Dea Tacita

Good point, I was just saying though. Just so he'd know

There's also already an Indian nation in the lore.

This game is the stuff of the gods. I have wasted many, many hours on it.

Redoing because I feel like I should share more than I did in my initial post. I'm 29, and, a Syrian Arab living in Israel. As I previously said, I'm nonalingual. The languages I speak being, in-order of learning them. Arabic, Hebrew, English, Chechen, Russian, Danish, Mandarin, the Gascon dialect of Occitain, and, Afrikaans . I've got Huntington's disease, and until recently was unable to speak due to an injury. Which I had minor surgery on to help, and am now going through speech therapy. Have a degree in Behavioral psychology from the University of Haifa. Only instrument I know how to play is the Ocarina, and I can only play like 3 songs. annnd That's all the interesting stuffs.

Caaaause we're not all 'Muricans? We've got (atleast) Turks, Israelis and Canadians on here. Agreeing whole-heartedly with Rus'teh on this one.

Basic Information Byond Account: Dea Tacita Character Name(s): Atalanta Cascadia, Zelda Hyvarinen, Fortuna Octavianus, Bat-Tziyon Sobol, Aludra Buthaynah, Carthage Graham, Farai Themba, Temple Zorion, Ursula Krijger, Viisi Sonhadra, Nova Vita, Io Kaas, Gwawrddyd Anwyl and Sujal Ho'ti. AI Name(s): None Preferred means of contact (specify a program/means, exact details can be requested/provided through private channels): Skype preferably Age: 29 Timezone: GMT +2 When are you on Aurora?: Whenever I can be, though I have doctors appointments usually 2-3 times a week which take up a couple of hours Experience I’ve Moderated/Admined on, Aurora, Janus, Minerva, Athena and a number of other serves whose name escapes me. How long have you played SS13?: 10+ years How long have you played on Aurora: Almost a year I believe How much do you know about SS13 (Baystation build) game mechanics?: 99% of it, though I'm a little rusty Do you have any experience moderating for an SS13 server?: Extensive Have you ever been banned, and if so, how long and why?: Not on Aurora Personality Why do you play SS13?: Honestly, because I have a rather somber life (especially recently). SS-13 provides a somewhat more optimistic environment which contains people that I rather like more than most. It’s also a game that really doesn't have much of an equal, not for free anyway. Why do you play on Aurora?: Because of the previously mentioned awesome people that I’ve come to think of as my friends. That along with it being of the best places left to roleplay in. What do moderators do?: a Moderator’s job, at least in my experience is to provide a conducive environment for the type of experience that the playerbase is looking for, in this case roleplaying. By assisting players by providing any information that they need such as guides, or how to do something, or by moderating the player base itself and limiting activity that disrupts that environment such as an especially badly roleplayed character, or deliberate actions meant to disrupt that environment like “Griefing”. What does it mean to be a moderator for our server?: Moderating Aurora means helping a community that’s different than most other SS-13 Servers. One of the last great RP servers around, it is helping to provide an experience that people enjoy, and that people will remember. Why do you want to be a moderator?:Moderating Aurora means helping a community that’s different than most other SS-13 Servers. One of the last great RP servers around, it is helping to provide an experience that people enjoy, and that people will remember. What qualities do you possess that would make you a good moderator?:I want to be a moderator because Aurora means something to me, it’s the final great RP server in a series of disappointments which have gradually numbed me to SS-13, It’s an island full of welcoming and fun people in a sea of acid. I’ve been on SS-13 for longer than most people have, and Aurora’s never really had an equal, at least not to me. And It’s meaningful to me to be able to help keep that around, even if all it means is helping people have fun one night at a time. What qualities do you possess that would make you a good moderator?: Experience is likely my defining quality, though I also think I’m somewhat friendly, and to a degree professional. Admittedly I don’t particularly take criticism well, but I’m endeavoring to improve that. How well do you handle stress, anger, or insults?: I get as frustrated as anyone else who’s ever moderated, but I’d never allow that to spill over and yell at anyone or anything. Overall, I think I’d say I handle it decently and professionally Anything Else You Want to Add: I’ve moderated for Aurora before and it was a pleasant experience, in an amazing community which I sadly had to resign from. It’d be a joy to be allowed to go back to what I like doing ^_^

Not arguing with you, But Rad storms alone tend to flood Medbay due to the sheer amount of SSD people. And that doesn't really fuck the station, It's also a rather slow process to clear them up. As only 2 cryotubes are available and sleepers refuse to inject anti-tox if they're below certain health.

Yeah, I've had some fantastic RP situations with Vit before. And I'm more than confident that He'd be able to show his character's xenophobia in a more reasonable manner. All my +1s

Do it already duckie! Be the badass that you are and add even more cool shit.

I retired and i get a pensionish thingy, so I'm happy Oh...I thought by "Retired" you mean't layed off. It's a weird situation.

I retired and i get a pensionish thingy, so I'm happy

I've played on (atleast) Three servers with Kiwi, in all of which he's done rather decent roleplay consistently. +1 brah

Honestly, a guy covered in armor with a riot shield and baton that (presumably) hurts when he knocks the shit out of you with it is fairly scary. And the second picture isn't meant to be "Scary" it's just a soviet gas-mask design, likely to avoid getting blinded by their own tear-gas.

Totes agree with what everyone else has said. All my +1s

This. While Secret is a valid game play mode with a plethora of opportunities to have fun and RP in exciting ways. I simply like extended more, due to actually being allowed to do the job I signed up for instead of being dragged into damage control on one murder or another, completely voiding the reason I selected that job. As for benefits, Secret allows for (Generally) more exciting and random events that many players enjoy quite a bit, this can allow for amazing character development if done properly and can create beautiful situations of roleplaying. Extended is predictable, and perhaps that's what I like about it. There's no-one going to murder us for no reason, our characters are allowed to be normal, to develop as a normal human (Or Alien) being. To show who and what they are outside of stressful situations that put their lives in danger, to show how they act normally instead of when their lives are threatened.

Welp, honestly can't blame anyone for the comments made. They're all pretty much true.

FORGOTTEN!

Thanks! I really appreciate it!

Ckey/BYOND Username: Dea Tacita! Position Being Applied For (coder, mapper, spriter): Lore Dev Past Experiences/Knowledge: Was previously a Lore Dev here before I had to leave due to work/Medical stuffs. Examples of Past Work: Several Alien species posts I made on the old Forums http://auroraserver.freeforums.net/thread/701/minor-races Created the Kocasslani Worked on a great deal of the Tajara lore (Which has since been rewritten) along-side with Nik There's a bunch others but many of you guys are familiar with them already so I think it's redundant. Preferred Mode of Communication (Skype, Steam, etc.):Skype Additional Comments: I know I'm not that great of a lore-writer but I generally think I have decent ideas. But I do often ignore 100% realism in all components (Which other lore-writers are a lot better at doing.) Their editing has made some stuff I co-authored rather amazing

I generally don't use the random name generator. I spend hours looking for one I like on teh interwebs

Following an absence due to almost no available time, a growing amount of Apathy, and medical conditions. I've finally been "Retired" from my job and as such, have nothing but free time.... So.... I came back. Since I miss a bunch of yous guise <3

I will be leaving the server likely permanently. For one, I don't have the time for you guys anymore, partly health issues and partly job stuff. I also, just utterly don't feel like a part of the community anymore. It doesn't seem like the same Aurora community I fell in love with and I just don't feel like playing anymore. I am drained by my work and just don't feel like dealing with any of you. I didn't mean that last part in a negative way.

I miss you Majey

Considering the people we see on this server on a day to day basis. Perhaps explaining yourself would've been better, as would adding a surname.

Bark wouldn't be a legitimate name either, so it's not really helping your case.
