It's not the staff's fault...

Once we find a way to implement a solid punishment system for trashtalking this should improve the general toxicity of the community because people will be less willing to risk a large punishment.

xD In my opinion, hell no.

The community won't fix itself, and some mods have the delusion that they are handling the situation well. Right now I keep my chat off to keep myself from being verbally abused, but since the devs prioritize fixing broken, crappy gamemodes nobody plays over, I don't know, adding /CHAT OFF, I don't have much faith in the devs fixing it either. They tried adding a trash talk filter, but it doesn't work, of course.

You could argue that I'm not doing MY job, but as a person who says "sorry" after a deathmatch cleanup, I don't think it's me making matters worse. If no one on the staff team steps up and implements new rules and actually enforces them, then this community will be on an exponential decline until nobody wants to play anymore.

Saying sorry after a dm cleanup is nothing, a smart player wouldn't really go straight into the fight, it's their own mistake, and anyways, getting targeted for 6 minutes then getting called ez, is completely different.

I understand that the Staff Team would like to give a bit of leash to the community on the way it runs, but sometimes they need to put their foot down. And put it down hard, sometimes in order to reach serenity you must go through hell and back.

I'd rather say sorry for something that could potentially not be my fault rather than be hated for doing it in the first place. Anyway, I'm not causing problems. That's what I was going for. I see what you mean by that, though.

I highly doubt bad members will fix themselves. This is a place where there's no motivation to be nice, and the rules on being nasty are lax.

Here's a list of all the rules that are barely enforced at all.

1. Respect all staff members and their decisions
Many players hate the staff for no reason.
2. Do not disrespect or harass other members
Welp this rule is nonexistent
3. Do not use derogatory or profane language
Not as common, but lots of players have been called "noobs" xD
4. Do not discriminate other members
A lot of stereotypes are based around Turks.
5. Do not spam
/v 2 /v 2 /v 2 /v 2
8. Do not start argue/flame wars
Is this enforced at all? No.
11. Do not mislead people
/hub stats and the other hundreds of ways to lie to innocent players.
14. Do not start drama
Hmm. Pretty sure this rule has been ignored as well.
18. You may not control more than one account on a server at one time unless directly given permission by a member of the Sr. Staff.
Even YouTubers blatantly admit they have alts...
22. Most importantly, have fun.
Hmm...

Well that's not too many rules. In fact, that's only... oh, that's over a third of the general rules. I hope that the meaningless ones are removed and replaced with ones that help us as a whole community.

I have a solution, it may sound strange, but if you follow these easy steps even you can have access to the solution.

Steps:
1) Realize that targeting, hacking, teaming, etc. has ALWAYS been in the game in its 3 years of existence.
2) Realize that this is JUST A GAME and get over it.
3) Don't let something that matters ABSOLUTELY NONE in your life ruin your day so much that you need to continue your rage onto a forum post.

If you follow these steps above, I guarantee that you will be 100% happier or your money back!

The thing that annoys me is that it's a server that I paid on.. And I don't have that much money so I want to use it well
