    Notice how he didn't want to go any further than managers. Otherwise his charts would've looked like this:

    A little over two years ago myself and a friend wrote a paper about the staff structure of sG. Well, it's finally published and is recognized as the gold standard among virtual communities in the academic world. The journal article can be viewed (for free) here:

    Thanks for all the staff members (and my coauthor) for their time in the creation of this journal article. I have several journal articles on the back burner. From time to time, I'll ask the community for assistance in writing these articles (people usually let me down). However if you want to coauthor a paper, let me know.
     
    For now, when people ask you about your clan, just tell them to research us in their school library or visit the Library of Congress.

    2. SERVER kicked, you idiot.
     
    3. karma has multiple members begin yelling and flaming me the moment i join the channel and i hadnt said a word. multiple people said they COULDNT even hear me when i responded because YOUR people were drowning me out.. then you proceed to kick me when i respond to dmata. 10/10
     
    4. your bias towards your friends is undeniable with your admin on MULTIPLE occasions and there's a reason so many people have been hating on you all the time. even cman, who is neutral, says you clearly have bias. but again, delusional you are.
     
    amazing how dense and ignorant you are honestly. it's mindblowing. you're a shit admin. that is all. peace.

    My last comment in regards to all of this shit is that all of the drama, complaints, hostility, flaming, and whatever else that is between many many people has all revolved around ONE person. and that is KARMA.
     
    I already know nothing will happen (of course) so do what you will. But I'm biting my tongue from here on out. GLHF

    Dylan reacted to Muezza Ansar al-Fitnah in Rules regarding racism   
    Hey so I was playing on your server today when an admin warned me for racism. I had no idea what I had said until he pointed out my use of the "n" word. Yikes.
    Before I go on, I want to be clear that I'm not trying to stir up trouble, provoke anybody, or just be a general nuisance. I don't know if I've played on your server in the past, but I enjoyed my time on it today and I think the staff is pretty laid back and chill. I appreciate that Irony (the staff who warned me) tried to explain the rule and directed me to the forums, rather than simply kick me or mute me. I can respect the restraint.
    But I seriously have a problem with the apparent rule. I absolutely used the "n" word. I use it so often that I don't even consciously add it to my sentences anymore. Regardless, I can confidently say that I never said anything racist. My use of the word "niggah" was benign. It was a casual pronoun, not a derogatory insult. 
     
    There's no such thing as a 'racist word'. A word can have a negative connotation attached to it, sure, but it's meaning is defined by context and perception. Beyond a small minority, I highly doubt anybody is going to be offended by the word I used, within the context I used it. I just can't fathom how casually referring to a friend as "nigga" could possibly be construed as an expression of racism. That's just not how language works. 
     
    Now I completely understand the reasoning behind your rule! Trust me, I really do. I know how common it is to have mindless idiots pop into the server spewing inflammatory remarks simply to get a rise out of people. Trolls exist, of course. And I understand that having these rules makes the server more accessible and accommodating to any demographic. You guys are a community. You want to keep things inviting and friendly. 
    But I really feel that arbitrarily banning words for their perceived negative baggage is just not the morally correct choice. I'd even go as far to say that it's divisive and alienating.
     
    Again I'm honestly not trying to be contrary or annoying. I just seriously feel that the rules should be adjusted to address obvious racist intent and hate speech, rather than blacklist individual words.
    The word is part of my vocabulary, but I'm not a racist person by any stretch of the imagination, and I'm sure there are plenty of people just like me. Is it really alright to punish us for thoughtlessly letting a word slip? I just can't wrap my head around it.
     
    I hope you guys give this a little thought and approach it objectively. 
    Either way, thanks for reading!

    I just think it's quite sad that a few of you continue to reply because you can't fathom the fact that you're being trolled.
     
    This is the internet, if you can't handle some jokes, you need serious help.
     
    Still fishing for that bait tho.

    Dylan reacted to thorgot in Preventing a T to delay the round for hours.   
    Agreed. I think a rule against camping with intent to delay the round is a good idea. While I don't like terrorists camping in unfair spots or in vents in general, I don't think there should be a rule against that. What I have an issue with is camping in a difficult area or obscure vent simply to make people wait longer for the next round. For example, the top of extreme climb on clouds, or the hentai room vent on dojo. Camping there (and never peeking) doesn't get you more kills and significantly decreases the game quality for everybody else.

    Races that deal lightning damage should be absorbed by Thor. Getting dealt 120 damage by ravinick's lightning shield without healing it back is kinda getting annoying now. The fact that Thor isn't doing what it's supposed to do isn't cool and unfair as it's a bad race right now :/

    Dylan reacted to coopacarp in #Staff is bad :(   
    You should fix your staff though, Barry (admin) allowed a guy named Iron (some level of staff) to call me "Autistic" (which I took highly offensive)  but when I said "nig" I was kicked for racism... That is not right, and when I killed a guy as traitor barry didn't see any bodies 'nor did he see me kill anyone but he shot me on susp which was apparently not allowed (I was slain by barry for it a round or 2 ago...)So your 2 staff members abused/targeted me and my friend without consequence which is just not fair when all we wanted was some fun... I was also banned for 60 minutes I believe because I said Iron had down syndrome (If he can call me autistic why can I not say he has downs?) They said for the reason of the ban (Offensive to staff and toxic) but I was actually having fun not being "toxic" until these 2 abused the shit out of me and my friend... Like fr that's irritating, wouldnt you be "toxic" if 2 guys abused you while you had fun? Also Iron wanted this "report" and said he hoped I did it after I was banned... Happy birthday
