So NGL I never saw that it was there as it is blocked by the name of server.

Any way to change it to make it more clear for People who still wont know?

I removed the Chatbox from displaying the server name so it isn't covering the settings option. This should make it much more obvious where players should go to change up their chatbox.

Moving this suggestion to accepted/finished.

Click the little cog wheel top right of your chat and then 'Chat Options' and tick the 'Display timestamps' option. 

I believe this is clientside, so this should work for you.

I'm not getting the errors on my end so I'm assuming that was a blip, the physgunning was enabled before the latest restart but it broke, it has now been fixed.

I may add an extra purchasable for Premium as long as it doesn't cause any issues, I will test beforehand. 

Thanks for the suggestion.

Skill Tree:

There is already a skill tree in progress from the time it got brought up, I have my own plans for it and it be here eventually.

Raiding/Basing:

Right now I think basing is not terrible, I don't want to make these changes to the rules before I add more raiding tools since when that happens it will be a lot harder to defend and they will need these sort of advantages.

Utility:

The EMP grenades are already in the game but I am patching their buggyness in Multiplayer environments before they go onto dealers, the others grenades I don't think should be in the game, I want more raiding utility that won't result in accidental mass rdms.

Events:

I have added XP to the event crate, I have added making it give a random crate to my list but it's not urgent right now. 

I attempted to fix the event playermodels bugging, they're definitely fixable so I'm fine not adding Halo playermodels and instead just fixing up what we have since it will work. 

The utility entities are fine but not usable in their current state as no event staff would be able to spawn them, I will keep them on my list and maybe give current event admins a way to spawn them.

Jobs:

I appreciate the effort here but I don't like the sound of either of these jobs in Aether's current state. They also have super out of place models.

Job Changes:

I would rather have everything be strong and fun than nerf it into the ground and make everyone on 100% even playing ground with no way to outplay - I have added taking damage with either grapples out will force holster them.

The other suggestions for job changes I have noted but I don't believe them to need changing right now without further investigating and testing. 

Thanks for the suggestions.

I agree with staff running Events each week in a more organized fashion but I don't understand the reason for the colored items/types of events, why would we not just run test events and run the ones that people have the best feedback to?

Also, the items that switch between players would lose its flair after a week or two when people realize their time is not worth an item that disappears after a week.

Due to the mass amount of previous warns and the fact that he came and bothered Pagan/Dreadnaught/others when he was meant to be banned shows he has no intention of improving if he keeps getting the repeat punishments he's been receiving, therefore I have increased his ban length to 4 weeks. 

Thanks for the report.

@UnclearCrowd I believe I remember this being your ban, was the 4 hour ban correct?

I massively reduced the range of the explosions from meth labs, this should stop it being possible to blow people up through walls/through floors.

Fixed on restart.

Accepted

I think you have put in enough time/thought about the server to try and prove to us that you can do a good job at staff, I am curious to see how you fair.

Be sure to read the Handbook fully, update yourself on the rules. 

You will be notified in the Rookie Barracks channel on Discord with further instructions. Welcome to the team!

You are a known/trusted member of the Community, I cannot guarantee that you will stay active but I hope giving you this shot may motivate you. 

Luckily we have an abundance of staff so we can teach you the ropes, I trust @Xrel will give you tips.

Be sure to read the Handbook fully, update yourself on the rules.

Attachments I could find that were restricted for no reason other than being forgotten and have enabled for restart:
-MASS-12 (Slug)
-MASS-12 (Buck)
-Mystery Burst
-Match Ammo
-Reduced Load
-Never Stop Shooting
-Memento Mori
-Make It Count

Blanks are disabled due to people being able to bait PD arrests/other players as they deal 0 damage and do not show in logs.

If you believe I missed some feel free to make another suggestion.

I will add a way to mute DJs whether it be on the radio itself, a chat command or both. 

This really won't make a difference, I appreciate the suggestion and thought but there is 0 evidence that having FastDL in the title of a server increases the amount of minges, however I know from personal experience that having FastDL in the title results in more clicks.

I can almost guarantee that minges searching for servers do not care what 'features' it displays but only if they're banned or not and how many players it has.

FastDL being in the title also does not influence or sway my decisions when introducing updates so there's no worry there, updates will come.

I believe this suggestion has been answered and I am going to move it to denied.

Since you have not responded I am going to close this and flag it as denied.

Feel free to open another appeal if you disagree with this.

I'm gonna say no to nerfing knives, if they become purely cosmetic and can't at least have some sort of use they'll become unwanted and wasted.

Jobs are always being considered, you can expect more jobs to come soon.

I increased the pay but also gave it a large chunk of XP rewarded on completion, making this job great for people that want to farm XP.

ANVictus, you are a prime example of someone who represents the antithesis of this neccesity. You claim we were prop minging, when we were building a checkpoint as a part of RolePlay, you claim we were harrrasing you when we barely talked to you, you didnt warn us before mute, nor did you tell us we could NOT have a barricade

You could've had some defense here if you didn't go straight to Discord and do exactly that it is you're saying you didn't do (harassing victus). 

The rest of your post is you upset about the comment 'i think you need better friends' which is not even something particularly toxic to say and really can't be used as a main defense point. 

Based on the way you've acted in Discord and Victus's reply you'll definitely need some type of video evidence to convince me that you are in the right.

Your ban is relatively short, wait it out and be sure to read the MOTD fully before playing again.

Victus has given his view and I think it's a fair one I agree with, wait out your ban and think through your actions next time so you don't have to apologize in an appeal.

If this wasn't resolved please make another post.

Follow the template or your appeal will not be taken seriously.

All of that you stated is only your word, when trust is an issue you need to provide proof for what you're saying, screenshots of you and lammy talking about making a 'friends only' server etc. But I'm over all that now as I know that I have enough information to assess that situation as I did back when I first made my decision.

So, overall I think I will consider removing your Discord ban in the future but only if you have a good presence in-game and give an actual reason to be unbanned, you wanting to be unbanned doesn't work in this case since you did do something wrong and it was enough in my opinion to warrant a removal from the Forum/Discord platforms.

If I don't see you in-game I won't have a reason to remove your ban, if I start seeing you play the game and having positive interactions with players then another ban appeal would probably sway in your favor. 

You can make another ban appeal after 04/24/2021.

As for Jouaram, when I sent that message I didn't originally intend on making a server but eventually we decided differently, after that message was sent.

Your server popped up on the 27th, that along with you asking about 'Voidcases' (a multiplayer/server only addon) I don't believe that you were messing around in singleplayer, it was evidently prep for your server. The fact you comfortably lied about that just now showcases my worries when dealing with you.

Also, we never told anyone to mass advertise anything, we had explicitly stated that we condemned doing things of the sort.

You met people on Aether, invited them to your Discord and then @'d everyone saying that if they can get *5* players to play consistently on the server they'll be rewarded (who the hell has 5 friends that are going to consistently play) - you are responsible for how members of your Community take this and should have specified NOT to invite from other servers, whether it's in your rules or not it was not stated at all in the announcement post.

An example of a DM that got sent to a player in Aether because of your decision to make that announcement:

It's very obvious why I so quickly shut it down, especially considering people like Lammy are welcomed there I have no idea what Aether players would be exposed to.
