  1. I have an idea that could potentially help, and would make the majority of players happy, though it would take more work than slapping a .smx file and a map rotation onto a server.

     

    We could always code an xG specific gamemode. This way we could have 100% control of what happens in the server.

    Or if that seems like too much work, we could make a special xG map. If it were to act like our trade servers, just give the map a ton of things to keep players occupied other than spawn camping and trading.

     

    I mean, we've recycled a TON of different maps and gamemodes but people will find a way to find exploits, or annoying glitches in 'em, or just generally get bored and stop playing. If we had something that's 100% custom, it could even replace multiple servers at once.

    Think about it: a map built with a mini Deathrun game built in (can even be 100% automated if done correctly), a large area for people to dick around in like the trade servers, special areas for events to take place, hell you could even use it as an excuse to test new scripts and plugins. This way if we give players enough choices with a single map, then it should practically populate itself.

     

    Now I may not have too much map making/coding experience, but this is a good excuse for me to learn. Plus, it could always be a team project. It would get done faster and incorporate more ideas into the map.

    I just think it'd be a neat experience to have the community come together to make something that could be pretty good.

     

    TL;DR: Let's make an xG custom, multi-purpose map, ya dinguses!

    I kinda said this already, but this is a great idea. Yet, this will be a huge map and will require a lot of programming and time. Think about the minecraft servers with all the minigames and such. It probably will look something like that. We ill need a hub of some sort, and then portals to designated areas, and because of this, we will need area chat . And also, because of this, we will need to install multiple plugs on 1 server


  2. We should have a Frontline! Community server.

     

    If you dont know what Frontline is, it is basically a huge collection of community made content that is connected to WW2 maps, and such. It will feature vehicles and the payload in these maps are tanks

    :p


  3. What people are being silenced for is disrespect, and i even touched on your point that if you think it's a problem make a thread. No one gets silenced or gagged for saying faggot as a joke anymore however, i'm not sure about KYS. Some people don't want to be held liable if something happens, that's what i think is going, it's to cover xG's ass. But why would you want to Kys anyway in the first place? only dumb memers use it. Also idk what you mean that everytime you're on tgh you ee people gagged for KYS i hardly ever see anyone use it and when it is used many times it's people being butt hurt. Also i'm saying that the times people use it is a disrespectful manner, what you might think is a joke, others might be offended, that's life. i'm sorry if you can't understand that or you disagree with me, but that's just what i think the mods go through.

     

    Also, if an admins tells you not to do something, then it's probably not okay to say it again, they give these people ample times to stop, even if they are joking in your case, it's hard to believe they are not after the second or third time where their punishment gets more severe, they know the rules because they got punished at that point it's hard sympathize with them if they keep doing it over and over.

     

    KYS is a mutable offence. If done repeatedly, it can be ban worthy


  4. Hey everyone! today was a big day, i just got paid at work and i thought what better way to waste my items/money on a giveaway to a friend, and thats what i just did! i gave TheVacindak a Strange Festive Professional Killstreak Chargin' Targe and a Strange Specialized killstreak Australium Grenade Launcher (20ish keys). I just made his day! Nothing in return but a HUGH MUNGUS (hehe) thank you from him, and that is all i wanted! absolutely love this guy man, he's done so much for the Surf Servers in TF2 and is extremely friendly, i really hope he has fun with these items and everyone who reads this message tell him congrats! Thank you for reading this and have a good life!

    But all vac plays is pyro... Pyro...


  5. Deathrun and VSH can be easily populated, as it's been proven about a week ago when some people from Poketrade decided to join VSH and we ended up having like 25 players online, I personally would wanna keep them. @Vexx

    In regards to other dead servers, such as ware, events or even the script testing server, I made a thread to see what kind of gamemodes the community would like to play.

    I know that VSH is pretty to easy to populate, see the friday last week. But unlike JB, not much people actually do it. If we can do it more often, we might be able to to keep VSH, but Deathrun... Completely Dead as its name suggests. Also, all the servers could use some new fresh maps to it.


  6. okay guys, here are some brief info about the current tf2 servers

    Deathrun - look at the name of this server.

     

    Script testing - no one uses

     

    Surf - usually active with lots of xG on. Pretty friendly community mostly.

     

    Vs hale - people comes in bursts, sometimes needs manual population, semi-low activity

     

    Jb- almost the same as hale, except a ton more active, and members voluntarily populates the server @Tatost @BreadNubic

     

    Trade Gaming history- I personally detest this server, as a lot of randoms play on it and the server is quite cancerous at times. But extremely active , most random a plays here.

     

    Trade pokemon - better than tgh IMO. A lot of mods and admins plays here. Very active but sometimes empty servers. Better community then tgh. A lot of the members plays here, this server has a bright future . The spawn camps tho @papascarce

     

    ZFT- dead , only sometimes a few people goes on.

     

    Mvm - meh. Populated at some times, but radoms ruins the fun. Needs more maps.

    Trade/Events - Dead as merasmus when soldier pulled the rabbit out of his ass. Pretty pointless unless for events.

     

    Tf2 Ware - what ? This server is empty almost at all times.

    Tl;dr

    Pokemon , tgh, and surf are the most populated Servers for tf2.

     

    What can we do to replace/revive these servers?

    I have 3 points to make here.

    1. Update, or replace the dead servers. Advertise them more and make them known to the world.

     

    2. Recruit more xG members. There are tons of nice people out there that can be recruited. They can help restore the servers to their former glory. Promote more staff members. Demote inactive staff , etc.

     

    3. target the less populated servers and start promoting them in other games and servrers. such as csgo. Give people a reward for playing the servers, etc.

     

     

    What are your thoughts on the tf2 servers?

  8. Appreciate the topic being brought up, I did talk to sticks in the summer and from what I gather he said he would be busy due to school I believe. I do want to work on Gmod but right now as CS:GO is getting much better due to how much work our divs and staff are putting in, I want to work on Tf2 next and see what we can do about the dead servers, and also focus on working on the Minecraft server as well. If Minecraft does not go up before December than I will most likely take over or find someone experienced who will.

     

    I do want a Dark RP or TTT server but the biggest thing is finding someone who can and is willing do it. We aren't using too much resources on Gmod or ND2 so I think we're fine as it is currently and don't need to take it down.

    TF2 is doing great. New members are rolling in! But, we should switch out the stale gamemodes and switch to something innovative, maybe a x10? Or a pure mg server XD . Or , a server running a load of game modes at once . Medieval, mariokart, then payload, then something else. You get the idea, a mashup! That'll be very new and creative.


  9. Can someone create an xG crew? People that plays online can join it. Would be fun to play with other xgs online.

    In my opinion, I highly doubt even if we DID have one of those divisions, probs would be dead.

    GTA online probably won't die until 6 came out. The most recent dlc, bikers just came out and is still updating.
