To me the difference between having a manager for one server means they have more pressure on them to get it going. Imo with the Development Team there is less pressure when the whole group is told to step it up. Also not to mention that others are more interested in other servers or just want the perks of being in control of a server..

We have 13 members in the group and about half of them are staff+. The others I do not see anymore or hear about them working on a server. Only person thats not a staff+ and is just a member who i hear usually does stuff still. That would be Salt (NaCL). I believe its time we redo the Dev team or go back to managers at this rate. Will look further into this as well when I talk to the rest of the Staff+.

I definitely like the points brought up about the console threads. I know that Roaxes does a lot of console gaming on Nintendo systems, but how deep others are with console gaming in the community, that I'm not sure... but uh, to add to the whole console stuff, red dead redemption 2 anyone?

Also, if anyone finds a good cross platform game to play (hopefully one that is cross platform with pc too so i can join in), that would definitely be a neat idea for an event, if we can get enough people with whatever game it is on board.

Beep boop.

Jailbreak: Is there anything that needs improvement on? Rules, Server, Mods, Other? JB needs to lighten its rules, literally cant have fun anymore. There are so many rules that make things I used to do back in the old days on JB impossible and it really ruins my memories I had because I cant do what I did. Server still crashes just as much, as it crashed like 3 times yesterday while I was playing and 2 times tonight
Other servers: Does TTT need improvement? Who plays EgN TTT?
Scoutknives? Mods such as rpg and else? To be 100% honest, Scoutknives can be fun, but it has no potential no matter what you think. the people who play scoutknives have so many choices for servers, why play on a server that is the same thing as everything else but strict rules?
A new server? Zombie mod, Surf, other? No, just no. Zombie mod will flop harder then you can believe Cough NaCl Cough :D. (I liked it but EgN is about JB not ZM/ZE). just make a surf rpg or just surf and do weekly events on it for the first 2 months to populate it, I'd play it.
Is the vanilla server necessary? Or should it be changed to something else? Yes, It really is. when everyone was on it for some reason and I got on, It really showed how fun EgN Vanilla can really be when everyone plays, The community just needs to create more events for servers like these to populate them. Servers don't populate themselves you know.
Does anything else need to change inside of EgN? YES!!! You need to do more events on servers like MG (when its fixed and ready to play, cause I'd play it 24/7) and on Vanilla or GunGame. You cant complain about servers being dead then do nothing about it in return. Events can really populate servers. MG was dead til I started getting others on it (With the help of EgN members who also liked it) Then the server broke, or was down and it permanently damaged the population. People in EgN don't simply join a server and play it by their selves, you have to do events to bring everyone together and show them how fun the server is when everyones on. btw, did I mention that jb literally still crashes just as much after the IP change (its better then before though, so that's good). But either way, good luck to the dev team and everyone working on the servers and shit, you just gotta make them playable and not boring and then help populate it.

*Delete RTD from MG once you get it fixed, Literally everyone who wants to keep it doesn't even play MG. why complain if you don't play. It really ruins the game for everyone, more people complain about it then they like it*

Everything I just said probably made me look like an idiot, its 1:30 AM stfu.

To be honest, don't feel much of a need for them either unless we do cross over more towards console (successfully being that it'll take a lot work & time, and we have to have an active population there)

But yea, everytime I post information about a new playstation only game I normally put it in Technology & Games anyways, so we could just cut it down there.

That, or make a new section titled just "Console Gaming", and incorporate them together


We've tried that plenty of times, I'm sure. It's the same reoccuring problem we have when populating a server. We need more motivation given from the community to not only expand to different games and/or gamemodes besides jailbreak, but expand through different consoles. It's just the matter of fact that everyone grew around jailbreak so that's what they like. Sometimes, more often than not, those who do join the clan are PC gamers and don't have a console to expand to (like you pretty much said). And from there, we get our players from jailbreak Counter Strike which majority of the time means they either don't have the greatest computer, or they just really like Counter Strike: Source.

But I think it'd be a grade A idea if we expanded to console gaming, but that again just requires a lot of time & effort given by the community which isn't at it's strongest suit.

Wouldn't be too bad if we had a few members try to "recruit" per se through other games, but also most of those people aren't really looking to join a gaming community. Most of the time they're just playing the game to play the game.


I'm sure you could ask BriBee how difficult it is getting Social Media up & out there. Put a lot of effort to it. Especially given we're a gaming community, a bit more difficult to merge the two together unless done on Twitch which is as hard as it gets unless we do some sort of giveaways to attract attention. That said, we would have to brand our name everywhere to do so as well. But again, all of this can be done if we're given more commitement and incentive from the community, but I myself even would be unrealiable in that regards mainly because it does take a lot of time and effort to continue that approach but if there was cooperative work then I'd possibly jump in.

Anyways, all great ideas, just wanted to throw in some thought not to blow all your ideas to the ground. Definitely needs work!

Edit: noticed you mentioned console games that cross platforms, ain't too bad of an idea as long as you find the right game

gunna have to elabortate on that because it's the same thing that's been said from the three years i've been here

Jailbreak: Is there anything that needs improvement on? Rules, Server, Mods, Other? Staff should have along meeting on how to get more admins in the server and figure out a way to stop the server crashing, should be number 1 priority and staff+ should be the people starting to get in there more to create a chain reaction for the rest of the community follow them and get population up so EgN can stay alive.
Other servers: Does TTT need improvement? No, server is fun if the same effort went into all the servers, there will be less problems.
Scoutknives? Mods such as rpg and else?Add necessary EgN plugins (rank tag, spray mod, swap mod, etc.)
A new server? Zombie mod, Surf, other? Start to look for ways to enter into csgo....
Is the vanilla server necessary? Or should it be changed to something else? Change it to a comp server and add a comp plugin. css comp with ranking system will be pretty cool.
Does anything else need to change inside of EgN? Yeah most people want to come here to have fun and relax, so find a middle ground between being extremely strict to the rules and keeping members and regulars happy.

lol i created this game

Jailbreak: Is there anything that needs improvement on? Rules, Server, Mods, Other?N/A
Other servers: Does TTT need improvement?N/A
Scoutknives? Mods such as rpg and else?The admin tools need more options (swapping)
A new server? Zombie mod, Surf, other?N/A
Is the vanilla server necessary? Or should it be changed to something else? N/A
Does anything else need to change inside of EgN? [Minigames] Maybe do the weapon menu (Yesterday the players on the server did not get the weapons every round because they move out of the area to fast when they used RTD) Another thing to add is the ranks.
