#27 computer won't boot in Hardware

That means the #2 + #3 link on your mobo ram slots have gone bad.

Slots #1 and #4 have a link but are still good while #2 + #3 the link has either malfunctioned or shorted out.

I'd contact your motherboard manufacturer if it's still under warranty.

KissmetestifyIt would be cool if more then invite players were allowed to play at LAN.
I agree, it'd be nice to see all of the division-finals take place at LAN, but you have to think about how much money they'd be competing for vs the cost of the trip there for each of them. If the prize pool is anything like ESEA, only the top 2 or 3 teams in Invite would really break even/gain anything.

Ya it wouldn't be about winning money it just be fun to play on LAN in a competitive setting.

Try a hard reset, unplug main power cord from the tower, hold power button down on tower for 15 seconds, plug power cord back in and try turning computer back on again.

And this is a no POST issue Slin.

#50 AG Supports CEVO in Expanded League in TF2 General Discussion
CaspianBerethCEVO's forfeiting policy is pretty bad from my understanding.
Not really. If you don't respond to a match proposal then you forfeit. 90% of the games this season have been forfeits though so it does look pretty bad.

Also not every team is going to switch to CEVO. So all this is going to do is split the community. GG.

If you're still going to play next season with ESEA after recent revelations and the way lpkane acts towards his consumer base you're an idiot plain and simple.

If AG wants to support CEVO I will do the same, we just need a general idea to back and this seems like our best option.

#152 REMOVE HORROR in Off Topic

http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/1r64e8/apology_official_twitch_response_to_controversy/

optimizeprimeWe at Twitch apologize for our role in what has been an unfortunate and ugly chapter for the streaming community. We'd like to repair the damage that has been done to the relationship between

Twitch and the Speedrunning community, in particular.

For context, here is a summary of the events as Twitch understands they occurred:

Twitch discovered that copyrighted images had been uploaded as emoticons to cyghfer’s chatroom on Twitch. Twitch policy clearly forbids unlicensed images from being used as subscription emoticons.
One of our staff members, Horror, notified cyghfer of this violation and removed the emoticons. Additionally, of the three emoticons which were removed, only two were actually unlicensed. One of them was actually licensed under Creative Commons and should not have been removed. We have notified cyghfer of our mistake in this matter.

Several Twitch users begin looking into our general policy for emoticons on Twitch, as they felt this policy was being enforced unevenly. One discovered the NightLight emoticon, a globally available emoticon, had been promoted to global status as a personal favor. It was clearly a licensed image however, as it had been commissioned explicitly as an emoticon for the Twitch site. The NightLight emoticon should not have been approved as a global emoticon and has been removed by request of the channel owner.

In reaction to this discovery about the NightLight emoticon and the previous emoticon removals, many users began to make jokes and other much less funny derogatory and/or offensive remarks in chat. Additionally, many of these users began harassing our staff and admins outside of Twitch chat using other social media channels.

Horror then banned many users from the Twitch site for this behavior. Harassment and/or defamation of any user on the site, including a staff member, is clearly against the Twitch terms of service. Some of the banned user’s remarks clearly cross this line, and those users were correctly banned. Other users made more innocuous remarks and should not have been banned. Horror was too close to this situation and should have recused himself in favor of less conflicted moderators. Being personally involved led to very poor decisions being made.

This whole situation began blowing up outside Twitch, including but not limited to Twitter and Reddit. One of our volunteer admins took it upon themselves to attempt to censor threads on Reddit. This was obviously a mistake, was not approved by Twitch, and the volunteer admin has since been removed. We at Twitch do not believe in censoring discussion, and more to the point know that it’s doomed to failure.

We take this incident very seriously and apologize for not better managing our staff, admins and policies regarding community moderation. There were several key mistakes made by Twitch in this process:

We failed to provide a valued partner with proper support when we needed to remove their unlicensed emoticons

We allowed a questionable emoticon to be made available in global chat

We failed to properly train our staff members to recuse themselves from personally involved situations, and as a result poor moderation decisions were made.

We did not have the structure or training in place in our moderation policies and training to deal with this episode properly.

What we're doing now and in the future:

Twitch users who were unfairly banned due to this incident are being systematically unbanned today.
The Twitch partners who were banned due to this incident have been provisionally unbanned pending investigation.

The NightLight emoticon has been removed.

Disciplinary action is being taken with regard to Twitch staff and members of the volunteer admin team who overstepped their authority.

Due to this incident, we are embarking on a full review of Twitch admin policies and community moderation procedures.

Horror has voluntarily stepped back from public facing moderation work at Twitch, as right now pretty much every moderation issue will be tainted by this episode.

In Our Defense:

Note that harassment and defamation (as opposed to criticism) of Twitch employees, partners, users, broadcasters, and humans in general is strictly prohibited by our terms of service and remain grounds for removal. This kind of behavior will not be tolerated. Users who committed acts of harassment or defamation will remain banned. Feel free to complain, protest, petition, etc. if you feel Twitch is making a mistake. Don’t harass or defame people.

Twitch staff did not ask any reddit moderators to remove or censor any threads.

“Twitch Administrators” are volunteer moderators who are not employed by Twitch. The activities depicted here and being falsely attributed to Twitch staff were undertaken by a volunteer admin who has since been removed from the program.

If you have further questions or comments, feel free to contact us directly via email at support@twitch.tv. Due to high expected volume, please be patient with us for responses in general on this topic.

Justice is served.

#157 The ESEA abuse thread in TF2 General Discussion
clckwrkI'm not defending ESEA, I'm defending the idea of a league's competitiveness. There are reasons why ESEA is still played. I don't agree with ESEA being the receiver of the TF2 community's money and time, but there are features they have that lend to a higher level of play.

You probably didn't get what I was saying, because I absolutely do not want ESEA to remain the most played league. Unfortunately it isn't as easy as saying "Anything is possible." It will take a lot of work and it will probably not show the same level of competitiveness for the first year or so, unless the league has LANs from the get-go.

If there are dedicated people who are confident enough to create their own league or possibly endorse CEVO to the point where the game could have LANs, I would love to see that. However there hasn't been a plan in progress and we're speaking hypothetically.

Alright ya your post just came off as defending certain aspects of ESEA while I know you were playing devil's advocate in a way, I still think with good players there will be good competition.

Of course it's all hypothetical but everything starts with good ideas.

I am really glad some invite players like yourself and others took a stance on ESEA this season now especially after recent revelations and maybe others will join you as well.

#143 The ESEA abuse thread in TF2 General Discussion
clckwrkAlleal2sy_morphiendAllealNone of you would be playing in ESEA if it didn't have prize pots and a LAN.
I have never played a season of ESEA with any sort of monetary goal in mind. You're completely wrong if you think that most people play ESEA for a check and not so that they can prove that they are the best in their division.

But I don't think that.

That would be why I wrote this:
AllealSurprise guys, money has a greater impact on the game than what a handful of players in each div get in their mail each month. Money means commitment and competition, and that's what we play for.
Money is the reason everyone chooses to play ESEA over UGC. Pretending otherwise is stupid.

It's way more than just this. Unless you have experience, you absolutely cannot say the reasons why people play ESEA. The best people hope for when attending LAN is to break even. The more correct answer is there's a certain standard associated with ESEA that causes teams to prove themselves against each other. It is seen as the highest standard of competition, and is played in the same manner. Even if there were a different jumpstart league that iT and mix both played, a mix^ win in the "TeamFortressTV Tournament" carries far less clout and is taken much less seriously.

Money is certainly a motivating factor, but at the end of the day is overlooked for competition. The reason Platinum plays the game season after season is not to earn extra money from TF2 that he doesn't already earn from his regular job (like, what?). It's to win. Everything has always been to win.

Alright so you're defending ESEA essentially after all the shit they've put you through and after your ex-team has been bashing them since this start of the season ?

Doesn't that seem slightly hypocritical to you ?

We have the players, we have the community, we have the means and the will, fuck ESEA.

If players want a LAN we can organize a community driven one, if players want a prize-pool we can buy in and have a payment system setup.

Anything is possible, we have smart dedicated community-driven people who play this game, if you don't think we can rise above the cesspool that is ESEA and still have good competition at a top level you're wrong.

Tbh this is actually a very good guide to soldier if you are just starting tf2. If you are really interested in making guides and such kellth, you'd be smart to consider the many things this video series does well.

This is better from someone who had ludicrous aim while he still played.
