Dr. Farson

Yeah, I understand that. In that case I'll just take the ban as is, I acted stupidly and should be punished accordingly. Consider my appeal retracted.

To be clear, what exactly am I supposed to do, reasonably in character, if doctors are screaming for my help with scanning and whatnot?

As for the firefight, I'm not sure what to say. I was trying to get back to medical, the firefight was at bridge, and I was trying to get past cryo. I did not INTENTIONALLY run into a merc fight, I was trying to get away as fast as possible. If denied, I'll take this with grace, but I'm honestly quite confused.

BYOND Key: Dr. Farson Total Ban Length: 7 Days Banning staff member's Key: Roostercat12 Reason of Ban: Reason for Appeal: To be clear, two things were made apparent to me, one, I was allowed to help out medical by WickedCybs, they really needed it, but RoosterCat disagreed with me on this. I'm not sure WHAT the communications issue is here, but I'm rather confused. Two, I was MOST ASSUREDLY not supposed to take the route I did to medical. I was TRYING to get OUT of the firefight, I didn't mean to get involved. I apologise if that is what happened, but that was not my intent. as for the "Playing medic" issue, I was explicitly told by WickedCybs that I was ALLOWED to assist medical as needed. Which I did. It was a mass-casualty, and doctors were screaming for my help. It's not like I was doing surgery or anything, I was just running triage.

So am I approogled?

Make it 7 then. Also, they didn't vote mainly because they did not like those running. Despite them identifying the most with Symbiosism (which I like for ooc reasons), they chose not to vote because they still didn't like the candidate. I can't really elaborate too much, it's a stylistic choice on my part, because it fits their personality. They're a caring, yet apathetic when it comes to politics.

What is Vutlit's Social Credit Score? 9/10 How does Vutlit feel about the Federation? Vutlit feels very fondly of the federation, having served patriotically in their military. Where is Vutlit's family? Still in the Federation or have they moved abroad with Vutlit? Keep in mind that children are not allowed on the Horizon. They were left back home. What job will Vutlit have on the Horizon exactly? Medical doctor, with Zeng. Is Vutlit a Listener or Reciever? They are more a receiver, but are more towards neutral. What religion/belief do they follow? Weishii How does Vutlit feel about C'thur and Federation Diona? They think that they are welcome addition to the Jargon Federation. How does Vutlit feel about Skrell who left the Federation as refugees? How do they feel about Skrell who were born outside the Federation? They have no particularly strong feelings. but they think people should do what is best for them. How does Vutlit feel about Megacorporations? Specifically their activities in the Federation, but also in general. They think megacorporations are a step forward, but easily corrupted. Who did Vutlit vote for in the latest election? Do they still stand by their vote? They chose not to vote. How old is Vutlit exactly? You mention that they're part of the Supernova Era of Skrell, but no exact age has been given. 89 Where did Vutlit go to university? What did they study?" They studied at Aliose Medical University. Additionally, I will ask after the round.

BYOND Key: Dr. Farson Character Names: Alexander Farson Species you are applying to play: Skrell What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Purple and yellow Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph format. One paragraph minimum per question. Why do you wish to play this specific race: I am generally planning on playing this race due to my severe interest in skrell. I have always been fascinated by their culture, their pragmatic yet psionic nature, complex emotions, and whatnot. I understand I've had issues in the past, but It's been my experience that moving past them is the best way to move forward, and grow as a person. I think skrell will allow me to branch out more, and become a more avid player of the game. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: For one, they are psionic, and they are a rather pragmatic and logical species. But I think their psionic nature leaves a lot to be discussed about their relatively empathic nature. They're a fascinating species, one marred by overall misunderstanding in character, and out of character. I think what makes them so different is just their... overall alien nature, and the way they carry themselves amongst humans. Fascinating, if I do say so myself. Character Name: Jahara Vutlit Please provide a short backstory for this character Vutlit was born on the skrellian homeworld, Qerrbalak, in the city of Ka'lo, to a clutch of four eggs. They are an Axiori skrell, and were always fascinated by the machinations of alien bodies. Given that they were born during the Supernova era, their parents treated them as a star child, With their Qrri'myaq taking particular interest in them. At the age of four, they entered primary school, earning various accolades for their studious nature. A naturally curious and interested skrell, they began to look into the field of xenomedicine even more. Particularly the interest of studying alien species in a clinical setting. But as time went on, they began focsing on other talents. Their Psionic talent. They honed it to the best of their ability, past what a normal skrell could, and were eventually recruited into the Qukala, despite having a partner who they were to soon perform the J'oxa with. After their service in the military, the J'oxa went through, and Vutlit found their mate to be kind and caring, and also intensely psionic. It was a match made amongst the stars, for certain. They lived together for some time, before having children, a hatch of three, and as such, much time was spent taking care of their Starchildren. But the call of the stars was never gone, they eventually joined with Zeng-Hu, a skrell-aligned medical firm, and began their medical journey. It was a new frontier, one that they were ready to take on. What do you like about this character? I really like the lore of this character, I spent some time thinking about it, and I think it's going to mesh really well into the server, How would you rate your role-playing ability? It wasn't good, and I'm still improving, but I think I can move past my erroneous ways, and get into the groove of things. Notes: This is me reapplying. Feel free to ask any questions you may have.

I did go play bay, yes. My internet was indeed out for 20 minutes, but again, at the time I did not think to contact an admin regarding the issue. I had went and used a friend's data connection to play bay around 5 mins after the DC. I'll admit, it would have been more productive to relog, but I had not thought of that at the time, due to my prior line of reasoning (me not focusing on the issues regarding player slots.) Primarily, I believe this to be an issue of a misunderstanding of the rules, and specifically, a series of mistakes on my part. While I'm willing to accept and abide by any decision that's made on this matter, I really opened this ticket to provide some clarification.

BYOND Key: Dr. Farson Total Ban Length: 2 days Banning staff member's Key: peppermint96 Reason of Ban: Went SSD in limited slot role (chef), did not inform admins Reason for Appeal: This is really rather simple: My internet went out, and I DCed. It came on shortly after, like around 20 mins later, but I didn't think it was worth it to rejoin, as I thought someone would have either moved me to cryo, or the round would have ended. I didn't think to contact an admin after the fact, on the discord, because again, I was thinking about game progression, and I didn't think the chef was really as important as something like, perse, a medical doctor or a security officer. I admit I wasn't thinking about the number of slots for said roles, and assumed someone would move me to cryogenics. But during the period I was DCed there honestly wasn't much I could do.

Of course. I was going off of the basic lore page, so here are my posts after reading ALL the other pages. 1. What planet is Voluquo from? Qerrbalak, specifically the city of Ka'lo. They are of the Axiori subspecies. 2. What is Voluquo's Social Credit Score? 8/10 - Voluquo has a high social credit score, as they are outwardly supportive of the Jargon Federation, have not committed crimes, and follow Weishii. They also have taken efforts to reproduce with their Qu'Poxii, having undergone the J’ox’a with them. 3. How does Voluquo feel about the Federation? Voluquo is overtly supportive of the federation, and they actively take part in effort to contribute to it. They believe, as the home of the skrell, they should work towards helping their fellow members of the federation, to ensure that something like the Glorsh does no re-occur. 4. When you say Voluquo joined the Military, do you mean the Qukala? I was considering either the Tupkala or the Qukala, yes. More likely, however, due to their psionic potential, they would be put in a position involving the use of such talents, along with their medical skills, perhaps as a ship's counsellor, or a medical officer. 5. What kind of relationship did they have with their partner? Did they form a Quya? How did their J'ox'a go, if so? As previously mentioned, they had a J'ox'a with their partner. It went well. They found out that their partner is an artistic thinker; one that thinks outside the box and wishes to strive towards artistic excellence. They often present ideas to Voluquo that they would normally find unconventional, which they enjoy. On the contrary, Voluquo was able to show that they are very pragmatic, following an adherence to logic and rationality, but also deeply considering the emotions of others. They both believe that they complement eachother's intellect, and as such performed the Quya. 6. Is Voluquo a Listener or Reciever? They are a receiver, being both psionically proficient and sensitive. This has led to some more open doors to them, and some closed doors, and has resulted in a difference in lifestyle for them and their Qu'Poxii (starlover). 7. What religion/belief do they follow? As previously mentioned, Voluquo follows Weishii. 8. How does Voluquo feel about C'thur and Federation Diona? If Voluquo was in the Qukala, how do they feel about their full intergration into it? They feel that as long as those who are willing to be loyal to defending their homeland remain that way, they see no problem with minor integration. However, they do somewhat oppose the full integration of the Lukala into the Qukala, but has not yet found a logical reason other than their personal feelings, so often disregards this in normal conversation. 9. Does Voluquo have any thoughts of the Traverse Refugee Crisis, and the Skrell Refugees in Biesel? They do not agree with Biesel's policies regarding the forced enlistment in the TCFL, or the initial treatment of skrell refugees. For those refugees willing to escape the combat, they deemed it saddening that the individuals were mistreated, and then forced to work in a military. 10. How does Voluquo feel about Megacorporations making progress in the Federation via the Special Economic Zones? Voluquo has no official stance on the SEZ's as they have not personally encountered the effects of it, however they are supportive of Zeng Hu, as they have been loyal employers to them. 11. Who did Voluquo vote for in the recent Election? They are a follower of Symbiosism, so they voted for: 12. Voluquo is 82 years old, which places them in the "Supernova Era" of Skrell, this was a time of little births for the Skrell, how did their parents treat them? As a supernova child, they were treated carefully, and prizedly by their parents. Their Qrri'Myaq and Qraa'Myaq took extreme care in teaching the young tadpole about the importance of the stars and learning new things, and this led to them eventually seeking their travel to human space.

BYOND Key: Dr. Farson Character Names: Alexander Farson Species you are applying to play: Skrell What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Light Blue Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph format. One paragraph minimum per question. Why do you wish to play this specific race: I've always been fascinated by the skrell and their culture, specifically their decentralised way of living, and their attunation to psionics. I've found it quite fascinating in my interaction with skrell on the server, and I greatly enjoy interactng with the species. I think it would also be good for me to diversify my character roster with more alien individuals, and I hope that at some point I can expand my roleplaying skills through the various different cultures and species in the game. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: The skrell are a pragmatic race, and a race of mostly intellectuals. They tend to observe more than act, and generally focus on the "long" view of life, valuing the greater good over individual gain. Skrell tend to express their emotions both psionically and through body language and their words, due to their lack of facial muscles. Skrell are very descriptive, and tend to emote through words, and are less affected by traditional insults and stress. Character Name: Vuloquo Xrrili Please provide a short backstory for this character: Vuloquo Xrrili was born in an egg clutch of three eggs. As they grew from tadpole to that of a young skrell, they began their journey through not only the psionic wake, but also life itself. Having a pair of friendly parents, they entered their first primary school at the age of five. They did well in primary school, and reached maturity rather quickly, completing all the necessary courses throughout all of their schooling. They were unremarkable for a skrell to say the least. It was soon, however, after they completed their medical training, that they decided to join the Jargon Federation's Military. They underwent the traditional genetic treatments. It was here that they met one of their closest partners, and they went on to pursue a relationship with them, continuing even after they left the military. Their partner soon left as well, and by then Vuloquo Xrrili was 82 years old. It was time for them to start a new era in their life, so they would not be labelled as 'lazy' by their peers. They decided to pursue a career with Zeng-Hu, given their friendly relationship with the Jargon Federation. They were soon transferred to the odin, before then being transferred again to tha aurora. So begins their new story, now with a partner, and a stable, competitive job. What do you like about this character?: I enjoy this character mainly because it's my introduction to the skrellian world. I still have a lot to learn, but I think I can do well. How would you rate your role-playing ability? I believe my roleplaying ability to be around average. I tend to try my best to stick to a particular character gimmick, and if something goes wrong, I try to remedy it.

Thank you for offering clarification, please know I completely respect your decision. On the note of funny names, my IRL doctor is actually called Micheal Cummings, and he used to be a GYNECOLOGIST.

Let me be frank, apologies in advance for my curt response. I just want to say this. It feels like you're throwing out the possibility of change entirely here. Refusing to acknowledge that, considering where I was, I have changed. As for the booing, I have stated in my previous post that it was a stupid, spur of the moment mistake on my part. I don't see how continuing the argument will change that. As of now I just want to let this be over, stop talking about yesterday, and focus on actual constructive feedback. I have taken the effort to respond to everyone's posts here in a calm and respectful manner. Having to explain the same action multiple times to different people is really getting on my nerves. If you have an issue with my behavior, I accept that. But all the issues you speak of have actively been resolved, and effort has been put in to ensure they are not repeated. Ignoring that, and continuing to reference said behavior, without offering a tangible alternative, such as what some other here have suggested (i.e. playing for longer or working to improve reputation), is not, in my personal opinion, constructive feedback.a I feel like we're all beating a dead horse at this point.

I see all your points. But again, my response is the same for all of them. I appreciate the feedback, but have since changed drastically. I'm aware of the pattern of behavior, and I've actively worked to change that pattern. To be VERY clear, the tophat issue was a joke, one I didn't quite get. It has since been resolved, and I have acknowledged that it was a joke misinterpreted by me. I really think we should discontinue conversation about the tophat. I've answered three or four posts now about it and to be honest it is getting a bit tedious having to explain the same thing over and over again. Even the handling admin admitted he didn't know why it's such a big deal. I booed the boss because my character worked for Zeng hu, and it was a zavod rep speaking. I admit it wasn't the greatest decision, and it was a spur of the moment thing. My stupid brain went "zavod bad = boo" The cane incident was because I was playing when I was off my meds. I have made it very clear I was not in a good part of my life at that time. I was suicidal irl, so that was a serious issue for me. I have since changed medications and am now a lot more stable. Finally the Koi's was me trying to get food from a vending machine extremely quickly, and forgetting to read the text. I had accidentally eaten the bar thinking it was chocolate oocly, and not bothering to read the ft. I do hope this sheds some light on these issues.
