Tf2 server is currently offline and it looks like it's been offline most of the day. Hoping someone can see this and fix it. I'd post in the TF2 section but the ability to post new topics has been turned off for all sections but the Bans & Complaints area. Also, hoping there's a way to shorten how long the server is offline every time it needs an update? It seems like a very manual process right now so it's just down for hours if no one speaks up.

Please don't be concerned, this is a normal part of the process of becoming an admin here at Hyperion.

Well, he's back and we have more shitty admins now to boot.  I'm mostly playing other games now...

With all due respect to the admins, enzo has no idea what hes doing or his role in the game. He considers himself to be Map-Changer in Chief. Ive seen him log in, after not being in game for a period of time and change the map to metro, even though no one was complaining, in the middle of a round, with no input from the server. Enzo alone has killed the server more than any other single issue. I can appreciate that you are attempting to be friendly though. Its always a good way to go. See my recent post on this. 3x in three nights of play. Dead server due to map changing.

Good Evening,

I'm posting this here because it doesn't look like I can post in the TF2 sections.  I just happen to be in the forums today because Smile posted a poll and I was solicited for a response, and I feel like I would be remiss if I didn't leave an opinion on the current state of the admins for the payload server.  I criticized some of the things Enzo was doing when he was first given the admin powers, and I think it is totally natural that someone in a new position might be rough around the edges until they gain the necessary experience.  Instead of welcoming any such discussions, he just immediately muted me, then started talking shit about me.  It would have been a lot cooler if he would have engaged with me and at least talked shit to me when I had the opportunity to respond, but alas.   So, here are my criticisms in writing.  Enzo does a lot of crap that really turns the players off.  Some of the more disruptive actions are team scrambling seconds before the round starts leaving the red engies with no buildings, changing the map on the server multiple times in just a few minutes, forcing a map change to something only he wants to play when the whole server voted for a different map, not being open to map suggestions made by the community and assuming only he has good taste in maps, and not accepting any feedback about his actions as admin.  Out of all of these things the worst thing he does is change the server to a map he wants to play, then having a bunch of people leave because they don't want to play it, then changing the map one or two more times in the span of ten minutes, which really just makes sure that anyone who didn't leave the first time ends up leaving on the subsequent map changes.  He basically seems to think that if he just shakes the baby more, it will stop crying.  You're not going to just magically find a map that people want to play, and then have a bunch of people join right away.  There aren't 32 people sitting in the server browser waiting for the specific map they like.  Honestly, at this point, plenty of people are aware of Hyperion.  There are only a few decent community servers left with custom maps and 32 players.  You're not going to retain these players if you continue abusing your admin powers, and you're not going to fill the server by changing maps three times in ten minutes.

Also, waiting until after you've muted me to talk shit is super weak sauce.  If you're muting me to end the discussion, then end the discussion.  Don't bring up the fact that you have me muted over and over to rub it in.

Thank you,
Alain Reid

See new post. 3x this week. And that was only the 3 nights I was on. This really does need to be addressed. Its detrimental to the servers health and the players ability to just play the game.
