Warning To Recruits To Vets

Cool. Just 1 question, If I'm idling ingame on HG server, do I still have to be in ts3?

 

This is your only warning if you are never in ts3 while playing in game, you will get demoted.

 

This isn't a punishment, it is so if you need to be contacted by a member of leadership you can easily be reached. Also it shows that you are taking an active role in communicating with the community. You won't be demoted if you are not on TS3 100% of the time while you are playing on of our servers, it is only asked that you ensure at least a few hours of your playtime on our servers, while a member of HG, is also spent on TS3.

But what's the point?

 

In my situation i play dota with a team outside of HG. What would the point of sitting idle in teamspeak be?

 

And in adition to that, i barely know anybody in teamspeak anymore. Ever since pwned's thread all my good good friends have drifted away from HG for their own reasons. The only reason i come in teamspeak is to tenman. I don't think this should be a rule.

 

One of the reasons i joined this clan is because it seemed like more of a tightly-knit group of people(Which it WAS back when i was a MEMBER.) Doing this gives HG a tone that is similar to "get az manee memburz az yoo kan"

 

idk, just my perspective :>

So you dont idle since all your good friends have drifted away and are not on ts3. Yet you do not go on unless you 10 man. You aren't close to anyone in HG because you do not allow yourself to open up to new people. Im sure thats how it works. You play and talk to new people to build a stronger bond. It doesn't happen itself.

wut

 

nobody in HG plays dota (except for weeman and evolution). We have never had an event to try and get people ambitious about playing dota. We don't have a team for CSGO in ESEA. Just looking at teamspeak now, 70-80& of all the users are either in csgojb or cssjb or perp. No offense to any of those players but nobody is playing any serious games.

Can we please stop pretending this is what ever happens in teamspeak. If people meet new people in HG, more often than not it's in the server. If someone joins a channel and just starts trying to introduce him or herself or make friends, it's usually nothing more than a bother to people playing. I understand the rule because if you fuck up in the server, being able to be poked or whispered in TS is the fastest way to contact someone. But please stop pretending that people are actively using teamspeak to meet new people. That's just not the case.

Who says its needs to happen all the time. The fact he is saying that he doesn't even know anyone in TS3 is his fault. Hence why I said you PLAY and talk to other people. And laz, believe it or not, people actually do come on to TS3 and try to talk to other members. It has happen and still does.

It's his fault that he doesn't actively go and try to meet new people in teamspeak? Since when did being extroverted become a requirement to join HG? I like to think I've known vetass long enough to know a little about what he's like. It took me a year and a half of hanging around him, lack, and ploot before he started tolerating me. That's the kind of person some people are. I'm the same way. Maybe he doesn't know many people in TS because he has no real desire to meet random jailbreakers, perp players, and RIFTers. He knows most if not all of HG's dota players. Isn't that enough? That being said I don't think I ought to speak for Vetman, so if I said anything wrong please correct me.

 

And sure there are people who meet others in teamspeak. But I am almost positive that the number of these people is far less than the number of people who go around spamming in channels, poking people for 10 mans, and asking random people for help (pickles). I'm not saying at all that I don't like the rule. I think it's a good rule for making sure people are in reach of leadership. But the premise of "We want you in to meet other people in HG" just does not hold up to what actually happens.

No one is saying that you need to go and talk to every single member of the community. But when part of the reason you don't join TS3 is because you barely know anyone, that's a simple fix.. No leadership is telling you to go in TS3 and be outgoing and extend yourself to every single member. It's as simple as what you said, it's to be in reach of leadership. If you don't like the suggestion, SIMPLY IGNORE IT. Easy as that.

I do not really get what all the complaining is about.

 

Friend of HG - Rule doesn't apply

 

Edit: For the love of god, we are not asking you to be in ts3 24x7, we are not asking you to be in ts3 as soon as you launch any games. Just be in ts3 when you are on HG servers.

 

This clearly says it right here. They are not asking you to be in TS3 24/7, Just when your on an HG server.

 

Not on an HG server - Rule doesn't apply

(Example. playing LoL, Doing a Raid on WoW, DD on Neverwinter, Playing Crackhouse on a Non-HG Server. Etc...)

 

Examples of where Rule does apply for -hg- to HG |

10man (This was already a requirement)

Playing HG CSGO, CSS, TF2, JB

Playing any of the HG DM, GG, Minigames, DR H&S

Playing The any of the Gmod servers run by HG (Perp and ZS and DarkRP[if thats still running])

Playing any of the TF2 Servers Run by HG

Playing any of the Minecraft servers run by HG

Playing any of the HG Dayz Servers

 

IF your worried someone is gonna demote you because your idling GG for rep then just put the word "Idle" in your steam name so they know.

 

If my interpretation of the rule is incorrect pls feel free to correct it. I was just trying to explain it

All members are required to be on our TeamSpeak3 Server whenever playing. Will you agree with this rule?

 

Everyone checked yes when they applied or they wouldn't be a member. This shouldn't be something that is complained about or open for discussion. It is a requirement if you wish to be in HG.

We'll just create a forever alone channel

 

Thats what i don't get.

 

Lazerbutt put it fairly well. The first person i met in HG was LaMigra. He was in THE JAILBREAK SERVER at the same time i was, and i asked him about joining HG. My next really good friend was Lackadaisical, his brother was in THE DARK RP SERVER at the same time i was and we made a base together. If we think of my e-social circle as a social web, if you will, it all originated from in the servers.

If your gonna demoted for not being in ts3 that's pretty sad, you want hg to grow but than you are making these obscene rules and asking us to do so much. what ever happened to just let us game when did this become so military? This is not becoming a gaming community its becoming power hungry kids making obscene rules

I find that on Perp especially, where members can play for 8 hours straight, and only see 2 people that whole time, that being in teamspeak means I get to know a lot of guys who I would usually only meet in spectate.

 

Also, It's a lot easier to poke you in teamspeak than to get out of spectate, spawn a car, drive out to where you are and deal with the situation.

 

My question: I've seen a few recruits being complete douchebags ingame, and they aren't in teamspeak. Thing is, if I'm raiding or gov, I don't want to be spectating people and shitz. Do I just leave it up to leadership, does this notice mean we should report it @hgbans, or should I just tell them to get in teamspeak, and handle it warn -> Kick -> Ban?

 

I don't see what's so wrong with being in teamspeak when playing HG. But for the love of God, needs to stop poking me *10man*. I'll 10man, when I want to 10man.
