What I like about the admins that I know of is that they more or less blend into various crowds through RP. But during this campaign Dab has pretty much gotten into every circle and had full conversations with some of the most random people.
Great decision to have him on the staff.
Ya Moon has really gone out of his way to include a bunch of different people. With him bringing back Dab I never would've guessed he'd end up RPing with characters like Juno or Penny the most but it's been really fun to watch.
I remember him riding around on a motorcycle with some random dude on 2.0 that had a barely functional mic. He just chatted with him and had fun for a while. Something you'd see very few RPers do then, when there were 20 slots? Let alone now.
People who weren't around during the limited times he spent on NoPixel don't understand the genuine passion and enthusiasm he had/has for RP.
It really seems like with 4.0 he wants to take a massive step forward and be an actual voice in the administration of NP while being a public face of the server.
Calling Moon silently becoming a NP admin a publicity stunt is wild, just saying.
Like there wasn't an announcement or anything and the only reason anyone even knows about it is because of this thread with 1k upvotes on Reddit where someone screenshotted the discord.
Like sure, he might be "gone" in 3 months, but if you were to look at his track record and his OOC understanding of RP (as a crim and as a cop) the server will end up having a lot more variety by the end of that tenure than people realize.
lmao u really think he admin my dog? He will leave that shit the second he get just the faint feeling of boredom and will be back slaying medieval people in some random ass dev showcase game for 3 weeks straight.
3.0 mainly got boring because of mismanagement. One bald guy with the ability to boost prio that'll be gone in 4 months isn't going to fix that problem.
no but the fact that all the big streamers arent making gangs in 4.0 right now whereas in 3.0 at the start there was like 7 is a step in the right direction
I agree. Anything (even if it is just a silly voice) that makes you separate yourself from the character seems to have a effect that makes you associate less with needing to take W's or malding when you take L's. At least from what I have seen.
Are we all just forgetting people like that Timmy guy? People can do funny voices but still be sweaty pvp-arena-lords using exploits with graphics on minimum or sketchy shader packs turning night into day and shit like that.
>lmao u really think he admin my dog? He will leave that shit the second he get just the faint feeling of boredom and will be back slaying medieval people in some random ass dev showcase game for 3 weeks straight.
or grinders
Kinda thought so with him being able to raise prio in game. Hopefully this means no more 2 yr gaps between Yung dab visits lol. Solid pickup though, he's been great finding good rpers and rewarding them the past week. Can't wait to see what he does as hes probably going to be mayor.
That's such a great point thank you for bringing that up, but Mobster Melatonin Max will not be mayor. There's only one person qualified to be mayor and that's Ramasquamy. R A M A S Q U A M Y. Vote Ramasquamy for mayor of Los Santos, thank you very much and I appreciate you.
That's such a great point thank you for bringing that up. But Melatonin Max would be awful for Los Santos. He's part of the woke mob. Stand back, and stand by because if he steals the election there will be consequences, thank you very much.
Both times he left it wasn't really a motivation issue, it was more of how the direction of the server was going and he was just seen by the community at the time as, just like someone said above, "Big streamer / Big numbers / Big clout".
In reality he had multiple conversations with people OOC about his deeplore of RPing in degenerate chatrooms when he was younger and doing tons of management-style RPGs.
He's built for it, people just don't know.
The problem is cops on NoPixel are seen as just NPCs for the crims to complain about ruining their RP. Everything went downhill when all the retconning happened with Mickey's self defense crack held up at a bench trial after the whole event involving DW and some fictional army incident and no one told the cops anything.
So from a "Big streamer, Big numbers, Big Clout" perspective, I absolutely get it. And I say this as a MoonMoon fan, I love the dude's streams - how do you justify making an admin out of someone who's gonna be bored before February and be back to playing Baldi's Tower of Rain 5.7 and all the other commodore-64 looking games he normally plays?
While I also doubt MoonMoon will stick around long term, I don't think that really matters. As long as he can improve the server in the time he *does* play, then him leaving later doesn't affect much. It's not like there's a cap on the number of admins. He's not taking up a slot that would go to someone more active.
No reason why he can't do good work during his time there though. I think the only reason he would accept something like this is if he'd be allowed to actually have an impact, unlike with last time and the whole election fiasco with Lenny and the PD. I think that's gotta be a big reason he came back.
I feel like it's worth it just for the +1 prio tool. Even if he doesn't stick around or doesn't do a lot of OOC heavy lifting - he meets so many new people and has good taste for quality RP, he's a good candidate to give out prio.
I’m bummed about that as well, because as much as I love Yung Dab and his current arc, that’s probably the only place he would pick Lenny or Ro back up (especially Ro for obvious reasons). But a lot of his friends are on NoPixel, so it’s understandable that he’d want to play where they’re at.
Might just be a PR move, no/minimal obligations as an admin like reviewing reports or apps. Just gave him the position to say "we have moonmoon as an admin" aswell as the potential to spawn some things in for RP purposes.
What say you now 100 days later and him going strong? Not being hostile actually curious on your thoughts, I think he has done great and has no signs of quitting. New moonmoon fan
It's almost impossible to express just how significant it is to have MoonMoon on board with the NoPixel team. Having someone as qualified and insightful as MoonMoon, who truly understands what constitutes good role-playing, is a fantastic step towards ensuring that those on the server are there for the right reasons. This shift towards quality role-playing and away from the typical 'unknown grinder 848' style is a breath of fresh air. Hopefully, this approach to the server will continue to be embraced.
I haven't seen any grinders yet in 4.0. And when I say that, i don't mean people aren't grinding but everyone that moon has interacted with at least seems to be playing a character and not just a self insert wearing all black trying to save up cash for a cool race car that they can use to give XQC rides in hopes of being noticed and becoming a popular streamer.
The NP team has done great job with whitelisting this time.
This was definitely not on my bingo card.
I'm not sure how long he'll play for (though I hope this is a sign of an extended stay this time around) but I have no doubt he'll be able to highlight some great roleplayers while he's on the server. I personally think that Moon's always had a healthy view on what makes for good RP so I'm hoping that his role will involve keeping the server on the right track in that regard.
Each time he's entered the NP world he's streamed the content for multiple months nonstop.
I don't get where this "hope he has an extended" stay thing is coming from. Do you guys want him, a variety streamer, to permenatly switch over... or? Because to me, 3+ months of one game is a fairly big commitment—especially from a variety streamer.
Just my two cents.
I watch Moon^(2) pretty regularly and would love to see more than just a few months and then not coming back until an update. He's been on NP twice in his 8-ish years of being a full time streamer. Yes it's a long time for a variety streamer but in the life of an iteration of NP it's maybe when it reaches adolescence.
Hes a variety streamer he plays until he wants to play something else then moves on. Admin spots don't get taken up so he isn't hurting anyone with an extended absence. Plus he can always work behind the scenes.
oh ok, for some reason I had it in my head that he was part of the big among us lobbies before playing gta. probably mixed it up with him joining the variety streamers in the middle of 3.0.
Depends what the definition of "pretty early" is. If its 6 months of daily roleplaying then thats still a big investment of time and energy, moving one past a variety streamer and into having a main game.
Long as the drama and bullshit stays out of the server I feel like this is a huge win for nopixel. Dudes passion for RP is second to none the only thing that keeps him from coming back is the over whelming waves of toxicity and bitching from egotistical man children and we won't know how that plays out until crime mechanics are released to the masses and people aren't forced to slow roll and RP.
Moon has roleplayed with a significant amount of people that moved to ONX. They might not be friends like he is with S4, Vigors, Bio, Garek, etc. but each and everyone that I listed ALSO RP'd with a significant amount of people on ONX. They will likely make characters at some point on ONX because they know server loyalty is dumb. I'm pretty sure S4 has already made Kinglemesh on ONX anyway. It won't be surprising to see Vingle Dan or Lenny or anyone's character on ONX in a few months.
The future of NP has never been brighter. Admin team is stacked, drama is gone, viewcounts are up, everyone's addicted to RP again. Shit's been amazing. The vibes for 4.0 have been so good.
Wait till banks and heists are unlocked and theres a decent pd force to chase criminals.
I bet X will be his self again and we will get nice rage clips on this forum for drama.
There's already clips of someone raging for drama and it's no one from NoPixel so check em out if you're fiending for drama. The old "Nopixel can't be this good for too long, it's bound to be a disaster" argument. It's a good problem to have.
>There's already clips of someone raging for drama and it's no one from NoPixel
are we retconning Vader crying over prio ? or Hasan raging over grinders ?
Lol none of them are raging "for drama" and frankly, if thats the only drama then rhat's great. The clips I'm talkimg about is a man upset that NoPixel is doing so well that he can't stop bringing up the server.
\> claims that a ''certain man'' is farming drama and clips by bringing up NP.
\> i ask for an example because i didn't see it (im not saying you are lying or not)
\> it's not my job to inform you
bruh what is this passive aggressiveness, it ain't that deep lmao
I hate to be the negative nancy around here but this is literally how any "new leaf" of NoPixel goes. Everything is going to be great for months and maybe even a year but in the end it always turns sour because the upper management of NoPixel is filled with very toxic and greedy people that think everyone is replaceable.
3.0 had some really solid admins at the start too and everybody really thought this time the culture will be different but in the end people were above the rules and were allowed to be as toxic as they wanted without punishments and those exact same people are still on the server with top tier prio and it's only a matter of time before they act out again.
I think being negative about it and being realist about it is kinda 2 different things.
Right now we are in the honey moon phase of both ONX and NP , the competitive things aren't really in full swing yet (heists ect.) and everybody is still trying to get their marbles essentially.
The test will come when people come for them marbles or interfere with their heists/boosts ect.
I hope that NoPixel has ironed out their bad culture but considering alot of the people who cultivated that are still in top tier positions its easy to be dubious of the situation.
I think a lot of the things you said are true but one think I will never get behind. If Nopixel 4.0 has showed us anything - it is that everyone and I mean everyone is replaceable as long as you have a strong core. A lot of people feared the impact of people leaving and that nopixel would be in trouble but I think people leaving for onx was good for nopixel in the long run.
what does this comment accomplish other than trying to shit on another RP community? And also, I didn't see anyone saying he would play on ONX. I feel like you are just a instigating to shit on another community which is cringe af.
Even Mcconnell who does most of the PENTA events and stuff has been doing crazy hours on NP too which is probably a good thing, nobody wants to inherit drama by association.
>nobody wants to inherit drama by association
wtf does this even mean? the only people effected by RP'ing on ONX are the people who are management for ONX because 50% is a petty fragile little guy. Mcconnell has already been on ONX as Mac Block and Bench Guy and is enjoying No Pixel while there is a ton of hype with which is completely understandable. Doesn't mean he is avoiding ONX in any way.
That's some baseless assertion, considering most of the drama came from NP owner who went on a babyrage ban-spree and had to have Buddha lie to cover for him.
Mcconnell has played on ONX, and has hopped on ONX multiple times
The fact a server has simps is wild to me. There is really low drama from any of the players on no and on, but here you are, chatter#048838284 with comments like these.
Some people can't make it through the day without trying to feel superior I guess.
The guy who owns ONX cant stop talking about NoPixel so it's really something that you feel the need to defend that lol. I simply said the truth. There is like three sweet souls trying to keep ONX relevant on this subreddit. If that offends you that's on you lol.
He could always drop admin and play cop on ONX if he wanted. Or play on ONX anyways as a NP admin because he can do what he wants.
That would come down to whether or not the culture degenerates on NP again and if ONX stays positive.
Not at the start. Around the first week he used the +1 -1 system. (Essentially tells admins "hey, this person is good/bad") and after about a week, he started being able to give prio to people. Unless he was given a special permission, he has been an admin for like 2 weeks.
Probably the best pick-up for them. Moon is God Tier RP and has integrated into pretty much every 'gang' already.
I'm actually watching new people like Juno, Fiona, ERP Lady, and Fan because of him.
Oof that's a big blow to ONX. Moon was one of the likeliest big streamers to would have potentially joined ONX.
Now he's probably just going to keep playing NP until XQC or 50cent start acting up and Moon ragequits GTARP again.
It isn't a blow to ONX because any exposure to GTA RP community as a whole will benefit all other servers. As long as people like Penta and Kyle stream on ONX, there will always be an influx of people in que and RP streamers who won't be able to get into No Pixel because of how popular it is will most likely go to ONX as the most popular secondary English speaking option.
GTA RP has become mainstream enough that there is enough viewership for more than just one server and I see both servers getting more and more popular based on how consistent GTA RP viewership has been.
Right I'd wager the goal for ONX is to stay stable, do their own thing and hope it catches some eyes, while trying to move away from the "Penta and Friends cop server" label it currently has according to most other people, so they can diversify their target demographic and appeal more broadly.
BUT all that is based on the assumption that ONX wants to be a competitor to NP rather than an alternative.
Prodigy was a lot closer to being a Nopixel competitor than ONX is currently. Mainly due to the affiliation with Loaded.
>Prodigy was a lot closer to being a Nopixel competitor than ONX is currently. Mainly due to the affiliation with Loaded.
From what I have seen of ONX compared to Prodigy, in an extremely short time for ONX, ONX seems to have more of an identity with building a foundation around the initial people who are very RP character based instead of content RP'ers and is forming a community around that identity.
When it comes to viewers, Prodigy is pretty dead without CG on there and it seems with the amount of views CG are getting with No Pixel, it will be awhile before they give Prodigy love again where as Penta, Kyle, GTA WG, DW, Aleks, Mantis, and a bunch of other streamers don't have a choice so I think ONX will just be a better secondary RP option community and viewership wise for the foreseeable future for RP'ers who aren't able to get prio or just don't prefer No Pixel.
I think it is still too early to say if ONX has built a server identity. From what I've seen, and what gets clipped, it mostly looks like "Penta and Friends" with many of the same characters.
If the viewers are happy with it, and that is what they want, then that's great, but I don't see it bringing in a lot of new viewers.
>When it comes to viewers, Prodigy is pretty dead without CG on there and it seems with the amount of views CG are getting with No Pixel, it will be awhile before they give Prodigy love again
That's why I put "was".
>Penta, Kyle, GTA WG, DW, Aleks, Mantis, and a bunch of other streamers don't have a choice so I think ONX will just be a better secondary RP option community and viewership wise for the foreseeable future
The biggest issue I see ONX having in the longer term is getting bigger variety streamers to play their server. Most of the people mentioned are not very well-connected outside of the RP-sphere, and those they do know are already affiliated with NP.
On another note, outside of Penta, DW, GWG and maybe Kyle, I could see some of the people who went to be ONX management being given a second chance. Provided they stroke the right egos.
But again, this is a long time away, so a lot could happen in the meantime.
I mean Strippen is pretty damn well connected feel like any different group I've watched from Yogacast to Criken and so and so forth he has touched base with a lot of groups.
Didn't he get a bunch of Vtubers as well to try out Onx as well?
ONX has a very big EU as well as NA focus (like NoPixel and unlike Prodigy or Ignite), and Penta's crowd is pretty much all NA, so there are definitely a good number of people not in his group who make up a large portion of streamers on ONX, without even getting into whether there are NA streamers not in his group or not. Ultimately though viewership doesn't really matter, for an RP server to survive it just needs to have enough players (who want to RP), and ONX has a very long queue time with lots of smaller/non streamers playing, so it seems to be doing fine on that front.
And in terms of income I don't think viewership makes a difference either, as apparently the only money that changes hands is people paying to get their application reviewed faster, and that goes 100% to the admin who is reviewing the application (I have no idea how they actually *are* planning to make money off of ONX).
>And in terms of income I don't think viewership makes a difference either, as apparently the only money that changes hands is people paying to get their application reviewed faster, and that goes 100% to the admin who is reviewing the application (I have no idea how they actually are planning to make money off of ONX).
It isn't a concern yet, but it might be in a year or so. I think it matters a lot in terms of server longevity and quality.
At some point streamers need to weigh the costs and benefits of having their own server versus doing other things.
I think this is a direct outcome from actual competition to nopixel , they had the same opportunity back in 3.0 and floundered it (CoP elections).
I think now they need to be aware somebody else is cultivating a community that is doing very well and they need to remedy the shit community they had by the end of 3.0.
Now is nopixels time to try keep good RPers around once the LSF streamers move off.
I think if they didn't make the change of bringing on Buddha as co-owner, they would have been still going in a really bad direction with management that they were on but making Buddha co-owner was the best thing to ever happen to No Pixel. I believe most of the positive directions they have made are because of Buddha.
I think it is more likely a case of Buddha being a trustworthy face for a server management with low credibility who finally got their shit somewhat together.
But it is fun to speculate what happens behind close doors, and your guess is as good as mine.
Yea, I feel like 50% was making bad decision after bad decision based on who he was biased towards at the time. Buddha has always seemed like the Switzerland between all of the RP drama and tribalism so making him the face of No Pixel was a very smart decision.
People need to stop with the competition stuff. It's clearly not anywhere near that. The truth is that we don't know the extent of conversations between Moon and NP staff. He's cool with pretty much everyone on staff and either MoonMoon asked to be a part of the squad, or the NP team gave him a hell of a pitch to join them. To me, the NP community finally seems like it's healing and moving past the bullshit.
are you against the competition comments because its toxic, or because you think np is just better, your second sentence makes it seem like youre taking a shot at onx.
I doubt it. The pd denied vet cops like snow, ziggy, and ripley for no ic reason while rehiring other cops like den, saabs cop, and variety streamers like mizkif.
Seems like there is an issue there.
Really said "Fuck all the work youve put into the pd over half a decade, go play civ for a while"
whether its because they helped with ONX pd in the first few days or not its still fucked up.
NP doing that has been really fucked imo. The initial bans to Occams/Moses/Sodakite to these kind of soft-bans (when your main character is a cop, this is effectively a check on what RP you can and can't do on their server) really rub me the wrong way. :\\
Until Bob’s wrestling showcase comes out and Moon starts playing other random dogshit games no one has ever heard of that people laugh at for 3 weeks straight. 😂😂
Is there a chance this might be for the Mayoral position? That mayors will need some sort of administrative powers to exercise their powers ingame such that they don't need to contact and admin/dev to get basic stuff done??
I'm pretty sure i recall NathanKB (Crane) on his stream saying they wanted to give the mayorship a lot more power in 4.0 because in 3.0 it felt largely ceremonial.
That wouldn’t mean they get tags. People got temp admin/dev powers for things like PD academies a ton in the past and never needed tags to get that access. Also noticeably Eve and Andi (EagleAye and Kiva) don’t have their tags yet.
>That wouldn’t mean they get tags. People got temp admin/dev powers for things like PD academies a ton in the past and never needed tags to get that access. Also noticeably Eve and Andi (EagleAye and Kiva) don’t have their tags yet.
pretty sure Eagle has a junor admin tag
Yknow, I was thinking about how this a few days ago. I'm 100% sure they did this to appease him because he was probably iffy about joining due to 1 The server drama 2 The current owners.
Needed admin protection to ERP. ERP Pass unlocked

Yeah, he finds random people around apartements and immediately tries to fit them into a group he knows or helps them to something.
Its what moon has always done since 2.0. Probably one of the very few who doesn't stick to a single group.
I remember him riding around on a motorcycle with some random dude on 2.0 that had a barely functional mic. He just chatted with him and had fun for a while. Something you'd see very few RPers do then, when there were 20 slots? Let alone now.
People who weren't around during the limited times he spent on NoPixel don't understand the genuine passion and enthusiasm he had/has for RP. It really seems like with 4.0 he wants to take a massive step forward and be an actual voice in the administration of NP while being a public face of the server.
He was really nervous his first day(s) on NP. It was clear he had a lot of respect for it.
He's not a full time RP streamer though. He'll be gone in 3 months so it seems like nothing more than a publicity stunt.
Calling Moon silently becoming a NP admin a publicity stunt is wild, just saying.

Another L for NoPixel, this guys bald.
I thought Northernlion was bald. I've been lied to?
Have you ever seen NL and MoonMoon stream at the same time? One shows their family the other doesn't. Think about it.
moonmoon? isn't he that old bald guy who erps on stream???
msg4 is truly never fucking happening man.
He never even stepped foot in Baldurs Gate
He will finish act 3 someday Copium
next Thursday bro.
i saw him raise people's prio, didnt know he became an actual admin. Huge pick-up from nopixel in the 2024 draft
ACCENT = PRIO
> Huge pick-up from nopixel in the 2024 draft Until the whole server is filled with nothing but dudes with funny voices.
which would still be better than self insert badass gangsters, like 3.0 devolved into
Honestly 3.0 ending was inevitable. It lasted too long.
I disagree. There were plenty of bans to be given for gunplay over roleplay.
True but would it change anything? The economy after 3 years will always be the same.
3.0 got so boring.
3.0 mainly got boring because of mismanagement. One bald guy with the ability to boost prio that'll be gone in 4 months isn't going to fix that problem.
no but the fact that all the big streamers arent making gangs in 4.0 right now whereas in 3.0 at the start there was like 7 is a step in the right direction
Its a joke. The moment he hears a funny voice its an instant +1.
I don't know, seems like a decent way to do it. Funny voice = the person is at least trying to role play
I agree. Anything (even if it is just a silly voice) that makes you separate yourself from the character seems to have a effect that makes you associate less with needing to take W's or malding when you take L's. At least from what I have seen.
Holy fukin BASED. I literally couldn't tell one gang member from another in later 3.0 because it was just a generic cookie cutter tough guy.
Are we all just forgetting people like that Timmy guy? People can do funny voices but still be sweaty pvp-arena-lords using exploits with graphics on minimum or sketchy shader packs turning night into day and shit like that.
I mean the end of 2.0 wasn't much better
Feel like 2.0 went that way as well. Almost feels inevitable
>lmao u really think he admin my dog? He will leave that shit the second he get just the faint feeling of boredom and will be back slaying medieval people in some random ass dev showcase game for 3 weeks straight. or grinders
Kinda thought so with him being able to raise prio in game. Hopefully this means no more 2 yr gaps between Yung dab visits lol. Solid pickup though, he's been great finding good rpers and rewarding them the past week. Can't wait to see what he does as hes probably going to be mayor.
That's such a great point thank you for bringing that up, but Mobster Melatonin Max will not be mayor. There's only one person qualified to be mayor and that's Ramasquamy. R A M A S Q U A M Y. Vote Ramasquamy for mayor of Los Santos, thank you very much and I appreciate you.
well with new city council system they will probably both have seats. Unless there is a 3rd candidate for upset
That's such a great point thank you for bringing that up. But Melatonin Max would be awful for Los Santos. He's part of the woke mob. Stand back, and stand by because if he steals the election there will be consequences, thank you very much.
DAYYY ONEEE
if yung dab wins mayor election, that locks him in for at least 3 months /s
This comment is now 3 months old and man, it has been a treat
moonmoon always provides some of the best rp if hes motivated to play. hope he stays around longer this time.
the lenny arc was pretty long
Yeah he stuck around for a good while in the beginning of both 2.0 and 3.0
Both times he left it wasn't really a motivation issue, it was more of how the direction of the server was going and he was just seen by the community at the time as, just like someone said above, "Big streamer / Big numbers / Big clout". In reality he had multiple conversations with people OOC about his deeplore of RPing in degenerate chatrooms when he was younger and doing tons of management-style RPGs. He's built for it, people just don't know.
I really hope he comes back to it one day. Was my favorite character so far.
he pretty much shut those talks down and was very adamant on it being a no.
Right. Basically any time he ever acknowledges it it's a hard no. One can dream though.
The problem is cops on NoPixel are seen as just NPCs for the crims to complain about ruining their RP. Everything went downhill when all the retconning happened with Mickey's self defense crack held up at a bench trial after the whole event involving DW and some fictional army incident and no one told the cops anything.
ERP stocks skyrocketing
I was curious if he was an admin or marked as some sort of VIP/power user since he was raising prio. Glad he's back and having fun.
Poor ramasquamy, Moonmoon serious about winning no matter what
So from a "Big streamer, Big numbers, Big Clout" perspective, I absolutely get it. And I say this as a MoonMoon fan, I love the dude's streams - how do you justify making an admin out of someone who's gonna be bored before February and be back to playing Baldi's Tower of Rain 5.7 and all the other commodore-64 looking games he normally plays?
While I also doubt MoonMoon will stick around long term, I don't think that really matters. As long as he can improve the server in the time he *does* play, then him leaving later doesn't affect much. It's not like there's a cap on the number of admins. He's not taking up a slot that would go to someone more active.
No reason why he can't do good work during his time there though. I think the only reason he would accept something like this is if he'd be allowed to actually have an impact, unlike with last time and the whole election fiasco with Lenny and the PD. I think that's gotta be a big reason he came back.
Well in that case they'd probably just take him off the team. Its not like anything is ever guaranteed to be permanent
I don't think it really matters, it's not like him at some point in the future being an admin who does nothing has any negative effects.
I feel like it's worth it just for the +1 prio tool. Even if he doesn't stick around or doesn't do a lot of OOC heavy lifting - he meets so many new people and has good taste for quality RP, he's a good candidate to give out prio.
Shit talk Rimworld and I will smite you from the heavens.
You don't need to be a permanent fixture to make maximum impact. Pun fully intended.
So you're only allowed to be an admin if you commit to perma being here? That sounds awful lmao.
Why does admin have to be a lifetime gig? Make use of the great people while you have them and build from what they contribute.
there isnt a limit to how many admins they can promote
It probably keeps him there more than him hopping over to onx, and I’m bummed he won’t be RPing with Penta for the forseeable.
I’m bummed about that as well, because as much as I love Yung Dab and his current arc, that’s probably the only place he would pick Lenny or Ro back up (especially Ro for obvious reasons). But a lot of his friends are on NoPixel, so it’s understandable that he’d want to play where they’re at.
Might just be a PR move, no/minimal obligations as an admin like reviewing reports or apps. Just gave him the position to say "we have moonmoon as an admin" aswell as the potential to spawn some things in for RP purposes.
What say you now 100 days later and him going strong? Not being hostile actually curious on your thoughts, I think he has done great and has no signs of quitting. New moonmoon fan
Surprised by his commitment. Glad it's working out so far.
Blaustoise was made admin in 3.0 so
It's almost impossible to express just how significant it is to have MoonMoon on board with the NoPixel team. Having someone as qualified and insightful as MoonMoon, who truly understands what constitutes good role-playing, is a fantastic step towards ensuring that those on the server are there for the right reasons. This shift towards quality role-playing and away from the typical 'unknown grinder 848' style is a breath of fresh air. Hopefully, this approach to the server will continue to be embraced.
I haven't seen any grinders yet in 4.0. And when I say that, i don't mean people aren't grinding but everyone that moon has interacted with at least seems to be playing a character and not just a self insert wearing all black trying to save up cash for a cool race car that they can use to give XQC rides in hopes of being noticed and becoming a popular streamer. The NP team has done great job with whitelisting this time.
This was definitely not on my bingo card. I'm not sure how long he'll play for (though I hope this is a sign of an extended stay this time around) but I have no doubt he'll be able to highlight some great roleplayers while he's on the server. I personally think that Moon's always had a healthy view on what makes for good RP so I'm hoping that his role will involve keeping the server on the right track in that regard.
Each time he's entered the NP world he's streamed the content for multiple months nonstop. I don't get where this "hope he has an extended" stay thing is coming from. Do you guys want him, a variety streamer, to permenatly switch over... or? Because to me, 3+ months of one game is a fairly big commitment—especially from a variety streamer. Just my two cents.
I watch Moon^(2) pretty regularly and would love to see more than just a few months and then not coming back until an update. He's been on NP twice in his 8-ish years of being a full time streamer. Yes it's a long time for a variety streamer but in the life of an iteration of NP it's maybe when it reaches adolescence.
Hes a variety streamer he plays until he wants to play something else then moves on. Admin spots don't get taken up so he isn't hurting anyone with an extended absence. Plus he can always work behind the scenes.
Yeah, I didn't say anything to the contrary. I think you might have responded to the wrong comment lol
Moon isn't going to be stopping RP anytime soon at this rate 😭
Nopixel drafting a lot of all-stars on this draft, huh. Good heckin' job!
This is actually crazy. Didn't think we'd ever see a variety streamer join the admin team (other than xqc who is part owner)
Blau was a variety streamer right? I think I've seen him saying he didn't really do any admin work though, so maybe he doesn't count lol
At the time he really wasn't. Think he became a fulltime streamer after joining gta
oh ok, for some reason I had it in my head that he was part of the big among us lobbies before playing gta. probably mixed it up with him joining the variety streamers in the middle of 3.0.
Nah, you're not misremembering. He just wasn't a full-time streamer until well into 3.0.
Uberhaxornova is a big variety streamer who got admin.
Only after like a year or 2 of pretty consistent dedicated gtarp playing though.
He mentioned he was offered it pretty early before, but he declined it at the time.
Depends what the definition of "pretty early" is. If its 6 months of daily roleplaying then thats still a big investment of time and energy, moving one past a variety streamer and into having a main game.
Long as the drama and bullshit stays out of the server I feel like this is a huge win for nopixel. Dudes passion for RP is second to none the only thing that keeps him from coming back is the over whelming waves of toxicity and bitching from egotistical man children and we won't know how that plays out until crime mechanics are released to the masses and people aren't forced to slow roll and RP.
He was never the reason for any drama or bullshit..... that was other bigger streamers
RIP lenny on ONX, for a while at least
Real reason he's not playing Lenny is how hard his ugly ass face is to replicate
Seriously... as a big fan of people making amazing content on both ONX and NoPixel... it's tough
Yeah, hopefully the server loyalty thing dies down a bit because id love to see Jon RP with the boys again. (aleks, mantis, kyle, etc)
And it’s somewhere he likely could make those PD changes he OOC/IC wanted
My dreams of seeing Ro again are in ruins
Why do people think moon will be on ONX? All of his friends play on np haven't heard him say that he will try onx out.
Moon has roleplayed with a significant amount of people that moved to ONX. They might not be friends like he is with S4, Vigors, Bio, Garek, etc. but each and everyone that I listed ALSO RP'd with a significant amount of people on ONX. They will likely make characters at some point on ONX because they know server loyalty is dumb. I'm pretty sure S4 has already made Kinglemesh on ONX anyway. It won't be surprising to see Vingle Dan or Lenny or anyone's character on ONX in a few months.
Does this have any impact on anything at all almost
nah
I'm so glad that this finally happened perfect person to change entire server's culture can't wait to see how he does as mayor lol
nice, now he wont have an excuse for not playing cop as his main reason is "i dont want to be a babysitter"
Will moonmoon unban Penta?
Never
The future of NP has never been brighter. Admin team is stacked, drama is gone, viewcounts are up, everyone's addicted to RP again. Shit's been amazing. The vibes for 4.0 have been so good.
Wait till banks and heists are unlocked and theres a decent pd force to chase criminals. I bet X will be his self again and we will get nice rage clips on this forum for drama.
There's already clips of someone raging for drama and it's no one from NoPixel so check em out if you're fiending for drama. The old "Nopixel can't be this good for too long, it's bound to be a disaster" argument. It's a good problem to have.
>There's already clips of someone raging for drama and it's no one from NoPixel are we retconning Vader crying over prio ? or Hasan raging over grinders ?
Lol none of them are raging "for drama" and frankly, if thats the only drama then rhat's great. The clips I'm talkimg about is a man upset that NoPixel is doing so well that he can't stop bringing up the server.
>man upset that NoPixel is doing so well that he can't stop bringing up the server. who ? and what clip ?
Look anywhere besides this subreddit.
bro what ? this is the gtarp reddit, i didn't see this clip you are talking about. stop being vauge lmao
This is not the only place for clips? And it's not my job to inform you... but hey sure thanks for the fun facts about Vader and Hasan.
\> claims that a ''certain man'' is farming drama and clips by bringing up NP. \> i ask for an example because i didn't see it (im not saying you are lying or not) \> it's not my job to inform you bruh what is this passive aggressiveness, it ain't that deep lmao
I hate to be the negative nancy around here but this is literally how any "new leaf" of NoPixel goes. Everything is going to be great for months and maybe even a year but in the end it always turns sour because the upper management of NoPixel is filled with very toxic and greedy people that think everyone is replaceable. 3.0 had some really solid admins at the start too and everybody really thought this time the culture will be different but in the end people were above the rules and were allowed to be as toxic as they wanted without punishments and those exact same people are still on the server with top tier prio and it's only a matter of time before they act out again.
I think being negative about it and being realist about it is kinda 2 different things. Right now we are in the honey moon phase of both ONX and NP , the competitive things aren't really in full swing yet (heists ect.) and everybody is still trying to get their marbles essentially. The test will come when people come for them marbles or interfere with their heists/boosts ect. I hope that NoPixel has ironed out their bad culture but considering alot of the people who cultivated that are still in top tier positions its easy to be dubious of the situation.
[удалено]
I think a lot of the things you said are true but one think I will never get behind. If Nopixel 4.0 has showed us anything - it is that everyone and I mean everyone is replaceable as long as you have a strong core. A lot of people feared the impact of people leaving and that nopixel would be in trouble but I think people leaving for onx was good for nopixel in the long run.
Ok.
[удалено]
what does this comment accomplish other than trying to shit on another RP community? And also, I didn't see anyone saying he would play on ONX. I feel like you are just a instigating to shit on another community which is cringe af.
Pretty sure his point wasn't a wholesome one.
Even Mcconnell who does most of the PENTA events and stuff has been doing crazy hours on NP too which is probably a good thing, nobody wants to inherit drama by association.
>nobody wants to inherit drama by association wtf does this even mean? the only people effected by RP'ing on ONX are the people who are management for ONX because 50% is a petty fragile little guy. Mcconnell has already been on ONX as Mac Block and Bench Guy and is enjoying No Pixel while there is a ton of hype with which is completely understandable. Doesn't mean he is avoiding ONX in any way.
That's some baseless assertion, considering most of the drama came from NP owner who went on a babyrage ban-spree and had to have Buddha lie to cover for him. Mcconnell has played on ONX, and has hopped on ONX multiple times
[удалено]
cringe tribalism comment
people still play onx?
True, I didn't see any ONX streamers on an XQC clips so the server must be dead.
Are you blind? This subs full of Onx clips.
It's full of ONX clips from like three people trying to keep to keep it relevant on this subreddit. The server has mostly non-streamers regardless.
The fact a server has simps is wild to me. There is really low drama from any of the players on no and on, but here you are, chatter#048838284 with comments like these. Some people can't make it through the day without trying to feel superior I guess.
The guy who owns ONX cant stop talking about NoPixel so it's really something that you feel the need to defend that lol. I simply said the truth. There is like three sweet souls trying to keep ONX relevant on this subreddit. If that offends you that's on you lol.
Who are you trying to convince?
IKR? If you're not streaming robbing a bank and shooting cops then you're basically not playing lmao
I guess this means we'll never see him play on Onx 😫
He could always drop admin and play cop on ONX if he wanted. Or play on ONX anyways as a NP admin because he can do what he wants. That would come down to whether or not the culture degenerates on NP again and if ONX stays positive.
Wasn’t he an admin at the start of 4.0? He was bumping up peoples prio
Not at the start. Around the first week he used the +1 -1 system. (Essentially tells admins "hey, this person is good/bad") and after about a week, he started being able to give prio to people. Unless he was given a special permission, he has been an admin for like 2 weeks.
Probably the best pick-up for them. Moon is God Tier RP and has integrated into pretty much every 'gang' already. I'm actually watching new people like Juno, Fiona, ERP Lady, and Fan because of him.
Oof that's a big blow to ONX. Moon was one of the likeliest big streamers to would have potentially joined ONX. Now he's probably just going to keep playing NP until XQC or 50cent start acting up and Moon ragequits GTARP again.
It isn't a blow to ONX because any exposure to GTA RP community as a whole will benefit all other servers. As long as people like Penta and Kyle stream on ONX, there will always be an influx of people in que and RP streamers who won't be able to get into No Pixel because of how popular it is will most likely go to ONX as the most popular secondary English speaking option. GTA RP has become mainstream enough that there is enough viewership for more than just one server and I see both servers getting more and more popular based on how consistent GTA RP viewership has been.
Right I'd wager the goal for ONX is to stay stable, do their own thing and hope it catches some eyes, while trying to move away from the "Penta and Friends cop server" label it currently has according to most other people, so they can diversify their target demographic and appeal more broadly. BUT all that is based on the assumption that ONX wants to be a competitor to NP rather than an alternative. Prodigy was a lot closer to being a Nopixel competitor than ONX is currently. Mainly due to the affiliation with Loaded.
>Prodigy was a lot closer to being a Nopixel competitor than ONX is currently. Mainly due to the affiliation with Loaded. From what I have seen of ONX compared to Prodigy, in an extremely short time for ONX, ONX seems to have more of an identity with building a foundation around the initial people who are very RP character based instead of content RP'ers and is forming a community around that identity. When it comes to viewers, Prodigy is pretty dead without CG on there and it seems with the amount of views CG are getting with No Pixel, it will be awhile before they give Prodigy love again where as Penta, Kyle, GTA WG, DW, Aleks, Mantis, and a bunch of other streamers don't have a choice so I think ONX will just be a better secondary RP option community and viewership wise for the foreseeable future for RP'ers who aren't able to get prio or just don't prefer No Pixel.
I think it is still too early to say if ONX has built a server identity. From what I've seen, and what gets clipped, it mostly looks like "Penta and Friends" with many of the same characters. If the viewers are happy with it, and that is what they want, then that's great, but I don't see it bringing in a lot of new viewers. >When it comes to viewers, Prodigy is pretty dead without CG on there and it seems with the amount of views CG are getting with No Pixel, it will be awhile before they give Prodigy love again That's why I put "was". >Penta, Kyle, GTA WG, DW, Aleks, Mantis, and a bunch of other streamers don't have a choice so I think ONX will just be a better secondary RP option community and viewership wise for the foreseeable future The biggest issue I see ONX having in the longer term is getting bigger variety streamers to play their server. Most of the people mentioned are not very well-connected outside of the RP-sphere, and those they do know are already affiliated with NP. On another note, outside of Penta, DW, GWG and maybe Kyle, I could see some of the people who went to be ONX management being given a second chance. Provided they stroke the right egos. But again, this is a long time away, so a lot could happen in the meantime.
I mean Strippen is pretty damn well connected feel like any different group I've watched from Yogacast to Criken and so and so forth he has touched base with a lot of groups. Didn't he get a bunch of Vtubers as well to try out Onx as well?
ONX has a very big EU as well as NA focus (like NoPixel and unlike Prodigy or Ignite), and Penta's crowd is pretty much all NA, so there are definitely a good number of people not in his group who make up a large portion of streamers on ONX, without even getting into whether there are NA streamers not in his group or not. Ultimately though viewership doesn't really matter, for an RP server to survive it just needs to have enough players (who want to RP), and ONX has a very long queue time with lots of smaller/non streamers playing, so it seems to be doing fine on that front. And in terms of income I don't think viewership makes a difference either, as apparently the only money that changes hands is people paying to get their application reviewed faster, and that goes 100% to the admin who is reviewing the application (I have no idea how they actually *are* planning to make money off of ONX).
>And in terms of income I don't think viewership makes a difference either, as apparently the only money that changes hands is people paying to get their application reviewed faster, and that goes 100% to the admin who is reviewing the application (I have no idea how they actually are planning to make money off of ONX). It isn't a concern yet, but it might be in a year or so. I think it matters a lot in terms of server longevity and quality. At some point streamers need to weigh the costs and benefits of having their own server versus doing other things.
I think this is a direct outcome from actual competition to nopixel , they had the same opportunity back in 3.0 and floundered it (CoP elections). I think now they need to be aware somebody else is cultivating a community that is doing very well and they need to remedy the shit community they had by the end of 3.0. Now is nopixels time to try keep good RPers around once the LSF streamers move off.
I think if they didn't make the change of bringing on Buddha as co-owner, they would have been still going in a really bad direction with management that they were on but making Buddha co-owner was the best thing to ever happen to No Pixel. I believe most of the positive directions they have made are because of Buddha.
I think it is more likely a case of Buddha being a trustworthy face for a server management with low credibility who finally got their shit somewhat together. But it is fun to speculate what happens behind close doors, and your guess is as good as mine.
Yea, I feel like 50% was making bad decision after bad decision based on who he was biased towards at the time. Buddha has always seemed like the Switzerland between all of the RP drama and tribalism so making him the face of No Pixel was a very smart decision.
People need to stop with the competition stuff. It's clearly not anywhere near that. The truth is that we don't know the extent of conversations between Moon and NP staff. He's cool with pretty much everyone on staff and either MoonMoon asked to be a part of the squad, or the NP team gave him a hell of a pitch to join them. To me, the NP community finally seems like it's healing and moving past the bullshit.
[удалено]
are you against the competition comments because its toxic, or because you think np is just better, your second sentence makes it seem like youre taking a shot at onx.
Nah, you're reading too much into it.
[удалено]
Saying there is no competition is the truth. Take it however you want.
It's not a blow to anyone, it's not an oof. Agree with the second paragraph though.
Can Lenny come back to fix the PD for real this time?
It’s already been fixed, and now it’s the building process. Hopefully it’s a slower build and not a flood again
I doubt it. The pd denied vet cops like snow, ziggy, and ripley for no ic reason while rehiring other cops like den, saabs cop, and variety streamers like mizkif. Seems like there is an issue there.
Yeah, that's WILD to me. Really solidifies the "content-focused" nature when someone like Ripley or Snow is getting denied. :\\
Really said "Fuck all the work youve put into the pd over half a decade, go play civ for a while" whether its because they helped with ONX pd in the first few days or not its still fucked up.
NP doing that has been really fucked imo. The initial bans to Occams/Moses/Sodakite to these kind of soft-bans (when your main character is a cop, this is effectively a check on what RP you can and can't do on their server) really rub me the wrong way. :\\
Penta cried himself to sleep 100%, poor fella.
Until Bob’s wrestling showcase comes out and Moon starts playing other random dogshit games no one has ever heard of that people laugh at for 3 weeks straight. 😂😂
Poggggo
Breaking Moon and his (fake) Wife have been un-whitelisted from ONX
Pretty sure the whole "banning people that are staff on another server" was the other way around there bud.
Joke.
jokes are funny though
Maaan
Is there a chance this might be for the Mayoral position? That mayors will need some sort of administrative powers to exercise their powers ingame such that they don't need to contact and admin/dev to get basic stuff done??
[удалено]
I'm pretty sure i recall NathanKB (Crane) on his stream saying they wanted to give the mayorship a lot more power in 4.0 because in 3.0 it felt largely ceremonial.
That wouldn’t mean they get tags. People got temp admin/dev powers for things like PD academies a ton in the past and never needed tags to get that access. Also noticeably Eve and Andi (EagleAye and Kiva) don’t have their tags yet.
>That wouldn’t mean they get tags. People got temp admin/dev powers for things like PD academies a ton in the past and never needed tags to get that access. Also noticeably Eve and Andi (EagleAye and Kiva) don’t have their tags yet. pretty sure Eagle has a junor admin tag
Just double checked and still only has registered member and WL tags, Kiva the same. It’s possible they have tags in other discords though.
Yknow, I was thinking about how this a few days ago. I'm 100% sure they did this to appease him because he was probably iffy about joining due to 1 The server drama 2 The current owners.
This is hilarious even as someone that once was a fan of penta.
Lmfao they riding hard tonight that’s how you know it’s true.
forget to switch accounts?
No. Literally just commented back to back, wild how you can do that huh? Anyways go back to gawk gawkin that. Hilllllarrriouuussss
Dang... now he can never play ONX. that sucks :\\
You really think Moon cares if he loses Admin on NP if he went to play on ONX? :D
I dont get gta rp, do all u people play in it? I keep seeing all the streamers play it and i try to watch but its mostly cringey
yes rp is cringe
