All Ts

8/17/18 - We now have an extension for First Order which allows the player who grabs it's chat messages to show up in message box. - You all think about it everyday! We added command so you can finally kill yourself!!! - Lowered First Order player number 16 to 12, this is for testing purposes and to make the new function more available. - Added rule about abusing First Order and using it responsibly.

The difference between TTT and JB is that TTT has a clear set of principles that can be identified by the karma plugin that is good or bad. Our CS:GO TTT's plugin of karma was originally a method on GMOD TTT for the server to automatically administrate, often giving players a timeout for being under a certain Karma. This plugin was very successful because of this, as the only negative externality came when things like rankings for RDM came into effect. This same difference I mentioned in my first post is that on Jailbreak you cannot really tell whether someone is playing correctly on CT side by taking solely kills into account, but there are numbers that you could take to make an educated guess. These ways while not fully reliable form an algorithm of sorts if you take administration into account, and the fact that our server has rules. The way for CT's to earn these things in a more reliable, concrete way are things like earning a good chunk of points for winning a round, winning a last request, spending time on the CT team, earning a small amount of points for kills. I agree with you that this might enable some people to play with a more competitive edge even possibly trying to cut around rules or actually break them in some instances. I would argue that while that situation would happen in off-hand instances that the positive externalities that would come from this are better CT's, a much more populated server, and players that are more willing to hold each other accountable for their actions. This all isn't to say that I completely disagree with you (I was very against the TTT Karma plugin back in 2016), but I think putting a ranking system on JB has benefits that far outweigh the cost. Anyone who would decide to start ruining people's time on the server in the name of points would be dealt with as they usually are, and the people who really do want to wreak havoc I doubt really give a shit about their rank on our server in the first place. Separating the teams really fixes the issue in a lot of ways, but also I don't see how even if we did decide to clump it all in one why this type of thing is any worse than gameME stats. If more people express your concern I honest to god won't go ahead with drafting anything up, but I don't feel like it's a serious issue.

Turns out community interaction doesn't help you too much if in a lot of those interactions you're a dickhead. Nevertheless, probably a good place to say that @delirium despite his flaws pours a lot of energy into Steam-Gamers and along with @Black Rain is the biggest connector between the community. This guy filters through so much bullshit, does his job as BD, and still manages to hop on TS, TTT, and JB to hang out. He has been the face for the BD team, takes a lot of shit and I want to say that I appreciate the work you put in a lot. @Liam Brown is actually a saint to this community and for anyone who has needed their ideas put into reality, he's your man. The amount of time and work he has dedicated into fixing the server, pumping out new plugins, updating previous ones, etc to this communities servers is unrivaled. This community would not be the same without him and I think both him and the other people who are busting their ass behind the scenes don't get enough praise, from me personally- thank you. @Mad Dogg and @Prez are just great people and great BD's. These guys are great to have conversations with, they are full of knowledge both regarding the servers and even sometimes Prez will be your summer camp counselor (owo) when you need one. Just wanted to give a little succ to all the BD's Big D's cause lord knows I give you enough shit to go along with it. Thanks from me.

My cute little faggot of a girlfriend has instilled good habits in me so I have started to take my shoes when I come in.

Between that and needing more ideas for Special Days that aren't batshit crazy I could use yours guys help.

Hey man, thanks for bringing this up. The command used to work but then people started making their Discos different. I'm going to look into the plugins you're talking about aswell as do some digging if those don't work on the type of maps you're talking about. I know it's probably not what you want to hear but you can also turn off the music in your settings to get rid of those certain types of maps Disco, I personally never have it on cause I only care about killing Guards and playing.

The system would separate T and CT ranks.

@Nimmy @GhostTitanium @roux If any of you guys wanna do this today I'd give you a big smooch and throw it on the server way later after I get home from work.

8/14/18 - Added timer at bottom of screen that shows time left on the current map. If you think it's ugly/distracting please message me or make a thread.

One of the next [JB Feedback] threads was going to be on this issue but I guess this thread can just serve as it. There is actually a lot of them lined up which is why I keep trying to move them along by bumping them, private messaging people, and mentioning the thread elsewhere. Once these last 2 get more discussion I'll be personally more comfortable moving ahead. The next Jailbreak Community Meeting will likely be sometime during a week later into the night, but I'd like to wait to make a few more changes before having another one being that there are a lot of things ahead.

Last CT has always been an issue on our server, the way other servers handle this is that they let the Last CT gun everyone down. The problem these communities run into (not one that I am making up) is that the Last CT gets to gun down everyone, including 5-10 people who happen to be following the orders or trapped in isolation. I think hitting a middle ground where the Last CT can't camp armory or vents might be a fine distinction. Making it so the Last CT can't camp whatsoever I have an issue with, but on most maps those 2 places draw the round out most. This isn't to say I want it so a CT can't wait in a vent or armory, it's to say that they can't pitch a tent and make everyone watch them delay the inevitable CT loss. The whole problem is something we're aware of, and we've discussed numerous changes but have not yet hit on one. I'd love to hear what everyone thinks about this issue and hopefully throw out some solutions we can think about.

We're aware of this, we're going to be working on an InfoMenu or remove that portion mentioning the command in its entirety. With the panorama update anything that relied on something to open a webpage has pretty much been thrown away, this includes everything from !group to !faq.

Dominic has a 2/3 chance of being permanently banned now. A 1/3 chance of trying to get with kids his age.

Essentially the same as maps like Clouds, Summerjail, SpyvsSpy. Not going to keep a map off cause people fail to give proper orders, it's still by all indicators a good map. People enjoyed it a lot and in the small time it was on the server it amassed a lot of playtime. If more people feel this way we obviously won't readd it, and if after we do readd it people still feel that way we can just remove it.

Despite the fact that there is our deep state conspiracy to keep Tropical Island from being added I'm gonna try to push this one through. There is a game on the second island called flicks which allows you spam Deagles till it crashes the server. If someone wants to message me for SG's version of this map (literally just fixes to the original) and fix it whether with stripper or better yet remove it entirely in hammer then recompile the map let me know. If it doesn't get done I'm not going to readd a map to the server that gives someone the ability to crash the server and clients. http://www.mediafire.com/file/7i7k3um7cq2r2ix/jb_tropical_island_v3_sg.bsp/file

Scumfuck bastard.

Looking into if we can find the old map we edited, if not it won't be added.

shameless whoring

This is being looked into. While there is no absolute need for someone to slay themselves after making a mistake there is nothing wrong with making the kill command more accessible for people in situations where someone would like to.

There are some good ideas here, and I really appreciate your post. The rounddraw, dying, and surviving CT type things I don't know about though because of the possibility of people dragging the round out for points. I would want to make it so that maybe rounddraw and dying don't give you anything, but don't take anything either. I had a post written in my phone in regards to what @Manny and @DML said, but I really would like to use kills in a smart way rather than make it completely void in terms of whether it counts or not.

JB Feedback #3 If you haven't answered the last thread, please answer the [JB Feedback] Special Days thread, as we're going to be making a decision about it very soon. We're going to continue making these threads because a lot of the changes are things we want to know how the current population of regulars feel and want to make sure we keep an open line of communication as much as humanly possible. Ranks & Points on Jailbreak We're looking into making a rank system different from the current, with this in mind we want to know how you guys feel about the ranks we have on the server. In the past it has been considered to reset !rank, while leaving all of the stats on gameME in place but I personally speak for myself when I say I don't think that would be necessarily fair to our long-time players. Now for the new idea we're trying to run by you guys. I want to draft up a system where essentially both T and CT side have ranks similar to TTT's karma. For example lets say one of the ways for them to earn points, for the CT's win a round each of the Guard would get X amount of points. Then lets say for the T side, if a T kills 2 CT's with his knife or kills more than 5 CT's in one round he earns X amount of points. Basically each team would have all these different little ways to earn points that we would have, maybe some rare ones people could discover, or maybe we just throw a list of them all out on the forums. I don't know what this could be called or what the commands for it would be, but this is all the kind of stuff we'd like you guys to comment on here.

B3NJ1 and CLETUS (some of you might know as Blue) are both permanently banned for cheating. We do not tolerate cheating of any sort, if the last few bans on regulars haven't already made that point I hope it is made by now. If you cheat we're going to catch you and you will stay banned indefinitely.

Would have to edit every map to do this, isn't really feasible.
