Reporting Personnel: Meria Volvalaad Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Captain Game ID: b9Y-daxp Personnel Involved: Bjorn Agni-son, Scientist, Offender Sam Chalgre, Roboticist, Offender Que Tup'Xequal'Valurex, Head of Security, Witness Xiao Zemin, Research Director, Witness Meria Volvalaad, Captain, Witness Time of Incident: Around 20:00 Real Time: About 4:40 PM GMT-6 Location of Incident: NSS Aurora Nature of Incident: [ ] - Workplace Hazard [ ] - Accident/Injury [ ] - Destruction of Property [ ] - Neglect of Duty [ ] - Harassment [ ] - Assault [ ] - Misconduct [X] - Other Stealing of the Research Shuttle, disobeying Command orders. Overview of the Incident: Towards the end of a shift, an expedition team led by Xiao Zemin returned from some site. This team included many members of science, including Bjorn Agni-son, and Sam Chalgre. When the expedition returned, it was stated that they wished to assemble a team to check to see if there were survivors within the cryo pods of the away site, some derelict station. It is important to note that when I told them that, considering the transfer, there was no point in mounting some rescue mission. Instead, I would inform Central of the situation, and if they so chose to do so, could send a team to check for survivors, or more likely, inform whomever owned the station instead so they could send a team to see if there were truly any survivors. Naturally, Sam Chalgre seemed quite displeased about this. So, while I was conversing with Xiao Zemin, Sam Chalgre and Bjorn Agni-son stole the shuttle on their own prerogative, armed with weaponry from both the armory locker as well as bolt action rifles purchased from cargo in clear defiance of my orders. Intent on playing hero, the two failed spectacularly as the shuttle was recalled back to the Aurora, the two injuring themselves in the process as they attempted to leave the shuttle. When they returned, both were apprehended by the Commander and by security force, Sam Chalgre needing medical attention as a result. Without mentioning the clear disregard for their own personal safety, disregard for my direct orders, and thinking that they can steal an entire shuttle belonging to the company for their own use, they also wholly disregarded any and all resources belonging to Nanotrasen, namely the phoron fuel required to operate the shuttle, completely wasted on their childish act of defiance. Submitted Evidence: ((As the round was ending I did not have the chance to screenshot everything, however my Captain had the away site waiver on her person at the end of the round)) Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why?: I was the highest ranking authority on station. Transfer prevented me from taking any further action aside from detainment against the two. Actions taken: They were detained for transfer to Odin, but the transfer shuttle had long since left. Additional Notes: I cannot stress the importance of, during a galaxy wide phoron shortage, the absolute buffoonery of their actions causing a large waste of phoron marked specifically for scientific expeditions, not wanton, foolhardy rescue missions.

It doesn't make sense to do this. Science sub level is designed the way it is with the thought in mind that if something terrible happens, be it a horrid anomaly from xenoarchaeology, some kind of containment breach in xenobiology, or an outbreak in xenobotany, that the sub level can be safely locked down in a variety of ways, and the only ways out are the elevator, which can be secured, or going out through space, which, no matter what you do that's always going to be an option on a space station. Looking at this from a purely in universe perspective, they would never, ever, EVER remove the blast doors from xenobotany, especially not with the chance of a kois outbreak present, let alone something worse, and they wouldn't add an easy access ladder incase some worst case scenario happened in any one of those departments, which is always a possibility,, not even factoring in antags, in the Aurora SS13 universe.

I have to agree with Schwann on this, very droopy, not a fan of that. It looks very, very strange as a result

I think Head of Security's should absolutely know about the Nuke. I wouldn't trust a single Chief Engineer with this knowledge, though. Not even a little bit. I don't think the CMO needs to know either. An argument could be made for the Research Director, BUT I think Research Directors should have a mind shield as well, aside from the fact that they're expected to be trusted with all of the Aurora's research, they are suppose to be one of the most important staff aboard a research station. I think the Head of Security, Captain, and Research Director should know, and the Research Director should be mind shielded to prevent that knowledge from leaking out in a worst case scenario of their kidnapping or someone trying to get information out of them via some form of mind manipulation. The Head of Personnel doesn't need to know either, they're just a glorified paper pusher.

It's the most low RP game mode conceivable on a High RP server. It's not worth the 2 rounds that were good out of the trillion that were not. Remove wizard, remove magistake, and do what we did with malf AI. Replace them with something new, like Burglars. Pleeease.

+1, Shen has always done a great job with xeno characters, their RP is great and they are a wonderful person. I'm sure they'd do great with a vaurca whitelist

I have literally been point blank hit by a frag grenade with no armor on and walked away from it icly. Laughable to call them instakill. Other explosive devices such as c4, welding tanks, and bombs, are far easier to play around then an ion one tapping you or an emp being thrown at your feet and detonating before you can properly react.

+1, IPCs are practically unplayable as antag, which only inhibits the RP potential that could come from it. I love this idea, however. I have one, and only one, concern. Exosuits. We recently had a worm event in which robotics spammed out five exosuits, four of which I believe were warmachines built for combat. Now, naturally the worms would not have been able to emp them anyway, AND robotics has been nerfed recently as well, that being said, it is still not impossible, nor even difficult, to spam out combat exosuits as things currently stand, even without materials. While they would be quite weak, I admit, it could still be very, very hard to deal with. I think robotics weaponry should be nerfed to require materials other then glass and steel, as currently the laser canon and mounted machine gun only require the base materials. While I don't think exosuits should be something you look at and go "yeah lets just sneeze on it and its done", I do not want to see two combat roboticists rushing into a fight with two exosuits and gunning down antags.

+1. Cult in it's current state is bland and boring, I would love something dramatic and cinematic like this.

@MEDTECH You've been doing a good job so far and I can tell you care about improving and bettering yourself as a Command player. I forgot to put it above, but I meant to give you a +1 as well. Don't worry about the fax issue, just wanted to make sure you knew the situation with it, maaany newer command players struggle with faxing properly at first.

You've been doing a decent job as Command, and while there are some things I believe you need to improve at, such as relations with coworkers, communication to both your staff and command, but more then anything, faxing. Learn how to properly fax, be it icly or oocly. When giving a situation report to Central, use the situation report fax, not general fax. Don't use cursive, and always make sure the fax actually sent. There have been times where you've said you sent a fax but we didn't receive one, or you sent a fax, got an "improper fax format" message, but didn't bother to even acknowledge it or attempt to send a fixed fax. I believe you can keep improving yourself as command and will make a great command player eventually so long as you keep an open mind to criticism and keep learning in the command role.

Hello, Director! +1. I don't need to say anything that hasn't already been said, they have my full confidence.

+1, I'm sure Robotic Potato will do great in a position of command, they've always proven themselves to be a good person to interact with both icly and oocly, and their roleplay quality is quite good

I agree with pretty much everything everyone else has said, +1

Depends on the role, if I'm in round and another CCIA agent can handle it, then that's that. If not, and it's an important enough fax that I need to respond to it, I will do what I often do when I need to go afk, I head to a bathroom, into a locker, or someplace where I can be alone and locked away to take a moment to respond to the fax. I misunderstood what Nienna was asking, which has been made clear to me in DMs. I believe I could handle faxes regarding antag gimmicks very well. I like to think I'm quite good at furthering antag gimmicks when presented with them, just recently infact I was given clearance to early respawn to help a wiz gimmick that would have ended at about 1:30ish, joined as Captain and caused the round to go on for another hour along with the gimmick that many people were involved in.

Yes, absolutely. I am a very reclusive person, and have never felt the need to go out of my way to interact with the community as a whole but if I had a staff position I would attempt to be more involved with the community as a whole, as I believe that is what staff should do.

CCIA Staff Application Basic Information Byond key: Hepatica01 Character names: https://imgur.com/a/FoXAq0M Age: 24 Timezone: Central Daylight Time GMT-5 What times are you most available?: It fluctuates wildly due to my insomnia and other sleeping issues. Sometimes I am available all night, sometimes I am available all day. Experience How long have you played SS13?: Five to six years How long have you played on Aurora?: Five to six years How active on the forums, discord and/or server are you? Not too active on the forums, I'm not active in any of the official discords, I am very active on the server more often then not. Have you ever been banned, and if so, how long and why?: I have not Have you ever volunteered as moderation staff for any other servers, SS13 or otherwise?: Seven or eight years ago, some GMOD servers, as well as one discord community server. Do you have any other experience that you believe would be relevant to a position in the CCIA?: No Personality Why do you want to join the CCIA?: I rarely see more then one or two CCIA staff online, and it seems they could use the help these days, both with handling somethings in round at times, as well as handling IRs. What do you think are the most important qualities for a CCIA Agent to possess?: The capability of being unbiased, especially when dealing with friends in things such as incident reports, and the ability to forward on-going gimmicks in a round, or at least not to negatively impact them, in the form of fax responses. What do you think the purpose of a CCIA Agent is in an ongoing round?: To respond to faxes in a manner that pushes the round forward instead of halting it in it's tracks. What do you think the purpose of a CCIA Agent is outside of the server?: To handle incident reports, and the multitude of things that come with that such as messaging people on the forums or discord, collecting evidence, and etc. How do you handle stress?: Not the best. I wouldn't even say well. However, in the stressful moment, I can handle it and save any frustration, anxiety, or whatever other feeling until after the stressful moment has passed. Then, as I am only human, I will vent out my stress and get over it pretty quickly, usually. How well do you work autonomously?: I am extremely good at being told what to do, the offset of which being that I'm not the best when left to my own devices. However, after learning the process for things and what is expected of me, I am certain I could handle whatever would need to be handled without the direction of others. Additional Notes: I'm not perfect. Tt is not uncommon for me to make mistakes. However I will always admit to a mistake I've made, I have no issue accepting blame for mistakes made, nor apologizing for them afterwards. My point being, I can't promise I'll be perfect in the role, but I can promise I'll try my best.

True is a great person and roleplayer, enjoyable to interact with ICly and OOCly. I'm sure they'd be able to make a great skrell. +1

I've known Danse for awhile, he'll do just fine with a command whitelist I'm sure. +1
