This is iamjack, and i am a oversea player played in this server almost everyday in past 8 months. so it have been 3 weeks since the server Ping Limited dropped to 400 , is the ping limitation change trial over ? is it going to be permanent? as a oversea player, i am connecting to Strayagaming server from somewhere non - Aus /Nz location. i am already on 1Gbp Optical fiber from Hong Kong, the best oversea connection ISP . i doubt if there is anything else i can do. but coz of the physical property of light and network routing i am getting around 200-250 ping constantly connected from HK. I know, it is still within the 400 server limit, but sometime , sudden lag spike is inevitable, and 1 packet loss , 1 bad spike is all it take to bring the ping up above 400 for may be 1 second, and 1 bad ping is all it take for the filter to get us kicked from server. it could be in the middle of flying a helicopter....could be in the middle of drug run... could be in the middle of Bank.... anyway it is getting a but annoying that oversea player have to been kicked once every 1 - 2 hours. is it possible for the ping filter to kick people with bad ping after like 3 ping check, ping with 3 min interval to establish the player ping condition before auto kicking? otherwise, more and more player from oversea just going to leave the server becoz of this. may be it is just me and myself, all just my 2cent, but if any of you are suffering the same problem, i urge you to come out ans speak it out.

< Attention all StrayaGaming Community Members and Staff > THE OBJECTIVE: For years a battle has been fought by the 3 pillars of StrayaGaming; Invade & Annex, Altis life and Wasteland. As claims were made and egos inflated a battle was on the horizon. Players from each server insist that their players are the most skilled in the entire community, and if given the chance, they would decimate the competition. It's time for players to finally put their money where their mouth is. Enter OPERATION VELVET THUNDER! 12 players from each StrayaGaming server (Invade & Annex, Altis Life & Wasteland) will go head-to-head in a team deathmatch with the goal of either eliminating all opposing players, or capturing the formidable Altis Ghost Hotel. Fight to win, or forever hold your peace. In other words, winning team takes bragging rights and the losing teams have the right to remain silent. SQUAD COMPOSITION: Each squad has been provided with a total of 30 respawn tickets, enough for 12 initial spawns, 12 respawns and a bonus 6 respawns. Squad commanders from each server have been appointed from the staff team and are as follows: Invade & Annex Commanders: @webbie @Noskire Wasteland Commanders: @Nunny @Neanp Altis Life Commanders: @bodyboarder2528 @Havoxa Players interested in participating should either reply to this thread, or contact their server's designated commanders ASAP. FURTHER INFORMATION: There are several prizes available for this mission: Most Player Kills: $20 Steam Voucher Most Strategic Player: $20 Steam Voucher (To be chosen by spectating Zeus) Winning Team: Event Winner TeamSpeak Badge WHEN AND WHERE: The Operation will be held on a StrayaGaming Pop-Up server on Sunday the 17th of February at 7PM (AEDT). Those wishing to participate should be ready in TeamSpeak by 6:30PM (AEDT). Please ensure that you have communicated with your server's commanders your interest in participating in a timely manner. The time and date may need to change due to staff and player availability. Your server commanders will inform you of any changes in the event's time.

This ping decrease was a bad move. It was made due to sheer resentment for a certain group of players who no longer play the server. My recommendation is to up the ping limit so that players like Jack and Maverick (who are both great guys and we wouldn't want them to leave) can stay and have a good time with no worries about kicks due to connection. ?

A lot of people have put things in suggestions and nothings come out of it. Read through https://strayagaming.com/forum/108-suggestions/ and see how many suggestions get ignored without any response from management.

Can everyone who is interested in joining the AL team please message myself and Havoxa on here or the discord

So as we all know the server is at it's lowest peek at this present time due to multiple reasons not only directing it to server-side issues, But as well IRL issues. This will be my Final post for giving out Suggestions for the Staff Team, If this post cannot get through someone's head on making a change than honestly i have no clue what will before i start you can take this as ''Connors Salty Again'' or I'm just a ''Toxic Retard'' this isn't a roast this is just the truth so don't take it to heart but take this post seriously. My first point will be Managers and Above. Your communication skill with the community isn't so good in fact its appalling every server up-date that comes out are thing's that the community had no say in, Its just what yous wanted to add because you thought it was right multiple people like @FarmerGeorge98 @Big Kev @Chadd @bouda118 @AceWinchester @MrMiller @JoshieYeezy @Jay, Myself and alot and im sure you know who you are. Now you say yous are talking about upcoming changes for Altis Life in the future, I dont see anyone even trying to communicate with the community only the people within the staff team. 1. Listen to people's post and at time you have which has actually really helped but at other times you just ignore it. 2. Trial suggestions for 1 - 2 weeks show that yous are willing to go to any extent to provide content for the server even if they are completely useless show us that yous are listening and prove us completely wrong. 3. Update the server alot more instead of every month yous have more than enough people in roles to fulfil the requests that get thrown at yous everyday. 4. Post Updates/Upcoming updates, Idea's on what yous could do to improve the current state of the server ''Communicate'' with us dont sit there whilst the server dies and realise at the last minute what yous need to do. 5. Have more community meetings discuss what you wanna see out of us and we can say what we expect out of yous. I've spoken to all of the current Staff Team Member's even if we aren't all on good terms i know your expectations for the server yet no one pitches idea's. Suggestions from previous community members/staff. Now these are multiple suggestions from multiple different community members as well as staff members and there are alot more to come, Now i have seen some responses and suggestions from alot of people including Managers + but has it actually gone any further than just a reply on the forums.... I'm unsure i cannot make that call but from my perspective I've seen nothing. We all are open to give suggestions and providing things for Staff that at times they can't and that goes the same way to us the community. Now you can choose to ignore this post or hide it if you think it is not needed or another way to rip at each others throats but all im saying is someone had to stand up and say something so like i said at the start this isn't to start a fight this is only to get your attention to sit down and be like maybe he is right maybe he is wrong idk, At this point im not the one to be criticising the staff but at this point over the past months/years i have given up on providing what i think the server needs. Please post down below if you think im right or wrong or just a suggestions, Thank-you. @Red @James32

Rather just surrender tbh ??

you guys are all talking shit but when u compare this "roleplay" server to darksides combat roleplay server, the differences are very clear... this includes population and fun.

+1, armed blackfoots in city limits

understandable, like i said, i dont have a say. Wish i did... but! The only thing we can do is put in suggestions, i was reading through these suggestions, ohhh damn some were good

Great event idea man, Huge +1 to you. You got my vote for Community Manager hehe ?

I don't think all rebel gear should be allowed in city limits, maybe civs can only be allowed up to 5.56 or 6.5, and a specific armor level

just want better hex's

I mean, this could all be avoided if Wastelund and Altis Leaf just surrendered.

I've recently been playing on Strayagaming Altis Life again. A lot of what I might say could be biased or misinformed due to my lack of game time in recent months or due to my affiliation with rebel gangs. These suggestions have taken inspirations from other servers so I'm not claiming credit for the entire suggestion. I do understand that these suggestions might be unrealistic to development due to a lack of a dedicated developer but this is just something to think about over time, maybe one or two suggestions might be implemented. There's a lack of rebel gangs on the server with AoW being the dominant gang and Sequel being close behind. There's a bunch of smaller gangs with a few people together but apart from that there's not much going on. There needs to be some sort of incentive for those little gangs to group up and form a bigger gang because right now the combat from my perspective is between cops, Sequel, or a few random rebels. Instead of having this forced gang war where you had to arrange a fight, why not have an application to apply for a gang base and give it out to every active gang with benefits tweaked and a proper terms and condition of maintaining the gang base. The gang menu should also be changed to compliment the gang base changes. These suggestion will benefit current and new gangs in the server as well as provide some more activities for police. Gang Menu Changes The current gang menu is outdated and is need of updating. A hierarchy system would be useful in managing certain aspects of the gang while in game. Would also be great if things like gang bases could be done without the need of whitelisting by a staff member and shift it towards being a permanent member of the gang. Gang Founder: Invite/Promote/Kick members Full access to Gang Base Gang Leader: Invite/Kick Members Full Access to Gang Base Gang Member: Temporarily invite a member to the gang, will expire upon aborting to lobby. Limited access to Gang Base Temporary Members: No access to gang base Design of the Gang Base: I'm not great with map editing or have knowledge on the limitations of the server's mission file but I'll leave the guidelines to the more qualified people. The gang bases should be designed by a member of the gang unless a member of the staff team is willing to design a gang base for them. Maybe even have a default gang base to work from if a design can't be made. Benefits of the Gang Base: The ability to spawn at the location once an hour (to prevent soft logging and spawning there for certain benefits listed below) Rebel, Cartel, or Contractor market, clothing, weapon, and vehicle shop. Gang Shed/Warehouse that holds a large amount of virtual and physical items. Gang Vault (essentially gang funds). Gang Shed: Very high amount of storage compared to houses. Allowing gangs to store gear and items to share among the whole gang. The shed has to unlocked by a Gang Leader/Founder either via an updated gang menu or windows key at the shed. Can be raided by the police if they have a valid warrant on at least 3 members or the gang founder. Gang Vault: Gang members can store money in the vault to share around with other members. Capture zones can periodically add money into the vault. Maybe some sort of taxation system where a small percentage of money gets added to the vault 50% of money from Westpac could get added to the vault. The vault can be raided by the police once a day or once every three hours for different gangs. Cooldown would be included with Westpac/Fed/AGL to prevent multiple major crimes happening at once. Every cop online would get money if successful (something like 250-500k per person). Terms and Conditions: Gang Activity: 15 Registered Gang Members Activity Quota (something like 50 hours combined from all gang members in a week) Actively contributing in the forums either in discussions, videos, or suggestions. Active in Teamspeak (Most gangs use their own discord/teamspeak, encouraging gangs to use their official gang channels could be a good thing) Gang Behaviour: No Toxicity in any of StrayaGaming's services. Following the rules, avoid getting watchlisted/banned. Avoid Excessive Shit Talking of other Gangs or towards the Police Force. (Excessive because one line shit talks could be interpreted as friendly banter) Three strike system. Gang leadership will be held accountable for the actions of their members. If a member is constantly breaking the rules or being toxic without being punished by leadership, their gang base is at risk. For the gang base to be maintained, the leaders would have to remove any excessive rule breakers/toxic players to be safe. Final Statement: The server is a combat server. There's multiple opportunities for rebel vs rebel combat but when there's a lack of rebel gangs, there's not much to do other than to pester the Police with Westpac or other major crimes. This is the only Altis Life server in the region that is more skill based than weapon/vehicle based which is why some people enjoy it more than the other server. My opinion is that the server direction should be leaning towards improving rebel vs rebel first, then slowly overtime overpower the cops so it's actually a challenge to take Westpac or Fed. Rebels don't need to win all the Westpacs and Fed if they have a decent combat experience to rely on elsewhere like rebel vs rebel. The reward from Westpac isn't worth much, and if the server reaches a point where the cop force is dominating, the reward should be significantly increased.

Feeling some Deja vu right about now. If the ping limit was indeed added all it achieved was pushing people away. Most EU players sit well below 300 ping so it did/does nothing to them. Asian countries and people with a bad link is all it countered. :FeelsJackMan:

You know what's the similarity of you and those AI's? Both can shoot; however, AI's shoots better than you

That poor poll, you killed him. :[
