What grief? If you had literally just taken a few moments to talk to the guy like I asked you to, you'd know that he was okay with how that situation panned out. No one incurred any grief at all. I have an issue with this. If I ERP on the server with someone and they're okay with it, does that mean rules weren't broken?

[Denied] Nivalis664's CMO Application
Coalf replied to Nivalis664's topic in Whitelist Applications Archives
It's sat around a week and while it has a lot of read almost zero feedback. I'd recommend playing on the actual server for much longer and advertising your application more. Denied, locked and archived. -
He's a big guy. But I fail to see how exactly this conveys "Security cyborg" Seems less of a "Secure and protect" and more of a "Hate and penetrate" While I agree yes, this would be perfect for a syndicate cyborg, malfunctioning borg or perhaps a combat module this should have no place as a standart borg sprite.

Changelings are outdated, pure and simple, SS13 was never intended as a HRP platform and changeling doesn't work with it. (But uh had a good interactions!!!!! - Yeah no, for every good interaction you have to endure 20 parasting instasucks) And importantly. TAKE YOUR TIME You have TWO HOURS, TWO HOURS of gameplay where you can Pick a target, interact with a target, isolate the target, kill the target and dispose of the target. As an antag your responsibility is to provide fun, it's your choice who is having fun we WANT for as many people as possible to have fun but we know that CAN'T happen simply from how many people play. Focus on one target, one very very good murder can feel much better than a lot of badly done murders. The monologue thing is bullshit, don't do it. Nobody cares why you're killing them when the bullet is halfway to their spine. It's all about preparations! As a ling you're supposed to assume a targets identity, find a target, know how they act and what they do, observe their behaviour and quirks. Same with traitors, vampires and all other silent antagonists, your job is to provide fun to yourself and to the victim and POSSIBLY to everyone else on the station, sometimes that won't happen it's simply not possible, you have to accept that. Futhermore you have to accept, people are people and some people don't like losing. For every gank complaint we have two complaints of an antag complaining he got validated because his victim dared to defend himself.

Staff Complaint: PrOwOatePresidenti & OwOxia
Coalf replied to DatBerry's topic in Off Topic Discussion
OwO -
I am the banning staff member. You forgot to include your Ckey but this is a fresh appeal and I still remember your ckey. You entered the round, about half an hour into it you decide to drag pun pun into the bathrooms, hit him with a cane and choke him to death. Next when an officer discovered this, he proceeded to make an arrest where you accidentally discharged your shotgun aimed at his head, twice. After this immediatly when arrested you attempt to chew off your hand, this is when I noticed you and I thought "well maybe it was an accident" until you decided to do it again. This is your own explanation to everything that happened. Now if this was your first infraction I wouldn't have cared, but. TWO warnings regarding this lowRP behaviour, excluding the other notes which show how you basically didn't even bother skimming the rules. If you want to improve, read the rules and understand them, you have a whole week now.

[Denied] ben10083's Head of Staff Application
Coalf replied to ben10083's topic in Whitelist Applications Archives
The feedback here was well done and meaningful and the application itself wasn't bad itself. But, well done criticism can also be negative and while I firmly believe nothing above was done out of malicious intent, head whitelist players are held to higher scrutiny than normal players and thus can't make the same mistakes as regular players, thus I will have to deny this application Don't get dissuaded though, work on yourself and I suggest making an application at a later date. Application denied, locking and archiving. -
[DENIED] Markus_DC's IAA application

This application is half-finished and you're completely new to the server, try again later. Locking and archiving. -
[mention]Conspiir[/mention] I don't see what's dickish about it exactly? This is a format that is done in Podcasts because it works the best in podcasts, I didn't say it is badly writen, I didn't say the author is a poo poo head, I said the format doesn't fit which in MY OPINION is true. And comparing it to reddit/discord/4chan stories isn't negative either, I STARTED playing the game because of these stories and I legitimately think someone could enjoy this and join the game, I just don't find the way it was writen appealing, more of frustrating to read, FOR ME Scripts are a part of a movie a very important part of a movie because with a bad script a good actor won't do much, but they're a PART, it is a good part don't get me wrong but it seems TO ME like a part of the whole. I'm not telling the OP to stop writing, I'm encouraging the OP in trying out a new format. Addendum: I have not listened to Welcome to Night Vale so my opinion is completely unbiased regarding the actual way it is writen, I just don't like the format.

No offense but this style really is suited for podcasts. This feels akin to reading a script to a movie, while our imagination can fill in a lot of the gaps the gift of the gab is still required for something like this, emphasis, articulation and tones are most likely what makes the podcast so great in the first place. It's essentially a comically done description of what we could consider an average round, it's akin to an extended reddit/4chan/discord story. I can see how this would work as a spoken podcast but not on paper.

„Hello, anyone there?“ echoed through the dark maintenance, the only response was clanking of pipes and constant hum of the ship. Azala turned around, satisfied with the results, it was nothing. Step-Step-Step-Step-Step-Step-Step. She froze in her tracks. Step-step. Azala slowly turned around, the dead eyes of a pig stared into her soul, a loud squeal drowned out the noise of her scream. A loud dubstep noise interrupted the scene as the headline flew into view. PIGHEAD 8: IN SPACE;NOONE CAN HEAR YOU SQUEAL Rated M for mature ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Erana’Weshi Xoqia couldn’t believe how shallow the trailer was on the 16th viewing. She waved goodbye to Un’gha B’uh-nga a comedian famous for his anti-PMC and anti-security sketches where he often compared them to apes. She liked him, sadly he had to beg her pardon as he had to make it to Phoenixport today. She sighed, she had to initiate another conversation, it would be socially uncouth of her to just stand there like a fence pole. With a confident stride she walked up to the nearest conversation involving a person she could recognize, Za’Akaix’Nyx Zo’ra, the vaurca who played a security officer in this shtick. “And then you like, get lost and can’t find your way there?” laughed a woman with red hair and a similarly crimson red dress. “Ya, it was hilarious, I just couldn’t keep myself from laughing,” continued another female, this one had a short blond bowl cut with a dress that looked like a brown refrigerator box, fashion. “I WAZZ lozzt,” said Nyx, awkwardly standing there with a glass of champagne which he was ignoring since the start, he stuck out like a sore thumb even in his fancy getup. The girls began to laugh, Nyx clacked his mandibles, confused. Erana drifted right past this crowd in one smooth movement making it seem like she wasn’t interested in this conversation at all, instead she decided to approach another. “Oh it wasn’t trrrouble for him at all, it was like, this charracterrr WAS Mikam, prrractically just copied Mikam into the scrrript,” Mikam Ar’Jargo, the cream colored Tajara mused to a Kochiba colored Njarir in a royally purple dress. “Oh S’rendarr, rreally?”, her interest seemed genuine, or she was a very good actress. “Why yes, Mikam would have done the same thing facing such a beast, the jourrrnal scene actually had to be rrreshot because Mikam, heh, accidentally disarrrrmed the Pigface actorrr since he didn’t know they started yet”. The Njarir flicked her ears, looking sideways at Mikam, “Wow, such bravery!” “Yeah it was no big d-“ Erana hoped nobody heard the near audible, ugh, she let out as she skimmed past them, the food table must be her next stop or else this move would look unnatural. She stopped next to Arenu, he was busy loading up his plate with food while Jahn DeFancy a famous critic was attempting to strike a conversation. “-but as I said, I think the portrayal of your character was extremely unrealistic, I mean what kind of person could be so shallow and dull?” he talked, wildly gesturing while Erana stopped next to them, grabbing a canapé while Arenu was busy trying to wrestle the sixth crab on his plate. “I mean the whole crew was ridiculously unresponsive, well besides the main characters but it still made no sense! It’s going to fail is what I tell you and you shouldn’t have bet your career on this flick!” he continued his rant, chowing down on some olives which he picked from the salad bowl. “Uh-uh,” responded Arenu, attempting to tie the crabs together with seaweed he got by unwrapping the sushi present on the table. Erana was starting to get desperate, captain Viatorem he must be at least somewhat interesting plus the gentleman speaking to him seemed educated enough! “As I said it’s all anti-human propaganda, the main character gets beaten by two cats and a bugman, while you as the captain of the ship, a human, go basically insane? It’s asinine how obvious the xeno pande-“ NOPE, thought Erana as she near spun in place, pretending she had forgotten something at the long table. Erana stood at the end of the long table, swirling the wine in her glass, contemplating how much would it offend people if she left this early without an excuse. Suddenly there came a tugging, as if someone grabbing, grabbing on her dress below. “Hey HoP, wassup?” Jaeger’s head peered from under the table, her hair previously done into a bun had come loose and her cheeks flushed with the color red as the wine took its effect on her. “Is pretty comfy down here, Tiller Komato is here too, but we ran outta drink, could chu hand me a bottle?” she asked, completely oblivious to her situation, it seemed nobody else had noticed her yet. “Stars Jaeger, y-“ started Erana looking down at Ashley, but Ashley simply smiled with a big stupid grin while someone burped from underneath the table. “Fuck it, move” finished Erana, grabbing a bottle and descending under the table to join Jaeger in a nice, peaceful conversation. // So I decided to put this silly thing here, while it isn't what you were expecting I found it much more entertaining than just describing boring action sequences over and over. THE DEPICTION OF CHARACTERS IN THIS FICTION ARE IN NO WAY, SHAPE OR FORM ACCURATE TO THE REAL REPRESANTATION OF THESE CHARACTERS IN GAME.

[Denied] DaBurs Head of Staff Application
Coalf replied to DaBurs's topic in Whitelist Applications Archives
It was decided that the application will be denied for now for the lack of feedback. Feel free to re-apply later. -
And they lived happily ever after until they didn't, the end. This was good, you managed to keep the reader interested and knowledgable about what was happening even though you completely left out majority of descriptions, simply letting us know what was happening through dialogue. The twist was something I gotta say, unexpected and out the left field, if there was a complaint it would be regarding the lack of foreshadowing making the twist seem unsatisfying. Otherwise I was fully pleased with the result, you maintained the emotionallity of Skrell yet managed to keep to them their limited linguical ability regarding Tau Ceti Basic. Good work.

Vro, I come off of what I see in game. If majority of Unathi go Unga I assume they all Unga. If all Vaurcae go Bunga I assume they all Bunga. So far I've only met drooling retards and borderline synthetics with a bug skin, so some emotion being shown was an actual suprise. And I don't mind the meaning, I understand what the story was supposed to convey, I'm saying you've made this what could be considered an amazing setup it feels like a prelude to something, like something is about to happen, the crisis, the part where the heroes journey begins. I mean I'm not against "Slice of life" literalature, I didn't say I didn't enjoy it, in fact I read it without getting bored and was somewhat interested in what's happening but in the end I was just dissapointed.
-
A first story and not a bad one either! While I'm not a fan of Vaurca I do like how they're potrayed as actual thinking and feeling things instead of drooling retards I meet on station, making me almost not want to slaughter them all. Almost. Otherwise it was a bit uninteresting to be honest, it seems more like a prequel to a longer story than anything, the setup is there but no punchline, no actual payoff no twist ending, just a stammer into nothingness. Writing style no critique nothing out of the ordinary, I did like the thinking/dialogue text having the same font as Vaurca communicate telepathically.

Alright previous message is lost so let's 2+2=4 - 3 is 1 quick maths this. Munks banned wasn't due to a single instance, it was due to repeated and continous breaches of the "Don't be a dick" rule and while Schev handled it about as well as Amy Schumer handles stand-up I stand-by with his decision on the weekban. Furthermore an appeal doesn't require a third party, why we don't mind it and even support it, it is ultimately between the banned and the banning staff as only they know what the ban was truly about, the fact that Munks didn't actually get what the ban was about and just decided to focus on how it was handled is reason enough to have it denied. On the actual forum topic, yes I agree it was nothing but a powerflex there was no need to lock the entire threat for a single issue. BUT On that warning you can't get to because it's broken (moved into the moderator bin so plebians can't view it) Fig.A Now such post could be shrugged off as a "Simple joke", yet you decided to post this in the thread of a DEMOTED AND PERMABANNED LORE WRITER FOR VAURCAE. The thread itself: https://forums.aurorastation.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=9169 While this instance was mishandled and I agree on that you should stop and consider that maybe not all of them are made out of personal bias but because of your attitude.

Eggcellent. Meow it looks presentable, you've changed the format, answered the questions and filled out the backstory and all aligning with the wiki. I find the content of the backstory to be a bit barren myself and for my tastes so I'd like to ask a few questions to elaborate. Like the criminal record, is it hidden along with the millitary record? And if not, what were the crimes? No need to elaborate just need the severity of them as NanoTrasen wouldn't be likely to hire serious criminals howerever desperate they might be. Otherwise I met a few of your characters and they were acceptible, nothing out of line, nothing memorable but nothing overly bad or horrible about them either. Plus you actually reworked it instead of just rewording. Overall not bad.
