Reminder that there is a difference from Free Speech and Consequence Free Speech.

Free speech means the government cant do anything about your saying slurs.

That does not mean that there are not political, social, or cultural repercussions to your actions.

good engineer.

@Bliztank I just disabled it for now. Its something we can figure out later.

One of the goals of Engineer.tf is to be able to provide adequate resources for aspiring engineer mains to improve. To assist in that function we have created a page on the website that allows you to view, search for, and download STV demos from official Invite RGL Highlander matches. This is a valuable resource that allows mentees to watch and learn how the best play at the highest level of Highlander. Because these are STV demos, anyone can benefit from this resource, even if you don’t play engineer.

you can view our STV Archive on our website at https://engineer.tf/demos.php

hey guys. figured it would be neat to have a poll to see what the most liked HL map is, and the least liked. This is a ranked choice poll, so you should rank all the maps in order from your favorite to your least favorite. I’ll publish the full poll results with round breakdown in a few days.

@Achoo we will def take a look at that and look into changing it. The skins themselves are preset options that come with the forum software that we haven’t fully tested so I appreciate the feedback.

As far as the notifications, I will take a look into.

@starcatfish how were you able to make this topic into a Q&A topic?

Small update with some changes/fixes:

• “Fixed” pfp bug, also removed the rep requirement to change your pfp.
• Removed the rep requirement to add/change your profile cover photo. This is the image that appears on your user profile and on your hover card.

@Mothership Would you mind posting the script? This is fairly helpful

you need to use a weapon switch script with this. Do you have one already? if not I need to make a condensed version to work with it.

@Teapot said in Forums Feedback & Updates:

The racism post from last week was a pretty good stress test of the forum format. It performed poorly in my opinion. Posts load as you scroll to the top or bottom, so you never leave the page. It also seems the number of posts on the page at any one time is capped – as you scroll more in, the posts in the other direction fall off. This makes finding earlier posts difficult, since it makes the “find” browser function worthless. Adding to that, I found that scrolling up would roll in more than one set of posts, so I would end up navigating well past where I wanted. (This was on Edge browser)

Maybe for that thread it was a benefit to the forums, since it was entirely drama/flame. But more productive threads would benefit from a better system. I suggest a “return to tradition,” and give the threads a static partition, which you navigate by clicking a page link.

One of the issues with the current forum software is that changing the default settings in regards to user settings like this wont update it for everyone. It will only affect the default settings for future users. Current users will maintain the settings they currently have and I am unable to do anything as I don’t have any ability to change them.

It would be a good idea for us to poll this along with some other things to determine the overall community thought on the forum settings which would be a good way to evaluate and make decisions like this which directly affect future users.

@Iso said in Addressing Racism/Anti-LGBTQ Speech on Off-Platform Media:

@Mothership “against that”, meaning against the league putting new rules in place. Not “against slurs” in general.

my original statement was toward the “satisfying the minority” part of the argument.

A majority of the community is against the usage of slurs, however a majority of the community is also against the policing of private areas.

To be completely honest, I am not sure what we debating here anymore as I dont think anyone agrees that we should be policing private places. Its beyond RGL’s scope and resources. Its just unfeasible.

@Papaya said in Addressing Racism/Anti-LGBTQ Speech on Off-Platform Media:

@HA-Johnny This is ABSOLUTELY a violation of privacy because RGL has 0 right to police what happens outside their platform. Players already have solutions to deal with racism off platform, and it is not RGL’s place to police that.

RGL can literally do whatever they want. They do do whatever they want within their platform due to the actions of users outside their platform. Its 100% within our right.

@Iso said in Addressing Racism/Anti-LGBTQ Speech on Off-Platform Media:

@Mothership A majority are against having slurs in official scrims and matches. I’m confident that if the league was polled about whether RGL should police off-platform speech, the majority vote would turn against that.

that is correct.

@Kastaling A majority of the people in this league is against the ability to say slurs. This is proven in previous league surveys.

@Papaya It is not. When you use these forums or any RGL platform you have no rights whatsoever to use them.

RGL =/= Any form of government.

If we actually wanted to, we could make it against the rules to watch anime and ban everyone for it. Its within our scope.

On that note:

Lets all return to the original topic and stop going off-topic.

@Papaya Incorrect. The Government is literally the US Government. RGL as a private entitiy can determine on their own how they police their own platform as long as those actions are not based on sex, religion, etc that are protected from the constitution. Free speech does not apply to RGL nor will any political entity be able to do anything about it.

Reminder that there is a difference from Free Speech and Consequence Free Speech.

Free speech means the government cant do anything about your saying slurs.

That does not mean that there are not political, social, or cultural repercussions to your actions.
