  1. man oh man obviously have not been keeping up with this thread at all. Real life has been fucking nuts the past month or two, and I've barely even had time to pick up a video game. I've been getting a lot more into Rich Piana videos and advice and whatnot, and took something he said really to heart: There's no such thing as over-training, just under-eating and under-sleeping. Obviously a bit of a controversial topic, but I agree with it to a decent extent. I'm not saying you can do the same muscle group every. single. day...but I don't believe in rest days, and I haven't had one in awhile, unless it's needed because I'm just busy or something. If you rotate muscles intelligently, you don't need a rest day - IE if I initiate muscle hypertrophy on my biceps on Monday - my chest, triceps, legs, etc. don't need to rest on Tuesday lol. But, that's what works for me (yes, I do regular, extensive doctor visits and am fully healthy). Do whatever works for you and doesn't compromise your health. Also started using a vast amount of 5% (Rich Piana's brand) supplements over the past month and a half - so if any of you have questions on it let me know. It's actually really good stuff for the most part. Anyways, I got totally off topic - the point I was getting at is that I'm forcing myself to actually sleep 8 hours a day, minimum. I'm used to getting 4-6 just from the military lifestyle, so it was a struggle. With sleeping that much, work, school, housework, etc., I barely even have time to do basic shit on here lol. I think stuff is sort of settling down for now, but we shall see. In regards to my current fitness plan, I was gonna make a thread once I get the garage officially done, but I'll post a small update on where I'm at now: Brother had about 10-15k worth of gym equipment in his garage that he was getting rid of, so I ended up buying it all off of him for 4. I wasn't really looking to set up a garage gym, but for all that equipment, couldn't say no. So I've kinda slowly been in the process of cleaning the garage out top to bottom sweeping, vacuuming, mopping, repeating, etc. I laid horse stable mats down (very thick material and very sturdy), put 3'x5' mirrors up all along one of my walls, then on the other wall mounted an extra TV I had and am currently in the process of mounting the squat rack. Ended up getting a ton of equipment though: prostyle dumbbells from 5-130lbs in pairs, three large racks for said dumbbells that sit along my wall, stationary bench, adjustable bench (both quite nice), squat rack w/ pullup bar, barbell, EZ bar, assortment of kettlebells, assortment of medicine balls, assortment of slam balls, seated calf raise machine, two-in-one leg machine, landmine, few plate trees, and an assortment of plates from 2.5lbs up to 45lbs. On top of that, I already had a heavy bag / speed bag, row machine, and some other stuff that in total makes the setup pretty fucking sweet. I'll post pictures once I get the squat rack mounted and I'm able to sweep and mop again one more time. Diet / exercise wise I'm on a cut. It's horrible. Low weight high rep is the worst thing in this entire world. Lol seriously though, I've never really been much into it, so it's a fucking ass kicker doing it every day now. I feel like I'm starting all over again, and am pretty sore every day. I'm sitting at about 190lbs right now, maybe shooting for 180. My diet is about 1200-1500 calories, mostly of chicken, greens, and a reasonable portion of fruit early in the day. I'm not doing 'no carb', but I'm just actively monitoring what I eat and keeping it low. I bumped up my fiber supplement intake, and also started getting back on an intermittent fasting with a 10 hour window of eating. I feel pretty good tbh. Because chicken is only like 230 calories a breast, I can pretty much eat every two hours during my window and be fine. But yeah, I'll probably post another thread when I get all the equipment fully set up and shit.
  2. Favorite car?

    I think it's subjective on what you're trying to do. I just got rid of my corolla and am trying to get rid my bike, but my hellcat & bronco provide an awesome contrast of driving experiences. I love tearing shit up in the bronco, but I also love driving fast on an open road with the 707hp in my hellcat.
  3. I've done stuff like this in the past when games have gone on sale, like when they did Star Wars bundles, but I haven't done the subscription for Humble. The non subscription bundle they release every so often (I can't remember if it's weekly or what the exact timeframe is) is 90% of the time full of bullshit. But the subscription portion of it seems to have decent games that would be worth it. @Black Rain Thoughts? Not a bad idea tbh. We can get together soon and go over this, but I can set up a subscription to it and give you the codes.
  4. Add me on steam! Let’s play something soon!

  5. SMAC = SourceMod Anti Cheat. Overwolf doesn’t interfere with SMAC - stuff that interferes with it are things that are deliberately used to cheat, such as wallhacking. Overwolf causing someone to get banned for cheating is the equivalent to getting into a fender bender in California, but blaming some guy in Ohio. The two have zero correlation to one another.
  6. It saddens me that one of my BD’s has forced you to resort to this type of language. I apologize.

  8. did you just assume I’m not both genders
  9. me vs Reece
  10. Hola, After much deliberation, we have decided to get another promotion going - a new Board of Director! After lengthy discussions and public relations courses, we are going to promote Delirium! Delirium has busted his ass over the years and has proved that he is a loyal, dedicated, and hard working member of SG. We are excited to get him up to speed in his new rank, and look forward to him putting in some work at the top level of the community! Congrats dude! His new duties will include: Support/build/fix servers Approve admin applications Set up new Admin and Subscriber access Issue admin warnings/punishments Keep the community updated of any changes Final say in all admin disputes Plan for growth (website/servers) Support forum/plugins/logos Review and implement community suggestions Promote/demote server admins Manage public relations/marketing/events Be a role model to all admins/setting by example Collect donations, manage subscriptions, and pay the bills Manage the website, forums, and bansite Manage AO staffing and responsibilities ... anything else that needs to be done Everyone give him a round of applause; it's well deserved!
  11. Reece has been permanently banned for calling me chubby and short, even though I clear 6 feet and have a body fat percentage around 10%. Lol in all seriousness, Reece was causing unnecessary drama. Instead of coming to any higher up with any type of issues he was having, he started mass shit talking all of the higher ups in a way that reflects poorly on a CA - someone who is not only supposed to represent the community, but also is supposed to be mature enough to voice issues and concerns to try and figure it out. He practically begged to be re promoted to CA, and the BD's decided to give him another chance. After coming to an opinion that there is some sort of mental disconnect between Reece and reality, the BD's decided CA was not a good fit for him, and we were going to demote him to SA, but he stepped down on his own and started randomly insulting me in the chatbox. Ain't gonna put up with that shit - if you have that big of an issue with this place or one of my staff that you can't go to them and handle business because you're too much of a vagina, don't let the door hit your sensitive soul on the way out. I don't give a fuck if you like me, Prez, Black Rain, Wawa, any of my AO's, etc; if you are a Server Administrator or above, you will be held to a higher standard because you represent this community as an admin.
  12. WHAT?! ARE YOU BACK

  13. Good afternoon everyone! As you guys may have noticed, we have had quite a few people step down recently! Unfortunately, sometimes the step-downs hit the community like a quickly-spreading virus, taking a lot of good people from us at once in a rapid chain of events. It's rare, but sometimes it happens - I can assure you that there is no major conspiracy going on behind the scenes...even though that's exactly what I would say if there was a conspiracy going on behind the scenes... With that being said, the BD's and some of the AO's to form a majority vote held a meeting last night to discuss promotions. I want to explicitly state that none of these people being promoted are getting it because we have had a lot of step downs. They may be getting it faster, but we still have full trust and faith in the following: To Community Advisor, we are promoting ReeceReidRoux (yes, I formed them into one person), Dominic, Poobah, and Brandon. We haven't promoted this many people to CA in awhile, so we are excited to see that outcome of this amount of new input being brought to the CA section! To Administrative Officer, we are promoting SilentGuns! He is a former AO who has been around the block before, and has put in time at the CA rank to earn a promotion back to AO. We are excited to get him on board and have him working on some GMod projects! Please give all these people a pat on the back for earning their promotion! As a small side note, I'd like to briefly bring up something brought up in a thread made last night in OTF: As much as I appreciate it, I don't care too much about praise from anyone. I'm completely content in doing work in the background and seeing this place flourish, just knowing I had a hand in helping out. In regards to the rumors portion though...I do have to admit that I am extremely confused as to some of this shit I hear. I don't go chasing around rumors and hunting people down because I simply don't care enough, but I have heard some of the most absolutely off-the-wall things, even recently (although someone said something about a tiny penis rumor, that's totally true - 1.5 inches to be exact). Seriously...some of the shit people come up with is fucking hilarious. I encourage any of you to come up to me and talk to me and ask me - I can count on one hand the amount of people here that I will not engage in any form of dialogue with. Anyways, I just wanted to briefly touch on that real quick. Congrats again to all of those receiving a promotion!

  15. You can gift as many months as you’d like.
  16. Hello all, Just a quick reminder in regards to monthly subscriptions for VIP / subscriber: Due to the automated system we have integrated within our forums / Sourcebans setup, you cannot gift a recurring subscription to someone else. I understand this might have been a bit confusing because the form used to say 'is this a gift', but that has since been removed. There may be threads somewhere that may indicate that you can gift this, but please point them out to myself or another CA+ so they can be edited appropriately. While it's feasible for us to do this for a few people, it takes a lot more manual management, which on a wider scale would be completely unrealistic - honestly, donation management is one of the most time-consuming parts of running this community. The reason so is because I understand the frustration behind making the decision to put hard-earned money towards something, and in return receiving shitty customer service / in general not the product you expected. With that being said, I take donations very seriously in the sense that I make sure that everybody receives as smooth and painless of a transaction as possible. While it may take me a few days to get to your donation, I always do everything that I can to refund people their money if they are not satisfied / work with them to resolve issues that may arise. It is fully in our right to implement a 'no refunds' policy, but I do not want to do that nor plan on doing that (although if you're at like day 29 of your 30 day subscription, I'll probably tell you a refund isn't going to happen). You can absolutely gift subscriber / VIP via a one time donation, skins, etc. still...this is just in regards to recurring subscriptions. I'm also pretty relaxed when it comes to the methods of which you can donate - there have been several times where I've had people gift me a steam game and I donate on their behalf. The point I'm getting at is that I'll do the best that I can to work with you. Any questions can be asked here, another subforum, or via PM. Thanks
  17. Games?

  20. Gear VR

    I have a Gear VR (maybe I threw it away, idk) and it was pretty cool. It's all sitting games though, it doesn't track your movement or anything.
  21. No, I’m going to be in this house longer than i thought so I’m not gonna start this yet, mainly because it would be a fucking paaaaaain to transport. I still plan on doing this, just probably not for a little bit. i did just spend like 2 - 2.5k ish on upgrading my comp though, did a swap of pretty much everything except the storage.
