What happened to Auras? I'd also love to see the return of hats, masks, and glasses.

Honestly, I can see why this is an issue and can certainly commend those of you who are fighting to get proper enforcement on this sort of content; however, as with any other 'derogatory' word/slur, there are certain limitations on what should and shouldn't be censored.
 
My one and only grievance with this whole thing is the fact that people are treating the use of the phrase "autistic" or "autist" as an insult, when it really isn't. By choosing to censor or effectively ban the word, you're inadvertently supporting this stigma that being called "autistic" is a bad thing. So long as this isn't the case and Staff will just be keeping an eye out for the misuse of the term (IE. using the term in a mocking way or intending to use it as an insult) I can get behind regular enforcement of it.
 
That being said, since this is relevant to the topic at hand, Staff should also keep an eye out for any other derogatory or otherwise disrespectful banter including topics that may be sensitive to others on the Servers. This includes any other mental illnesses, recent (or even past) tragedies, etc; which should already be the case :coffee:

I dont disagree with you completely, but i think its different if youre just being addressed as autistic, rather than being called autistic while associating it with a stupid action or some other demeaning situation(i.e someone saying "Are you autistic or something?" when something dumb happens, directly associating autism with dumb stuff. It may not offend all, but it may offend some).
 
I feel like banning the word shouldnt really be a thing, but it still shouldnt be used in a way to make fun of others(which might even go along with the whole "No Disrespect" rule, making a new rule pointless, as it already relates to another).

I was like 6 or 7 and on the news it said that a man was wanted for molesting a child, so I asked my dad, "Daddy, whats a mole-sting? How does a man sting a child with his mole?"
 
He didn't answer me.

@Rabid, @Lithium, @Bleed, @DerpO_o, @Stevenn, @gryfons, and others have been testing the map and game mode to make sure it's ready to go live. It is still in Beta, but we feel like it was definitely a server we needed out asap.
 
This game mode will remind you of Quake and Halo 3 Forge, and you should definitely come check it out!

I wanna help make Xeon Gaming a better community than it already is. And also think i have a lot to offer if i become member. Finally it would make my in gaming expierience on csgo more fun to be part of a clan.

My opinion doesn't technically matter, since I'm not member, but I am extremely against Oscar getting unbanned for several reasons. First of all, Oscar not only got permed from CSS for wallhacks, he also got banned on Minecraft for using an xray hack. He even admitted in his post that he cheated and got vacced last year on 2 steam accounts. As Jake said back a few years ago,

Additionally, he's been extremely irritating on TS, and he clearly can't take the fucking hint about it. I don't know if he is a troll or if he funny, but he constantly says cringy or straight up annoying shit all the time.
 
Thirdly, seems to be trying to force himself into some position in the Minecraft division by constantly asking for the test server ip or by asking another Minecraft community to merge with xG without consulting any of the higher ups in xG about it first.
 
Honestly, I don't see how he has changed at all and I don't understand why he would be given another chance even if the ban was several years ago.

I'm really glad that our CL's are extremely mature!

Full Moon (Its a full fade and ur last knife was named "Midnight" so it fits the theme)

try going into your maps folder and deleting the map that youre trying to join?
 
the directory should look something like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\maps
 
varying on your drive csgo is installed on, etc

how many chromosomes do you have

First off, I finally got my old account back so hype!
 
Second of all, I will most likely return (no troll) with conditions that I have talked with Silence/Rhodo about and I will explain some of the changes that are to be expected to be worked on when I fully rejoin.
 
1. Make xG completely self-sustainable. This means zero dollars coming from Silence's pocket monthly and all of it from Ads, Sponsors and Donations. This will also result in more servers, more server incentives, and circling back to advertising xG on other platforms.
More news on this soon.
 
2. Improve the staff activity on servers that need it. This includes TF2 as well as CSGO, I or another higherup will be in touch with the DL and DMs of the communities to think of solutions to addressing these problems.
 
3. Getting a permanent and dedicated server, staff and user base on Minecraft.
 
4. Cleaning up the MOTDS/Guides, and trying to promote more discussion and activity on the forums. Self-Explanatory
 
5. Listening and promoting more community feedback. The servers begin and end with the userbase, and I think more people need to be encouraged to speak about problems that they are having, or changes they would like to see.
 
6. More work on social media and youtube to advertise xG as a community.
 
That's it for now, thanks for reading!

Minigames is live! Please make any suggestions or bug reports in this thread. Map requests are to go here.
The IP is 72.5.195.149.
 
Keep in mind, the first week~ or so may have some bugs. Everything will be patched up as soon as possible.
 
The server features a large selection of maps (71 specifically), 6 of which were ported from CSS by the yung @Charles. They're (probably) exclusive to our server. Come and see :)
The maplist consists of a good balance between multigames/random minigames/course maps. There isn't a cpmenu for the course maps, but I'll consider adding one if there is a high enough demand. I personally don't see the point of having one.
 
 
Also, stay tuned for hub! Should be coming soon, not quite yet though.

You tried to throw your phone at a pokemon didn't you?

Hey guys, so this idea just occurred to me and I was wondering what everyone else's thoughts were on the matter. I will warn you now though, this whole thing revolves around the willingness of the Higher-Ups to cooperate and take the time to actually quiz each instance.
 
... The post is also really long, so there's that too.
 
:coffee: Alright, let's get started.
 
So, say we have someone who mass free-kills. Now let's say that this particular individual, whom I will now call Joe for the duration of this post, has just posted a Ban Protest stating that it was accidental. Now, all that Staff have to go on is the instance in which Joe mass free-killed in determining whether it was accidental or not. Aside from that, Staff can also do a background check on Joe to determine if he has a past history of free-killing. For the sake of this example, let's just assume that Joe has a clean record; no free-kills or bans dealt otherwise. That leaves Staff with an idea of whether it was accidental or intentional (which I still think should be labelled as such when banning: IE. acc mfk, int mfk), not including situations where it's blatantly intentional. Anyway, let's say that the Staff are unclear and that it appeared to be an accidental slip-up on Joe's part. Should Joe be unbanned on the spot? Should he receive a shorter ban time? It's quite the dilemma as "permanent" bans are becoming notoriously easy to get out of (not including that damn Mona Pizza challenge b/s)
 
Staff will typically butt heads on this matter, and it isn't hard to see why. It's difficult to determine whether a mass free-kill was done with a malicious intent or if it was accidental, and herein lies the problem. So, my suggestion (or theory, whichever floats your boat) is that any player who pleas "accidental" (provided that Staff are unsure) can be given a [minimum(?)] week (or less) to brush up on the MotD rules. Once the week(?) has come to an end, the player will then be tested by the Division Manager/Leader(s) (the Ban Protest will remain open) with a pre-determined amount of questions that will [more or less] cover each and every section of the MotD rules. This set of questions will obviously vary for each Division, and should differ from test to test to prevent any "cheat sheets" from being made. After being tested, the DM/DLs will compile the player's percentage of answers correct and will then determine how long the player should be banned for based on their percentage (IE. 0-40% is a permanent ban, 40-50% is a month ban, 50-60% is a two week ban, 70-80%+ is a week ban [% to time is subject to change, discretion of Higher-Ups]).
 
Now, this does seem like a lot of work, but do keep in mind that this sort of testing will only go into effect if an offender pleads "accidental" mass free-kill that is otherwise not 100% clear on the Staff's part, which is already somewhat rare to begin with. Moreover, this "defense" can only ever be used once at any given time by each offender.
 
The implementation of such a task introduces a few pros that I believe are pretty beneficial:
 
First and foremost, it gives the whole "permanent" ban for "accidental" free-kills a lot more validity (Think "he should be unbanned because this guy was" argument). It's entirely up to the offender to take matters into their own hands by brushing up on the MotD rules, or risk being permanently banned unless he/she chooses to undergo the 'challenges'. That is to say, instead of taking up the Staff's time, it'll take up the offender's time. If they aren't willing to put the time in, then they obviously aren't interested enough in playing on the Servers.
 
Secondly, it allows DM/DLs to more accurately determine a proper punishment befitting of each particular individual; that is to say, there won't be this "bias" air floating around Ban Protests (not implying there is, but better safe than sorry) against supposed accidental free-kills. Again, the ban time will solely depend on the offender's diligence in brushing up on MotD rules.
 
Third, it can increase efficiency and reduce any wasted-time of our Staff. It can potentially save Staff time from having to actively monitor a particular individual to determine whether or not improvements have been made in the long run and frees up their time on the Servers to do what they do best: moderating.
 
Alright, so before you start saying "but Forest, these offenders could just as easily take a gander at the MotD rules during the time of testing and bull sh*t their way through it!", just hear me out. Even if this is the case, the offender will inadvertently retain some of the information they are reading up on in the MotD whether they like it or not, even if it is their intention to cheat. Besides, even provided that they bull sh*t their way through the test, what is there really to lose? If Joe happens to mass-freekill again and comes back here to bitch and moan "but it was accidental, I swear!" Staff can wash their hands of it since he was already given the opportunity to better himself, right? At this point, Joe has dug his own grave with a shovel of ignorance/arrogance and is now sitting up sh*t creek without a paddle.
 
Obviously this whole thing is far from full-proof, but that is exactly why I've brought it up here. Think of it as a proof of concept more than anything. I'd honestly like to hear what others have to say, whether you agree or disagree, or whether you think it's just stupid as hell and that Staff have enough on their plate as it is.
 
As always, comment, berate, give your opinion, or what-have-you down below. I'm not sorry for this long-ass post.
 
- Dat guy, Forest

Personally I think we should just stop perming first time offenders who mass on accident, unless they have a history of way too many accidental fks / other reasons. Permanent bans should given to people who are intentionally trying to ruin the experience for others on the server and/or those who simply are unable to properly play CT (also making it unfun for the rest of the players).

0, from his past he can definitely get upset at small things and occasionally would scream into his mic, had issues with rules a few times too.. I also have a pretty good doubt in my mind that you're not 15.

I'm just thinking too far now remember the cameras on parabellum? what if we could use them
