Hello everyone, The community-wide meeting should have been this weekend, but I got unexpectedly swamped and totally forgot to make a thread addressing it. To try and make sure everyone has a fair notice about it, we'll be moving it to next weekend. The meeting will be Sunday, March 1st, at 4 PM EST/3PM CST/1PM PST/10PM CET/9PM GMT (CA+ edit this with other timezones as necessary) Point of the community-wide meeting you ask? To address issues and fill the community in on what we got planned as Staff (CA+) and make sure everyone's in the loop that is interested in it. It also gives everyone a chance to ask questions and get answers from SG Staff! Be sure to be there if you are interested in seeing what's coming, happening, or if you'd like to alert us to any issues we may not be aware of! The whole point of it is to get the general public involved with our Staff and connect with our foundation of the community, regulars, supporters, and Subscribers alike! We encourage people to post in this thread with things they'd like to see discussed at this meeting and we'll try to cover them as fast as possible before going into community questions. Will update below this line with things on the agenda to talk about ================================================== -Slight Subscriber/Supporter change. -ZE crashes and potential causes/fixes. -Events

I'm not too sure. I would imagine, yes. However I'm not sure how much time it would take to sort out.

Both good ideas. We have some pressing matters to deal with right now at higher ranks, but events like these will be brought up at the next community meeting. (Saturday, Feb 21st) I'll be sure to note it down to talk about.

I like this idea. Would be incentive for people to generate some unique content for us. Alternatively we could always offer some kind of unique perk for people who create custom content for us. [Developer] or [Mapper] tags in the servers, that kind of thing. Its an idea to build on, as far as an event I think we should see if we can get some interest in a competition-type event. Prizes can be discussed and I'll try to get back to this thread with an idea for some prizes. Obvious ones being money of some sort, perhaps others can be thought of?

@Zaraki I believe PayPal wallet will be able to Subscribe now. PayPal business should be able to accept all forms of payment, so we will work on expanding our acceptable payment methods shortly. It may not happen until next week though.

The amount of people who are constantly all over my dick. Like fuck, I just want to play video games, not get a blowjob from like 9 females and 20+ guys. Comeon.

Uncheck this.

Can be considered. We want to condense the forum subcategories. An idea would be to condense then have CSGO and CSGO Competitive. We'll see though.

Some of those chat tabs are not enabled, but basically, the base chat tab ('Shoutbox') is position 1. Those other chat tabs you can re-order given the number you wish them to be in. However, since the others are not enabled, there's no real point to them. Edit: Good job putting tag notifications to use! I honestly probably would not have seen this thread for another day or two otherwise. Haha.

@Extreme Potatoes oiajwef Was testing users with spaces and it seems to work.

Hello Everyone! We're happy to announce the return of DarkRP, fixed and working fully! Everyone's money should remain what it was before. If you notice any bugs or issues, please post them in the DarkRP forum! In addition to this, we're announcing some new forum plugins we've enabled! We have gotten a new chatbox (Called a shoutbox but it's whatever) and also enabled a few new features! You can use /ignore to ignore other users, this is intended to help two people who don't get along, to get along while in the chatbox. Also the return of /me! You can now notify/tag users in posts and threads! To do so simply type @theirnamehere an example is @XeNo will send me a notification and tag me in that thread. There's a max number of tags you can do in one post, so please do not spam this feature. The other feature is thread tags through use of hashtags! To do so just put #hashtagnamehere and it will tag that post/thread. You can also click on a hashtag to get a link to all the other posts/threads with that tag! User mentions are being monitored and in the future we may have awards for being the some of the most mentioned users. Enjoy! Huge thanks to Revenga for setting it all up for us!

Spartan's new boss has been eagerly awaiting his arrival.

This involves working with the code to see what the issue is. Perhaps it's something with Paypal or it's the way the plugin makes Subscriptions, I'm not sure. We will have to look into this and it may take some time. For now, understand that we add your Subscriber manually to Sourcebans so even if you lose it for a couple of hours or a day or two on the forums, your perks in-game remain and aren't being removed for that time period.

Another person I overlooked. I'm rerolling the PSN code since BJ said that US codes won't work in other countries unfortunately. New winner for the PSN code: Congrats!

We'll do more and more giveaways so don't worry! You'll have a chance. Also we may put a limit on how many people can win in a given time period if anyone wins like two giveaways in a row, luckily that hasn't happened yet.

LOL I completely didn't even look. I'm redrawing for it. LOL what an embarrassment.

Mapper something may have went wrong with how you Subscribed, it should have automatically set your rank to Subscriber if the payment went through. I included your name on the giveaways though just because I'm sure you're good for it. Edit: WINNERS! GTAV: PSN gift card: Evolve: CONGRATULATIONS AND THANKS FOR SUBSCRIBING TO STEAMGAMERS!

Make sure you post if you want in on the PSN gift card giveaway, I'll randomly pick 3 winners for these prizes tomorrow afternoon. Thanks for Subscribing to SG and helping support the community everyone!

Lmfao.

This month we'll be giving away a pre-purchase of GTA V! It includes the following (Quoted from steam site here): If you would like to participate in this giveaway, it's easy: Make sure you're a Subscriber by the time of the giveaway (Tomorrow afternoon I will pick a winner) by becoming a Subscriber HERE! If you're already a Subscriber, sit back, relax, and cross your fingers that you're this month's winner! And as always, thank you for supporting the community! Edit: We will also be giving away a $20 PSN gift card Zorg got for Christmas that he doesn't want. This will be a separate giveaway sot here will be two winners. However, if you want the gift card please post in this thread you wish to be entered in that giveaway (So someone who doesn't own a Playstation won't win it). Edit2: BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE. WE'LL ALSO GIVEAWAY A COPY OF THE NEW GAME EVOLVE THAT JUST CAME OUT. This will also be a separate giveaway for Subscribers only! Wooooooo! WINNERS! GTAV: PSN gift card: Evolve: CONGRATULATIONS AND THANKS FOR SUBSCRIBING TO STEAMGAMERS!

I think the closest we're considering to what you're suggesting, is allowing Subscriber to be purchased for X months at a time for a price that may be slightly discounted from paying monthly (Much like what you are saying, 4 months for the price of 3 months or something) As far as bundles with server-specific perks, that isn't the route we wanna take with Subscriber. As you may already see with people getting Giveaways, we want things outside of server-specific perks to give to our Subscribers and to classify them as different "bundles, or groups" of subscribers would be difficult.

They are not a very good excuse, I agree. As people who ARE able to donate for it, can also just as easily cancel it right after and keep it for a month, making any semantics of "Subscribers always pay monthly" pretty much null. However, until we get more familiar with the way the plugin is working (Something TheVirus is working on figuring out right now) we can't customize the plugin yet. Once we are able to manipulate it's features, we will drag Subscriber perks to anyone who donates regularly for over $5. That will allow people to renew their Subscriptions on their own time, or someone who just wanted to donate can experience the perks of being a monthly donator. It's something we're working on putting in place but have no easy way of doing so. I apologize to Elemental while we are working to sort out a way to do this. While I would not mind handling his case specifically and letting him donate $5 regularly and setting him up with Subscriber, it's not something we can do for everyone for months on end because it would get extremely tedious.
