@BullseyeX Honestly I think if you can't own up to your mistakes and wrong doings there is no reason to ever be CT again. You're using the rules as an excuse to get you out of a situation that was your fault.
Yeah but you're inactive for a reason, others still get on csgo and stuff like that and just avoid going on xG servers. It's one thing of you HAVE to be inactive, but it's another thing if you CHOOSE to be inactive.
I would like to address how we will be handling membership applications from here on out. Beginning January 1st 2016, our age requirement of 16 years old to become a member is being lowered to 13 years old.
Before some of you lose your collective shit over this change, please note that this is not the only change being made. In the event of a user applying for membership where the individual is under the age of 16, they will be required to secure 13 +1 votes instead of the basic number of 10 (oh yeah- CSGO now requires 10 vouches from active members instead of 7). One of those votes MUST be a vouch from a staff member who is a DM or higher. By doing this, I feel that we can effectively filter out the more immature individuals who want to be members, as the DMs+ will be directly involved with their membership.
Also on that note, any member who is accepted under the age of 16 will be put through a probationary period of 30 days. After becoming a member, they are still able to wear tags and all that fun stuff, but they must not acquire any strikes against them within the 30 day period. If they do, their membership will be revoked. We feel that this measure is an adequate solution to the concerns of maturity within our clan, and still allow us to accept membership applications of our younger players. TONS of people have been rejected this past year solely due to age, and I feel it's a shame we are automatically denying people membership because they are too young. Ever since weve lowered the age requirements, weve seen tremendous user growth. After consulting with the other higher-ups, we feel we should start doing the same. Start spreading the word!
-POINT OF INTEREST 2-
Vouching for Members
This is a big one. First off, I do want to remind each of you that we rely heavily on your input on who becomes a member in our community. Any time a Membership Application is posted, the vouches are what dictate who becomes a member. The best way to make our community grow is to be active in our servers, get to know the people playing in them, and directing them to our forums so they may apply for membership.
That all being said, this has actually become a point of concern recently. I'd have to argue that a majority of the time vouches are counted, they are counted incorrectly, because a lot of the vouches being counted are not valid vouches. PLEASE BE ADVISED that when you vouch for someone's membership, you ABSOLUTELY MUST follow the vouching format:
(VOUCH +1 OR -1)
A= ACTIVITY (1 - 10)
M= MATURITY (1 - 10)
Additional Notes or comments:
It's that simple. Leave a number for the Activity and the Maturity, then leave at least one short sentence as to why you think the individual in question should be a member of our community.
HENCEFORTH, any vouches not following this format will be discredited and not applied to the final vouch total. If your vouch does not meet the minimum requirements, a DM+ will comment on the vouch and let you know it isn't valid. You can either edit the vouch or create a new one. DMs+, please make sure we are being diligent with this!
I totes stole this post from @metalslug53 but since it was my idea and they decided to make it an xG global requirement thing I figured he had worded it best :)
I know its past January 1st, but please treat any and all new member applications made on or after that dates under these guidelines!
I'm going to have to agree with owl here, multiple freekills do add up. If people are complaining about you as CT or calling freekills when you don't think they were, try to be a less strict warden sometimes. And if you do freekill someone unintentionally, it's best if you immediately apologize and slay yourself rather than wait for a mod/admin to do it. Just wait out the week ban (it's not that long, really) and try to be more careful going into the future.
Well, honestly, don't think that freekilling every 10 rounds is acceptable. IT'S NOT!!! Good CT's don't free kill and if they do they apologize, which is something that you have don't done, nor have you slayed yourself for the free kills. There is more reasons that freekilling for your ban.

When i get bored i just blow up youtube, twitch or the forums. it's a pretty neat time killer, especially since you can pick ships that other players have created.
