    Y'all trollin.. You guys disgust me
  2. Hasta la vista RocksdelaCrocs
  3. Just a few things I'd like to address on behalf of TTT. @Trazz is welcome to chime in and correct me or add anything where needed, as he's the more experienced of the two of us. Many of the points that you've brought up are very real issues that we recognize. Every one of these things is something that we've taken into account and discussed to one extent or another. I see that you've highlighted a multitude of issues but offered very little in the way of solutions. I'm not trying to knock you in saying this, as finding solutions to issues like this is one of the most difficult things we've wrestled with as a team. Much like you, I started playing TTT about 4 years ago, and loved the hell out of our server. While I sometimes look back and think it's just the nostalgia, it becomes evident when issues like these are highlighted that the server was very different back then, and in some aspects could be considered more enjoyable. Now I'm going to address the rulebreakers, punishments, and admins points together here so bear with me. Admining then looked very different from how admins choose to and are able to operate. While this more laid back approach was very effective at deterring and punishing rule-breakers, it wasn't the most accurate or fair way of handling things. I can recall more than a handful of times being false slayed myself from some he-said she-said scenario. These false negatives are what caused higher ups to take interest in redefining protocol, and a select few situations really forced them to lay the law down in this regard. When an admin tells you that they can't act on something they didn't see they are being 100% honest with you. This style of admining drastically limits the number of situations an admin can handle with their powers unless they choose to sit in spec all day. Is every admin constantly trying to seek out and terminate rulebreakers? Probably not. Could some of them do a better job sometimes? Maybe. Regardless, admins are held to a fairly professional standard, and I think that your observation that many of them are "in it for themselves" could be a little misguided. With that being said, we haven't just written off this issue as the inevitable. We've looked at reincorporating elements of previous TTT admining, we've considered numerous other solutions. I can't say anything concrete in regard to what you will or won't see, but please bear with us as this is something we are actively trying to address. In regards to Lack of Community, it's something that I've personally noticed, but is very difficult to address. We can't really force our staff to talk to people, and we sure as hell aren't going to force our players to. It's come up as a discussion among our CAs a number of times, and we're still open to readdress the topic or consider any proposed solutions, but it seems to just be how our server has changed over time.
  4. Those greedy bastards!
  5. YES SIR!
  6. Tasers are meant to give you an absolute answer to who is what role unlike items like the DNA scanner that only provide you information that may help you deduce traitors. We've decided that it's not in the servers best interest to compromise this items ability and cause confusion. We always appreciate feedback and suggestions, but we are not looking to add something like this at the current time.
  7. I've never seen someone surf so poorly. Quality content though
  8. I think this could be a pretty big turnoff for less skilled players that aren't well versed with pistols. Additionally, the advantage offered by armor would be pretty significant. USPs are only really effective at stealth kills from further distances when you hit the headshot, apart from that, it would be pretty similar to regular gameplay. I'd much rather see Negevs only.
  9. Event was dope! I was a bit late but wish we could've run a few more maps. Can definitely see this coming back in the future.
  10. Yes, attempting to destroy a T Tester is considered T-Bait but is not against the rules.
  11. This is something that I've wanted for quite some time now. I'm not sure if it's something the managers are looking to do just yet, but I imagine they'd want to take into account some of the negatives that could come from this. Keep your eyes peeled for something similar coming very soon tho Yeah, you're added to the list.
  12. I believe it's related to !ws but couldn't be positive, I just remember it starting around the time that was implemented. Do you usually use E or just walk over weapons when picking them up? Not sure if it makes a difference but it feels like it happens less when I actually use E to pick weapons up.
  13. ANDROID 11 BETA DROPPING FOR PIXELS TODAY, GET IT WHILE IT'S HOT! https://www.google.com/android/beta
  14. Previously suggested here. I stand by what I said previously, but we'll see if the team has anything different to say this time around. In terms of just an event, it might be interesting to try, but unless someone can find a pre-existing plugin, it will likely be too difficult to implement just for an event.
  15. I personally preferred the Nexus phones as they tend to be more aware of what they were: mid-range phones delivering the best android experience to compete with flagships. I've owned the Pixel 2XL, 3XL, and I'm now on the 4XL. I miss my fingerprint scanner but I've been very happy with the experience AOSP delivers and the simple and clean design of the phones. Looks like with the 5, Pixel will be going back to it's roots with more affordable hardware and competitive pricing.
  16. Got this weird glitch on Instagram where pictures won't load, I hope they fix that, kind of annoying tbh
  17. Obligatory Guide if this is your first car as well. I understand the appeal of Mustangs, but a medium to high power RWD car is not generally the best option for a first car. If you plan on hooning around town, FWD or AWD might be a safer and more affordable bet. You might not win all the light to lights, but you'll probably make it home in one piece every night. Weigh your options and see what you're really looking for in a car. Things like comfort, reliability, and even fuel economy can often be overlooked.
  18. Carfax data is compiled for reports matching the VIN number. Whatever the Carfax says the model is is most likely right. If you're still doubting it, ask him to check the VIN for you and you can look it up yourself. I don't know a whole lot about mustangs, but I'm the JDM scene, a lot of people will swap bumpers and other parts for whatever they find the most appealing. A lot of cars from close years that are considered different models will have interchangable parts, so it's possible that this is what happened. That sounds like a pretty reasonable price, but you can always ask if he would mind you taking it to a mechanic to check it out for you. Don't be afraid to haggle if it's more than you're willing to pay, the worst he can do is say no. If you're buying a car that's stick, make sure you know what you're getting into, and that you have someone that is willing to drive it home for you and teach you. While driving stick gets easier with time, there is absolutely more frustrations and minor inconveniences that an auto grocery getter doesn't have. There's absolutely no reason to buy stick these days unless you enjoy driving or can't afford anything else. Do your research, make sure you know what you're getting, especially if it's going to be your daily driver.
  19. Apart from crash bars, bumpers, fenders, and somewhere to mount your license plate being required in most states, removing these pieces compromises the safety and aerodynamics of your vehicle. Manufacturers, in recent years, have put a lot of effort into improving the safety of vehicles, and those outer panels and beams play a key part in absorbing and distributing force during a collision. You can look up your state laws on what in particular is and isn't allowed. Keep in mind these only apply to registered cars on public roads though, so if you want to drive an 800hp go-kart on your own land, go for it. The majority of people that do weight reduction on their cars will work from the inside out, removing trim, power seats, even door cards. Heavy body panels can instead be replaced with lighter counterparts like carbon fiber hoods and roofs.
  20. This used to happen to me on tumbleweed for a short time before fixing itself. Someone smarter than I mentioned it had to do with something in the map itself, but I can't remember who it was, or what they said :/. Does this only occur on specific maps, and have you always had an issue with this?
  21. New Keyboard

    Why don't you get a switch tester and figure out what sort of switches in particular you're looking for. There's not a significant difference between the feel of two prebuilt keyboards with the same switches, so sharing if you want features like rgb or macros and what design in particular you like would help as well.

  23. Settings>Miscellaneous>Attachments If you delete them from here, they'll clear up attachment space for you to post more images. I think 5MB made sense 15-20 years ago but it's absolutely abysmal now. Something like having extended as a VIP perk wouldn't go unappreciated. I have to delete a lot of images to post new attachments, essentially deleting old posts in the case of Post Pictures of Yourself etc. I'm not sure if it's possible to implement, but even something like an option to automatically compress images would help.
