Hey everyone!
 
It's time! We'll be starting at 7pm EST (6pm CST, 4pm PST, 12am CET, 11pm GMT). To be invited to the lobby, whisper me or join the lobby called "xG Community Night" through the server browser. In the event we get enough people to fill out an entire server, @Lithium will open a second lobby so everyone gets a chance to play. We will keep playing as long as there is interest and enough people to play.
 
As with all community events, this is something we do to have fun as a community, so please keep the toxicity to a minimum. Of course some trash talking is allowed and only adds to the fun but doing so excessively will get you banned from future events, so please be nice to each other. Hope to see you there <3

-1 toxicity=23?

I've never been a staff member on any server and also I really like the community on your surf server and want to get to know them more and want to improve the servers community by telling others about it.

Europe, Germany, Wiesbaden
Nothing really special here, it's a modern city with a few [extremely boring] cultural things. Ironically this is (as far as I know) Germany's city with the most American population, as a lot of veterans have settled here, hence we have some American areas with American stores where you can even pay with dollars.

Honestly, just don't. If anything during summer because we have nice wheather during summer.

We have a few annual/"traditional" events where you just get drunk. But quite frankly, just don't come here. It's boring as fuck as a vacation place. We, however, do also have a German/American Friendship Fest lmao.

Not really.

You can spend a lot of money on food in like the central part of the city and there are a lot of clubs (for the nights hehe!).

As a student, I don't really go to restaurants. I could suggest some nice places to eat pizza though, ha.
But there is this pretty expensive American steak house I was recently at, which was great. (>going to a foreign country to go to American restaurants, I don't think that's something you would wanna do though.)
Steak - Steakhouse

The drinking age is 16 for drinks with like low amounts of alcohol (esentially beer & wine) and 18 for liquor here. I wouldn't consider any bars outstanding or anything, but we also do have a few American bars here.
All in all I can say that you should probably go to a nicer country, or if you wanna visit Germany, go to Frankfurt (am I right @Yu_Narukami!!!!!!!!).
this was probably not useful at all, but i can't help it.

Actually, his first ban was for sniping from spawn.

i wish my servers gave out a ton of credits for free

Are you running away from us attempting to break the xG bloodpact? Nice try.

I ate it

Spoiler alert this has been a problem and discussed many times in the past. The DL's are simply too busy, change won't come unless people outside the division step in.

didnt know you got demoted and promoted but still wear the DL tags
thanks for the title though

Er, not to sound judgmental as it's not really my place to say so (not to mention I'm unfamiliar with how the TF2 Division does things), but [if my understanding is correct] if Players are being given extended ban times based on any ban they previously had, regardless of the context of the ban, that seems a tad bit excessive. Mind you, this is assuming that the Player was previously banned for speaking another language (difficult to say since the previous ban was for simply "Breaking Rules").
 
Given that there is no static ban time for an offense via communication aside from the 4 hours that was previously put in place for mic spammers in the somewhat-obsolete admin handbook (please correct me if there is), I'm assuming that it's dependent on the Staff dealing the ban. That being said, to ban someone from playing on the Server for a week for speaking another language seems really out-of-place, especially if the previous ban was not relevant (again, assuming) to the Player speaking another language to begin with.
 
I understand that Staff have to deal with a lot of stress and it gets to that point where it's easier to deal a harsher ban time to get rid of a problem Player, especially after multiple warnings; but again, banning someone for a week for speaking their native tongue because they got excited or otherwise enthused over something is hardly a reason to ban someone for that period of time. Not implying that Staff aren't already doing so, but it's good practice to put oneself in the Player's shoes before enacting a subjective ban time on such a minor offense. Revoking the Player's mic/chat privileges would have sufficed just as well (for the duration of a round, map, whatever, don't know how TF2 works) and could have been just as effective without being detrimental.
 
To re-iterate, I'm not questioning Staff's capability to moderate so much as I am offering my perspective from the POV of a regular Player on something that seems harsh. For this reason, I'm not going to provide a positive or negative vouch toward this Ban Protest.

He doesn't need to. We're an American community and we have a rule that says "English only". I also do not expect to be warned in German if I fuck something up. There's no way we could expect staff to [fluently] speak all languages.

Nuclear Dawn is not fine. 99% of the players on that server are bots Servers | Xeno Gamers. Hell, the game is basically dead. I do agree that gmod should be the next division we should invest in though.

Rankings | Xeno Gamers ND is fine. I believe we should work on fixing other servers before making more divisions.

Doesn't matter, the application requires it and not putting it is a problem.

Destiny 2 whenever it comes out. It would be nice to have a team to do things with.

Please provide your steamID.

I've been putting this off for a while now to study for exams this weekend, sorry about that. We'll be holding the first community night on Saturday 3/25* (25th of March), and then either bi-weekly of monthly depending on interest and outcome. If you have any cool ideas for game modes we can play, let me know.

Ironic that you of all people should lecture people about patience ;)
 
See ya around the servers a lot, and besides being a bit anxious about getting vouches you are pretty cool and nice. +1
