jesus christ @BoMwhat are you letting happen here

What in the fuck is this

feels like not too long ago the boys were trying to get john to apply for admin and dubbed him "Teamspeak CA" mans climbed his ranks and made it to the top. Thanks for all the hard work and enjoy retirement bud

Y’all know homophobic means your afraid of gay people right?

What criteria does the Events team fill that makes them eligible for an award for being on the team that the CA's don't check off and therefore are not worth an award?

We've had shitty SMs, shitty IAs and shitty BDs, hell we've had shitty POs, so whats your point? We've had shitty design team managers, should we strip your award and give you SOTM instead? By not giving CAs an award but doling one out cause 4 people thought someone would be good for an event team is basically saying CAs are useless. Here's an award if you can add shit to a calendar but handing out bans and watching demos all day long, go fuck yourself.

I think CA should get an award. Sure they aren’t necessarily “higher ups” but it’s your first step into the other side of SG. They don’t have a lot of power to implement ideas but they pour over complaints and keep up with them consistently. They are the next most trusted people for the ATs to bounce their ideas off of. Charlie is the perfect example of someone who deserves an award for the work she’s done over the years. It’s just an award and there’s one already completed and ready to deploy. If anyone deserves an award it’s those that sit in between higher staff that focus less on interacting with their community and more on making sure the server and logistics are in order and the regular player base. I disagree on making an award for regular admins though.

Lisa tell you that?

Not very convincing dawg

If it's not an egregious act then why would you say its akin to saying faggot anyway? Let me make sure I have your words down correctly. Using a compound word where you're clearly just tacking on the f-slur to another word is akin to using the word itself. I don't see any wiggle room here. According to what you thought, typed, proofread, and posted, oldfag is no different from fag. So are you clearly not conveying your thoughts correctly or clearly misinformed?

I've been using the term oldfag and newfag for longer than you've had a computer. Not one time had anyone in 15 years thought I was trying to skirt around a harassment or homophobic rule. If you want to say your banning "compound words" to avoid confusion is one thing, but if you think for a second I've ever said that to "avoid the homophobic slur/harassment rule" you're so wrong its unreal. This level of deductive reasoning is why "up to admin discretion" is such an impossible thing to implement.

people bouta find out they not as good of friends as they thought XD

You thought. @Noob^ ez 100$

Lego arena goated

I haven’t seen any real improvement in the ZE server in general minus a few spurts here and there. If the effort is being put in the results are not coming in. I don’t mean that in a bad way it’s just the reality. The higher management called the main ZE player base a bunch of pedophiles. For better or worse, right or wrong, we are reaping what was sewn. Our name in the ZE community is more than damaged. I just personally think it’s time to swallow the bitter pill. It is what it is. I think efforts would be better put somewhere else before you burn out a good staff member who puts their all into a server that does not realistically have a chance. There is a chance if done correctly in which I’m not denying but at some point you have to cut your losses. I’d say after almost 2 years of near 0 population that time has come. On to greener pastures

My opinion on the ZE server coming from a place of having seen it at its highest high and powerless low, it needs to go. Nobody cares about it like the managers who ran it when it was at its height. I don’t mean to say that negatively but if you think anyone currently managing it put in as much work as Wesker or Leon Mordecai did your just plain wrong. SG ZE is a thing of the past. An old achievement that no longer servers SG. It’s not a flagship server anymore. It’s a painful reminder of a beautiful past. this man put together a completely logical post using real statistics and logistics with an unbiased opinion. You saying ZE is SGs flagship server is an opposite, understandable, and incorrect statement. That would be equal to me saying Napalm is the flagship server of SG since I was around when it was the reason ZM became SG and expanded the community. It became a relic of the past that nobody who joined after it’s glory days would ever say it wa a good idea to make one.

In b4 thread saying it’s annoying getting smoked by a t because you had to give them a chance to drop a high caliber rifle

Lets do it

You want to see the rest of the wins or?

I'm by no means the best aimer and yet I was able to climb to top 3k and still going so I'm not sure you're correct in your assessment. The spray is also not random. If you spray at a wall, 10/10 its gonna be a number 7 with a vandal. Maybe it's not as consistent as CSGO sprays but it's not csgo so your point there is invalid. B is not crucial to defend at all and is one of the easiest sites to retake in the game besides b on haven. Here's my resume:

yea well your mom kid

Can I not be on @WavYteam all games

Sadge

It’s been a hell of an era comrade.

I agree with the sentiment but I think with each newer generation of staff the focus on what is important is getting more and more obscure. In my head its simple, you don't need to "crackdown" on gay jokes. Use common sense. If someone is bullying someone because they're gay or whatever their sexuality is and that person is genuinely bothered by it then it should be dealt with accordingly. When you make a rule that says "no homophobic slurs" it turns into one kid saying "gay" and every single person within ear shot screaming "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HE SAID IT OH MY GOD REPORT REPORT". Taking a step in the right direction doesn't come with adding superficial rules to look good, it comes to the people who are administrating the servers to make a conscious effort to see normal online banter from genuine hate speech. If i hear someone on a server saying "you dumb faggot, go suck dick you gay piece of shit" than I should have the ability to discern if the people are joking and if I can't then I should send a message to that player asking if he is feeling harassed or offended. Maybe the best way to tackle this is to empower the current staff who administrate the servers to mediate issues as they pop up. You don't need to be combative with people you can easily just be like "Hey man that wasn't cool I don't mind some banter but your starting to cross the line. I'm gonna have to ask you to chill out a bit or I'll have to start doling out some punishment" This is the internet not your public community center. It's for gamers to come together and have a good time and play games. While there should be a general level of respect between everybody I don't think you need to have a crackdown on homophobia. Just recognize a genuine asshole when he or she appears.
