    So here's a few things I have planned, tell us what you think and what you want to see Harpoon do:
    • Open up 3 More TF2 servers, no idea what modes they will be
    • Create a Landing Page for HG that will have quick links to a lot of important places
    • Have a Quick Look page where you can see average ages of staff, where they come from and see stats about HG
    • Expand a large boxing area for the all-trade map
    • Hire more TF2 Staff
    • Hire more Gmod Staff
    • Convert Reports, Appeals to Form based entries
    • Add in a reporting section for issues with Staff

    I would love to see a casual MvM server.

    Could we have a server where you play as the robots too? I remember being on one like that and it was so awesome. DEFLECTOR HOOVY ARMY UNITE!

    I'm looking into MvM modes where it's 10 humans vs the bots or 7 humans vs 3 humans + bots.

    I heard that the MvM servers where you can play as the Robots are either really laggy or vey buggy. This was quite a few months ago so it might have been fixed. But yeah, an MvM server sounds awesome.

    We may just start with a 10 v robots server and look into the possibility to play as a robot later.

    I like the idea of a 9 v bots MvM server... I think it would also be interesting if there was a Prop Hunt server as that is a rather popular game mode on Gmod.

    Possible idea of a vanilla server would be good, this would be good for expanding harpoon as a whole, getting people from all of the tf2 spectrum in.

    Eh, I thought of that. But not sure how it would go over.

    Only issue is there are so many vanilla servers.

    Then possibly make payload maps...CP maps...Things like that could narrow it down.

    Eh, there are also many of those servers. It's always more fun to play Dodge Ball, Saxton Hale, Death Run, MvM, etc. At least that's what I think.

    Dodge ball!

    Don't do jailbreak. All jailbreak servers should be thrown into a pit of death, fire, and explosives.

    You say that as if we print maps for a living.

    There are, but there are a lot of people that play tf2.

    I did not know you had to acquire vanilla maps.

    Perhaps if we got a vanilla server we could put custom public use maps on the rotation also to keep game play interesting for players instead of the usual stock maps. I've seen servers using maps like pl_badwater_snow or something like that and many others.
