Evergreen Gardens

Samantha Mason is the one in the beret with the mouse. The angry one is Phoebe Essel. I know exactly which one she is. I was saying that they drew her like a girl version of another notable Brooklynite

I haven't been on in a while; busy with work and school... But I'm really liking this comic project; thinking of adding to it sometime. That being said... Samantha Mason looks like she's upset about the top 1 percent having more wealth than the bottom half of Tau Cetians combined.

Thanks! Same to you. What character do you usually play? My most used characters are Crandlewick Flinchmauster (whose name I'm changing to the much less-stupid Cyril Westergren), and Jon Everest.

It was a bad idea because I was not assigned to antag, and did not ask for proper permission to play a malfunctioning drone. And it didn't even add to the fun of the round, because the damage was easily reversed by an engineer in less than a minute. At best, I was a stupid, forgettable bit character. Next time, if I have an urge to commit random crimes, I'll ask the admins, or just go on a stupid server like GOONstation.

Looks like I'm still banned.

Thank you! I really appreciate this. I'll be sure to follow the rules this time.

BYOND Key: EvergreenGardens Total Ban Length: Permanent Banning staff member's Key: pumpkingslice Reason of Ban: Showing no signs of improvement Reason for Appeal: I got permabanned in November after welding doors shut as a maintenance drone. I tried appealing before, and was denied. I followed the advice of Frances and waited a few months. If I promise to follow the rules and conduct myself maturely and responsibly, would it be possible to lift the ban. Also, I swear I will NOT try creating a puppet account to bypass the ban if you say no. Or if I ever get banned again.

So there's nothing I can do to reverse the ban?

Can you please PM me the list of notes from the month I was allowed back on the station?

We're willing to overlook minor slip-ups, depending on how much time has elapsed since the last incident. One month since a permaban is not a lot of time. Neither was this a minor slip-up. You may or may not have been aware of the minor slip ups you did that round, however I was observing carefully. You had multiple cases of IC in OOC which I informally asked you to stop over OOC. I also observed you going around as a drone and saying something along the lines of "You are an intruder" to the crew. That may have not been what you said, but regardless you were saying things to the crew you really shouldn't have been saying. Those were your minor slip ups. Then the job-ban happened. Now when you accumulate that with your minor slip ups, which might I add are ban-able offenses themselves, it goes to show that you clearly have not shown any improvement since your unban. Before even applying the perma ban I made sure to double check your notes and you have quite the amount of notes in the span of a month after your unban. In my eyes, at this point it just is not worth unbanning you as you simply can not be trusted to not break another rule. So, which infractions were listed in the month?

While I certainly appreciate you being forthcoming with your less than honorable intentions, I must take note once again that making plans to come back on the server after having been banned to grief/self-antag does not help your case. Also, posting character sheets won't help you. The question here isn't about your writing or roleplaying abilities - it's about your ability to follow and understand the rules. Other people fucking up does not excuse you fucking up. You doing something else decently does not excuse you fucking up. You doing your job 95% of the time does not excuse you fucking up majorly the other 5%. At this point, you should just admit that you've made a mistake, and deal with it. I already admitted that I made a mistake. I'm sorry. And I was willing to accept the job-ban.

Okay. I'll be honest. I was planning to do something devious. In the ballpark of playing as a supervillain who was a disgruntled former employee. Also, to prove I take RP seriously, here's the character sheet I've been working on for Jon Everest: Full Name: Jonathan Charles Everest Species: Human Occupation: Xenobiologist Age: 25 [Fluff removed] _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Now if you'll excuse me, I'd like to get back to watching the desecration of my lifeless body on Hippiestation.

Except it should follow common sense that maintenance drones don't exist to fuck around, given that you are given very specific laws, just like cyborgs (one of which is "don't interfere"), and that you had /no business/ welding medbay doors. Between failing to acknowledge or understand how what you did is bad, and creating an account named "Ihatetheaurora" shortly after the ban and trying to reconnect, this paints you as an immature individual who doesn't have the patience to play on a heavy-RP server. Going to wait for someone else to weigh on this, but my first reflex is to keep the ban in place. You don't really get a permaban lifted, and then start messing up with what got you permabanned in the first place. So what does the rest of the month paint me as?

I would not consider that welding doors of a high traffic area, pulling alarms and creating a news channel as a drone constitutes "small-time" chucklefucking. Since I find it hard to believe you weren't aware you were clearly breaking the rules by doing all of this, I'm going to assume you simply cannot prevent yourself from doing these things. You were given plenty of warnings. You were given a last chance /after/ being permabanned. You just ruined that chance. You can apologize all you want, but you will find actions speak louder than words. At the moment, we have no guarantee you will actually fix your behavior, seeing as we gave you chance after chance to do so, and you blew every single last one of them. What makes this time so different? I've actually seen very little of the drones, and never played a synthetic. I really wasn't thinking about finding out the rules at the time. And how many times do I have to tell you? I DID fix my behavior. Between the first permaban and now, I did improve. I took my jobs seriously. I stopped chucklefucking. This was an isolated incident, and isn't a good representation of my current playing style. And if that's not good enough, then I'm done.

I stopped all of the chucklefucking after I was permabanned, until this incident. Wouldn't you say that doing your job for a whole month, then doing small-time chucklefucking as a maintenance drone after dying is a vast improvement over doing nothing but poisoning people and lighting the whole station on fire? I already said, go ahead and ban me from being a synthetic. But I did improve, and I apologize for trying to circumvent the ban.
