[RP Names]

@Mayo just make a report in game and ask an administrator to free the rp name ?

[Tokens]

You can buy someone tokens here by just putting in their SteamID, but under no circumstances should you use token flips as a way to 'gift' tokens or it will result in a severe punishment

Thank you very much for the recommendation ❤️ ?

As requested by @ByReaper, this video should make it a lot easier when people don't know how to set up a fading door correctly as they can simply be linked this video!

 

[Making rules less blurry]

Yes, I understand, they're self explanatory. I made this because some people still have questions about these types of things. It's just to make things more clear. And having the knowledge of being reported is a rare scenario, but it has happened before, it's just an example after all.

Yeah I understand, some of the rules are pretty vague but at the same time they can't be too long so there just needs to be a balance which can only be found by seeing what problems arise. In relation to the LTA thing, I meant that getting evidence of the person who has been reported being knowledgeable of them being reported and therefore leaving the server/going AFK would be the tricky thing to get(if that makes sense lol)

[Making rules less blurry]

I feel like most of these are pretty self explanatory, especially 1.3 and 1.7 -- if someone is AFK when needed for a sit usually I just put  text screen up saying something along the lines of '/pm Turtle when you're back, if you leave you will be banned for LTA.' However I think that it would be difficult to prove that someone had the knowledge of them being reported and as a result left, and if that evidence was apparent it would just be common sense to ban them. IMO Rule 1.7 is pretty blatant in its meaning when it says 'third party software ', it already covers everything. 

Edit: I only saw the top three and didn't scroll down ?

[Clarification on rules]

But what counts as not using it? It's a very vague statement. If 3 gangsters are walking along after mugging someone, they are not using their guns however they have "used" their guns therefore i cannot kill them? Say for instance you know 3 gangsters are also walking along and mugging everyone in sight. They have waited the cooldown of mugging but you see them with guns. Now if you go over, they could then mug you and you have no option as it would be fail RP. It's very vague. 

 

It needs to be binary yes or no on guns not certain exceptions as it just causes problems like this. 

That's exactly what I'm saying, the rules on this and others things are vague and should be updated to help players  and staff.

[Clarification on rules]

If they have a weapon out but aren't using it you have to warn them, and if you tell someone they are under arrest and they pull a weapon out you can kill them (this has been clarified by Jamie.) IMO the rules need the right balance between information and length, which can only be found by editing them until no further problems arise.

I DIDNT DEMOTE ANYONE 

As others have said, if that is true make a staff complaint here.

[I got jailed for "demoting someone for rdm"]

As @S1CK said, demotions are only for RP reasons, you cannot demote for rule breaks. That is the whole reason behind the !report system. Furthermore, if you demote someone for RDM and it turns out they had a hit on you, you've then falsely demoted someone as well as being in the wrong the whole time. ?

I hope that you're referring to me as the queen ❤️ 

[Got money, no PayPal]

Hi, Alfonzo.

Although we appreciate your interest in the server and purchasing tokens, unfortunately, PayPal is the only method of purchase - apologies.

try writing check_rank in console or !checkrank in chat

Please follow the steps shown above, if that does not work please contact me further and it will be sorted  

[Token transfer]

Unfortunately, we cannot transfer tokens from one account to another as they are the amount that you accumulate on that certain account for the amount of time that you play for. You will need to either play for longer on your current account or purchase them via PayPal or IGM. Apologies. 

[Can't locate the sever map]

 i first tried to delete the map folder still said the same, then i tried to unsubscribe vworkshop and it downloaded it while i was going in and yet the motherfucker still says the same...

There may be a few other reasons why it isn't working - you may not have enough storage space available, or the map installation location differs to your gmod file location. Try moving the file into the general 'garrysmod' file location. (Not 'GarrysMod'). Ensure  that the map is in the 'map' folder, and not addons or downloads.

[Can't locate the sever map]

Hi, Happy Gunther - this has happened to me before.

All you have to do is delete the files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\maps, and then verify your game cache; you most likely have a corrupt game file. Alternatively, you can unsubscribe from it via the workshop and then let the server download it for you manually. If this doesn't work, let me know.

I honestly had no idea what this was until this guide -- good job Xappan, I'll be using this in future builds.

Can't you change your name in the settings? 

I've just done it twice.

Edit: Maybe it may be VIP only who knows. 

Older accounts are able to although newer ones cannot unfortunately.

Thanks, thought someone who could administrate forums might be able to go onto account settings

We are able to moderate the forums although we cannot give you a new name as we do not have those permissions, apologies.

[Please change my name]

Good evening, Josh.
Unfortunately, we are unable to edit your name on the forums and you are also not able to edit your own name via settings; the only solution I can think of is making a new forum account so that the moat.gg does not stay with you forever.

That works for me, although I thought that those were only my permissions. I spoke to other users about it and they said that they did not have the option ?
