Yeah well in some cases not much can be done, as we need more people to populate servers in general, which no one does as all they do is play jailbreak.
However, I would like to say that we have literally 0 active managers. Anstrez, Walter and Phillip aren't going to be doing anything any time soon. Dodge Charger says he will do something but actually won't. Semiautonoob is active-ish i suppose, but there hasn't been any major changes and it took a while to fix the admin issue on TTT. Not criticizing him for that as I wouldn't know what i'm doing on gmod servers, but did take long enough for people to get bored and stop populating it due to RDM'ers (main problem with TTT rn is not enough admins, more people should ask for it).
This also links in with Staff+ not really "enforcing" or being more strict with managers. Phillip had a month or two to get his DarkRP server up to scratch, and everyone pitched in to populate it, and it actually worked for a while, but then it was neglected with no essential updates making the whole thing kind of a grind with nothing to do. Staff+ should really take more interest in other servers than jailbreak, and not just the steam message to get on jailbreak to ban someone, or the odd ban report where they need to step in. That's the only thing i've seen them do, which I'll give them the benefit of the doubt as I know they probably don't need to advertise what they do 24/7. I get that life gets in the way a lot, however I know some people have both work and school/college/uni and still manage to get a good few gaming hours in, and also time to post and be active on the forums, but I haven't seen any progression since I rejoined, or should I say since Doldol left, as he was an aight coder from what I heard (not saw his actual code).
And for that last part of the blame, fucking everyone who makes these kind of posts or complaints. Ok so you want us not to be trash, and do better as you believe in the potential of EgN. That's actually great, and not even being sarcastic. But the problem is no one gives suggestions or ways to improve. For jailbreak rules, every admin meeting I believe all jb admins go through EVERY SINGLE RULE and decide what should change, so you're wrong on that part. Jailbreak is covered when it comes to needed attention but people are TOO focused on it, and it's pretty much the topic of conversation in the chatbox when things quiet down.
Welp I feel a bit better now. Wanted to do a manager shit-fest rant for a while but didn't want to be a total cunt. Now i'm a bit better i suppose. I'm sure i'll get proven wrong or shit on soon after I post, which actually isn't bad. I'd prefer to be proven wrong that agreed with tbh.
TL:DR, why did I even bother posting, also EDIT - 4 posts made since writing this fuck me I need to calm tf down
Cool thing is too guys, i'm starting up an oldschool server. i'm talking about good old hostage rescue and defuse, i'm currently in the middle of adding maps and flushing out the server to not be sheit. i'll be making after the meeting to get people to suggest maps and things that might be added to the server. Heads up now, i will not add any skin mods or things I deem, Stupid.
Keep in mind the server is in heavy alpha as well, i don't have FDL and i have to get kharn to link the sourcebans to the server. as well as a password, i don't know about you but i don't think you'll like playing only regular maps at the moment. If you want to inquire about the password, PM me on the forums.
1. Are rules have been updated and will be updated again very soon unless everyone keeps it the same.
2. With servers not being populated, all comes to needs and wants. You can't support what everyone wants the server to be. DarkRP was populated but died on its own and still function if I'm not mistaken. I can't speak for other servers but what i see is that they have minor population which is cool by me. We are still a jailbreak css community which is why you joined.

Ouch Ryan lol
Anyways ttt took so long because none of staff seemed to know who was doing what with it. But yea if people want admin on it all they have to do is ask. Only requirement is to not be a douche and they must have some amount of donation on their forum account.
As for darkrp my wish would be to wipe it and make it as bare as possible because in my opinion there are to many jobs and to many player models which is why It died it got to complicated. Anyways I can't make that decision without Phillip.
Jailbreak does well because there is player interaction and we haven't bloated the server with shit.
Also when doldol was here he helped a lot and was always around. He is still around. And I think staff should ask him to come back as an advisor or manager. Because there is very little help from the co leader.
And i will talk to Phillip in the near future about the fate of darkrp. Sooo

I mean if you guys need people who can code (and actually need the code), I can help / look into stuff (I am a programmer...). Just let me know, and I'll see what I can do!

@phillip my issue is, EgN isnt JUST A jailbreak community. its a GAMING community. so we can TRY to actually do something about it (and yes i was aware theres an admin meeting, but one admin meeting wont fix everything)

We are a gaming community, but gaming has changed a lot over the years. Gone are the days of custom servers in every game. Only indie, or old games have those that let clans like this strive, by recruitng more people playing. GMod, Source, and a lot of the servers we have just don't have a lot of people playing those games, and any new games we play as a clan are hard to recruit for, cause yo u are always being matchmade, play a game, then never see them again. And even then, we've had recruits that way. I am honostly surprised people still play JB, but I love it. A lot of people play GO, Brawlhala, Overwatch, whatever FotM game comes out together, but it's hard to grow as a community with those games. If we want to really grow this clan, we need to find a way to recruit people from games like those. But I think we are a healthly clan, we make sure people follow the rules (to a degree), and although a lot of us can be immautre at times (including myself), we take it in stride.

@charlie we can try to recruit people from those games, but yes, we are kind of a healthy community. but, there can be things to be fixed
