Dea Tacita

Yeah, I tried to set up a Starbound Server for Aurora awhile back But unfortunately my friend who let me use his server forgot about that and sold it D:

Interesting Idea No-one gets my characters though

I feel iffy on this subject honestly. And to be clear, this is my opinion, not that of the staff as a whole. Here's the thing, we're a Heavy Roleplaying server. Which means that people NEED to have a decent level of role playing ability to 'fit-in' I suppose. I'll agree that the quality of role playing is somewhat subjective, but there's a point when 90% of people will agree that Urist Mcbadass, the ex-syndie Space 'Nam hero is terrible at role playing. The conversation isn't about if Role play is subjective or not, it's about should the staff take active steps to root out people who stand out as particularly bad... my answer....In a way? We shouldn't hand-out bans left and right, being elitist assholes that want to keep the same 40 people on our server all the time and alienating EVERYONE else who joins. We should be a firm guiding hand of sorts, staff can (and will) help players seeking to improve their role play, and have-before given out suggestion, tips and hints towards those who stand out as abnormally bad at role playing. 99.99% of people have the capability of role playing. Role playing is a skill that is built up overtime to improve steadily, and I firmly believe that the vast majority of people who click "Join" can role play to a high enough quality to settle in perfectly fine, or can be helped to reach that quality. I think that the guiding principle of the server's populace just needs to be "Don't be a dick" and "Help each other". Doing that, we can integrate almost anyone into Aurora so that they might enjoy the great RP that I love here. There's always gonna be that 00.001% of people who just don't give a fuck though.

Application accepted Glory to Aurora

Application denied. Feel free to apply again, PM me and Tishina both for details asto why your application was denied.

Please keep posts on-topic. All off-topic posts will be deleted.

Like everyone else said, there's a news thread where you can post news. In addition to that, there's a war being planned in the background to make the background less static and actually have things happen it in that effect players. I actually drew inspiration from the Star-league for the first draft of the Sol Alliance.

As I've said on a number of other applications, you've described the IC purpose. I'll reiterate, the Purpose of a Head of staff, 1. Is to create an environment where people can actually roleplay and 2. Have fun (ofc). Organizing your department, keeping people from fucking around. Those're both IC duties of your character, not OOC responsibilities. I'm somewhat troubled that you'd describe this character as one who "Can maintain control". You've got quite a few notes for playing Victor as a sec officer who's beaten prisoners for minor reasons such as insulting you, along with a multitude of other issues. Another of my issues with this is that you seem to have a perpetual problem with powergaming/ganking. While individual punitive actions were taken for each of these events, a head of staff who power-games can not just break rules, but ruin rounds for many players. In addition to that, you've (Repeatedly) broken rules that you claimed you knew, which would indicate a disregard for Server rules, which isn't exactly ideal in a Whitelistee

Emphasis on OOC in this question, you described what is essentially their IC purpose. You have most everything on this, except that it's a priority for whitelisted players to create a situation where RP can successfully ensue. Other than that, it looks alright. I'll give you another day or two to get player feedback, and then make my decision.

There's a couple eastereggs on the map. Or atleast there used to be

I'm not trying to gang up on Him, but this is something that needs to be addressed. Normally staff would do it on their own if we noticed it, but Meow saw it first.

Yeah, Flavor texts are strictly objective documents. Yeah. This is essentially a poster-boy example of what not to do with flavor texts. You're subjective in your description and... I don't even know what to say about this For one, there's straight women, gay men, Tajara who don't find Humans attractive on the station. All this is saying is "YOU HAVE TO GLARE AT HER ASS AND THEN THINK A CERTAIN THING."

My only problem with this (One skull shares) is that the uniforms look distinctly metrocop. For one. It's 400 years in the future, I don't think security would look exactly the same as Chicago metro, and two, they're not cops, they're private security.

I have the Bot mod, but the game requires you have Beds for them. They won't use it, but you'll get the "Need more colonist beds" which interferes with recruiting colonists. Which annoyed me on my first colony, so I don't use them here.

I got immensely Bored and decided to take screens of my Colony on Rimworld, so here it is! http://i.imgur.com/o1CAkBq.jpg Weyland, the Rim-bound military outpost of the Aman-Ti empire on the far-rim.

I thought that was a Vacuum cleaner for a second.

I honestly find it kind of annoying.

Regs book man, recolor that too for completion's sake

To make this clear, it's an april fools joke. You can stop panicing

Let's keep this civil, It's hardly an argument. The point of forums is to facilitate the discussion of topics by our community in a civil manner, remember that.

I'm just going to say that I desperately want to keep this thread on-track, because it IS an important issue. People have as of recently become .... hostile for lack of a better, non-offensive word. It's depressing, it's unnecessary and it's quite frankly immature at some points. The vast majority of us really, really like Aurora. And I don't want Aurora to degenerate into a mass of asshats screaming at each other because someone's character accidentally flashed someone else's character. Be reasonable, don't just decide to shit all over someone's day because you don't like them.

It's a good thing Protopistols aren't standard issue then isn't it? The standard-issue weapons (Laser Rifle, carbine, pistol) Don't pop windows.

I'm not against having Ballistic weaponry on-hand, but I don't think it should be standard-issue. I think it'd be interesting to have in the armory, but the primary reason energy weapons are preferred is that they tend to not vent the station when you miss and fuck-up that window.

Resolved, Locking and archiving.

If you read through my earlier comments. I told Starfish that IF he applied again, we'd accept it.
