Excellent. I will go ahead and accept this appeal and lift your ban. Locking and Archiving.

Before I lift this ban I just want to confirm you understand that if you need to leave a round early (or afk for more than like 10-15 minutes) you should go to cryogenics, or at the very least ahelp if it’s an emergency.

After speaking to the applicant, I will be denying this application. Feel free to contact me directly on discord at Flamingo#5454 if you have further comments, questions, or concerns about this decision. Locking and Archiving.

Application accepted following a successful trial. Welcome (back) to the team. Locking and Archiving.

I will keep my response brief in the interest of not dragging things out as much as possible. Matt and I discussed the scenario and are in agreement here. While I can definitely understand the logical thought process behind it, the fact of the matter is that the directive DOES in fact address a very real gameplay problem, which was why it was created in the first place. That problem being security visitors specifically, being deputized during rounds in order to combat antags, thus bolstering the station forces. If you disagree with the policy in place, I encourage you to head over to the policy suggestion subforum and create a thread where it can be discussed. Otherwise, I will be locking and archiving this thread, as it is resolved.

Alright, Matt and I have had some time to go over things and have come to a decision. After reviewing the logs and provided testimony, we've ruled this complaint to be invalid. Our reasoning hinges on the fact that, as Read ruled during the round, the situation was not dire enough for the promotions. The security team was indeed injured, but the Head of Security could still effectively deal with the situation. Spiders, while posing a threat, can be largely ignored for a few minutes. The prisoner from our understanding was HuT and can easily be stuffed in a cell for a few minutes while the HoS deals with things. Finally, the Head of Security is adequately equipped to deal with a single cargo tech with some rifles. From a logical standpoint, we understand your thought process behind promoting visitors to bolster the Head of Security's effective reach, but the directive cited by Read in the original ahelp was enacted due to gameplay reasons, not in-character logical ones. Visitors are generally only to be promoted if a situation has already reached the point where ERT is going to be called regardless. This is of a similar caliber as handing out weapons to the crew at large, as that is effectively what a visitor is, regardless of training. Acceptable under the right circumstances, but not when there's some minor issues. If there are no further concerns, we will be locking and archiving this thread in 24 hours.
