"How do you open doors?" "How do you walk? How do you move?" :gtfo: >:(
We don't have enough man power for this! :( We are gonna need more VIPS playing or more VIPS. lol
It's gonna be awful. More "trolls". More kids. More retards. More Rdmers... :'(

They usually never come back after that day. But for that time right then and there it's annoying, and a lot of times nothing can be done about it because no VIPS are on.
-
someone is a bit passive aggressive
-
More "trolls". More kids. More retards.
Makes the game easier, it's a good time to get practice in.
More Rdmers...
As Deacon stated, fill out a report if it bugs you that much. There's a new Karma System to boot.

Aren't I always? lol ;p

And get them banned after they cause shit and leave? Not very helpful. lol
"There's a new Karma System to boot."
But... that only made it worse ;_; Even RDMers have high karma...
-

Then why VIPs and admins should ban them?
-
>implying half the people on TTT aren't already retards
-
There will be more Gavins.
god no

A lot of you seem to be completely missing the point. They should be banned/kicked right then and there.
Someone coming 4 hours later after all the bull shit happens isn't going to help at all. This isn't hard stuff to get.
>implying half the people on TTT aren't already retards
>implying it hasn't and won't get worse
Also they are taking all the spots in game ;_;
The server was full yesterday and there were only 2 regulars besides myself.
And everyone who wasn't a regular was super retarded.
...and this is only the beginning!
There will be more Gavins.
god no
Yea, and seeing a Gavin is a troll, I imagine he will troll in TTT and influence others to do so.
-
You know in the time i have played TTT in the last week(say this because my gmod fucked over once again and i wont be able to play for an undetermined time...), most of the people who would come to rdm and all that were people familiar with the game.
The 1 or 2 guys i met that were new to the game, were actually cool, even tough they didn't get any traitors and once or twice made a mistake, they weren't shoting everyone they see or something like that.

Um... yeah, getting the evidence, getting it up, and then getting somebody to respond is good if they come back, I agree, bu the way you state that... makes me think you have no idea what a contradiction is in the first place.
[It's not like people have to be actively posting there to be reasonably annoyed about a potential influx of idiots ruining games - rdm-and-run faggotry, etc, especially with the fact that VIPs and admins are not always on.
[And what is this shit about only being able to upvote a post? At least you could negate a + vote you accidentally gave before]

I try to get on as I much as a I can, but other things do take up a lot of time - I have to work, go to school, workout, and have a social life.
But still, I do try to maintain the servers as much as possible.

Honestly Hideo, you're cool ingame but on the forums you're a fucking dick.

Part of me is tempted to apply for VIP - though I know a few members with which this idea would only spark a needless shit storm.

You're right hideo. instead of trying to change it we should complain about it. the fact of the matter is we do not have enough ranking members to moderate the servers 24-7. we will not have that for quite a long time, actually. since we don't have the time, that is what the report system is for. a quick shot of the damage logs and a steam id. its as simple as you make it. and i don't see what your contradiction comment was about. so yes, in that moment, nothing will happen. so lets not throw our arms up and pout like a 10 year old that lost my pokemon game.

I never even heard of this guy before.

In all honesty, I tried hard to not reply to this post, but he is a dick on the forums. (and ingame sometimes)

I'm giving constructive criticism. It's not all just bitching. My suggestion is just simply to get more VIPS. We only have about 4 active TTT VIPs.(Alkaline, Juan, Foofoojack and Lazer) I wanna say 1/2 of the time there is no VIP on at all.
"so yes, in that moment, nothing will happen. so lets not throw our arms up and pout like a 10 year old that lost my pokemon game."
But that's when the problem is, that is when it should and needs to be addressed. Of course it isn't a problem for you. If it happens to you, you can simply kick them, the rest of us can not.
A lot of times the RDMers and retards don't come back but for the hour or so that they are there, is when it's annoying and should be dealt with. Banning them a few hours later won't solve much.

There are some okay ones and such, but ever since all the popular people starting playin it, dumb crap happens more often.

So I've been told, my first post was meant to be semi-sarcastic, but it's hard to tell a person's tone in just writing.
I try to get on as I much as a I can, but other things do take up a lot of time - I have to work, go to school, workout, and have a social life.
But still, I do try to maintain the servers as much as possible.
And we love you for it <3

He does indeed.
666? u r evil go way peaz
I never even heard of this guy before.
You probably never play TTT then.
I'm a dick in game too though ;_;
Well just super sarcastic most the time though many would say that is dickish.
Can no one ever see when I'm being sarcastic/trying to be funny.
This is the only forum I've been on that people think I'm 100% serious. lol
My topic was pretty much meant to be a joke...
Though with serious replies, I'll obviously give serious answers.
-
Hideo, you gotta learn when to be a dick.
If I didn't know when or when not to be one, about everyone would hate me.

oh god what a shitstorm

This fucking drew the line,
You're not, this is the internet, everyone will be a dick eventually and will treat people like shit,
Just.
Stop.
Please.
It will prevent less of a headache.
-
NOP, WE GOTTA BE NICE TO THE NEWFAGS WHO JUST RDM AND LEAVE AND NEVER BOTHER TO GO ON RND TTT AGAIN.
I've played TTT somewhat recently, but if the tard generation rates are high with flooding TTT, it's going to be hectic for the while.
The RDM rate isn't completely batshit awful, however calling people out is. There's pretty much no point of calling people out when everyone/majority of the server is new. Can only rely and trust the regulars. lol
I called out guys so many times, died mid sentence and no one did anything. And I was detective.
Same thing happened with Juan lol.
It can be so bad it's funny.
but also kinda sad. :(

You're right. A one hour ban is so much more efficient than a paperwork trail.
Look.
I know you feel like nothing good will come of it.
I can't change your opinion.
I really can't, and I know better.
But these are the avenues you can take, and they are the options you have.
We will not be promoting more people to VIP unless they deserve to be promoted, and I can certainly tell you that the attitude taken by most of the regs that reporting is a waste of time is not a good mindset to be in. Regs must also follow the rules they claim to know, or they will suffer the standard punishment + a demotion.
At any rate.
Think what you will.
What do I know.
Totally haven't played much TTT.

The kick/ban for when it is happening at least causes a better environment so players aren't annoyed and it doesn't ruin their fun.
I didn't say reporting is useless. I am just saying, it just doesn't address the problem that is occurring at that present time, only for the future.
What should we do if someone is RDMing after we report them? Just deal with it?
It really is annoying when shit on the server happens, and nothing is done about it. It's more of a problem nowadays a well, because the karma system sadly isn't as harsh ever since the update, so when people RDM it doesn't hurt their karma to much unless it's massive RDM.
I like you Deacon, you are a cool dude. I just wanna say that right now so I'm not looking like a complete ass while trying to make a point.
-

Yes, but we cannot have enough people to be there at every second. And do you ask for help when you need it? Message one of us, or an admin?
I didn't say reporting is useless. I am just saying, it just doesn't address the problem that is occurring at that present time, only for the future.
Which is still better than ignoring it altogether. Which, I may add, shows that we are lax on rules and people think they can get away with more. And they are right, because there are less reports out now that there are worse players.

I would say gather your evidence and call a VIP/Admin at the same time. If no one answers you, then yes. That is your only option.

Agreed.

Thank you, I guess. And you just need to form coherent arguments and think about what you mean, otherwise it will look like you're an ass, which I might add, I never said or implied.

*@hideo
You gotta admit that it isn't the brand new players who fuck up the game... it is the percentage of trolls and smartasses that come with the new players.
Also, i do believe the rank system takes that much time for people to get VIP because it takes a lot of time to see not only if a player is active or not, but also his way of reasoning and reacting against any problem that can pop up.
-
this is a general question... is sourcebans down or something like that stuf because there are 3 reports i made on the exact same rule being broken and i belive some of those guy are still causing problem nowadays

Alright, I'll be sure to do that more, though often times people are busy/not on.

While I guess it is better then nothing it doesn't solve the problem when it needs solving. But hey, I'll start reporting more I guess. I just hope you guys are ready to come on a lot ;)

Well, I just wanted to make sure it didn't look like I was attacking you or anything. I like all the regulars on the server. Though I do have a few problems what some people do, but that is a completely different topic, and better to not be discussed really, as I don't want to cause shit lol. ( though I guess this thread in a sense caused shit and I didn't mean too )

I will agree that some do that. However I think it mostly comes from the new guys and new guys who are trying to troll.
"Also, i do believe the rank system takes that much time for people to get VIP because it takes a lot of time to see not only if a player is active or not, but also his way of reasoning and reacting against any problem that can pop up."
Regarding VIP I gotta say it kinda sucks how hard it is to get. I tried to get it a month or so ago when everything was awful and literally no VIPs were every on, but I had very few vouches, because no VIPs knew me, but I don't see how that it was my fault when they never came on.
I personally think regulars should get some say in the matter of people becoming VIPs.

when i opened this thread and i was like "wat"

I'm subbed to them lol. It's Rooster Teeth, they are quite famous on youtube. (They've got like 1 mill subs? I think)
If you mean the video itself I just clicked on it because it went into my sub box and watched it until the end and saw the TTT thing and decided to come here and bitch about it. lmao
-
Alright, I'll be sure to do that more, though often times people are busy/not on.
You know, admins can deal with problems without even going in-game, right?
I get contacted by plenty of people in-game all the time. They send me a few screenshots, and within minutes, the situation is handled.
I can certainly say you've never done that though.
-
My suggestion is just simply to get more VIPS. We only have about 4 active TTT VIPs.(Alkaline, Juan, Foofoojack and Lazer) I wanna say 1/2 of the time there is no VIP on at all.
I would definitely get on more then just on weekends if the servers wouldn't go up at 10pm at my local time.
Also keep in mind that some of those rdmers might keep coming back later with different names.
-
I am really starting to like the way one TTT server I play on [but can't now since it won't be back up until their admin fixes it, when gmod 13 comes out]:
Guests: Can start votes, vote in - long cooldown period between votes to start
Respected: [like Regular] - same
Moderator: [like VIP] - much shorter cooldown, if any at all, can also directly kick or ban
Admin: - everything and more.
Tweak that to the system servers like rNd, Nexus, etc use, that could be something like:
Guests: can vote only
Regular: Can vote, and start votes only; cooldown period between votes [rest of round? 5 minutes? 10 minutes? 15 minutes?]
VIPs: Unchanged
Admins: Unchanged.
I mean, sure we are very used to the current system, but in my opinion this simple change can help a lot. It would let the regulars, who are on a hell of a lot more than VIPs it seems have some ability - albiet limited - to handle problem players. [and lets face it, for regulars I bet some of us feel pretty goddammed useless if there is a problem player and we can only vote on a nonexistent vote - since the one(s) who can start votes aren't on] That way we don't have to worry so much about getting VIPs on, or admins on, or the case of some guy RDMing, and leaving before a VIP or admin gets on... or the case of some guy going on, rdming, and leaving just as people start realizing what is happening/go to get proof.
Just an idea.
-
Guests: can vote only
Regular: Can vote, and start votes only; cooldown period between votes [rest of round? 5 minutes? 10 minutes? 15 minutes?]
VIPs: Unchanged
This would pretty much bring the same problems when there were a respected system. Retarded votekicks/bans + retarded guest votes.
Also giving such power to regs an not giving any more power to VIPs would be illogical since then there wouldn't be much of a difference between those ranks considering how it takes to get those ranks, however I wouldn't mind if that power would be temporarily given to regs to see how it goes, but I'm absolutely against giving the vote power to guests.

oh god...
old respected system ...
getting banned, reason: "I WANTED TO RDM MOO YOU FKER"
also i remember once something broke and you wouldn't get kicked of the server, but it would register the ban, so when the map changed or you tried to join again, you would alredy be banned and couldn't join until the ban expired... i had only 1 hour to play that day and still got randomly banned because "IT DOSN'T BAN YOU, DON'T GET MAD HURR"
Looking at the regular board, and people saying "He T baits sometimes but is a good guy, +1", i'm not really sure if doing that would be a good idea.

I can certainly say you've never done that though.
Oh? Didn't know it could be handled that fast. But alright, I'll start doing that now. I expect you to keep your word though. ;)

I'd like to see it, most regulars are responsible. Maybe just make it just a KICK though? So VIPS still keep their power. And obviously if the person comes back and acts retarded more, they need to be banned, so it would indeed require a report.
I think it could work out nicely. It sounds nice.
Though it might just sound nice on paper... but it obviously isn't in action (yet), so who is to say really? It could be just the thing the server needs.

We've actually had that system in the past. It is the reason why VIP is so hard to obtain today.

Did it not work out? Before my time. lol
Maybe have it more strict? Only one votekick allowed for regulars, can only be used every 30 minutes or so. So it isn't abused.

The problem was that A LOT of people abused of the privilege of starting votekicks/bans and also used them for the wrong reasons.
Pretty much a lot of guys being "do what i want or i will start a ban on you".

Aw, such a shame... Maybe they should make a SUPER regular. lmao

when the system was first added it was suggested to give regulars and VIPs a little more power.
VIPs being able to insta kick, no votes.
Regs being able to start votekicks.
I can't remember why it people didn't want that, i will look around if i can find this
I found the discussion thread of the new system: http://forum.randomgs.com/index.php/topic,303.75.html (http://forum.randomgs.com/index.php/topic,303.75.html)
I actually have an idea, i doubt it will gets to be done or anything but w/e, better to say it than not.
It would be nice that is there aren't any VIPs online, regulars gets the ability to start votes.

This.
I understand some of the complaints, or fears about making the amendment but fer being on, and being moderator on a server set up like this, I can safely say the benefits outweigh the *potential* issues if implemented correctly... wonder if we can get Dark Pacifist on to chime in, him being an admin on said server.
