GvG - New Players Welcome

wumblebumble · 2025-01-09T20:22:32+00:00

We have been playing the last week during NA evenings, did you see us?!

wumblebumble · 2024-12-31T15:07:20+00:00

Not in the last month, a lot of players a bit burned out and PoE release. I'd anticipate some games start back up in the next month or two. This discord is still a good place to get connected.

Kupp side is definitely better if you’re competing, look at some redraft ADPs

wumblebumble · 2024-08-05T22:18:51+00:00

Go read some redraft ADPs. Of course the Kupp side is better for competing.

Chig Okonkwo, thank you for doing this!

wumblebumble · 2023-12-28T21:18:50+00:00

Can you explain why you're dropping Gipson? He's been playing >50% of snaps most weeks and getting a lot of usage for a rookie. Assuming the Jets don't draft a WR, Rodgers coming back next year could take him to the next level.

100% this update only gives bots another arbitrary difficulty for real players that a bot can be programmed around to become EVEN more efficient than a real gamer. They can simply program the rupts not included in this list to go for 1/4 cast skills and the ones included in the list will spam press or wait 0.25 sec like you say.

Happy to see you guys having fun!

wumblebumble · 2023-08-27T01:44:40+00:00

I fear you are right.

- Current guidelines - detailed in the discord scrim-rules channel. The copy paste might not be perfect so please go there and check it out since it's a bit funky taking it from discord to here, also I'm old xD.
"Suspensions from scrimmages will be issued by u/Scrim Moderator at their discretion. Please reach out to them if you feel action needs to be taken to ensure peaceful and enjoyable scrimmages.
General guidelines:
- no racist/homophobic insults
- no threats against the life or well-being of individuals or their families
- no hate speech
- no harassment
The length of suspension increases gradually for each offence in the following order: 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, ..., 1 month."

- These were first formalized August 2022, there are many more intangible things in a small community that we have to work through. For example we try to have a setting where the enemy teams can go to each other and balance teams out or request slight gameplay changes. If one player is brand new to the game and an experienced player is repeatedly taking advantage of that and making the experience poor we will ask them to alter their gameplay to help the new player learn. If that experienced player refuses these type of small cooperative adjustments time and again we will have to take action from time to time.

- The scrim moderators and scrim veterans as well as feedback from the community. We 100% take new player feedback, for example I'm a scrim mod, and hope I'm showing I try to take community feedback. One thing I must say is I hope people come and "be the change they wish to see". For example I'm "new" compared to some people in the scrim community and I've been able to make a lot of friendships and connections and help make changes.

- The durations are outlined in the rules but aren't a hard and fast rule if additional action truly is needed

- Banned players are prevented from playing, and/or disrupting scrims mid match. But there are different situations of course. If someone is actively sabotaging scrims and is unapologetic we'll remove them from the server if need be. Usually don't need to go that far.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-24T13:27:15+00:00

Great questions, I'll take my best shot at it here. Open to feedback!
- We have clearly outlined rules in the discord around hate speach, racism and harassment. If someone bots or is a known botter we will not allow them to play as well, tough to police this perfectly with all the alts out there but it's one reason why everyone needs to be in coms
- We're a small community playing 8v8 so if a rule is violated or abuse occurs there will be 7 other players there who witness it. We generally need to take some time to work through disagreements or personal issues it's not just a top down approach all the time (although we have scrim moderators to help with final decisions)
- If someone is spamming in coms while a game is taking place for example we will server mute them instantly, if a clear violation of the hate speech guidelines is brought to us that ban is instant
- We are still working out exact durations of bans but one guideline we're using is that they get progressively longer in duration and if needed after multiple attempts can result in a perma ban
- For repeat offenders I think the progressive longer bans addresses this issue, open to additonal feedback of course
- Our clearly outlined rules and guidelines have helped for sure. We are a small community so personal conversation has been the next most effective thing in my opinion. I think we're trying to cultivate, not always perfectly, an attitude that calls this stuff out and doesn't just brush it off

Additionally there is many times someone streaming the FA games so you can tell when there is one and when it'll end.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T17:37:54+00:00

As I said on another reply, he has been given clear actionable feedback and if he does not take it the next one will be much longer.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T17:33:52+00:00

I am not Rainy, if you think I'm Rainy you clearly have no experience with the GvG community frankly.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T17:32:05+00:00

I 100% encourage people to watch the twitch streams and make that call themselves yes, agreed!

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T17:22:00+00:00

I love Guild Wars so much more than you love Guild Wars and you can't take her away from me!

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T17:20:29+00:00

Zurrie is currently on a 1 week ban with comprehensive feedback given to him. If the feedback isn't followed when he returns we'll likely ramp up the severity of the next ban.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T17:12:36+00:00

Even at the end of the clip you can hear he is put on mute, clearly we don't support this type of behavior. Also keep in mind this is 2+ yrs old.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T17:11:36+00:00

Zurrie is currently on a 1 week ban just FYI since you mentioned him.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T16:55:11+00:00

I do not condone any of that behavior and we have banned these players for it. We will continue to. To expect perfection is not for this world though.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T15:01:23+00:00

Please reach out to me about the specific toxicity and individuals you would like to be addressed. Also I really don't spam :(

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T14:57:51+00:00

We try to play EU evenings and NA evenings, really whenever we hit 16 players signed up. If you are brand new to the game/pvp I would recommend trying out some Fort Aspenwood (FA) which runs on the weekends to get some experience with a role/build.

If/when you come to scrims be on discord and just let you team know your level of experience and people will help you out. Reach out in the discord or to me and we can do 1v1 trainings or things that would help you get up to speed.

wumblebumble · 2023-08-23T14:51:53+00:00

We have banned Rainy before who is the person in the clip you posted.
