    Psquaw dabs into the post!

     

    First off I'll really miss you. I promoted you to senior because I knew you were a perfect fit for the role. In fact I'd say you probably did a better job managing the server than me at some points. I'm sorry you had to nag at me to get stuff done half the time, I'm just lazy.  

    i wouldn't say refused to act, just didn't do anything. Refused sounds like "NO! I won't fix this problem under any circumstances!" Also you say again but thats the only time in the post anything like that appears sooooo. And also I did click the box that disallows nsfw sprays, but it only works if the user marks the spray as nsfw when they add it.

    But anyways I hope to see you on the server again. You were a great admin and a great friend.

    Me: Lets make a post that says what you know and how you feel
    Also me: Literally forgets all events that fixes the problems

    Damn, I didn't expect that.

     

    Rest in peace to anotha good one. I could always tell you had the potential in ya. This caught me by surprise. I hope to still see you on sometimes. Good luck in the future my dude.

     

    Now that you're just a member, when are you reapplying? :lenny:

    Sorry mate, I just couldn't snap back into it and here we are, and i'll be re-applying in about 
    ∞ -Time, or maybe not we'll see :lenny:

  2. Well this'll come as a surprise to a few, that's for sure, but I feel like I need to tell the truth about what I've felt for a while now; I just don't like Hide And Seek anymore.
    The server has just had too many problems, I don't want to deal with them anymore. Everytime I joined the server, I'd never have any fun because of it, until just getting on felt like a chore.

    But to explain where my lack of interest started, I have to go back to the beginning, around October last year. By this point, i was pretty much a regular on the server, I enjoyed the server, and the server enjoyed having me, it was at this point that I was first asked the question: "When are you applying?". Of course, me being me I had no clue what they meant (@Jat <3) until I realized they wanted me for admin. I couldn't believe it, the staff wanted me for an admin, I'd never even considered it. And so, more under peer pressure than anything else. I applied, and I can admit now, it was my Worst and Best Mistake.
    Near immediately after I became admin, @mbs resigned as manager (Another staff member who wanted me to apply, I love ya btw), It was here where the problems really took off. Following this bombshell came sporadic infighting between admins for who should become manager, and, In my opinion, the second (@Zexired was first, but he said no) best choice came out of the mix. @PsquawOsaurus. I will admit at first, you were great; You went in hands on and fixed the issues mbs had neglected on his way to resigning. And it was also here where I began to lose interest.
    I'm 16, as a few of you know, which means i'm out of the typical age range of those who want to play on Hide and Seek, pretty self explanatory. At around this time, other more suitable and enticing games were appearing on my radar, I slowly began to lose interest. My playtime dropped from the top 5 active to near bottom in less than 2 weeks, I'm surprised I didn't resign then and there, until @PsquawOsaurus messaged me out of nowhere, and i'm still not sure why, If i wanted to become a New Senior Admin after he was promoted. Of course, i said yes. It breathed fresh life into my role and i bounced back, if only temporarily; for around this time a major admin abuse scandal took place, (I won't say who here, as it's long over, but anyone on HnS will know). 
    It was a blow and a half, the abuse was practically ignored and overlooked at first, then it became public knowledge and there was outcry. Still nothing that i thought would have been right was done, and instead the admin was pretty much told off. I couldn't keep playing normally after that. Something just felt off, everyone's enjoyment appeared fake. It hit me hard, I began drifting again, and this time, there was to be no bounce back. Alongside this, I was incorrectly roped into the abuse, by accusations of @You should kill yourself i and @Dex. They were of course false, but it only worsened the situation.
    After this, the staff chat was bickering and complaints of the abuse and what to do, still nothing came of it, and I could tell Psquaw was becoming tired of it. For around 2 months this carried on, until recently where upon the addition of an advanced sprays addon, new issues appeared, several Trial Admins were posting unsuitable and suggestive imagery all over maps, It wasn't right, but i couldn't do anything, and again, Psquaw refused to act. I think i gave up at this point, I tried to stop them, but they didn't, often challenging me when they sprayed near naked Ecchi imagery along spawns and in clear view. I couldn't help, so i told them to spray it away from clear view, where only them and trusted members could see. Thankfully they listened.
    And then, Psquaw resigned. The power vacuum re-appeared, and here I am, not able to take it a second time, turning away and saying "Fuck it, i'm out!"

    Featured Mentions:
    @Mr. Bones You were the first person I ever met on the server, Under the name of "Sour". It's thanks to you i stayed, that's right. MR. BONES IS THE REASON I STAYED ON THE SERVER IN THE FIRST PLACE, FUCK ALL YOU HATERS!
    You taught me everything I know; bhopping, strafing. Even bloody crouch jumping, and I never got the chance to say "Thank You". It's probably my biggest regret of the server, and i wish it turned out differently in the end. #NeverForgetThePupperArmy.
    @Fafy You're my favorite of the normal admins, and by far one of the few I enjoyed company with post admin-ship. I would say is the Ideal candidate for Senior, I wish you luck friend.
    @cancerous_cunt One of the first people i met on the server, and one i hope i won't forget. I still miss the old times, never forget the M O O N.
    @Jat You were the one that pushed me for admin in the first place, and for that I am truly grateful. You were awesome as senior and i hope you get back there some day.

  3. Hey, it's Harakoni, the resident tryhard bloke here to help with an Insurgency guide!
    Since the 48 hour "Free-For-Life" period, i've noticed many people asking for help and advice for playing Insurgency, and being somewhat competent, here's a 3 Step Guide for how to play Insurgency; and some handy tips for gameplay.

    Step 1 : Choosing a Class.
    Probably the most pivotal feature of Insurgency, is it's class system. Instead of giving a single class with every weapon option, Insurgency is styled towards a realistic squad basis, meaning that every role should support every role.
    The Roles that Exist currently are:
    Leader: 
    Probably the most multi-role class choice, offering a number of special equipments, including ordinary team based rifles, deadly Semi Automatic mid-rangers and specialist Carbines.
    This role excels as a jack of all trades command role, offering tactical and firepower support, allowing a wide variety of setups, my favorites shown below:
    My top loud-outs:
    Security - Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, MK18 Carbine with AP rounds (Sights can vary on leftover supply), and a Makarov sidearm (Specialized for short to mid range engagements)*
    Insurgents - Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, FN FAL Automatic Rifle with AP rounds and Cobra sight, Makarov sidearm. (Specialized for short to mid range engagements)*
    Commonly Used load-outs:
    Security - UMP-45, AP ammo and Holographic sight, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Makarov.
    Insurgents - AK-74 with AP rounds and fore-grip, (Close to Mid Range) AK-74 with 2x Scope and AP rounds (Long Range) Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Makarov sidearm.

    Rifleman/Fighter:
    The general role of the team and most common class, usually fighting at short to mid range due to lack of highly successful long range equipment.
    This class excels at medium range, but suffers at longer engagements due to lack of accurate fire. Keep smart, use cover, and use smoke to cover advances.
    My top loud-outs:
    Security - M4A1 with AP ammo, Heavy Armour, chest rig, Smoke grenades and Makarov Sidearm. *
    Insurgents - AK-74 With fore-grip and AP ammo, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Smoke grenades and Makarov Sidearm.
    Commonly Used load-outs:
    Security - M16A4 With AP Ammo and fore-grip, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Makarov.
    Insurgents - AKM with AP Ammo, fore grip and Cobra sights, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Makarov.

    Breacher/Militant:
    An assault based role dedicated to rapid firing SMG's and Fast Movers.
    This role excels at Close Range engagements, but can be specialized to fit a mid range role, often suitable as a front-line unit to neutralize an enemy counter attack or defense line, with rapid firing SMG's and hard Hitting Shotguns.
    My top loud-outs:
    Security - HK MP5 with AP ammo, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Fragmentation Grenade, Makarov.
    Insurgents - AKS-74U, With AP Ammo and fore-grip, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Makarov.
    Commonly Used load-outs:
    Security - MK18 AP ammo and heavy barrel, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Makarov.*
    Insurgents - AKM with AP, fore-grip and Cobra sights, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig, Makarov.

    Demolitions/Rocketeer:
    A crucial role for destroying Caches and clearing entrenched buildings, equipped with powerful explosives and Unguided Rocket Launchers.
    This role fills a niche in infantry combat similar to a Rifleman, but with minimalist equipment, as it is supplemented with either C4/IED, Or an Unguided Rocket Launcher.
    My top loud-outs:
    Security - M16A4 with AP, Light Armour, Chest Rig, Rocket Launcher, Makrarov.
    Insurgents -  AKM with AP and Cobra sight, No Armour, Chest Rig, Rocket Launcher Makarov.
    Commonly Used load-outs:
    Security - M16A4 with AP and Holographic Sight, Light Armour, Chest Rig, C4, Makarov.
    Insurgents - AKM with AP and Cobra sight, Light Armour, Chest Rig, 2 Frag Grenades, Makarov.

    Support/Machine Gunner:
    A role designed for suppression and "mass murder", either sit far behind and fire from a safe location, or blast your way through with excessive ammo counts.
    Ideal for people who can't decide whether to support or be a front-liner, this role offers two differing playstyles that make it a deadly choice.
    My top loud-outs:
    Security - M249 with AP, Makarov, Heavy Armour, Chest Rig.
    Insurgents -  FAL with AP, Bi-pod and Cobra sights, Makarov, Light Armour, Chest Carrier.*
    Commonly Used load-outs:
    Security - Galil SAR with AP, Drum Mag, Bi-pod, Chest Rig, Light Armour and Makarov.
    Insurgents - RPK with AP ammo and Cobra sights, Makarov, Heavy Armour, Chest Carrier.

    Designated Marksman/Machine Gunner:
    A role designed for mid to long range, offering rapid fire or single fire powerful rifles that make the phrase; one shot, one kill.
    Ideal for people not fond of the front-line, but who don't want to stay too far away, lay down powerful suppressive hails or pick of targets with a one shot policy in this demi-sniper class.
    My top loud-outs:
    Security - M14 With AP, fore-grip and Holographic sights, Makarov, Light Armour, Chest Rig.
    Insurgents -  FAL with AP, fore-grip and Cobra sight, Makarov, Light Armour, Chest Rig.*
    Commonly Used load-outs:
    Security - M14 With AP, Bipod and 2x Scope, Makarov, Light Armour, Chest Rig.
    Insurgents - FAL with AP, bi-pod and 2x Scope, Makarov, No Armour, Chest Rig.*

    Sniper:
    A role dedicated for a fan of long range, offering unparalleled sniper based weaponry.
    Suitable for a picky player, shooting targets of importance rather than ease, good for supporting advances and covering flanks from long range.
    My top loud-outs:
    Security - L1A1 with AP, C79 Scope and bi-pod, Makarov and Heavy Armour.
    Insurgents -  SKS with 2x, AP and Bi-pod, Light Armour, Chest Rig, Makarov.
    Commonly Used load-outs:
    Security - M40A1 with AP, Bi-pod, 2x and Suppressor, Light Armour, Chest rig, Makarov.
    Insurgents - Mosin with AP, 7x scope and Bi-pod, No Armour, Chest Carrier Makarov.

    *Uses custom model, see Step 3
    Step 2 : Battle Strategy.
    Your chosen/assigned role will most likely dictate your battle strategy, although there are some exceptions. Most battle roles are pretty self explanatory, Rifleman is the general purpose, Machine Gunner is for suppression etc, but this doesn't mean you have to follow this. Take the M249, It's one of the most accurate LMG's in the game, and can EASILY be converted into a 150 round Assault rifle with correct recoil control, it may be unorthodox, but when it come to interior last resort cleaning, it does the job.
    This section isn't exactly strategy. After all, telling you how to play makes you to uniform and predictable, Rush A, camp in the same spot, 3 enemy reinforcement waves in, the enemy will know EXACTLY where you are. It's a repetitive cycle that can be easily discarded with common sense, a sniper never holds position when spotted, A rifleman doesn't look down the eyes of an RPG. The game can easily be exploited with common sense, if your team is mown down at one location, try another to flank and kill enemy campers. Don't run into enemy territory full pelt, ALT walk (Will make your footsteps silent) for utmost stealth.
    A big component of the game , Strategy or not, is communication with your team. Without this critical tool, your team will run amok and be entirely unorganized, probably resulting in a swift beat-down. It's best to use the push to talk key (Default k) or a Discord call to properly commune situations.

    Step 3 : Workshop Mods?
    Believe it or not, but many workshop mods can be VERY helpful when it comes to insurgency, take the M4A1. It's Iron Sights are very narrow and visibility is poor. On the workshop, a weapon skin addon exists for the M4A1, converting it into the British SA80A2, with literally God Tier iron sights. They're so good, i choose them over Holographic and Dot sights (Addon link - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1414551031 )
    ?interpolation=lanczos-none&output-forma< This bad boy has the GOD tier of iron sights, and it only edits the view-model, not accuracy
    Another addon I personally use, (more for aesthetics) is the Glock 17 replacement for the Makarov, because in the arms of Security Forces, it suits the look so much better than a shoddy Russian Pistol (Also has night sights - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=417138934 )
    Yet another great weapon addon - replaces the MK18 in place of a G36C, also with really good situational iron sights ( https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=509641936 )
    ?interpolation=lanczos-none&output-formaThis beast looks much better than the Mk18 in my opinion, and also is animated really well.

    I forgot the G3A3 for the FN FAL as well: (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=501406858 )
    ?interpolation=lanczos-none&output-forma
    All in all i hope you take something from this guide, pretty sure the only useful bit is Step 1 & 3 though : )

  4. Okay, this is WAY fucking out of hand
    1) The current rule classifies ghosting as Spectating only, I believe, ALONGSIDE OTHERS, that it should be broadened to Hider

    2) The excuse of "Being a dick" is shoddy, it basically says "Yeah, i did it, look at me, i'm tough". Don't pull that when it's RULES you're loop-holing, seriously, I know which admin said this, and i am NOT pleased.

    3) I'm seeing admins support their right to loophole a pre-existing rule, I should not have to see this. Ever. Believe it or fucking not, but admins exist to enforce server rules AND make the server fun to play on, if you bend it so only YOU enjoy it, rather than the player base (Yeah, i'm bringing up speed rounds) that's not a good sign. The server is meant to be fun for all, not the few. If you don't like the server rules and regulations, why are you admin.
    This also stems off of the back-end of the NSFW spray shit, I have my eye on SEVERAL of the admins, something i should never have to.

    4) Believe it or not, but admins are the first large scale impression of the server, if you're all being toxic and loop-holing rules for your own betterment and not others, the players will copy you and how you act, thinking it's the accepted norm. Use your brains.

    As of this I would like no further comments, if you have an issue with the rules as of now. Contact me, another Senior Admin or the Division Leaders. If an Admin would like to know about anything I have said relating to keeping an eye out, DM me. 

  5. @mario_the_man btw, playing machine gunner isn't a run and gun glass, grab a bi-pod, a 2x scope, and sit at the back. You're a reserve unit for suppression, don't run in and die from recoil 

    Sniper is kinda the same, except you must expose flanks where the enemy NEVER goes, it's hard to achieve, but it's worthwhile (I'd recommend the M14 as Security Forces, and SKS for Insurgents, both with AP ammo)
    If forced into a fighter role, don't panic, grab an M4A1/MK18, or an AK-74/AKM, grab AP ammo, (sights actually don't matter that much, especially for the AK, the Iron Sights are REALLY good. I'd recommend a skin mod for the M4A1 though, i linked a skin in the Official Discord Insurgency chat, The SA85) and you're good to go.

  6. Yay, Psquaw's gone now stuff can get done!
    Jokes aside, i'll probably miss you mate, I actually enjoyed serving under you, even if i was a nagging hag who pestered you every other day. Just remember the good times, it'll be better than remembering me for "@PsquawOsaurus add maps k thx"
    (Also nice silent endorsement, I support your decision)
    Just don't disappear forever like mbs did, stick around for a while, who knows, maybe you'll have a change of heart.
