    Hi All, 

    As you all may have noticed, the Teamspeak is currently down. It appears that the company hosting the service has dissolved and therefore shut down the service. 

    I have purchased a new Teamspeak server with the following IP: 51.89.153.238:9155

    This is up and running and ready to use. I will be adjusting the ts.join-ob.com very soon so your old bookmarks will work also.

    Is this a draft from a few years back?

    - There is no structure on rules.

    - Negligence from the staff.

    I'm not sure what your on about with the above as, to the best of my knowledge, you haven't reported anything that is breaking the rules. Quite frankly, to claim negligence from staff is silly because you have not raised anything and I don't see anything here that would class as breaking any rules.

    - I don't feel like I am welcome here. And so I don't feel like I belong here.

    I'm sorry you feel this way and I hope your able to move onto greener pastures.

    You're always welcome to come back whenever.

    Hey! Unfortunately the control panel is still down for maintenance and I do not have a guaranteed time for the service to be back up. I’ll be logging a ticket with the host to get it up ASAP. 
     

    Thanks weezy and gaffer ?

    As you all may be aware, Teamspeak is currently down and unfortunately will not be up until some emergency maintenance has been completed by the hosting company. 
     

    The control panel that manages the Teamspeak was hacked and the files for the Teamspeak removed and made irrecoverable. We will have a new Teamspeak allocated to us ASAP but this may take some time as all London servers linked to this control panel have been affected. 

     

    The hosting company has not informed us of any personal information being taken and your MyTeamspeak passwords are not accessible via the server so you do not need to worry about resetting any personal details. Please reset them if you do feel this is necessary however as it will not hurt to do so. 

     

    I will be posting any updates in this thread as soon as I get them. Message me if you have any questions (steam preferably)

     

    P.s. I have now taken ownership of Outbreak as Conor has taken a step back due to personal reasons. I have been meaning to make a formal post but kinda needed to put it somewhere for now.

    it would be stupid to say it definitely would change the result, just as stupid as it would be to say it'd not change the result

    which is why im not saying either of those things

    im saying because randos voted it'd be ridiculous to grandstand about how this is the choice of the community when it very clearly might not be

    Correct from what you can see but what I am saying is that it WOULDN'T have affected the vote. I have seen who voted for what and the vote remained the same even after removing the random/inactive voters.

    Hi All, 

    After a "successful" evening of playing The Forest on Friday i have spun up a quick forest dedicated server. The server has 32 slots and is completely standard. Fell free to join and play for as long as you'd like whether that be by yourself or with others. 

    I will look to shut the server down around the end of the month or the beginning of next month but I will make another post prior to doing so just in case anyone has any objections to it being shut down. 

    Server Name: |OB|Outbreak| Forest of Gays

    Server Password: ob123

    If anyone has any suggestions for the server please give me a shout and ill see what I can do. 

    XOXO - Cheesepuff

    tbf the main plugins, like timers and autobhop etc were never added hence why no one played that one..

    Autobhop was added a few days after launch however I’m not sure about timers.

    No community update for 6 months isn't trying at all. The team hasn't even tried to communicate any of the efforts being made or struggles it has faced in an official way. I'm not twisting words at all. I won't name names as to whom I've heard those comments from, but I can tell you truthfully that they aren't made up.

    You are correct. We should have updated the community more often with our intentions as currently any updates that have been given have been given in dribs and drabs. These should have been collated into monthly updates.

    No. It's that since Conor was owner, he changed the moderator role from what it was when I was last in the team. Needless stripping of powers which I addressed at the time and the majority of the mod team at the time agreed with me, but at the same time were not as bothered by it as I was.

    I've argued before that the whole point of a moderator is someone who oversees the function of the platforms to uphold the community values. I believe that the stripping of core abilities like approving/moving/deleting posts is absolutely ludicrous for a moderator role. I still don't think I'm being unreasonable with those views.

    32 minutes ago, Mintlou said:

    Not true, I wanted actual ability to moderate, look at my list again. I don't see "create channels and edit user group permissions" on that list.

    Times change Mintlou. Powers have been modified in retrospect to the communities needs and due to past issues. The community didn't and still doesn't need to be heavily modded as we have regulars who quite frankly can be trusted to moderate themselves. The approval, deletion and moving of peoples posts has always remained Admin+ as far as I'm aware.

    From memory it took a very long time for a staff response, and you were the first one I believe? 

    Kai (Admin) was the first person to respond within a few hours with me following a few days later. There was a single moderator who agreed with you at the time and didn't give any further reasons as so why they agreed. 

    35 minutes ago, Mintlou said:

    Totally unnecessary. I give more than enough reasoning for my requests, it isn't just complaining. I will put the work in to explain it and although it sounds arrogant, I know that ultimately my version of what each moderator role should do would yield more positive results, as seen from previous Outbreak owners over the years.

    This is not my opinion or comment from just this thread. That is the whole demeanor i have seen from you for the years that i have known you. You do not like to follow rules. you do not like when you are told no. 

    37 minutes ago, Mintlou said:

    Which is precisely why you deserve to be trusted enough to have full access in my book. 

    Just because you or I have the ability to control most of what happens in our jobs and are mostly unrestricted doesn't mean that should flow over to every aspect of your life. Your job will still have major boundaries on what you can do or what you can implement. This is the same as Outbreak, Everything comes in steps.

    I'll check back in 6 months time when I prove myself correct yet again. 

    I hope you are still around and I hope to see you then.

    First of all, I am almost certain that not one of the current admin/mod team has said the below. You are once again twisting words and making up bullshit to try and make your points more valid.

    "It's clear that ownership doesn't care anymore, all of the staff openly admit it"

    The community is not only failing due to just the lack of work being done, the community is failing due to the fact that everyone is not attempting to bring new people into the community also. We have launched Jailbreak, Minigames, Retake and Minecraft servers all over the space of the last year and each and every time the servers have been played for a few weeks then dropped as people did not carry on playing them. 

    We try and find new server that can be used to bring people into the community but time and time again, even after forum votes, these servers are not what people are interested in. This then caused the servers to be left empty and therefore rendered useless.

    I ended up stepping down due to the lack of things mods were actually able to do that the time.

    Mintlou, You stepped down because you wanted to immediately gain access to all the powers you possibly could. You wanted to be able to Hide, delete and edit peoples posts on the forums as soon as you were incorporated into the admin team. You also wanted top level Teamspeak rights for every moderator which is simply not needed. 

    You are a stroppy child who cant handle being restricted or ignored and will throw all of his toys out of the pram to get what he wants. You'd make a real good leader.

    (Multiple responses were sent to the below post, before you say you were ignored on it)

    I'm just sick of being in a position where I don't have the correct perms to do this properly.

    Teamspeak

    • Can't see TS Bans ----- (Correction, looks like you can now see this.  :banter:)
    • Can't ban for more than a day 
    • Can't delete own bans
    • Can't give channel talk priority
    • Can't edit channels
    • Can't change user description
    • Can't go into small council chambers
    • Can't see the complaints list
    • Can't see the TS permissions list for channels, members or self - really. I can't even see what I can/can't do?
    • Can't see server log
    • Can't post in all chat

    Forums

    • Can't delete own post
    • Can't delete other posts
    • Can't move spam posts
    • Can't give warning points
    • Can't edit other posts
    • Can't close topics
    • Can't post everywhere without the approval thing. Mods should not have that enabled on them AT ALL.
    • Can't approve posts
    • Can't view bans/sanctions/warning points

     

    We are just members with the ability to move and give perms in TS. So really we're glorified event hosts. I don't want there to be a secret group of "trusted potential mods" who might one day get the correct tools. If you don't think we're able to do this role while being trusted, get me out of it. If you do think I can do it, let me.

    I am angered by the amount of needless control that has been imposed onto this role. It is the work of a tinkerer that has stepped into the realm of being a control freak. It actually makes me livid when I discover new things we can't do. I was asked to ban a known person in TS who is permabanned, which I can't do for more than a day. How fucking pathetic does that make us look when the reason is "Permed" but I can't do anything more about it than a 24hr ban?

    My 9-5 job is server administration/creation and maintenance so I'm used to having all access to everything without restriction, coming home to this every night just isn't worth my time now with the current setup. If there are no plans to change this and you're happy with the setup, put me back in the members group for now please.

    "My 9-5 job is server administration/creation and maintenance so I'm used to having all access to everything without restriction, coming home to this every night just isn't worth my time now with the current setup." - My favorite line because its almost as if I'm not in the same job role as you...

    I'm working on the modded side of the server but I've been very busy at work recently and have been a bit too drained to spend another few hours working out the proccess of modding the server and balancing accordingly. 

    If anyone has any previous experience in modding a DayZ server, help would be greatly appreciated ?
