. . .you're wondering why people aren't joining? "Yes, I wonder why people aren't willing to join my "perfectly good" 500 year old ideology, which has killed millions, and is extremely outdated. . .yes." People have no reason to join revs just because "rIsE uP" people often enough, don't challenge the status quo. What you need for people to join revs, is a reason. Pay cuts is the most common thing that people go with. If you just start spouting random communist/stalinist crap on the radio, people will think you're just some insane extremist. People don't randomly turn to violence.

So alright. Let me get this straight. First off, no I did not want to pay off the ransom with the captain's ID, I never said so. I only used it to get the station funds, and threw it.back into command after letting myself out. Second off, Jose was at a mental break point. He came back to the job before he probably should have, after losing a lot of friends. And- the assistant, that being Rosa Alice was another one of his friends (Who he already thought he lost once). After the event arc, he lost all faith in security, thinking that they were more of a hinderance and threat to the station, rather than its protectors, after he was beaten by them in the interrogation room, like a week ago, or so before the round in question. And yes "Keep your character's goals in mind" A character's goal, is not just doing their job. Jose's goal- at that point, was to keep his friend safe. He believed that command would relegate that job to security, who would not be able to accomplish that job without Rosa dying. Did it ruin the gimmick? No, I don't think so. The kidnapping turned out to be a "NT simulation" done by a borg, which made for some very interesting RP after the fact.

Oh psh, I'm writing this really late, so sorry for any mistakes I might've made

This is really a problem. People with disabilities often aren't considered (Or, due to the size of this community, never; which of course, is understandable) but that really doesn't mean that those people shouldn't be excluded out of a large part of the game due to the disability, if it is able to be overcome (Mesons, in this case) obviously this wasn't meant to have this effect. As I said, probably wasn't thought through. But (and again, thanks to the size of this community) change is possible. So I would be all for a mesons rework, and even if not that; it being too much work for appeasing just one person, then simply keeping it in the game files, and as Estoy suggested granting their characters mesons, which I'm sure they'd be more than happy to do, even if it meant closer oversight by the admins or even as they said removing their ability to antag.

If other, replace line and specify.) Overview of the Incident: Earlier in the shift of the third, Antonio Romano suffered injuries from a scrubber discharge, which left him with amnesia, forgetting everyone he knew, and from what it looked like, leaving him in a confused, daze-like state. The doctors, who treated him, released him, despite the clear indications of mental trauma, stating that they did not have any psychiatrists onboard, (which is quite a flimsy reason in my opinion, but that is besides the point). Mr. Romano was either released on his own, or into the care of his "friend". Eitherway, Mr. Thompson decided to "take care" of Mr. Romano. He stated over radio that he would make Mr. Romano "better than he was before", which, quite reasonabely, looking now. Concerned me and my partner, Mr. Thomson. We went to Cargo, to check in on Mr. Romano, and ensure that Buck Thompson was doing nothing malicious. To our horror, Mr. Thompson and Johan Wurst were trying to "rewire" mr. Romano, by demonizing his other friends, trying to establish himself as his "best friend" calling one of his friends an "Evil succubus" that wanted to take Mr. Romano away from them. This already was blatantly abusing Mr. Romano's condition. Yet security did not charge, or detain Mr. Thompson with anything, or do anything at all, really. After a bit of arguing, Mr. Romano was clearly stressed by the whole situation, and went up the cargo elevator, to the surface. At the cargo bay surface, after I hacked the door open (Upon a security officer's request), more arguing ensued, (Mr. Thompson blaming me and Mr. Thomson for stressing out Mr. Romano, despite himself shouting through the entire ordeal) Mr. Romano, then layed down on the floor, clearly due to the stress of the entire ordeal. Mr. Thomson then approached him, covering Mr. Romano with their coat, and as they did, Mr. Thompson tried to sic Mr. Romano's guard dog on Mr. Thomson, which could've easily lead to serious injury. After a while, Mr. Romano said that he's had enough, and that he needed to be alone. Mr. Thompson of course, was the first to chase after him. After that, I was the first to find Mr. Romano, and I decided to employ the help of Lena Hegarty, who was not previously involved in the whole ordeal, and was widely known to be a kind soul, so I thought she would be able to at least calm Mr. Romano down a bit. Though, unfortunately, after a while, Mr. Thompson also found out where Mr. Romano was, immediately running up to him, and screaming at him, once again. He then also shoved a bowl of spaghetti in Mr. Romano's face saying that it "would help", and he pretty much coerced Mr. Romano into eating a bowl of spaghetti by shouting at him. During that, I was trying to stop Mr. Thompson, and to give Romano some space. Despite my pleas, Officer Luukanen did not do anything, despite the call of the medical intern present at the scene, to give Mr. Romano space, instead saying that maybe the spaghetti will indeed help. At that point, emotion overtook me, and I slapped Buck Thompson, thinking this was all maybe some sick joke, and that a slap would break him out of it, but no. After that I went on a walk to cool off. After that, a second incident transpired, the day after. Mr. Buck Thompson, hit Mr. Romano with a shovel in an attempt to "fix" him. Miss Alice was present for this, as well as Annika Vorobye, who might've been an accomplice in Buck Thompson's "Plan". In short. Mr. Thompson is an abuser, that should not be anywhere close to Antonio Romano, and I am fairly certain that they may be holding them back from proffesional help, although that is just speculation at this point. Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why?: The Research Director did not respond to the situation despite Mr. Thomson's calls over the radio, instead leaving the matter to security during the first incident. During the second incident, a captain was present, but it happened right at the end of a very busy shift ((happened during an event round with a Phoron eating bug, Ninjas and a wizard.)) Actions taken: Buck Thompson was arrested and charged with assault after the second incident Additional Notes: Antonio Romano may not be mentally sound enough to testify, as even to a non-medical proffesional such as me, he is clearly mentally unwell. Taika Thomson and Buck Thompson are in no way related, and the surnames are simply a coincidence

Tbh, I feel like the engineering ones got the least love (though I suppose that's business as usual in engineering ;-;). And I doubt the borer one would ever be put in, but other than that? I feel like this is a good idea, but it needs some work

1. In his opinion, they're both wrong following oppressive ideals. NKA wanting to continue the opression of the lower classes while the PRA being a dictatorial slaughterhouse for anyone that opposes them. Although he does thinks that it's the leaders that misguided the masses that are to blame, and not the people themselves 2. He's still a young Tajara that is very much looking for adventure, just. . . something less bloody, this time. Hopefully 3. In his opinion, there shouldn't be any restrictions based on the race of Tajara you are. Every Tajara should be based on their merits, not what their ancestors did.

Oh, right. The Hharar

BYOND Key: Tomkiel Character Names: Species you are applying to play: Tajara What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Taupe Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yup 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: Right, WELL. Tajara, are imo one of the most interesting species, when it comes to their culture and history. They are a people that have been through two extremely bloody civil war, in the span of 40 years. Their culture, technology has rapidly changed and rapidly had to change with humans bringing in technologies which normally would be far away from the Tajara, as well as bringing in the spark, and the means for a civil war to be won by the "Progressives". So you essentially have this conflict between the old ways, and a new horizon to look forward to. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: I did state most of it in the point above. But besides what I already said, the Tajara are a people that have been ravaged by war. Pretty much every Tajara has felt it most likely in some significant way. Character Name: Ostroverkhov Urvan Please provide a short backstory for this character: Ostrov was born in 2440, during the interwar period in the city of Trizar, he was one of three other children. His childhood was quite peaceful, but then the fire nation attacked, until the war came to his city, when he was 14 years old. Due to his young age, he was not among the men fighting, but rather at the back lines, helping to tend to the wounded. He grew a liking to the "job" and, as many other young Tajara, he would follow the war, looking for adventure, and serving in the DPRA medical corps, taking wounded from the battlefield, dressing wounds, and often, being with soldiers in their last moments. And, as, once again, many other young Tajara, he learned the true face of war of modern war, the hard way, growing quite the disdain for it, in the end. He was amongst the lucky ones, coming out of the war with only a torn ear, and weakened hearing in his left ear. At the end of the war, he ended up helping out at an IAC facility, where he learned the basics of. . .basic, as well as more modern medical equipement. After the ceasefire was announced, he fully signed on with the IAC, being taken off planet with them, and (quite uneventfully) travelling the stars, for a bit over half a year, until finally ending up in Tau Ceti, and then signing onto the Aurora, as an EMT after deciding that the IAC was. . .too boring, to put it bluntly. He believes in the DPRA's cause, although he is staunchly against another war, and is more open minded to other, more diplomatic means, instead. He nominally believes in the worship of S'rand'marr, going by the philosophy of "There are no atheists on the battlefield" What do you like about this character? (Describe what you like about this character How would you rate your role-playing ability?) Ostrov is a young Tajara, that is still finding his way in the Ceti blend of cultures, finding a lot of things. . .quite strange, that he had not encountered in his stay in the IAC. He would at least try to get along cordially with members of the other factions from Adhomai, and he could probably get into conflict with some of the more. . . jingoist DPRA supporters. And I like to think that my roleplay ability is decent. Notes: I have made this app quite late, so I do apologise for any spelling mistakes and what not.

Heya, I was the jugg jugg that round. What happened from my perspective, was that you told me to "Get them" Which, well- a juggernaut has very little in the ways of. . . non-lethal take downs. I attempted to capture them alive anyways, going for the feet, or just dragging them. And after I knocked them down, you went ham on them, saying to "maim them". (Though I might be remembering some of the details wrong, since this was some time ago, and not a very memorable round for me, other than how bad it was)

Reporting Personnel: Jose Dean Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Station Engineer Game ID: b7E-c9Do (Round after the one with the incident) Personnel Involved: - Ryan Barett - offender - Larisa Hunter - Witness - Bartender, was present through the whole incident - Skazurah Kas - Witness - Was at the bar, being harassed by the offender Secondary Witnesses: - Todd Halas - Witness - The responding officer to the bar - Uptari Xiialt - Witness - Was also harassed by the offender Time of Incident: Real Time: ~21:40 GMT+1 14/06/2020 Location of Incident: Bar Nature of Incident: [ ] - Workplace Hazard [ ] - Accident/Injury [ ] - Destruction of Property [ ] - Neglect of Duty [x] - Harassment [x] - Assault [x] - Misconduct [x ] - Other: Threats of violence Overview of the Incident: Around the end of the shift. I entered the bar. I saw Ryan Barett Harassing various crew members, verbally, as well as physically to an extent (Pats on the back with a lot of strength put into them). After some time he threatened violence on Uptari Xiialt who seemingly out of fear, jumped behind the bar counter and called security. Barett then continued to threaten violence upon her. Todd Halas responded, attempting to calm Barett down. At that point, I wanted to leave the bar to head to departures, as the crew transfer shuttle was called, but I accidentally bumped into Mr. Barett, spilling the coffee on him. He immediately attempted to punch me (Although missing while doing so) and then proceeded to throw various things at me, even though I apologised. He then threatened violence upon my partner, later saying "It was not a threat, but a promise" Submitted Evidence: N/A Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why?: At the end of the overview, the shuttle had docked at the station, thus there was no time to inform anyone in command Actions taken: Security was called. Additional Notes:

+1 I honestly like interacting with Imran, it's always nice, and good RP.

I don't like it, change is scary, it makes me feel old.

Yup, pretty much, they didn't really specify what sort of "quest" it was, they just hoped he'd either die or just not come back. It wasn't really Trozuk, failing to do something, sure he had his ups and downs but the main thing, is that, he was just bloody unlucky. He angered the wrong people by accident, he got in fights with the wrong people and he often had differing opinions from the chief. No, after realising why they sent him on a quest, he considered them as cowards for not telling him in his face that they didn't want him there, and he wants nothing to do with them. I don't really think it matters where the tribe's from, Trozuk considers that as a part of his life where he was young, stupid and naive, this, if you were to ask him where he's from, the most detail he'd go into, would be "moghes" He never found out, but he figured it was the culmination of the stuff from my second point. He has abandoned that path, because he believes that after what he's done, he can never become a kataphract, and also, he simply doesn't want to lead that life style anymore.

BYOND Key: Tomkiel Character Names: +Aqil Wazen Species you are applying to play: Unathi What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Brown Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yup 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: (One paragraph minimum) Right, so, a little backstory, if you will. I was playing a round as my Engineer Jose Dean, and happened to be a traitor, so I decided that a nice thing would be to ask the HoS for a bunch of credits under the threat of bombing the station. They were taking a while, and when I was talking on the radio, a unathi miner said they just managed to mine out a bunch of Phoron, and that it should be enough for me to be satisfied, so I decided "eh, why not" And when I went there, my character broke down crying, pretty much saying that they didn't want to do this, and were driven to desperation because of poverty. So this nice Unathi miner, said that they'd protect me and help me get back on the rightful path. We went to the church, prayed to Sk'akh (well he did) and he said that I could go back on the right path, if we hunted down the evil of the station, so we pretty much went around trying to hunt down the other traitors that were murdering and stealing their way through the station. This Unathi player which unfortunately I do remember the name of, got me seriously interested in the Unathi and made me want to play tham. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: (One Paragraph minimum) Right then, let's begin with this. The Unathi are traditionalist honourbound people, where in human culture it is a choice to be honourable, in unathi culture it is pretty much required to be honourable, speaking of their cultre, the contact war. . . do I even have to mention it? The already incredibely traditionalist Unathi Izweski clashed with the even more traditionalist. . . traditionalists. The war was a disaster on an unprescedentet scale for the Unathi (and their home planet), and has molded the modern space-fairing Unathi, as individuals and as a peoples, with the Izweski seeing themselves as fighting "backwards savages barely considered Unathi" while the tribes seeing the Izweski as abandoning their own culture and embracing (literally) alien culture. Character Name: Trouzk Drazix Please provide a short backstory for this character (Aproxomately two paragraphs) Trouzk of clan Drazix was born in a small tribe in the countryside, his childhood was uninteresting, to unathi standards that is, but when he reached 19, the shaman of his tribe said that he would go on to do great deeds and must go on a great adventure to rid the world of evil, although later in his life, his theory was that the shaman was persuaded to get rid of him by the clan leader, that Trouzk fell in bad graces with. Trozuk figured that his adventure was meant for him to become the greatest warrior that ever lived, and he actually became quite good with the lance. When he moved to one of the larger cities, he challenged a. . . kataphract to a duel, Akxut Dranjoshk was his name. He faired well, for a simple tribal. In the end, he lost, but the kataphract was impressed with Trouzk's ability and took him in as a kataphract-hopeful. They travelled first around Moghes, and then moved onto space, adventuring across the galaxy. On one of their adventures, they were fighting a band of pirates. Trozuk saw that his kataphract-mentor was about to be killed by a pirate with a knife, so he stabbed the pirate. . . from the back. Akxut turned to him with a questioning and possibly a bit disgusted expression, Trozuk did not get a good look from beneath his and his mentors helmet as the eyes of the kataphract soon turned into an expression of a painful grimace as a wounded pirate stabbed them through the back with an energy sword and finished them off with a revolver shot. Trouzk quickly dealt with the last pirate, but his mentor was now dead. And he was left to question his honour. At this point, Trouzk wandered the galaxy for a few months, searching not for adventure, but mostly for anwsers. Was what he did right? Is it still nescesarry to keep your honour when fighting honourless foes? He forever remembered the look Akxut gave him right before his death. It was at this point that he figured that the shaman simply wanted to get rid of him, and the whole thing, the prophesy, his grand "adventure" were all false. Trouzk was 26 at this point, and he settled for a more peaceful life, after his "honour crisis" as he thought of it. He now lives on the Odin trying to make a living for himself working on the Aurora as a miner, no longer living off of the high of adrenaline on an adventure the whole time, yet still keeping to his honour. He adheres to the Th'akh religion What do you like about this character? (Describe what you like about this character How would you rate your role-playing ability?) I especially like the "honour crisis" that Trouzk had after such a small thing (for us puny humans) like striking from while an enemy's back was turned, even if it was to save his mentor. And also that a lot of the things in his backstory, well, he had to interpret what they meant, did they really "cast" him out of his tribe? Was the look in his mentor's eyes that of dissapointement in him? Or was he just surprised? And I'd like to think that my RP ability is decent, not too great, not too terrible.

Alright, cheers

BYOND Key: Tomkiel Total Ban Length: Sec Job ban Banning staff member's Key: Pratepresidenten Reason of Ban: Logging off without going to cryo yet again. This can be appealed once improvement is seen. Reason for Appeal: I believe that my cryo tendencies have improved quite a bit, and I don't just go to cryo if I'm bored or something like that, now.

BYOND Key: Tomkiel Total Ban Length: Sec Job ban Banning staff member's Key: Pratepresidenten Reason of Ban: Logging off without going to cryo yet again. This can be appealed once improvement is seen. Reason for Appeal: Yeah, I didn't really ever think about the effect of me logging off as warden in the middle of a game may have, and didn't see the warning at first since *I didn't really known about notifications and just closed the tab straight away* so yeah, but now, if I play any important role/role that is needed but there's very few of it, I make sure I can actually finish and don't log off when I am bored, and I'd do the exact same thing with sec if I got unbanned, so the ban reason shouldn't be a problem anymore.

BYOND Key: Tomkiel Total Ban Length: Security job ban, so I suppose until it is lifted. Banning staff member's Key: ReadThisNamePlz Reason of Ban: I was banned due to starting to shoot at a guy that was aiming at somebody and then getting a bit carried away and shooting when he grabbed the person he was previously aiming at, and the admin saying that I did not understand what I did wrong. Reason for Appeal: Though I do agree that I did get a little bit carried away, when I continued to shoot my gun when the guy grabbed the person, in my opinion, you shouldn't have to talk for 5 minutes straight before EVERY action (Not saying that you never need to do that) especially when there's a guy 2-3 meters away from you waving a gun about and aiming it at people. rp is not only speaking and talking, it is also doing, and in that situation, I was rping what a security officer would do in that situation, though as I look back at it, I again say, I did get carried away, I see my mistake and I'll try to be less trigger-happy in the future.
