This is such a weird and honestly bad take that I dont even know how to start and I will not subject myself to others putting words in my mouth any longer in this thread. Besides the first quote I have said nothing what you brought forward nor do I share your view on it, especially the prosthetic limbs. Of course it's fine to have your opinion on prosthetic limbs but not everyone shares that. You and OP are the only ones who keep bringing up the "strawman snowflake" argument as well and at this point it's tiring.

I would really appreciate it you would not put words in my mouth or automatically assume some malicious intent behind what I wrote. I was saying, that you actively subscribe to playing a disabled character, when you create one. This should have some impact to how you play the game - because this is a video game. Your argument is like saying that our combat is shit because you dont go down with one hit from any pistol or rifle. I have also not, with a single word, said that attempting such a "middle ground" as you call it, would be "boring" and "bad". This is all your interpretation of what I wrote. I don't think you intended it but you gave a perfect argument against these gloves: there is a plethora of already available things in-lore to help with disabled people, mute ones too, so why would these gloves be a thing when there are already established things to remedy muteness? I dont have anything to say about your last point because I neither care about the "mute character boom from five years ago" nor is it relevant in any way here.

Nah man. This sounds just like a way to circumvent the job accessibility stuff or whatever the name is. You are actively subscribing to playing a disabled character and to the problems and hurdles that come with it. If you dont want to deal with that then just don't play a disabled character. Just being able to negate it is honestly boring - just as universal translators are and shouldnt be a thing as well.

Or just make the role more fun (however that will be) instead of stripping down more and more jobs and alt-titles. We are a HRP setting - we all subscribed to that when we started playing here.

Obligatory "it doesnt make sense at all no matter how much you bend your mind" comment here.

I was merely saying that it might need a different prefix, not that this is a bad suggestion

this is probably the one reason you shouldnt vote for dismissal with. if both serve the same function but it is just a fluff title (like chef and cook) then it should be added. the problem is that they do NOT have the same duties (one digs, one researches)

OOC action will be taken in this case. Closing.

The feature will not work as it is suggested, it would need a prefix that is not as common as the currently used language prefixes (,number) since numbers and commata are too easily typed in sentences, so, you could accidentally type in a different language. Besides that a good suggestion

Hepatica is a dear friend of mine so my opinion is biased. I have known her for a long time now, and ever since her return from the land of the banned I have not had a single bad interaction with her new characters as well. Despite my bias I firmly believe that she is more than capable to play good command. An easy +1 and worthy of a trial.

Holy shit I have been looking for something like that for weeks now. I didnt know /tg/ has it. You are doing god's work

I think this was suggested before in some capacity and it was rejected because third party ship characters are not meant to be "permanent" characters or something like that

Just make sure to add prooper display stands with plaques on them you can write on what you see inside.

While a buffet sounds cool it kind of isolates the chef. Interacting with people is kind of THE RP source for chefs. Maybe as an addition/alternative? Problem is the space down there is very limited (painful memories of my kitchen remodel) so I am not sure where to put this.

Liking this a lot.....

Bridge Crew is Command Support, not service

TO: Crew of the SCCV Horizon FROM: Human Resources, Central Command SUBJECT: DECORATION REPORT -------------------- Body: Dear valued employees, it is with a great honour, that I was chosen to bring you this message. You all knew, that the journey on the Horizon would not be an easy one, when you all signed up and embarked on it almost 9 months ago. Yet some situations are out of the ordinary, even for the mission you were given. The day of the 10th of December 2464 was one of these days. You all were called to assist a very dangerous situation, a situation none of you were expecting, a situation Command never wanted to put you in. Yet you heeded the call and did more than we could have ever imagined. The efforts of every single one of you on this day contributed to the outcome you achieved, but naturally some of you were fortunate enough to just be in the right place at the right time. This report and announcement serves as a way to make known these, who went above and beyond their duties, remaining brave and steadfest and putting their personal safety second. Central Command wishes to recognize the efforts of these crewmembers specifically and award them appropiately: The crew in question are: Asher, Miner: Awarded the Medal of Merit, Second Class, for receiving extensive damage while fending off attacking Solarian Marines, on a hostile ship, which were both heavily armed and determined to stop him and his colleagues from the defusal of a dangerous warhead. Ka’Akaix’Sotis C’thur, Xenoarcheologist: Awarded the Medal of Merit, Second Class, for disarming a dangerous warhead, while under heavy fire of Solarian Marines on a hostile ship, which were both heavily armed and determined to prevent his successful defusal of a phoron-based warhead of unknown destructional force. And for the first time since it's endowment, crewmember: Aaila Abdul-Ghani, Atmospheric Technician is awarded our highest decoration, the Miranda Cross (POSTHUMOUS), for making the ultimate sacrifice and giving her life while fending off attacking Solarian Marines on a hostile ship. Her determination and willpower ensured the successful defusal of the phoron warhead, as well as the survival of her colleagues, all while facing heavy fire from highly trained soldiers. Baron and Baroness Abdul-Ghani will receive the decoration in their daughter's name. There are others who have distinguished themselves and will receive a mention in despatches. A full and complete list about the names of them will be submitted soon after the announcement of this report. We invite all crew who are not scheduled to work to attend the ceremony on the 23rd of December. More information about this can be found here on the NTNet. -------------------- DTG: 19-12:31-TAU CETI STANDARD-12-2464 SIGN: Office of the Central Command Internal Affairs Bureau Supervisor

No thanks, as for the reasons Faye said

It is an interesting concept to take ghost role characters and use them as application characters - but I personally do not like this take. I am upfront and say I know none of your characters (at least by name) so I dont know how you define "established" but third party characters getting hired by NT/SCC is a bit of a stretch, considering where we are on the star map. But that's only my take on that. Regarding the characters themselves I identified a few problems with your application. As a few people recently, you throw in things but dont really explain what they mean for the character. If you claim these characters to be well established, I expect a lot more here. Let's begin: Regarding Kharah Zakhrran: You mention the Temple of the Holy Blessed Suns and that she was raised in a "conservative S'rand'marr household". What does this mean for her? What does she think about religion in general? She is a "quarter noble" (so that already excludes her being a "normal" Hharar), was born "around the turn of the century" (making her ~60 today) and her grandmother was also a noble before the revolution, but that was not recognized for some reason. You either worded this strangely or your entire timeline is pretty wrong. Before dissecting it further I give you the chance to correct me if I misunderstood it. What do you mean with she "joined the PRA"? If she lived near Sana Sahira she just lived in the People's Republic (from 2433 onwards, at least) - I dont know what you mean with "joining" the current global state (after the First Revolution). Now to her military career and here it gets really weird. Kharah, as stated is/was(??) a member of the Kosmostrelki. First - if she dislikes/hates Hadiism how did she fool her way to be a Kosmostrelki? A very specialized and quality branch of the armed forces? How did she achieve this as a woman, no less? After four years of military service (where she apparently only did cleaning and cooking) she "moved to Trizar in the DPRA" to get educated. The three major powers on Adhomai arent really best friends so migrating to and from one of those states is not just showing your passport and filling out a form to move somewhere else. How did she do it? Did she had to do it covertly? Why the DPRA and not the NKA, when she is a (basically unrecognized) noble or at least with noble blood in her? As I said I may have misunderstood your "Born in at the turn of the century [...]" I will leave it at that. If I didn't misunderstood it then I have quite a few more things to point out. Regarding Sa'adia Khadirr: She was "raised in [the] FTC on Himeo during her youth" so I assume she was either born in the 2420's or shortly before so she probably never saw or experienced much of Adhomai. Fine, yet especially for young Tajara, the entirety of Volin's plan is very abstracted - since its for a place they dont know or been to really. It is still a great topic for himean Tajara, what does Sa'adia think about it? You mention she was raised in a "safe, if somewhat radical" state. Can you explain what you mean? Himeo/the Free Tajara Council, especially during it's founding years was far from safe - they were basically enemies with everyone and fighting was intense. If I didnt misunderstood your timeline here either she was also part of the exodus to Crevus? How did this event shape her? Himeo is known for its heavy industry, so her choice of work is fine, but how was her life on Himeo? The FTC still brought their culture with them, what religion does she follow, what are her views on Adhomai, who were even her parents? And so on. Regarding D'jed Sebek'khu: This character, as you described it is as basic as it can get. We know next to nothing about him, but even if, application characters (as far as my last knowledge about it goes) cannot be "non-Adhomai" characters. Meaning they have to be born and at least experienced some culture and history on Adhomai to be applicable for a whitelist character. This may have changed. But even then it is a basic criminal Zhan concept that doesnt need any lore kowledge at all. Why he especially only dislikes the PRA because of discrimination also goes above my head, the NKA is at least equally bad. Alas, this character, due to the mentioned reason should be disregarded entirely. To come to a close, I dont think you haven't read the lore - I just think you sadly haven't read it very well. I would recommend you to read important lore bits thoroughly again and to create a new, unique and thought-out character for your application, instead of three half-baked ghost role characters, because none of the three are convincing.
