wall and seeing if people will add it to rotation lol."

I know dissecting what you say is a pointless endeavor but like, why?

Anyway +1 tatost discord mod.

so why have mods if the dms and dls do it anyway?

Is your complaint here that you have no real complaint?

Gren or Snake

Dead Cells is a great game

Metal Gear Solid all the way. Stealth, action, storytelling, and some good jokes. 

this is indeed a good game, although it is by no means "recent"

What you look like most certainly does factor into you being a hacker or not since actual hackers will 90% of the time have no cosmetics or F2P cosmetics. There was no way to tell that it was Jo, and I'm sure we all know that Jo is pretty decent at sniper, so though I agree people shouldn't jump to conclusions because of their cosmetics, it is certainly a factor often.

We are currently awaiting a demo from @VinylScratch

No, what you look like absolutely shouldn't because as I said, there are very good players who don't care about anything premium offers whatsoever, and there are also high level players with decent shit and traders who've amassed fortunes who cheated for years before eventually getting vac'd and nobody suspected a thing. 

Evidence > petty assumption based on fallible associations. The demo I was shown, by the looks of it, he definitely wasn't cheating. Every time I've played against Jo it also isn't like playing against a cheater at all. He may hit some nutty shots but it isn't 100% consistent, and he isn't unstoppable.

If he is actually recognizable absolutely,  lots of people have accused him of such and quickly turned around when they realize it is him (same for other decent players on the server before such as bless). When he is under a completely random alias, a private profile, and appearing like some of numerous hackers that visit the server though, that makes it pretty much impossible for anyone who doesn't have him added to actually be able to identify him under this presumption. 

What you look like shouldn't factor into whether someone thinks you're hacking or not. There are prem snipers who have nothing but an achievement razorback because they never actually coughed up any money in this game. 

If you want to accuse someone who's actually cheating of cheating, getting legitimate evidence isn't insanely hard. I'm mostly just disappointed.

Stop coming on as a private profile smurf and people might stop mistaking you as a throw away hacking account. Probably not, but maybe. 

This shouldn't matter. It's pretty easy to tell when someone's hacking and someone's just playing the game well. It's a trade server, we don't even get people who know how to toggle most of the time lol.

Is that how some scammers can pull things off?

This isn't really the norm. Only with Valve's recent complete swearing-off of quality control on Steam have people been this brazen about violating tos. I'd bet this game won't live long lmao. 

Here's an example for yous wondering 

Also the dev admitting to literally using the game to mine crypto. 

People joke but we have more than a few capable sniper mains lol. 

Idk, generally with teams what you do is look for people who are good at filling a role rather than trying to fit someone into one. Depending on who does what you can end up with people playing classes they're not great at just because everyone on the team being from xg was the qualifier rather than everyone on the team being good at their respective class. That's not even mentioning the people who are going to be looking to fill the same role. This becomes much less of an issue with sixes because there's less people and it tends to be a little more flexible in terms of who can play what when, but it's much more competitive than highlander and both the skill floor and ceiling are much higher up. 

It's novel but in practice I don't know how well it'd pan out.

remove toxic

I should try that to see if it works on any other map. It seems fun. 

Cannon/Tide Turner can work on a handful of maps, if there's surfing involved you can usually use the Claiheamh Mor so you can trimp further, but if not, generally you use the Caber to have an extra jump against walls. 

It's fun, I recommend trying jump maps as demoknight if you're bored. Different kind of challenge.

I remember there was some map I finished with loose cannon and tide turner. It was a jurf map but not the jurf map.

I don't really care either way but I should warn it seems to become progressively harder to catch mons the more people in the server.

yeet

I think technically vote threads are supposed to be live for a week but yes, I doubt there's enough people to swing a turn to 70%.

Ok after actually reading some of these posts ive realized that this topic is pretty dumb. Like holy crap its a trade server, you shouldn't even get mad in a trade server. Trade servers are supposed to be casual. God please dont remove crits,  i dont want to actually play seriously or try just to kill someone. I want to be able to use my " get memed on" bind when i get a crit that saves me from a better player. Basicly what im saying is come for the gameplay stay for the memes and crits are a vital part to that

"I want random crits to kill people on a trade server" 

"lol ur all dumb for caring about kills on a trade server"

don't want random crits ever? play comp or join a server without rando crits so you can have fun and play like a real gamer, I understand how crap crits are, but that what makes the game fun for me, if it doesn't make you happy, well we all don't get our way do we?

I think you've missed the point entirely. You make these vague sweeping claims of people that're just as applicable to yourself, and then when somebody points that out you just pull the classic "lol it's okay guys I'm just joking I'm only pretending to be retarded don't worry".

Ultimately whether crits are removed or not has no impact on whether I play on the server or not, but it annoys me that the only overall negative of removing them you yourself can bring up is a conclusion that doesn't even follow. 

">Keep random crits "random crits are fair and balanced"" 

like what universe do you live in where people complain about random crits not being a thing? We don't have random crits on most weapons now and I don't ever hear people complaining about that. 

It's fine to just want something to want something, but then it's probably better to just give your input and not constantly misrepresent the opposition because your platform's so flimsy.

lol upgrade your stranges elsewhere

Aren't you the one who wants random crits just to be able to caveman-out and level the skullcutter without doing anything? 

Oh wait hold on I think I can answer this myself.

I love this whole charade of people pretending it's about how they don't want a "comp trade server" or whatever when in reality they just don't want to admit that whatever strategies they use 90% of the time benefit exponentially from doing triple damage randomly for no reason. We're really falling for it, keep it up.
