[QUOTE=Flicky;52762630]I can see how this thread would give a vibe like that on first glance; given the OP and the consistent moderator posting. It took me a few pages of reading bantering shitposts to catch onto the fact that it wasn't like that at all.[/QUOTE] At first the threads actually did have a modicum of self respect and did take itself more seriously when pressing issues were actually apparent or changes had been in the spotlight, namely newpunch. Now as things begin to get resolved there are less issues that are so largely apparent or at least severe that everyone at once would talk about it, so now that complacency sets and a mood is sensed shitstains like me come in with witty banter that is only relevant to certain posts or complaints about said witty banter. fortunately for all of you im great as a person in general and so is my posting and as such i will once again recommend that my posts act as a guideline for decent posting all over this website but i'll take a moderator position as consolation
[QUOTE=Snickerdoodle;52762188]I can't remember what page it was on but someone was complaining about how the navyseal copypasta in GIF form would be really shitty for data. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/kn4IgNf.gif[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/k6i2imp.gif[/IMG] They're hardly a third of a megabyte[/QUOTE] They can be even smaller, you can make it show each paragraph for like 1.5 seconds before moving to the next gif frame with the next paragraph. Slide show.
[QUOTE=myon;52762344]I guess if we look at the bright side, a return of the rust forums are a great opportunity for the less active mods to get busy[/QUOTE] Yeah no, Pascall still gonna be lazy. :v:
Let me live you cretins
There's no living for the lazy, get to work, slacker.
[QUOTE=Reagy;52761808]Yep, I'm personally hoping we get another so we got two to babysit the gmod section because its cancer having to go into there. No one reports shit so you gotta dig out the trash and if you're not really into gmod or lua, its very difficult to make solid decisions on the potentially bad posts.[/QUOTE] I try but it takes two reports to go through :<
Hey how do I embed Streamable content?
I can't keep track of these new mods. Seems like every time I load a page there is a new one.
since we are getting new mods, can we bring back seano12 and mod him
[QUOTE=joshuadim;52763160]since we are getting new mods, can we bring back seano12 and mod him[/QUOTE] I'd rather have big man tyrone than seano
[QUOTE=joshuadim;52763160]since we are getting new mods, can we bring back seano12 and mod him[/QUOTE] Nuh uh, we need to mod Ehmmett first.
I mean hey, He-who-shall-not-be-named got mod for a day (for some reason) why not seano12
[QUOTE=BlindSniper17;52763173]Nuh uh, we need to mod Ehmmett first.[/QUOTE] Unban Xabin and mod him
[QUOTE=BlindSniper17;52763173]Nuh uh, we need to mod Ehmmett first.[/QUOTE] Did you miss the memo? he's already red mod :^) [url]https://facepunch.com/member.php?u=208104[/url]
[QUOTE=Zonesylvania;52763172]I'd rather have big man tyrone than seano[/QUOTE] Imagine when someone got banned their ban reason was posted as a Big Man Tyrone video of him reading it out loud
[QUOTE=AkujiTheSniper;52763190]Imagine when someone got banned their ban reason was posted as a Big Man Tyrone video of him reading it out loud[/QUOTE] Oh Jesus, I would kill for a Big Man Tyrone narration of the ban text from WickedPlayer kills the Universe.
[QUOTE=BlindSniper17;52763198]Oh Jesus, I would kill for a Big Man Tyrone narration of the ban text from WickedPlayer kills the Universe.[/QUOTE] [url]https://secure.jotformeu.com/dignity14/TyroneVideos[/url] Would cost $105, based on 204 words and Full HD (Duh.) $40 extra for a full suit/tie. So. Community fund?
[QUOTE=BlindSniper17;52763198]Oh Jesus, I would kill for a Big Man Tyrone narration of the ban text from WickedPlayer kills the Universe.[/QUOTE] Put in a Community Fund application for that. [sp]maybe actually do it[/sp]
Pay Tyrone to read the entire I need help with a few models thread
[QUOTE=Pascall;52761817]Nobody's sitting around saying "dang how can I piss off redfiend today" like the mods wanna play video games with the community sometimes. I don't cuz I got other shit to do but posts about said video game doesn't effect me cuz it takes two seconds to read it and then move on.[/QUOTE] I don't really agree with Redfiend on the mods abusing their powers here but I can definitely agree it's annoying to have to wade through a bunch of posts about game server stuff in a thread that's meant to be about discussing the forums. Even if it's related to the community fund, the server itself is irrelevant to forum discussion so it'd fit a lot better in the community fund discussion or games in progress subforums. For someone with no interest in HL:DM at all but an interest in forum discussion it's annoying to have to deal with. You can just skim over them but then you risk missing something actually important and unlike having it in another thread there's not really an option for someone like me to just filter it out easily. [QUOTE=joshuadim;52763160]since we are getting new mods, can we bring back seano12 and mod him[/QUOTE] I vote we permaban him again instead, just to be safe.
[QUOTE=Alice3173;52763439]You can just skim over them but then you risk missing something actually important and unlike having it in another thread there's not really an option for someone like me to just filter it out easily.[/QUOTE] good grief it's not like there's pages and pages of hl1dm stuff every day. Hell outside that recent 11 consecutive post example it's almost always just 1 post that i end up cleaning up later anyways lol. This thread has a history of going off on minor tangents all the time so again I don't see what the big deal is. Not that it matters since Hezzy's already said it's fair game. [editline]9th October 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Trekintosh;52762959]Hey how do I embed Streamable content?[/QUOTE] click download on the streamable video menu, and use that url in [VID] tags. That's how i've done it, but it expires after a few weeks. That said I'm not sure why Scatch. wasn't able to see it earlier tho so maybe it's a bit screwy? maybe just takes some time to activate for others idk.
[QUOTE=postal;52763452]good grief it's not like there's pages and pages of hl1dm stuff every day. Hell outside that recent 11 consecutive post example it's almost always just 1 post that i end up cleaning up later anyways lol.[/QUOTE] Well it certainly doesn't help with people going off on tirades about it but the thread has certainly been quite a lot more active than usual because of the server posts and discussion. There were like 110ish new posts for me today when I got to the thread. The only time that typically happens is when there's a prolonged discussion going on. [QUOTE]This thread has a history of going off on minor tangents all the time so again I don't see what the big deal is. Not that it matters since Hezzy's already said it's fair game.[/QUOTE] It does but server discussion is more than just a minor tangent, at least in my opinion. While there's the occasional banter that's not really relevant to the thread topic most of it's still at least vaguely related to the thread's main subject. Server discussion really isn't. And just because Hezzy has made a decision on the subject doesn't mean we can no longer discuss it if we disagree.
Solution: make complaining about hldm bannable. Limits the hldm to one post per day at most.
[QUOTE=Alice3173;52763476]Well it certainly doesn't help with people going off on tirades about it[/quote] yea and that's the only real problem here lol. if it wasn't for that all this hl1dm shit would be a blip on the radar with all the discussions going on here. Hezzy already established that it's fair to post here so anyone still going on tirades because we're organizing games with the community is just being a whiner at this point. [quote]It does but server discussion is more than just a minor tangent, at least in my opinion. While there's the occasional banter that's not really relevant to the thread topic most of it's still at least vaguely related to the thread's main subject. Server discussion really isn't.[/quote] again it's only a few posts we're talking about here. and besides server discussion is totally relevant here when it's a server that's for the forum lol. [quote]And just because Hezzy has made a decision on the subject doesn't mean we can no longer discuss it if we disagree.[/QUOTE] and it'll be a total waste of time lol. we're gonna keep organizing games with the community in whatever way works best, especially since it's working so well and we get tons of people to join whenever we make a quick mention we're playing. If that really bothers a handful of people so much so that they can't stop saying over and over again how much it bothers them then maybe they need to take a step back for a bit and realize how silly they're being, because it takes all of a couple seconds to just scroll past a quick discussion that is once again admin approved to be here.
[QUOTE=Alice3173;52763476]And just because Hezzy has made a decision on the subject doesn't mean we can no longer discuss it if we disagree.[/QUOTE] Well actually yeah it kinda does because if we're just rehashing the same thing and people have been told to move on, it'd be derailing the thread Which of course would be a huge accomplishment for anybody considering the casual nature of this thread
Alice, Redffiend, ever heard of the Streisand effect?
[QUOTE=postal;52763503]again it's only a few posts we're talking about here. and besides server discussion is totally relevant here when it's a server that's for the forum lol.[/QUOTE] Well we're probably just going to have to agree to disagree on this one then. I simply can't see it as relevant to the forums even if it is a forum server. [QUOTE=Hezzy;52763517]Well actually yeah it kinda does because if we're just rehashing the same thing and people have been told to move on, it'd be derailing the thread[/QUOTE] It wouldn't really derail things more than the off-topic discussion we already tend to get from my point of view, though it would definitely be pointless to just continuously rehash the same points repeatedly. As far as I'm aware we haven't quite reached that point yet though, have we?
[QUOTE=Alice3173;52763541] it would definitely be pointless to just continuously rehash the same points repeatedly. As far as I'm aware we haven't quite reached that point yet though, have we?[/QUOTE]We've been at that point for a while.
Nobody's stopping anyone from discussing other aspects of the forum. Ignore the server posts and uhhhhh move on? Ask a question if you have one? Talk about other parts of the forum if you want?? Discuss whatever you wanna discuss as far as the forum goes. It's totally allowed! But the server announcements are gonna continue regardless cuz a lot of people are having fun with it. End of, really.
Hey mods could you like, stop posting about HL:DM ...when I am at work or sleeping. I want to join. [editline]9th October 2017[/editline] i already told some guy in the discord, I think it was some green guy, but the invite link in the doscord link on top of the page has expired
