Roughly how long have you been playing our server(s)? 7 years i think? i joined in 2012-2013.
What qualities can you bring to Outbreak? i'm an easy going-guy, i will try my best to improve this content in the future i hope, all i can say is i'd love to share some laughs with people in TeamSpeak.
Tell us a little something about yourself: My real name is Ahmad, i'm working as a banker (For now), i love playing games, love smoking that dank kush kush, i'm thinking on moving to canada soon because my country is dog shit.
Is this your first post? i think i posted alot of nonsense before in my old times and i have done things rather annoying, i'm thinking now to use the forums wisely and not lose control thinking that forums are like DM's :).
Have you been around for less than 2 weeks (this includes Teamspeak and forums)? Nope. ?

+1 funny been here for ages and doesnt take any bullshit

GLAD WE HAVE YOU TO DEFEND THE BANKS o7

AYO AYO!! sup Wist, been a long time since we've last spoken mate hope to see u on ts Cheers ?.

Hi Wist! We may have not spoken often but it is always great to see what people do with their lives away from the keyboard. It was really nice of you to give us an update! ?
 
 
 

Had a little trip down memory lane today, and had a look at my introduction from 2012. I thought I'd make a new one in the interest of actually meeting some more corners of the community, but for reference you can see below:
Peep that completely unnecessary A Level English brag - what the fuck was I hoping for?
Anyway, I am (still) Wist, but my real name is Harry. I am now 23, and live in London. I work in Technology Resilience at Deloitte Cyber, specialising in Business Continuity and Catastrophic Recovery in Financial Market Infrastructures. In plainer English, I effectively help banks, clearing houses, brokers, securities dealers, repo dealers, payments infrastructure (and a whole host more) recover from IT failure of all stripes - minor outages to total disasters. If anyone is interested, read this story about the world's largest shipping company, Maersk, being hit by a cyber attack. It's about the kind of scale I'm aiming to combat.
 
Prior to working in Cyber, I studied Political Philosophy at a place called Trinity Hall. I grew up in Somerset, where my parents still live. I think I've probably served in more roles than anyone else in Outbreak: from memory, Member, Mod, Admin, Head Admin, Community Admin, Co-Owner, Owner, Veteran and now back to Member again. I will always have a special place in my heart for this community - we really are a (dysfunctional) family. I think I probably know the OGs better than most of my real friends. Between my life's ups and downs, they're usually the first to know. I definitely hope the younger generation get the same bond - it's a special thing (and probably why the OGs are such an insufferable clique if you're not 'in').
 
Don't have nearly enough time to game as I'd like anymore, but I seem to be playing CS:GO, Rocket League, and FTL as my 'go-tos'. I'm still running around as a fairly headless chicken trying to work out how to vaguely adult - no luck yet.
 
I'm conscious that some of the younger folks are getting to that near-university application stage - If you ever need a hand, just yell. I'm happy to help with personal statements or revision advice etc. etc.
 
Anyway, that's me. Hope to see more of you around!
 

A fair amount of change has taken place within the last few weeks, so it's time for an update on the state of affairs.
Outbreak Community Representative
Following the first community meeting, it was decided that a representative should be elected to improve communication between the staff team and members. We followed an instant-runoff vote format and I was elected as the rep (it should be noted that Akame was the actual winner of the poll, but he declined the offer so 2nd place was taken instead).
The full results can be found here:
 
There has also been some confusion over what this role entails, so for clarification, my main two responsibilities are (but not limited to):
• Relaying information on the state of development within the community
           -This includes updates on admin meetings, future development plans etc.
• Managing the monthly community meetings
 
Remember that these are not set in stone, so if anybody feels I could change what I am doing, please do make suggestions.
Role Changes
Congratulations to MiniColossus on his successful promotion to member and Akame for obtaining moderator, as well as Marsh, Toby, Lucy and Vodo Hazed for getting trial.
In addition, the veteran group on the forums has now been retired and replaced with 'Retired Member' - it is effectively the same, but slightly more lenient, available to 2 year old members or previous members who have been a longstanding part of the community. This allows for well known, previously active people to easily return to member once they have returned.
Forum Updates
There have been various small changes within the forums over the past few days:
Member of the Month
As many of you will have seen, there is now a 'member of the month' vote at the right of the home page.

This should be used to suggest a member that you think has contributed particularly well in the past month; the top votes will be considered by the staff and a member selected - keep in mind that obvious troll picks will just be discarded.
As of now, the perks of winning are purely cosmetic, appearing as a forum medal which can be displayed under your avatar:

But if there are any ideas for more substantial benefits, please make a suggestion.
 
Miscellaneous
All previous warning points have been cleared (unless recent or still relevant) as to remove trivial sanctions.
Calendar information now shows on the home page to notify you of upcoming events.
Trophies and medals have now been fully implemented, with 'Veteran' and 'Years of Service' badges to showcase your time in the community (and reveal the filthy 2k16ers). Years of service badges require 20+ pieces of forum content per year to count towards the total.
FiveM Server
Development is still in progress for the server, but there have been some issues implementing certain plugins - a more detailed post will be made about this within the next couple of weeks.
Events
A new event schedule will now be tested to try and encourage more frequent events, following a simple alternating pattern of community choice events and staff hosted events.
The community choice events will be based on a monthly poll to decide on a game, and we hope members will be willing to help with the hosting of these in the future. (Thanks to Danny for hosting the first Worms WMD event).
Staff events will be run entirely by the admin team and game choice will be chosen on our perogative.
 
Results for the first community choice can be found here:

We'll do another Summer league tourney probably around the same time as last year's one in the July/August when more people should be off.
If anyone has anymore suggestions for other event or game nights that they would like to do make sure you suggest them or if a your idea has been suggested but you'd be willing to help out hosting it, just repost it and let us know.
The first community choice event has been selected and will be announced soon, the top 2 choices will be done from the vote will be host throughout this month. As they wasn't as too many suggestions or vote we'll be doing this vote once a month for the next choice.
