Jager

your face is a vagina...

sorry to see you go Octa, but thank you for your work. It is also a sign of professionalism to know when its time to step aside. it is much appreciated that you are willing to do it without being asked. When you are ready to come back please let us know, we will save you a spot

generally, It is much easier for me to let whomever else is helping me with technical issues handle the publicity side of things, while i focus on the code. It is hard to multitask when it comes to technical issues dealing with SG, and so having someone else focus on the communication side while I deal with the stuff no one sees. That's why Revenga posts lots of stuff with the starting line "Jager and I were doing XYZ" . not that I mind, I have been away for almost 5 years from SG staff. not to mention that having a lower public profile helps out when I need to arbitrate and play peacemaker. the less biased I appear, the more likely people are to trust my decisions and trust that I am not playing favorites also I am an actual dad to a young son, so whether people see me as a parent in SG or not, doesn't mean I don't know how to deal with them

Due to the nature of the issues with sourcebans, and our hosting provider, we cannot give a set time that we will have the problems with servers, bans, admins, subs, etc all sorted out. However as a temporary measure I have added admin info and perm ban info to each server individually. Due to the nature of the temporary fix and having to keep the files read only, only those with direct dedicated server access can change or add subs and admins etc. What does this mean for you? Admins please check your rank relevant section for the details on how this affects you. Subs and donators, your permissions will work, however if you are donating/subbing for the first time, there will be a delay as you are added to the server cluster. It may take up to a week as well, as that is when i overhaul all the files and clean up the servers. If you are having issues with your sub/donation permissions post a request along with your steam id in the forums and I will add you to the list to check on. If you take several days to receive your bonuses in game, you will receive those days back free as long as you let us know you aren't getting your game access on the forums. again continue to use the ban/admin/complaint system as you all have as normal. once we straighten out the communication issues with the servers and hosts, sourcebans will just automatically work. thanks for being patient, it has taken me several days to rule out what was wrong, and to get the proper tickets in to our website and dedi hosts, so things are being worked on, just slowly.

obviously the problem was listed right in the headline. she was driving a MINI. She should get something bigger

you should totally message dirk about a dance he can teach you to do while you are in Hawaii. don't worry, he'll love it that you asked

My wifes account has second in command access to the SG clan, jsut like dirks alt account, so if you need to be added let us know. Dirk and I are in different clans due to inactivity in SG, but if that changes we can make adjustments. Also we need or should consider an SG WoWS clan/division when that's available. I will create a channel for us to hang out in for now

the rumors of my demise were only slightly exaggerated, but I am getting better.

hmm best win... i guess would be the tier 3 pwnage, however technically the tier 6 isnt premium so... either way here are the two screenshots tier 6 vk3001h pre 8.5 changes in tanks with the short 8.8cm L56 gun. tier 3 pzS35f premium tank both on x5 weekends, but usually you get terrible baddie teams on those weekends. also who loves POTTERY BARN!!!!!

Well it has been a good run, and a fun ride, but today is the day that I step down from my duties at SG. I cannot be as brash as Astrum (My post would be a frothing rage filled chasm of bile, chewing its way through the earth, caustically burning and eroding everything in its wake while breaking the seven seals and seven bowls of revelation before writhing itself to the surface in a blackened throne of human remains. Before opening my mouth and singing the song of your damnation and destroying what feeble excuse for a mind that may exist in the readers skull. I would watch you all burn with the remains of literary prose that would blacken the sky with its potency.) but I will do my best to express myself in as short of a novel form as possible. I started as an SA in 2007 and worked my way to VP before our new owners joined, I am happy to see the expanded and heavily automated backend and systems that SG now uses, that I was able to help create and maintain. they are a far cry from the tedious day to day hand adding bans, admins, and donators of the past, and those of you who helped me I am very appreciative for your help. I originally stayed on after haggard stepped down due to lack of technical expertise, and While Astrum and I managed things fairly well, With new owners, And Astrum stepping down, I believe it is time for me to do so as well. I just recently got out of the hospital after almost 2 weeks due to a nasty bug, and combining the recovery with being SG's last line of defense has taken its toll on me. My time for SG related work has dropped off some, and other then the odd Ddos or hacker, the systems here at SG are extremely robust and fairly easy to fix and upkeep, so I have in essence worked myself out of a job. That coupled with Astrum stepping down, and new ownership, I strongly feel it is time for me to let them move forward with the newer staff and their goals and such for SG. Garfield left the former staff with many "promises" of what to expect, and many of them were not kept (demotions and promotions and access being top of the pile) the new owners were not informed of the various points or do not care per se, and have decided it is easier to reshuffle staff as a first step to making SG into their vision of a gaming community. Unfortunately the viewpoints and ideas I had hoped SG might move into are not feasible at this time, and while it isn’t fair to expect the new ownership to backup garfield's promises, I do expect the new owners to live up to the threads and posts they originally made, I am not surprised, just saddened by the way many things have been handled. I have always moved mostly behind the scenes, working throughout the night, and sometimes days straight to give SG the absolute best that money cannot buy. volunteer work as it is was not my plan for a future, and while I enjoy giving back, there is only so much I am willing to take before it becomes obvious that my value here is under appreciated and I am being used without any sort of thanks or even continuing to keep my rank and status so I can continue to work effectively and efficiently, Haggard is and was the main reason I have dumped so much time and energy into this community, and with him gone the dream that is SG has faltered. The personal connections and camaraderie I have built up over the years has certainly not gone, but My love for the now desecrated temple that is SG has withered and fallen like the broken husk parts of it are. I rarely find myself firing up a steam game right now especially CS:S, and I pretty much just sit "on call" to answer and fix stuff that the rest of the staff cannot. This means SG is more of a non paying job at this point that is simply using my talents when all else fails. I simply do not have the energy to continue 24 hour on calls for SG when my passion for SG has now turned into a job. After training Jen, Paul, The Good Tyrant, and others to maintain day to day operations, I am not needed as much, so hopefully things will continue to run smoothly in my absence. I will still be available if some sort of catastrophe occurs beyond the scope of the current staff, But otherwise will be inactive as a BD/former VP until further notice. Those of you with my number feel free to txt if my services are needed. Jager, Vice President, Chief Technical Officer, and President of Vice I leave you with an old saying I remember from childhood, “The gunslingers prayer” May your travels bring you peace, at one end of my gun or the other, and blessed be the bullets that end you, may they fly as true as the heart wishes.

niko when jen and i found you abusing your admin with noclipping and various other issues with a "person" abusing your admin, (you claimed it was your ex, but people heard you on vent talking..) jen and I turned off your admin and messaged you why, and I even talked to you about it for more then 15 minutes, ending with we are not going to turn your admin on until further notice. now about your messages, I have gotten a few messages from you saying "hey jager, or yo, or admin is broken," but by the time i received them you are offline, and i have no pm about it. so I do nothing assuming if it was important you would do more then just randomly message me. I am sorry you arent happy that you are unable to talk to the higherups, but i was very clear about why your admin was off, and you said you would get back to me with proof that it wasnt you so I could review it and decide about turning you back on again. the onus is on you to follow up, and steam messaging me random stuff isnt conversing or pming me. anyway if you have further evidence I can look at to make a decision then I am happy to take a look, otherwise sorry, but I was by no means unclear about the issues.
