We do have a database though. Pretty sure this can be done. I really like the idea regardless, but it's gonna be real funny when the sec mains use 'Grizzled Voice'.

This is unnecessarily hostile. I've been courteous to you and I've laid out my facts in an objective manner. I've not gotten mad throughout this complaint. I ask you do the same, if you want a good discussion. I will not argue something that has already been handled by an admin. I only brought up that round as evidence of there being a problem, considering the ticket WAS handled. As such, this is not really a reply to the complaint, nor does it help your case. Once again, you're relying on people seeing your outbursts and getting pity points. I don't like that.

Unlike you, I cannot say I've met a worse HoS recently. Most people I've spoken to about Lin end up saying that they don't want to play security under them and just skip the round. Which is unfortunate, but this is the case when the player plays HoS for 10+ hours at a time. Every other HoS I've seen in recent times has outclassed them by far and large, simply because of effective communication and because they don't do the things I said Lin Dyslioth does in this complaint. This is a complaint and I'm outlining why I think the character should not be allowed to be in a command position. If you looked into my complaint for more than five seconds and reversed what I said, you would find what I think is wrong. This is an issue of their validhunty behaviour and Lin Dyslioth's insane tendencies IC. The solution is to not make Lin Dyslioth a HoS. It is that simple. Saying I shouldn't be complaining in a complaint is... pretty funny.

"In the end it's a game" is not a valid argument against a complaint. I'm arguing for making a character unable to be a HoS for the betterment of the game. If that's seriously your only argument, perhaps the original complaint is right.

I have already provided an example of this exact thing happening: the merc round she was punished in. Clearly, if she was punished, there is an issue. I wouldn't have made this complaint if that behaviour had stopped, which is why I provided another round ID where the exact same thing happens. @Cnaym, I think you misunderstand - I provide the round IDs, the admins provide the logs. I do not have any way to get logs as a player, because I do not save them and my own logs do not encompass the whole situation. Posting your own logs is downright deceptive and a shitty way of furthering an argument with subjective evidence, so please don't try to get me to do something like that, thank you. Natcula, I am in all honesty not interested in hearing a sob story. I'm not here shitting on you as a player. Everything I have said is what I have observed about your character with the evidence needed for the admins to reach a conclusion. I've not called you garbage, I've not called you a shithead, nor have I ever insulted you. There is no reason for you to go off on me like that. I do not appreciate trying to sway my argument with what is essentially just a sob story. I could not care less about people harassing you, I would have made this complaint regardless. Considering you won't be saying anything anymore, it'd be pointless to reply to you. Are you seriously implying I made a complaint because I have an OOC grudge? This is downright grasping at straws. I have provided objective evidence, including an entire round ID and the events from my side of the story - how is this an OOC grudge? If I had an OOC grudge I wouldn't have made a complaint in the first place, because I wouldn't have had hard evidence. The latter half of what you just posted makes absolutely no sense anyways. Of course, if I complain about the character, and the character vanishes and gets replaced by a better one, why would I complain? I can flip your own style of argument around too: your argument seems to be one you made purely because your friend's standing on hot coal. A metabuddy grudge, perhaps? I'm pretty sure you don't like being accused of having a metaclique, so keep that in mind. In addition, please don't try to undermine my complaint based on what others that are not me say. You can't go and say "This complaint has flipped its entire premise!" then the original poster hasn't actually made a post acknowledging what someone else says as true. I gave proof - the round IDs. I need nothing other than logs to prove my point. For the reason, see above. Note: "He did it, so I can do it!" is not a valid excuse to play a completely nuts head of security.

BYOND Key: MattAtlas Game ID: Not applicable - this is a complaint about overall behaviour on the character and player. Player Byond Key/Character name: Lin Dyslioth, MissNatcula Staff involved: None. Reason for complaint: Unreasonable character that should not be in a head of staff position, let alone be allowed to exist as is. To understand this complaint, you must understand the typical round that Lin plays in. Any antagonist whose gimmick does not entirely revolve around Lin gets immediately shutdown by her - be it via profusely denying their gimmick or immediately having them annihilated on the spot. This is extremely validhunty behaviour that, to my knowledge, is explained as her character being this way, which is absolutely unacceptable. I've had this described to me as "if they don't get the spotlight, they go nuts ICly" - which is very true, because this is exactly what has happened and keeps happening as long as this character keeps being allowed to be this way. Lin oftentimes takes completely unreasonable courses of action to shutdown antags. Prime example: b2-ce0j, where they almost went chasing an armed antag out of the bridge with a softsuit on, which didn't happen only because security pleaded her to. Later in the round, they armed themselves with a hazard hardsuit and every single weapon in the armoury except a shotgun with about three officers on-shift to focus on taking down the antag alone. This was all because the spotlight was not on her. This behaviour completely changes when they're made a hostage or the antag's gimmick revolves around them. A character that behaves this way, and is justified as this being a character trait, should not be allowed. I have been told that this is their character's behaviour. Delving more into their issues as a player, it can be very easily noticed how much their validhunting tendencies show themselves in the average round. Very often they'll use the excuse of "I'm implanted and therefore I would die for Nanotrasen" to shut down many antagonists - they use their role as head of security to use the armoury for themselves rather than actually coordinate the department. This is not what heads of staff should be about, and I refuse to believe that someone who chooses to behave this way should be allowed to hold, let alone GET, a head of staff whitelist. Did you attempt to adminhelp the issue at the time? If so, what was the known action taken by administration/moderation? It was not ahelped. This is the culmination of many rounds of complaints. Approximate Date/Time: Unapplicable. This complaint is about total character behaviour.

yes +1 he a good man and i don't think he'll clash with staff anymore.

I had my doubts about you. I remember when I saw you yell "I WILL BATON RUSH" at a few mercs. When I saw this application I thought you'd just have been denied. You weren't, and I'm glad you weren't. You turned your reputation around and you were a DAMN FINE HoS today. Hell, I liked you more than most. You have my support, bud.

will derelict survivors ever happen?

CCIA Staff Application Basic Information Byond key: - MattAtlas Character names: - https://i.imgur.com/smuDVCx.png , my most played ones are Lelyl Kerei'Velan and Emily Cress. Age: - 17 Timezone: - GMT+2 What times are you most available?: - Anytime from 11 AM to 9 PM in my timezone, so basically the entire afternoon and some of the evening. Experience How long have you played SS13?: - Three years. How long have you played on Aurora?: - Three-ish years, with a long break in-between. How active on the forums, discord and/or server are you? - Not very active on the forums, since I don't do much there. I browse the discord daily. I'm getting my activity up on the server, but I'm trying not to overplay the game, so as to not get burnt out again. I dislike playing on lowpop, so I often lobbysit until there's a good pop to play in. Have you ever been banned, and if so, how long and why?: - No. Have you ever volunteered as moderation staff for any other servers, SS13 or otherwise?: - I was a moderator then secondary admin here. I was a trial moderator on CM for a short amount of time. Do you have any other experience that you believe would be relevant to a position in the CCIA?: - I was an admin and sometimes assisted CCIA or took a look at what they were doing. Otherwise, no. Personality Why do you want to join the CCIA?: - It would be a nice change of pace and I've always been interested in applying, as shown by my moderator application. I'd be able to help the server with the IR backlog and I'd like to completely get rid of the trashtalk surrounding CCIA, as I told Lancer yesterday. In addition, being able to RP a CCIAA has always been very interesting from my perspective, as I initially intended to apply for CCIA rather than moderation staff, but ended up on the latter. What do you think are the most important qualities for a CCIA Agent to possess?: - You must be impartial, since you're expected to solve reports fairly. You must have good knowledge of station directives and corporate regulations, including how they're applied. You must be able to prioritize the enjoyment of the server at large when answering faxes, due to how they can make or break a round very easily. You need to know the round flow to know how to make it better. What do you think the purpose of a CCIA Agent is in an ongoing round?: - Faxes are a very important part of why being a head of staff can be enjoyable, and also serve to make the world feel alive, in a way. Getting an answer from CC has always been kind of exciting to many people. In addition, faxes can indirectly assist newer heads of staff with what decisions they can take - lastly, faxes can improve the round by creating more interactions with antagonists, assisting their gimmicks and so on. What do you think the purpose of a CCIA Agent is outside of the server?: - Consequences having post-round impacts is a large part of why people like Aurora. The CCIA are integral to this because of the whole IR system - they're what make crimes have consequences IC, and can give characters unique roleplay avenues via interviews. In addition, IRs are vital as post-round IC punishments when something isn't an OOC rulebreak and the CCIA are instrumental for them to exist. This system is trusted because the CCIA are expected to review cases impartially. How do you handle stress?: - I was an admin. I handle stress fine. How well do you work autonomously?: - I don't need oversight to work, I would say I'm a good independent worker. Additional Notes: - lancer has the gay

Notice that I said "have to", not "can use". The ERT is perfectly capable of not using tactics and pressing LMB in a straight line at the problem. Hell, I've done it before. I just turn my brain off if I get ERT and it works anyways. The barrier is there to facilitate interaction and allow for shit that wouldn't happen at all with the ERT (arming the crew up, etc etc), which can make a better story in the end.

I agree with this, as someone who used to hate the TCFL's concept it grew on me. They're pretty cool, and having to use tactics to win isn't necessarily bad. TCFL can still bring closure to a round, mind you, the difference is in the unga-bunganess.

I'll do the former, then.

If this is a thing, then I would not object to keeping the application up. I thought from what Karolis said that trial projects were not really s thing.

Actually, I might have posted this somewhat prematurely. I'm going to ask that this is retracted for the time being.

I'm not a developer on CM. I retired at the end of April. I became a developer at the end of December. That changelog is not the full changelog and only goes down to April. This application is also not a joke. https://github.com/NonQueueingMatt

Ckey/BYOND Username: MattAtlas Discord Name: mattatlas#1523 Position Being Applied For: Coder Past Experiences/Knowledge: https://cm-ss13.com/changelog/ Examples of Past Work: Anything you can find on the CM changelog. My biggest projects there have been backend stuff - like, at one point, assisting with porting stoned MC, or fixing a particularly nasty pipe disappearance bug. I also worked on a few features like the xenomorph strains, but most of my work there has been balance stuff. I have been getting more familiar with more modern code the past few months (yes, most of CM's code is quite ancient) and I would say I'm decently confident in my DM capabilities. My biggest blunder, to date, is probably the autopunctuation that I fucked up two times in a row. Oops. Additional Comments: The main reason I apply is because I lack the creativity for projects and I'd like a bigger voice at the table for certain things. I work much better under an unified goal.
