Added IRL Trading Rules: IRL Trading The ability to trade for IRL on Aether is a privilege and should be treated as so - the ability to partake in IRL trading can be revoked at any moment. IRL trading posts should be as clear & straightforward as possible - you are allowed to take offers but never try to get a price you know is unreasonable once you realize somebody is ignorant to the average price, especially if you have sold that item or currency before. IRL trading posts should be posted in the Discord trading channel, leave IRL trading out of the in-game advert/OOC or anywhere invasive - discussing this in private is fine but do not go out of your way to bug people selling things if they haven't asked.

Bee what the fuck

+1 but only if you get a profile picture

movie night with the family. i think i should win because i am doing my best.

I should win because I should win

I believe i should win because I USED to be an active player and recently started playing again, i'm aiming to become staff on this server as I am staff on another server in which the owner is close to the owner. I'm planning to play pretty long term, got over 7k hours on gmod and I am very active.

@Bee should win.

AetherNetwork Staff Application In-Game Name: OGz Angel Age: 26 Steam ID (Use steamid.io): STEAM_0:1:439388552 Discord Tag: x0xangeldustx0x Playtime (!time in-game): 4w 1d 17h 6m. Timezone: ‎(UTC-5)‎ When do you usually play? (e.g. Weekdays 5–9PM): I usually try to be on during night-time hours, 5pm to around 6-9am when I fall asleep, I have trouble sleeping so Gmod is something I use to keep my mind occupied. Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/Ahobbitstalebybillbobaggins/ Why do you want to be Staff?: I feel like my main goal is I'd like to make Events like Donnie or Vetes, I really enjoyed the fun and memories made during those time periods and would like to bring joy to people like they do, that aside I also really enjoy playing in this server and don't see myself quitting anytime soon, I love most of the people in Aether and for the most part I get along with a vast majority and would love to help keep their experience with the game a good one and also provide myself with good experiences. How do you believe you can make Aether's environment better?: I know I'll be starting off small, but I'd like to be someone people can go to if they need someone to talk to, or if they need something resolved, I've been told by friends I give good advice and would love to be given the chance at utilizing these skills, I am also on during the sleeping hours so having a night time staff would be ideal for some people who play in the night hours. I also want to take part in creating fun scenarios as I said in my reasoning for wanting to be staff. I do understand that I won't be able to be on every night due to IRL realistically, but I do feel my presence as a staff member will keep people from wanting to cause trouble during the night when I am, even if it doesn't, I will be there to handle it. Have you read the rules fully, understand and feel comfortable enforcing them as correctly as possible?: I have read the rules fully and understand them, I am willing to enforce them as correctly as possible. Space for any extra comments you might have (feel free to speak your mind): I feel like this will give myself a good opportunity to develop skills I may not have, and would enjoy the chance to make a difference! and I thank everyone for their support, but also if you don't support that is okay too! at least at the end of the day I can say I tried. Thank you for reading my application and hopefully I can make the cut! Rule Questionnaire Give one example of RDM: When a player decides to off another player for no reason, this could be considered a form of RDM. Give one example of NLR: After a Raid within 30mins if you return to your place of death, you will then be breaking NLR. What sign would a player place on their base to avoid being raided whilst having no raidables?: You can either put up a "building" sign or a "RP ONLY" sign. If you get RDM'd are you allowed to kill the RDMer back?: No, because then you'd of then be RDMing that person, best to get a clip / sit involved from the situation. Give an example of a Staff abusing their powers: If Monika decided to freeze me in the void and prevent me from leaving for eternity this could be a form of abuse.

+1, Great interactions with you, you're very active and helpful around the server.

+1 I have only had good interactions with you; you are very active on the server. I wish you would be more active in forums, but besides that, I don't see anything wrong.

+1 honestly I think you would be great as staff. I always see you helping others that are new and just overall great with the community and I would love to see how you do as staff! So far as the app goes it’s done well the only comment I would say is to change the colour where it’s not all white just the questions but that’s not a major issue. I wish you luck for you’re app and let’s dice roll sometime 😌

+1

besides some grammatical errors, seems good. +1

+1 goodluck

+1 hang out with him for a little, nice guy

Hi my name is Styx In-game on Steam I go by Delightful. I have been on the server for around 4/5 days and I'm sure some of yall have met me and spoken to me so here I just want to introduce my self and a little bit and If you have more questions please ask! I have been playing gmod for about 11ish years and for the almost 2k hours 90% of it has been staffing or running gmod servers more than actually playing until I branched out and started to play DayZ(arma 2) Cod, TF2, Warframe, ETC.. I am always down to game usually doesn't matter the game as long as your cool and friendly I don't have a issue gaming with you, I just want people to respect one an other and treat others the way you wish to be treated. I got two dogs Sadie and Maverick both 9yo Aussies and they are a handful at some point ill post pics maybe unless by popular demand! and also too add I will be leaving to the AF within the next few months so I am happy to spend that time with all of you guys this truly have been the most fun I have had on gmod in a very long time!

I sadly did not I was a Xbox player back in those days!

Heya, met you in-game and you seemed chill nice to see you're sticking around

Hi styx wanna dice roll 2bill? Lol

It's hard to appreciate how tedious it can be to make sweps and other things for Garry's Mod unless you've done it yourself; great job! Keep making funny things and working on different styled projects! Tons of great tutorials to help you advance your addons further

Tips & Tricks Using 1 way walls There's 2 common methods used on Aether, from very simple to a bit more complicated; Method 1 --> A prop that should be familiar to any regular Garry's Mod player can be used as a 1 way very easily. Simply place the prop down in front of you and use nearly any of the materials available. You'll notice that one side should be fairly see through while the other is not at all. ( models/props_building_details/storefront_template001a_bars.mdl is the prop in images ) Method 2 --> This method is a bit more complex but adds for a really nice defense for your base. I'm going to use blocks in this demonstration, but naturally you would want to use the plastic plates or some sort of wall-like prop. Step 1: Start by using the stacker tool to duplicate the prop so that there is 2 side-by-side. If it's hard to notice the difference between the 2 props, try holding toolgun or holding down C on your keyboard and hovering over the prop with your cursor to outline it. Step 2: Now that you have your 2 props side-by-side, you'll want to switch over to the material toolgun and search the letters "VGUI" and the one you need will be the only one available with that name. You want to use this material on the prop that will be INSIDE of your base (the side you want to be transparent) Step 3: After you've completed step 2 you should be left with something like this. Next we're going to remove that nasty grid from the material. This is super simple yet so easily missed; switch over to your color toolgun and make sure that Render Mode = Normal, and Render FX = None. You will see 4 boxes while in the color tool menu, and in the very last box enter the number '1'. Then all you've got to do is use the color tool on that nasty grid material to make it 100% transparent. Remember you can hold C on your keyboard or use toolgun to see this prop Step 4: Now that you've got your regular prop beside your invisible prop, it's time to do the magic with the color tool. This time, you'll want to make sure that Render Mode = Glow, and Render FX = None. Make sure to change that '1' you had previously changed back to 255 to make sure nobody can see through on the other side. Select a nice color for the theme of your base and use it on the prop that we haven't touched yet. Bam! You've made yourself a great 1 way! How to record my gameplay/install Medal Medal is a clipping software used by many different styles of gamers. Here in Garry's Mod, we typically use it to record evidence incase of a staff related sit; whether you're the one making the report or need to show your side when being reported. The installation and first time use was demonstrated by @NotYourMomsPancakes in an earlier guide. Available here. How to find items you've been looking for There's a few ways you can go about this, and I suggest doing them all depending on how bad you want what you're looking for. Discord --> The Discord server offers a trading forums that is probably more active than you think! Assuming you're cool and are already in the discord server, click the trading channel and this is what you'll see. All you've got to do is add a title, a message and a tag showing whether you're buying or selling! /advert in-game --> I'm not saying to go around annoying everyone with spam messages, but an advert every 10-15 minutes mentioning that you're selling or looking to buy an item may help you out. It's worth a shot, right? How to setup keybinds Setting up binds is relatively simple, first you'll need to start off by figuring out which key is what for console commands. Thankfully for me, there's a steam guide on this here. After you figure out which key is what, head over to your in-game Garry's Mod console. For keybinds that you want to run as console commands, type them like this (stopsound, kill) For keybinds that you want to run as chat commands, type them like this (job cmds, adverts, purchases) If you are unsure what command you need, then you can back out of your console, and press F1. From here you'll see a long list of green and red commands, the green commands are all of the commands that your job has access to. For example, if you're looking to bind meth refills then your command is; Trading in-game for IRL Trading in-game items or money for real-life money is perfectly fine as long as you are keeping yourself safe. Before making an IRL trade, I suggest that you let whichever staff you're closest to know that you are going to be doing this deal. Make sure it's a clear message showing; 1) The value of in-game trade 2) How much money 3) Other party accepting this deal in clear wording I also suggest that you make sure this player is somewhat trusted or known on the server. You don't want someone you can't trust with your email or payment details. None of this is enforced, this is just my own personal suggestion. How much is my item worth / How rare is my item? Finding out what the worth or rarity of your item is can be a pretty stressful task. Thankfully when it comes to limited items, there is a spreadsheet available made by @havoc that will tell you exactly how many there are in circulation. You can find this spreadsheet here. Limited > Only available for a set amount of time. Has no chances of coming back after leaving. Legendary > A common type of permanent item, usually used as a filler in 'Normal' crates. Store-Blessed > Items purchased in packages from !store with real-life money. Contraband > Actual permanent weapons found in contraband crates. Relic > Usually funny/meme items found in 'Relic' crates. Seasonal > Items that are released yearly depending on the season/event. i.e, Halloween Event, Christmas Event. Seasonal-Contraband > Same as Seasonal rarity except these are real weapons like Contraband. Luxury > A low chance item found in Luxury crates. Exotic > A low chance item found in Exotic crates. Warped > A low chance lightsaber found in Warped crates. If your item is not a limited you should try to reach out to a well known collector for a price estimate, if you cannot find anyone with a price then I suggest listing the item on market for more than what you feel is fair and work your way down as the time goes on. Having the item on market will give other players a chance to see that you are selling this item and someone may even come to you with an offer. Making Garry's Mod run better on Aether If you plan on mainly playing Aether, then it's probably a pretty good idea to uninstall from all the unnecessary addons you've accumulated on your time playing. This is super simple, just head to Garry's Mod main menu and click on "Addons". Hardly any of the addons I have installed currently are from Aether, and are likely slowing my game down a ton. To uninstall/unsubscribe from all of these, click the little wrench in the bottom right. Click 'Uninstall All' and then 'Confirm'. Before loading back into Aether, be sure to install Aethers content available here! How to toggle !bodyperms permanently If you suffer from poor internet or just general lag on the server, disabling bodyperms can go a long way. I don't mean the classic !bodyperm command, I mean permanently show NO ONE'S bodyperms. This is possible by entering the following command into console cl_weapon_holsters 0 You can reactive bodyperms permanently using the same command except changing the '0' to a '1'; cl_weapon_holsters 1
