LuckyB33f 1287 Report post Posted January 10, 2017 Hi Lads, We've had some bans issued by the staff team recently that we don't wish to issue but it was a must. So I thought I would write something for all of the community, about the community and something for us all to dwell on. Your Community is a community built by you the Players / Staff and Developers. This is a place where you can join after having a big day at school or work or a place you can escape the world we live in. It is a place where you can become someone else. On this Community, I am LuckyB33f, Founder of Straya Gaming. But in real life I am Jason, The Handyman/Storeman/whateverelsemytitleis. This is the same as my Managers, Admins and Mods. We are here to become something else and not who we always are. Our private life is to stay private. As that isn't who we are on here. If you want to be a troll then that is fine but you'll find yourself out of the community faster and less enjoyable. We as a community must continue to grow as we grow more servers, We have plenty of options for the future, We will need more people able to help make new game servers who are dedicated. You all as a community will look back at this one day and say I helped build this community when it was only small. Right now we are the largest Arma3 community in Australia. We started as 5 players. Look at us now. I truly can say this has been one of the best experiences i have had in my life so far (the army was overrated). And we are just getting started lads.

Travesty 265 Report post Posted January 10, 2017 I've not been in this community for long, only a few months, so I thought I'd offer my thoughts as a fresh perspective. Also, since LuckyB33f did it, I'm a Mid-30's IT Manager called Travis so any military game is very far removed from my real life! StrayaGaming is in my opinion one of the most developed and welcoming Australian gaming communities I've been part of, even with the diverse range of ages in the community. While some may argue this point, in my experience the general level of maturity in SG players is higher than many other communities I've been in before. I see the staff in StrayaGaming giving more of a damn about the servers and community than I've seen in other communities I have been part of. I've regularly seen (I'm a semi-regular I&A Pilot/Medic/AT, sometimes Wasteland cannon fodder, and occasional Rust player) Mods and Admins educate and counsel new players on the rules in a way that is often quite polite and respectful. I've also seen the Mods and Admins be quite patient with players ignoring rules then enforcing the rules when needed. It's not all perfect obviously, as someone learning to play Rust I was saddened to see the server activity drop off rapidly at the end of the year. But overall this is a great community. But don't take my word for it, and don't take what you have for granted. Contribute, engage and support StrayaGaming. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gotenks 497 Report post Posted January 10, 2017 I'm coming up on 1 year next week and I've thoroughly enjoyed this community and it's the best community I've been apart of. In the past year I've seen people leave and people join back and forth and I've seen this community double in size in just 1 year. I hope I can be here to see it grow bigger and better and want to be apart of it. #SG4lyfe 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unit_3397 712 Report post Posted January 10, 2017 2 hours ago, Travesty said: I'm a Wasteland cannon fodder player +1, Unit approves Being a member of strayagaming has opened many opportunities for me, its given me a chance to develop myself and my skill sets, take on a active staff position and be apart of a gathering of unique individuals; that are from different backgrounds and have different stories to tell. It is my hope that our community will continue to grow and thrive, and my dream that we become a recognised portal for all people around Australia to gather and commune, be it server related, or for every day chat. What an easier way to find and make friends than a community thats members share the same interests as you. Peace out! Great community, Great staff :3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
