I love the MS paint job. I want to offer you a job as a graphic designer at Valve.

...You do realize what you do on the servers dictates weather you get member or not. Lol "why are you bringing stuff from the servers onto the forums".
I've been watching you on the servers man, you're not ready. I'll change my couch when I see when you are. Don't have to get all defensive about it.

lmao when Tails would have 1 on 1 speaking lessons with you on surf and me giving you english tongue twisters

Vertex I'm still kind of confused where this is going like people are given the choice of reading the rules or not (they're given a small list but it gives the player the option to view all of them). Now if they don't read them its their problem so if they don't agree with the punishment of breaking the rules its all on them. It really doesn't matter how harsh those punishments are because they're justified by this. Now not only are they warned in the rules to not abuse !calladmin they are ALSO given a warning before they submit their report as @Bello showed us. So already you have 2 warnings as to not abuse this command because they want to write ''xd le funny meme'' to the staff . Once they get banned its their problem for not reading the rules and warnings before their ban. Honestly I think the punishment we have now works perfectly fine and sends a message to the user as to never do it again.

Hey guys. So as you can probably imagine, I'm posting this thread to address what [to some] appears to be an issue with the 'calladmin' plugin. There have been a few concerns and several problems surrounding the plugin; namely, the abuse thereof. Numerous times players have been banned for abusing the command, and while it makes sense that players who are purposely (and maliciously) utilizing the plugin are punished, there are those who are simply trying to alert Staff because they're either fed up with rule breakers or are otherwise disgruntled. With that in mind, it's important to remember that players may be unstable when issuing the calls (IE. frustrated or upset, thereby resulting in an increased possibility of spamming the command). But I digress.
 
The purpose of this thread is to discuss an alternative that @Vertex initially proposed (in a Steam Group Discussion which you may find by clicking here) that I think is certainly worth considering. Long story short, Stickz proposed that instead of punishing the user for spamming the command by banning them, they would instead either be barred or silenced. In my opinion, this alternative is a far more productive and far less harmful way of dealing with the spam of the command.
 
For convenience, here is/are the code/txt that Stickz provided:
 
[spoiler=sourcecomms.inc]

>/* Punishments types */ enum bType{ bNot = 0, // Player chat or voice is not blocked bSess, // ... blocked for player session (until reconnect) bTime, // ... blocked for some time bPerm // ... permanently blocked } /** * Returns the client's mute type * * @param client The client index of the player to check mute status * @return The client's current mute type index (see enum bType in the begin). */ native bType:SourceComms_GetClientMuteType(client); /** * Returns the client's gag type * * @param client The client index of the player to check gag status * @return The client's current gag type index (see enum bType in the begin). */ native bType:SourceComms_GetClientGagType(client);
 
[spoiler=Plugin Code]

>#include <sourcecomms> if (SourceComms_GetClientMuteType(client) != bNot && SourceComms_GetClientGagType(client) != bNot) { // The client is silenced. Block client from using call admin. }
 
 
Obviously this is completely up to the discretion of the TF2 Higher-Ups, but it does seem like a more passive and less aggressive approach to dealing with players who abuse a command that is there to improve Server relations.
 
Opinions? Comments? Hate-speech? Provide it below :coffee:

I'm making this post to announce that I'm officially back, I reinstalled windows and my PC works now, I'm back home and I'm no longer sick
meaning i can get on servers including tf2 and ts3 now!

I'm supposed to be addressed second after Bagel.

This guy has made so many member applications, I say we give him a chance am I right?

This does not happen too much but when T's slay at the start of the the round to get a better cells it sometimes makes it LR, opening cells and making it a freeday but the other T's spawn back in. Any way to either stop people from respawning or not allowing LR until cells are opened?

This is on the map to do, it would have to be made within the hammer file for the map, and then recompiled and re-downloaded by everyone. It cannot be coded in by the server and we would have to find every mapmaker to add this in for us due to this problem. I don't think I have to explain how hard it would be to get in contact with the mapmakers, let alone get them to edit fairly old and considered finished projects. Basically, it is effectively impossible to do unless someone feels like jumping through lots of loops to add a pretty minor fix.
 
On other news, has anyone else not been hearing the music on JB recently?

I'm sure the server(s) are great, but I'm talking about forums. What is so great about our forum is that i can somewhat keep myself updated with what's going on the other divisions even though i don't really play on the servers that often.
 

Yes, but there's also things you can do yourself to get more involved with the rest of the clan. For example, why is the staff roster so horribly out of date? Why do you discuss everything in a steam group instead of forums? There's a lot of work that can be done here from both sides that would benefit us greatly as a community.
 

I'm pretty sure the vast majority of us have either school or work to attend. If there's is way too much work for a single person to do, why not promote some more staff or get some help from people in other divisions? We're a community after all, if one of us needs some help, that help should be available to get.
 

Definitely. My intention with this post isn't to be rude, but the way gmod and nuclear dawn is run is so drastically different from the rest of xG, i feel like it kind of hinders us from growing. A lot of people, especially the newer members have no idea that gmod or nd even is a division. I feel like having more forum presence would remedy the situation somewhat, and not only grow the your divisions and in turn make xG bigger, but grow the entire clan as a whole.

IMO gifting credits in game is just silly, it should be done through forums as it is a way more secure form of moving your credits around (crashes, database errors, etc. are more common on the server side due to potential hazards on maps or plugin conflicts.) and also can be a form of getting more players to come to the website and register their account and link steam.
