Please remove the deads ability to use props from the server before it kills it. There is 0 reason I should be 100-0 by one prop from someone who died almost instantly.
 
I am a big fan of the notion of if it aint broke dont fix it and TTTGo I would say in comparison to other sG servers has been doing really well.

Only people who did something deserve Ex-Staff. 

My opinion is that it should be closer to the system in GMod where it requires a long duration of recharge before you can use it, and have it perhaps do less damage in general. In GMod, usually props would have to launch themselves in the air and come back down to damage anyone (which would take a while unless proptown was turned on).

Yea I should have ex-staff admin 

Rank apps are a pain in the ass.
 
Also to clarify a few things, I was absolutely demanding admin because due to the ranking formats, I was under the impression that I should have had it. I had ex-SO basic admin privileges (after I stepped down as SO) which aren't officially a thing so it seemed ludicrous to me that someone we have written down on "paper" is suddenly invalid because of how one person feels about it.
 
Furthermore, I did actively reach out to Lindsay but turns out they're not adviser anymore, so then I reached out to Orange* who then contacted Zach. I created the forum post as a more permanent paper trail to refer to.
 
 
EDIT: Cause it wouldn't be a Sith post if I didn't meme
 

Props are intended to deal damage, and they will, but i have been prioritizing things recently, my intention was to fix the insta kill props.
 
I'll get them dealing damage again soon

yo @shikaku why are you being a little bitch just wondering
 
hope you get your admin sith

A little while ago props would do a decent amount but would not be an instant kill, and that tended to work very well for the server. It wasn't OP and allowed a chance for players to defend themselves, less they get caught off guard. 

Fixed Traitor buttons icons showing to non traitors Fixed the block name change plugin that was setting their name to blank, Fixed dna icon showing to non detectives Fixed karma round end bonus being given to people who hurt teams. Reduced delay for setting up traitor buttons Added a 4 second freezetime to the round Colored the Detective call message, Changed from Ovelays to HudText to show roles and overtime Added new hudtext for overtime time left Fixed homerun and mp5 setting their viewmodel if it wasn't equipped,causing visual bugs Reduced jihad time to 1.2 seconds Blocked innos from getting usps

added radio anti spam discombob now shows in damagelog Hitting somebody with a prop does correct damage

Here's my two cents on the situation;
 
1. The decoy doesnt really cause 'mass' RDM, it will occasionally damage players and maybe only kill one person, but it doing damage is the whole point, as it's job is to knock people off of high places. Depending on the area thrown, they can be KOSable and while I understand your T buddy was the one whom threw it, 19 damage isnt THAT much (however I couldnt slay the one whom threw it as that was @daniel_) That'd be up to him why he didnt slay himself, but I still dont believe 19 damage warrents a slay for an accident.
 
2. I'm sure no ones calling suspicion for no reason, and thats not really an easy rule to police compared to other rules. Why should we limit calling suspicion when suspecting is a key aspect of the game? People will follow you and thats that, there isnt really anything inherently bad with that IMO. I dont think trying to limit what people can do, especially if they are Staff, will help any with the server still being worked on.
 
3. This is the solution thats kind of difficult to explain, as there was no proof/easy way to correctly identify who called the OG KOS if there even was one. I would rather not slay someone based on little proof, as from what I was getting is that a third part had called the KOS and that was his reason for following it. Admittly his other reason is pretty shitty, but he had also said he was just following a KOS. I personally didnt know, and with no consenus being reached, it would be hard to punish someone.
 
4. I do agree that an sG member should uphold the rules and try and hold a good image, but the problem with TTT:GO is that some people who may be in higher positions do not exactly know how to police the server right (not trying to rag on anyone.) The reason Nau and I responded and attempted to help is that we largely know how to Admin the server better than others. While I would like more people to help Admin on the server, I dont blame certain people for not knowing how to properly do so; the server is in a weird spot and Admining isnt always the easiest for this server in particular. 
 
I'm not trying to say that any of your points are necessarily incorrect, I just dont really agree with them. They still hold merit, and I'm sorry if you were truly RDMed and the shitty situation that devolved didnt help that case. Thank you for helping pop and supporting sG in other ways.

There was an overwhelming agreement that a KOS was called on you.
I think this should be chalked up to a misunderstanding as no admin can act on something without proof. Milkman should have been slain/dealt with - you're not wrong just based off his reasoning.
Decoys are not a problem and are typically used to reach high ground etc. Decoys specifically for griefing are usually punished.

I apologize that you felt mistreated and ridiculed but I do agree that admins on the servers do need to be more proactive in monitoring and enforcing.

Coming from hundreds of hours as staff on TTT Gmod, and hundreds of hours on other sG servers, I never had a problem with server quality or community.... until now. I don't have anything against any INDIVIDUAL players, although several of them are extremely childish.
 
Here's a summary of tonight's events that made me quit sG TTT:GO permanently. 
 
1. Round start, I was selected as Traitor.
2. Daniel damaged me for 18 with a decoy. Issue #1
3. Eagle called SUS on me for taking damage. Issue #2 
4. I stood still typing because my mic broke, and as I was typing out remarks defending myself, everyone started calling me an asshole and Milkman RDM'd me.
5. Nobody was held accountable for the actions, and I was ridiculed until leaving. Issue #3
6. lindsay was also ridiculed for helping me to find the forums and file a report, THE ONLY PERSON DOING THEIR JOB ON THE SERVER. Issue #4
 
I understand that this server is still in development, that is why I will turn this complaint into a SUGGESTION. I don't want any individuals listed punished in any way for their actions. 
 
Issue #1: The decoy is a terrible item that aggravates countless players and is used for mass RDM (always unpunished)
SOLUTION: Remove the decoy or alter that it only affects the user, or does no fall damage to surrounding players.
 
Issue #2: (Minor) Calling suspicion should be limited. On several occasions, popular players (loud players) would call suspicion on me for no reason (I had not fired any shots that round or been near killings), and it would result in me being tailed constantly throughout the round, ruining my T rounds.
SOLUTION: Encourage popular players (i.e. STAFF) not to call suspicion for no reason, and generally uphold good sportsmanship.
 
Issue #3: RDM is not a mystery. It's not hard to slay the RDMers, and Milkman even admitted to RDM'ing me on purpose because I was "being a dick". This is not a reason.
SOLUTION: Allegedly there are damage logs, and its not hard to remember who called the false KOS in the first place. Enforcement of the rules is CRUCIAL for server survival.
 
Issue #4: Despite being several sG members on the server, Lindsay and another sGr, can't remember who, were the only ones trying to help. (Although the sGr in question did it in a very rude way, it is still appreciated). I expected staff to try to HELP newer players, and not enable them to be bullied/RDM'd. 
SOLUTION: DO YOUR JOB!!!! Even if you are not a staff member, tasked with enforcing the rules, EVERY sG member is expected to uphold a good image for the sG community. If countless sG players are teaming up, enabling others to break server rules, and willingly breaking server rules themselves without punishment, you will lose your player base to toxic rulebreakers.
 
Thanks for reading all of this. I think it is very important to encourage discussion about improvements for the server, and not to have members discourage this discussion (!!! pointed remark !!!). I will stick to sG bhop for now, but I'm looking forward to playing other sG servers in the future.
