I like this idea a lot. It fits as a simulation lore wise (especially since we've done this before) and it solves the blatant issue of infrequent ship combat plaguing new BC/Xo/Captain players. It's a shame to have so many ship guns and cool things and not use them because it simply doesn't make sense for some random pirate to go FUCK IT and launch a flak barrage at a ship 20x its size. Plus we'd actually get to use the battleship sprite that is in the overmap ships dmi.

Hi! Given this is a zippo, it will probably be fine, but you do need to have it named something a little more character specific as the name Nralakk Zippo is very generic and could just be mistaken as a loadout tem or something.

As someone that plays medical, it really doesn't feel bloated. In fact I think the four roles we have works perfectly fine. I really don't understand why people keep coming in to try and merge all the roles together so it just winds up as eight or more people doing the same exact thing. THAT would make the department feel bloated. Beyond that, I echo Sophie's reasoning. Not a single time have I ever felt the removal of roles benefitted the roleplay environment even slightly (except some of the engineering ones and the two dif phys titles, the electricians that refused to set the engine boiled my blood). All it does is blob everything together and make it all samey and boring. Big -1

You saw someone in a red suit walk into medical and immediately jumped on them. This is because you know OOCly that a red suit is usually only something antags get a hold of, which you then used as justification to call backup on them. You then said they were possibly armed because you know antags can buy firearms. Saying you did it because they had "clothing that could conceal weaponry" is not a justification because the same could apply to basically everybody on the ship. You saw red suit, you followed them, and called backup because you knew they were an antag. There was not really another IC reason to justify this as they had not done anything prior to suggest they were armed. You do infact have a note on metagaming a changeling, meaning you have absolutely been talked to in the past about this, hence why it is a ban.

As someone who plays BC quite a lot, I think the pacman maze of hazards errs more on tedious than mechanically interesting. It can take fucking DECADES to reach a spot and even then there is no guarantee you will actually find what you are looking for anyway, as the bearings you get at roundstart get pretty hard to track when you have to go halfway across the map because four zipcodes worth of carp are having a convention next to the ship roundstart. I think two ways to improve this is to make it so more gaps appear in hazards for the ship to traverse through or, alternatively, making the scan generated at round start repeatable so you can get up to date bearings on locations. I don't think it would be too terrible to revert them back to what they were before either should those not really work. It would just mean flying into hazards is less common, though it would definitely mean more third party ship interaction. I've tried to use these twice and both times they didn't move from the tile the horizon was on and just stayed in place, not scanning anything. I also think it should take less time to scan objects in general. It can take a REALLY long time if you are far away enough (not on top of the object)

The big problem here is that your behavior has not improved very much since the ban from what I can see. Multiple bans and more notes to boot regarding security play (which typically speaks to how your antag play would be) and iirc you have only been back playing the game for a few days. Sorry, but I am not confident in lifting this ban until you show a substantial amount of time with improved behavior. Appeal Denied.

I'm willing to lift this ban given its been a while and I think you are sincere. Will lift it later today when I log on. But really wtf do you think PBing someone in the face five times with any gun is going to do butter

Really the big nail in the coffin here was the fact that you did it, and then immediately DC'd the moment you got captured. The DC is what made me ban you. Almost your entire note history - including another ban by the way - is based around you going SSD and just flat DCing without using cryo. I will lift this ban, but understand that you are basically out of chances when it comes to just leaving. I will lift it later today when I log on.

Stuff like this is the bane of the pharmacy-less medical. One time I had someone wait for over half an hour to fix their ribs purely because they had a lot of brute trauma. Nothing else was wrong with them. It was probably the most boring thing imaginable for them. Getting something to reduce or remove this wait would be great. Maybe bones don't rebreak upon fixing when past the damage threshold but any MORE damage when in said threshold will instabreak it.

I've known Faye for a long while, at this point years, and I can say without a doubt she is one of the most passionate players on the server when it comes to the lore, with her Gibson rework and her synthetic characters being pretty good examples of that. Her attitude has also gotten endlessly better as well, so I think she'd be perfect for the position. +1

Hi. I used to be the lore maintainer for the Vaurca, and the biggest thing I usually see people mess up is the nuances to playing a Vaurca that are abnormal to other species. In other words, their weirdness often isn't played well. That being said, here are some questions for you. What does Tek think of the Ve'katak Phalanx? (If you are unsure of what this is, there is a search bar in the wiki you can plug the name into) How is the combat engineer angle going to work? Vaurca in general are extremely specialized, and swapping departments is likely to just be a flat no. Consider a scenario in which a racist crewmember insults the Queens and calls your Vaurca an overgrown Ant. How would Tek respond?

Hi. I've been doing some sec rounds recently with your HoS, and I like them a lot! They are professional, know what they are doing, and generally do a very good job and coordinating the department. I think you should get the WL. +1

As stated by Peppermint, you really went too far with this gimmick to the point where it gets dangerously close to sexual assault themes. The logs I posted allude to that, your mentions of "He will like it eventually" allude to that, and you were doing this for basically the entire round. If you do not understand it at this point, then I seriously doubt you ever will. Furthermore, attributing this to Peppermint being out to get you specifically is very silly. Let me be clear, you absolutely did break the rules. The rules do not state every specific situation that constitutes a rulebreak, and a lot of the ERP rule is left to common sense and to what and what is not allowed. Your character was being obsessive and saying very strange things about Clark and it just feels really awkward even reading the logs again. This does not at all mean that it didn't make anyone uncomfortable. There are people who dislike things and do not ahelp them, for some reason. That and we cannot cherrypick rules based on the people being affected by actions, as Peppermint stated. Inducing consent is quite literally the opposite of giving consent. This is what I mean when I say the ERP rule involves common sense. You have zero right to say this. You are only yourself, and not everybody else. There is absolutely no way you could have known how everyone else was feeling about it, so stop trying to use this to justify your actions. This is the biggest red flag you have given me in this entire complaint and basically cements that you are in beyond the wrong headspace for this. Still, Peppermint's decision is being upheld. In the interest in not allowing this to go any further, I am going to lock and archive this complaint early. This behavior is not acceptable and, as stated, it is a miracle that it was only a warning. I suggest you be extremely careful with your gimmick choice in the future.

Hi. We have gone through the logs, and this is frankly a pretty cut and dry deal. Look at this. This is honestly beyond the borderline for creepy. You cannot say you are going to peck on someone a real lot and then mention the 'Special Techniques' and expect people to think literally anything else other than its you making it sexual. This is extremely obvious and, if you still cannot see how it is taken as such, then I am not sure how else to explain it to you. Additionally, to cover your other points, 1. This is not a common thing. It is always a rulebreak and if people are reported or noticed doing stuff like this, it is handled. 2. We do not need to go to every single person you interacted with to confirm that this is not okay. Overall, I nor @Melariara see anything wrong with how this situation was handled. If you have nothing else significant to bring up, this will be locked and archived in 24 hours.

I think Big Tree™ is also a pretty good idea, if not the big feast table.

The dance floor refers to the tiles in the bar, shown here: But Why? Personally, I think its an eyesore. It doesn't fit the wooden floor red couch aesthetic of the room, and when its turned on its sortof just painful to look at. This would be fine if it saw regular use, but I personally have never seen someone actually use it outside of making a dick with the lights for the funny. A LOT of visual noise for not much in the way of RP benefit. Obviously, I can't suggest we just flat remove it and leave it at that, as it leads a TON of empty space in the middle of the bar/kitchen area. So, some suggestions to replace it include: - More smaller tables, to complete a dining room aesthetic. - One BIG table, similar to the big feast table in the holodeck, for gatherings (bonus points that its right next to the kitchen too!) -A pair of couches that make a circle, to make a sort of lounge spot These are just three recommendations, though obviously anyone can suggest more. Hell, if people REAAAALLY want a dance floor, you could just move it to the secondary bar room here: No idea what the general consensus is on this, so its gonna' be a suggestion and not me throwing money at someone to make a PR. Yet.

Yeah, I think I'd be down to see this. Jumping EVERY TWO HOURS is a little much, probably, and a shift change is much better flavor. The idea of jumping to get to other parts of the map is also neato. +1

Right. I will lift the ban. But you have to understand not to continue posting the things you've been getting strikes for. It's a very bad image and, beyond that, you know full well you aren't supposed to do it.

I like this item, and think it fits the character well. Accepted.

I am also of the opinion that the brightness needs to be toned down. I am getting sensory overload just from looking at medical. Additionally, medical in general just looks straight up bad. The grey and white in the Cube and the intense lime green mixed with the not-so-white white clashes hard.

Can hold down shift to toggle run, this would be neat

Body scanners can beam scans straight to OR monitors

Could make the knife part comparable in damage to a screwdriver. Just a shitty lil combiknife. Also, you have to actually use different species' bloods for proper treatment. We KINDA have this but its meh on our server. This would be neat.

Toilets and sinks can overflow and flood rooms The ORs have vitals monitors and a screen that displays stuff a medical monitor does. The Vitals Monitor has an audible beep to gauge heart rate Medical gets a combiknife that has several tools on it: Spacey looking OR tools. Fuck I can probably sprite new ones tbh Their medkits also look better tbh Apparently you can smell stuff like cigarette smoke and blood
