fantastic

Our second stop in this journey is Carl's Jr., today on 02/01/2020. I was headed home and noticed a familiar smiley face in pain on a star that was the Carl's Jr. logo, so I made a detour and walked right in. I told the lady at the front this would be one of my first American burgers, so she immediately pointed her finger to the Original Burger on the menu. "What a thick landwhale" I thought. There were two options for this burger: the 1/3lb thickburger and the 1/2 thickburger. You know me - I ain't a pussy, so I got the 1/2lb thickburger with the criss-cut fries. Once they were done I threw them into my backpack and went home. It was getting dark as I walked into my house, set the burger down on the table, washed my hands, and opened up the cardboard box hiding that juicy greasy deliciousness. I poured the criss-cut fries into the box and made myself a salad to go with this deceased cow, cheese, lettuce, and tomato recipe they call the 1/2lb thickburger. Greasy patties of beef layered generously with American cheese filled my eyes with joy. This was the American burger I had dreamed about. Look at this monstrosity. The pickle hanging on for dear life, screaming "help me, help me!" as my muscular hand held onto the thick burger with a vice grip. Those buns, those buns, THOSE BUNS! Perfectly baked soft buttery buns screamed "EAT ME" as I took my first bite... and was surprised. Out onto the table dripped water from the watery lettuce. IS THIS WHAT AN AMERICAN BURGER IS SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE? I felt so betrayed in that moment, as if my own brother had backstabbed me. The Chick-fil-A burger had me feeling like a British royal, dabbing away the occasional grease on my lips with a napkin. But eating this burger felt like I was braving a tsunami, wave after wave hitting the table as the lettuce just keep dripping water. This is not how a burger is supposed to be like! As I kept chowing down on the burger, trying desperately to make my way from one end to the other without drowning, the dry beef patties came in for the final blow. I couldn't get past a third of the burger before needing to raise a white flag and get a glass of water. If the Sahara Desert were a person, it'd be impressed with how dry these patties were. I could feel myself asphyxiating as I finished the burger. "Never again", I thought to myself. 6/10 experience. But wait. There's hope! As my burger was finished and I moved onto the criss-cut fries, I could hear the crispiness of the fries and the resistance of that outer shell as I took a bite. And another. And another. These are what fries are supposed to be like, ladies and gentlemen! It's a shame they only gave me one potatoes' worth of fries, but man it was worth it. I can't imagine what the Chick-fil-A sauce would've been like with these fries. 8/10. Overall, Carl's Jr. is great for when you're having a depressing day and want to feel what it's like to be backstabbed by the smoking hot girl next door. It's eye candy for sure, but eating a burger that looks that good is a trap. Just get the fries next time.

Hello Steam-Gamers, As a Canadian living in your country for 3 months I've taken it upon myself to try out as many burger places as possible near me in California. This thread will chronicle one Asian's journey into the American life. Our first stop in this fast food adventure is Chick-fil-A (01/30/2020). I ordered this the night I arrived at my rental home so I was super tired and bought it through Doordash. Quite expensive with the Doordash fees on top, but the original prices weren't too bad. After 30 minutes I received the burger and fries. Taking a bite of the chicken sandwich, I could immediately tell that this burger was for white people. No saucy smear of grease on the lips after taking a bite, and the chicken sandwich was delicately seasoned. Nothing too heavy; just the taste of a light brunch after Sunday morning church service. The chicken was slightly crispy, but had it been devoured at Chick-fil-A it likely would have been much better tasting. 8/10. The waffle fries tasted white as well. Not overly-fried - just tickled with the hot oil in the deep fryer before being taken out and sent away to my house. Very soggy fries with no crispiness at all. But wait - there's a plot twist. You see those two beauties beside the fries in the first picture? The beautiful Chick-fil-A sauce? After trying a waffle fry without anything added, I popped open one of those suckers, dipped in the waffle fry, and put it into my mouth. Wow, what a COMEBACK! The slightly tangy, slightly sweet taste of the Chick-fil-A sauce flirted with my stomach as I went to grab another piece. Every bite of these heavenly potatoes sent my hand thrusting forward to grab another one. It was only mere seconds before I finished the fries. Waffle fries without sauce: 4/10. Waffle fries with Chick-fil-A sauce: 9/10. Overall, Chick-fil-A is an experience that every Canadian should try. Unfortunately it didn't live up to the hype for me, but if you're visiting for a couple nights be sure to grab a few boxes of the Chick-fil-A sauce to take home. Expect more burgers soon...

I swear Dominic made an MS paint drawing of some guidelines as to where to warning shot and where to just KOS... UGH can't find it. Either way, @Manny is right.

Congratulations!

Knowing this, do I have @TheZZL 's stamp of approval?

Already talked through this with the CAs @Jmcdon7, let me know if I have the jmcdon7 stamp of approval on the stuff below. Remove a bunch of pistols around the map (the actual request to the modding team has more info, I'm just too lazy to translate coordinates into locations here Replace AK-47 in poster one-way with a pistol Move first cell one-way teleporter somewhere else Replace poster one-way with the other window that @Infinityward has brightened up One-way on top of VIP cell should be changed into a wall Ensure there's only 1 spawn for Ts in the actual VIP cell Brighten up iso so it's not pitch black Remove AWP from top of soccer Increase armory gun spawn rate to one gun every 1 second or something. You have to wait a long time to get another gun again. Remove every other gun from the armory selection so area of effect is more clear Remove high dive wall

1/29/2019 Changed: To: Notice the removal of "purposely". An admin can often never be 100% sure that someone is purposely making attempts at getting themselves knifed by Ts. As a result, this rule is now entirely up to admin's discretion as to whether they want to act or not on someone baiting. Furthermore, baiting is more than "getting themselves knifed by Ts", and we have a definition of baiting already: Doing something that a CT would never do if they’re trying to stay alive. As such, this definition was used in the above rule.

Thank you boys, it will be lit up.

Huh? We didn't replace any map with this version. There's a good chance of Ts rebelling because there are quite a few guns on the map for Ts to get. These were removed via stripper a few weeks ago, but "added" back in because of some problems we were having and diagnosing. Will have these removed ASAP. One-ways are up for discussion, just need to find time to discuss which to remove. Pretty sure the only areas that are pitch black are in vents and it's intentional - use a flashlight. Anyway, from the complaints you guys are making it seems we can make edits to the map as opposed to removing it outright. The layout of the map and content is fine, it's just the one-ways and pistols that seem to be the large issue.

Thanks (: "John, drop the pistol" was never intended to fall under our special orders, even if it may seem to some that it is one. As pointed out by many in this thread we also didn't have a proper definition of what a special order is in our ruleset. Seeing as the only orders we thought would cause chaos would be those that involved a subset of Ts going to a location, we defined special orders as the following in the rules: Thus, "John, drop the pistol" is not a special order and can be given during !fo and any other time.

1/27/2019 Defined special orders in our ruleset. All rules made previously regarding special orders still stand, and now involve the above definition of special orders. If you don't understand what the above means, we've added a more in-depth definition in our FAQ. Reasoning for this change.

Yeah, feel free to keep making comments. Posts made prior to the change will probably hold less weight than those made after the change where people actually tried the new !fo change on the server. It seems the common worry people have about this change is that CTs and Ts get unmuted at the same time, and this is something I'd want to change too. If there's anything else people have to say on this feel free to do so - this includes re-quoting previous posts that you feel still hold true after actually testing the change.

He thought "Last Request cont." should've been "Last Request count". Non-issue it seems. Thanks anyways @Jmcdon7 (:

1. Need to run this by the other ATs seeing as this issue doesn't warrant enough urgency for a single AT to push out the change without consulting the others. The issue pretty much resolves itself as you and others have pointed out in this thread. Once that's done and a definition is made we can wrap up this thread. 2. Not sure if I wasn't clear enough, but just to re-iterate, we'll wrap up this thread first then finish off whatever discussions were created as a result of this thread. Hope that helps (:

Hey, this discussion was brought to the CA+ level and branched off into a bunch of other discussions so we need to resolve those first before you can expect an AT answer to this thread. Appreciate your patience (: keep discussing.

Hey, we're looking to make our next version of the forums mobile-friendly so an app won't be necessary. Thanks for the question!

If you are getting disconnected or are crashing when attempting to join the server and you've played a newer Minecraft version, go to your .minecraft folder (press CTRL+R, type %appdata% and the folder is in there) and delete your options.txt file. You should be able to join the server after this.

Can't wait to obliterate my regulars tomorrow (:

Hey, we're looking to organize one but we just need to find a date. Thanks for the suggestion (:

Ecstatic to hear the Marketing Team is back, especially with idealist leading it. We have a huge opportunity to grow the community with the staff we have now and I'm happy to see us take advantage of this. Congratulations to everyone who is involved with the team! Congrats to @roux as well (: you've always been a solid source of advice and have never been afraid to voice your opinion. Can't wait to see you push out good stuff from the very top. Grats to @crazedkangaroo for making the Media Team! Thanks to the higher-ups for considering me for this promotion (:

Exactly this. I don't speak for the team with this post, but personally I've logged a shitton of hours undercover on JB over the past few weeks to get a good idea of what the server is like without admins on. It's pretty bad for the CTs when the population is high. I would venture to say that CTs don't work together like they used to; instead we've ventured into a very DM-like feel on Jailbreak where CTs don't work together as often and Ts are left to their own devices and end up rebelling quite easily, especially on higher populations. While not having a warden system has enabled us to take advantage of this incredible niche, as our server population changes this niche can either bite us in the ass or help us grow. It is as a result of our current server state that I felt we needed the CTs needed more tools to be able to have control over not just the Ts but amongst themselves. Every rule in the ruleset has its purpose. Rules that we think are unnecessary or restrictive were put there by some circumstance or scenario which prompted the ATs at the time to draft and implement a rule to prevent that scenario. Admins are only able to enforce rules explicitly in the ruleset, and cannot punish people who aren't breaking the rules. By clarifying grey areas in our ruleset and FAQ we enable admins to have greater control over people who toe the line and cause a detrimental experience for other players. I think it's good to expect admins to be on a server and admin, but with how chaotic it gets at 52 slots I don't blame some of them for not wanting to touch the server. This change is meant to enable CTs to continue having order when the round starts and more players are alive, thus keeping things orderly and (as a side effect) easier to moderate. It seems you're suggesting we loosen things up again, but with our current server population I don't imagine we would be able to do so without significantly causing more chaos and confusion as opposed to the utopia of CTs working together to accomplish a common goal. Prior to this !fo change the server was already in quite a poor state on high population. You mentioned that back in the day slots increased to 52, !fo was added, and "everything else in between", but nothing much has changed since that time and the present. With that being said, all the numbers above (30 seconds, 60 seconds) are arbitrary. 60 seconds is a start, and we can adjust it as we go. I'd rather have it higher than necessary, observe the results, and lower it if necessary as opposed to making it lower and upping it. This change hasn't even been tested on a high population server yet (I implemented this at 11PM last night) so I'm a little curious to see why people are already complaining about how it's causing the server to be more chaotic or less fun. Anyway, thank you for the feedback. This change likely isn't final as mentioned above and so feel free to keep giving feedback as this change gets played out. We're aware that people have suggested alternate means of "fixing" the system, but this change was discussed and agreed on in a JB community meeting 1-2 months ago and was just recently completed at the technical level. I'd rather test this first and then experiment with other solutions if necessary, so don't think that your suggestion is being rejected now that this change was made.

1/21/2019 Today's update courtesy of @BoTo (thank you!) is our first step in improving the CT experience on SG JB. First order will now last 30 seconds if there are less than 30 players on the server. If there are 30 or more players on the server !fo will last 60 seconds instead of 30. This extended time is to enable CTs to have better control over the Ts without there being conflicting orders amongst CTs themselves, as is commonly seen with higher populations. Feedback for this change can be made in this subforum .

Rejected for all the above reasons. Thanks for the suggestion!

^ Thread answer. Prefixes for gang members who belong to a top gang is something we will look into, but likely won't be implemented in the near future due to other higher-priority items in queue. If you aren't already aware, there is an alternative T ranking system besides gangs which you can see by doing !top. Any other ranking systems will likely be rejected for this reasoning (oversaturation of ranking systems). Thanks!
