CG, you got your shit together. That's pretty damn impressive after the community imploded on itself.
Well let me give a little update from where I've been.
Started watching Doctor Who. Started a blog. Played a shit ton of TF2.
Pretty much what my life was for the past month or so. I miss some of you, especially blade because he still spams me by calling me dick biscuit even after my "final resignation."
I'm reinstalling G-Mod, but don't plan on seeing me everyday. I'm pretty glad to be back.
Which server(s) are you resigning from?: All of CG.
Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:42994403
Reason for resignation: I'm done with all of this. It's truly been a great run, this past year with CG. You guys have given me a lot of memories to remember and cherish. I already finished up my last night of TTT, with GMOD uninstalling as I post this. I'll try to keep in contact with good friends through Steam. I highly doubt I'll be apart of the remnants of CG and whatever comes out of this.
Notes: I'll also post parting notes on people. So, post here if you want to confess how I feel about you and my favorite memory with you.
Old Crow- Holy shit, is this guy a badass. He made CG cool and enjoyable. I can still remember when the first time he joined TTT when I was on. Old Crow deserves all the recognition and "women" he can get. It's depressing that things had to become of this, hopefully we can play some game together once in a while. Ahh, that TF2 fun night when we were both pocketing each other. You sir are too good. DON'T LEAVE ME D:
Cortez- Dude, I really wished we could have gotten closer, but we both have pretty busy lives. You always listened to my rants on TTT and tried to relate to what I had to say. You deserved HA so much. I genuinely wish we could have be real life friends. So if you want send me a steam message and we could exchange facebook or something. You damn Canadian.
Red- Again, you were that cool silent type that knows how to game and enjoy time with friends. I wanted to join Hidden once in a while, but it's just not the game for me. Even thought, I knew you are a badass. I wish you the best of luck with your future endeavors, dude. I freaked out when you joined TTT, I hoped you would hate it and never come back.
Additional Comments: DISCLAIMER: Pardon my french, there may be cursing.
I'm feeling the falling out of TTT. The game is riddled with annoyances left and right. So lets break it down and show you I don't feel like clicking on Garry's Mod. I myself don't feel like I'm right for TTT anymore.
1.Everyone taunts after kills, and enjoy when someone leaves/ragequits. Holy shit is this frustrating, people can't even play TTT casually anymore. Everyone's like "YEAH I MADE HIM QUIT IM SO GOOD" People fucking complain about shitboxes especially from other admins.
2. Constant fucking mic/chat spam. Bind spam is so common and nothing is done about it. 3. Admin Lineup. They're really is an exaggeration of just how many admins TTT has. Anyway they join in packs. I don't really feel this is that big of an issue but I'm just saying that TTT is usually only run by 1/2 admin(s) at a time. 4. CG Leadership. Honestly is there anything else to say ? Everything has already been brought up once before. What happened to movie night ? fun nights? 5. I don't feel I'm one with the community of TTT anymore. I'm not young around the 13-15 age group of TTT. I don't share the same ideas of "fun" and all that. That makes sense why I get along much better with older admins like Blade/Scooby. I've played with these guys for days/months before. I love them. When I hop on now, I hardly know anyone other than admins. It's not fun that way.
I'm sorry for the rant. I've had a very stressful start to my Junior year. College/Exams/Clubs/Assignments/Girls/Friends have all piled on me. I've been steadily getting less and less sleep trying to accomplish more stuff. I need time to chillax, and TTT is not for me right now.
I was given permission to make another thread with this concept, I'm going to cross off those that aren't really active/ I don't play with.
Cortez - Good HA, trying to make the server work out and all that jazz with real life. Give the guy some slack. Ashes Relandi - Tendovvi - Good Mystery - TowerSheep - Neltharion - Did he die again ? Arth - Mr.TheDoctor - HolyDeath - IDK Muffins - IDK Blazyd - As of now, I think he's the best senior admin in the lineup. I would even go as far as to trust him with HA if he had the time and TTT needed one. One guy who is definitely responsible and deserves having the admin powers. Nexus - Caboose74 - IDK, I have no idea seeing as only a few people actually admin when on. Yankees - Andredem - Klutonec - Billy - Link - Did he die too ? Sprite - Leetgrain - Gustavio - Bladetwinswords - The life of the party of TTT. He's a great guy who actually is able to be that stigma of "cool admin." When he's on he does his duties and is able to handle it professionally with a hint of insanity. Mercy - Dante - Soap - Okay here we go. I'm going to voice my purest opinion so go ahead and censor me if it's "personal attacking" I will try to keep it objective.[
Spoiler for Hidden:
It's been a very long time since I have regretted a vote. http://www.conjointgaming.com/forum/index.php?topic=10290.0 Soap is so fucking annoying. After every death/bullet SCREAM "SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTBBBBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOXXXXXXX". He constantly calls people "scrubs" "scrubs" "scrubs." I have never fucking seen him do an RDM Complaint/ban someone. Maybe just my scarce play timing, but he never takes the initiative. He slurps, reminiscent of Tendovvi and his habits. He does not deserve admin in any shape or form.
Dylan - Great guy who seems to keep the balance of TTT and keeps me in check sometimes as well. Great guy who deserves the privilege of adminship. Scooby - Pretty much fits my description of Blade as well. Although much more insane. Nurse - Crovv - IDK Old Crow - By far one of the coolest guys you will ever get to meet. His voice/personality brighten up the server and make TTT a lot more fun than without his presence. Death - The level-headed cool admin who resides in the back who actually does a ton of work. He should deserve more credit for his patience/expertise in admining fairly and gathering evidence. Also HA worthy if the need ever arises.
Do you have past admin experience: Admin for TTT for about 8 months ? Something along those lines.
Why you wish to be admin: I think I could populate TF2 with my friends list. Hell, on game night almost everyone in there was on friends list. I want to see our TF2 server succeed again.
What are some good qualities you possess: I will spam my friends with game requests to join. . But in seriousness, I'm a pretty relaxed guy unless you say hate speech, break blatant rules and other stuff that makes you look like a moron.
What country are you from: 'Murica
Age: 16
Microphone: (yes or no) Yes
Additional Notes: Now, I talked to Yahtzee for a little bit. I haven't yet talked to Cortez yet about it, my apologies. My first choice is to retain adminship on both, but its understandable if that's not the case because of my regular status.
Woke up this morning, looked at forums real quick. Saw that I didn't have admin on the site and became really confused. No warnings, nothing.
Fast forward about 10 hrs, (I had after school stuff) I come back to see my adminship returned. No messages telling me what happened with the mishap or what not.
Now considering with what happened with ZM and all the crap, which almost tore CG apart. I think we need to discuss the borders of transparency within the community. No offense to any of the CLs, but there is just a cloud of mystery to what they truly do behind the curtains. We need stuff to be cleared up for us to function properly.
TL;DR
We need a question box or something, that will close the gap between the CLs, Admins, and the players.
Edit: It's fine with the whole admin badge thing. I think the bigger problem is changing how CG functions.
Apparently what I do on the TTT server with my better friends is considered ghosting.
Okay, in some of my T rounds, I ask my best buds on the server what T weapon they want. This pertains to just Rogue, and Taco. I've been playing with them for months and outside of TTT. I do this simply for entertainment factor, and not to purposely troll the server. Their reactions are pretty priceless. Sometimes, they don't shoot back. I see no reason they should, or I have to act as a "conventional" traitor. If the rules have to dictate that much of how an individual wants to play the game, then TTT is not right for me.
*Ghosting: Ghosting, sometimes refered to as metagaming, is the act of informing ALIVE players who the traitors are as a traitor. This includes telling the admins through admin chat.
So by definition am I ghosting ? Why should my friends and I be punished ?
Basic Plot:If you haven't heard of Naruto, then you've been living under a rock for the past decade. Basically, a young naive ninja has to overcome prejudices that he has encountered while being the vessel of a demon fox. He will have to prove his worth to his fellow ninja's and his entire village.
The second "half" of Naruto, which is Shippuden steps the plot another level. It adds a lot more depth to the title character's struggles and introduces new elements. It becomes less of that child show to a moral question/badass fights. Naruto becomes more bearable and less cliche.
Character Development: Way too many characters in this universe, It'll be hard to not find someone you can relate too. However, you will definitely not see as much screentime of your fav. Naruto is the main character, so he is always in your face, and sob story. Also, most characters have very similar backgrounds. So much so it feels as if the writers were being lazy and saying "NOW THEY CAN RELATE!"
You little devil. You're going to start a multi-million dollar franchise and annoy the shit out of every decent anime lover.
Fan Service:Not too bad honestly. Most of the fan service actually has only arisen from fanmade art to compensate the lack of fan service in the show. You won't find strong independent women in this show. They'll probably get bailed out by their boy toys. Pardon my French. Sakura is an annoying b*tch. Sasuke is the emo guy that becomes sooo bloody annoying that his ego is bigger than the f*cking snakes he summons.
Sub or Dub:Oh.My.God. Avoid the Dub English like it's the plague. Watch it in Sub English on Crunchyroll or something. I don't know about the Shippuden but I can only assume it's just as bad.
I apologize in advance.
Verdict:Ok here's the thing. Naruto made all the beloved animes we love today possible. It pretty much along with Bleach opened the Western market up. They have established shonen as the metaphorical kings of anime. So we do have to give credit to them. I highly doubt that someone here hasn't at least heard of the show, let alone watched it as a kid. Yes, I know the series is not over, (the manga is very close to its conclusion.) So unless they are going to continue with another plot line, WHICH WILL F*CK OVER THE SERIES. Naruto is seeing its final days. Let us reflect on what a cash cow this franchise was.
Do you have past admin experience: If you didn't know already, was admin for TTT for about 5-6 months.
Why you wish to be admin: It seems that CG is going to be going through a bump in the road; I would like to help again.
What are some good qualities you possess: If it's too much to ask I would like to retain my former powers as a regular. Mainly because we're still running ulx, and I haven't forgotten the commands. If that's a problem, then it'll be fine.
What country are you from: Murica.
Age: 16
Microphone: (yes or no): Of course.
Additional Notes: There will not be a change in my current play schedule. I have 4 AP classes this year, managing three clubs,etc. By retaining my adminship I'll be able to help CG more. BTW, I'll try to make TTT fun again.
