SO YEAH.

I've been meaning to throw one of these threads up just to address some things in the TF2 division. Basically as we all know server population is fluctuating both positively and negatively. We're getting a lot of new members, but yet a lot of people are leaving. We have a ton of new servers and maps thanks to @ColdEndeavour, @Nomulous, and @kbraszzz. xG is changing a lot right now and what better time to change up one of our divisions? So I just have a few things to say that in my opinion will help out TF2 in the long run. If any one else has any ideas, feel free to add here or contact myself or @kbraszzz directly.

 

FIRSTLY. The staff.

Sure you can have flashy maps, and tons of plug ins, but staff is one of the biggest parts of any server/clan. Without staff, servers run rampant. Rules are broken, servers slowly get known as unpleasant places, and population declines due to that. A staff member should be kind, courteous, and helpful with whatever issues are brought on to the server. That being said, a staff member must be wearing their tags at all time on any of the TF2 xG servers. NO EXCEPTIONS. This is to show the people that aren't familiar with our staff team who in the server has power to assist. We all need to make a conscious effort (myself included) to portray this image on servers and on forums. (This includes screaming profanities/racial slurs, etc. This behavior is unacceptable)

 

SECONDLY. Members.

This delves a little deeper into my first point. Members are one of the first things a non-member will see when hopping onto our servers. Obviously wear the [xG] tags with pride and show people what xG is about. As previously stated this is not server exclusive, but servers should be a main focus at this point. Everything stated above to staff also applies to members. Treat others how you would want to be treated. Simple as that. That means do NOT make fun of a kid for his voice, exclude people because they don't like the same stuff you do, or think differently than you do. (Some very common examples) We're a gaming COMMUNITY after all. Everyone that joins should feel welcome and not threatened. We all need to work on breaking down the wall that the TF2 div threw up and start branching out.

 

THIRDLY. PLUG INS.

Not a very large point but still a part of servers. This includes hub as well. It seems that hub especially is mixed feelings ith the community. Some love it, others hate it. I know that RTD has always been a fan favourite, but some other plug ins that we're slowly adding (Last CT on JB comes to mind here) can cause the decline or incline of population. At this present time I do not know if the addition/subtraction will be a significant difference on our servers, but yet it is still something. This being said, I wanted to address all the broken plug ins that have layed broken for weeks, months at a time. If anyone sees bugs or issues with any plug in, contact myself/kbraszz.

 

FOURTHLY. Servers/maps.

This is my final point I wanted to say. We all have our favourite maps. The maps that we first joined in on and fell in love with. Some maps that come to mind are Celedon City, Clocktown, Click Clock Woods, and Hop_JB to name a few. Lets say your favourite servers was suddenly changed one day. Or the map you love so much left, you aren't exactly gonna want to stick around. You'll want to go somewhere where the map is present and alive.This is one of our main issues with the TF2 division and it's about time it changes. At this time it's just a few people making the decisions but we all need to come together and figure out what servers/maps we NEED and what servers/maps need the ax. I agree that we have a lot of servers that imitate other servers we have, and only one of the two servers are populated. This is why we need EVERYONE'S help to fix this shit once and for all.

 

 

That's all I have to say for now. Just some shit I've been thinking about lately. Apologies in advance for bad grammar, punctuation or a repeated tone. (It's 4:20 am at the moment and been working all night so be gentle)

 

 

AS PREVIOUSLY STATED. ANY THOUGHTS/IDEAS ARE WELCOME.

TLDR. Don't be a dick, treat others nice, wear tags, and let's better these servers once and for all/
