Borgs should not leave the station. This was done to stop them from just raiding away sites with zero effort.

While I have seen you do well in game, I must say that a couple of the ooc interactions I had with you were not something I would consider friendly or productive. So far, those two interactions came accross to me as very mean spirited and far from trying to grasp any issue you have with the lore in a productive manner. I am really unsure if this behavior is going to help create dialogue or solve any possible issue we have. You never tried to contact me to talk about the worries you have with lore, instead you just decided to do those two jabs. I also said several times I am more than willing to talk with people about any issue they have. While people did talk to you about this, I think this is also important in this application, because we should take ooc behavior in consideration in regards to the staff whitelist.

I like the lore piece you wrote about it, but I think it is missing a bit in regards to religion in the hegemony. Could you expand a bit on it? One paragraph is enough. Despite that, I support this application and I think you are a capable writer.

Ater looking into this, you were clearly going around telling everyone that you were ban evading. If I knew that this was you, I would not have even unbanned you from the server. However, going back in my decision is unfair. I will deny this appeal because of this. If you can stay unbanned in the server for one month I will consider lifting the ban.

From the rules: I must say that asking for someone to step on your character like that is really crossing the line of what is acceptable. Even more when taking in consideration the file name and how your character reacted after being shoot on the groin with the pistol. The fact it happened a month or so ago does not matter, just because something escaped the attention of staff due to neglect or because we did not see does not matter. We are not talking about a year or so here. This only really got my attention after someone asked me about this, I was kinda unsure, so I talked with other admins about what they did think, and they did agree that this was too much. The fact that people are not offended also does not matter. I think it breaks the rules. The rules are not here to prevent people from being offended. Going around asking for people to step on your character like that breaks the rules do not matter if everyone or no one thinks ill of it. Sorry but this is not proper at all and should not happen in game, even if it was just for a joke or a meme.

Why did you ban evade instead of just appealing the ban?

This was around one year ago so I will lift this ban. Appeal accepted.

It has been a while so I will lift this. Appeal accepted

Liberation Army Reveals New Weapon! Supreme Commander Nated has announced today that the Liberation Army has conducted its first successful nuclear weapons test. Product of years of secret development by the brightest minds in the Republic, the bomb known as “First Thunder” was detonated in an undisclosed location in Gakal'zaal. This achievement was praised by the civil administration as a necessary step towards securing the independence and future of the Tajaran people. Footage of the detonation was broadcasted through the television and is now available to the public on the extranet. Despite the approval by President Almrah Harrlala and the National Adhomai Worker's Party, the news about the test was not well-received by all members of the National Assembly. The Adhomian Blue Party thoroughly condemned the development of nuclear weapons, citing the environmental dangers of such technology. The Free Tajaran People's Party urged the government to intensify the production of the bombs to safeguard the nation against the Hadiist menace. Rrhaza-Akhran Rahman Hadjuk supported the test, praising the wisdom and leadership of Supreme Commander Nated. The Southern Harr'masir junta suggested that the deployment of those weapons should be decided through voting between the Liberation Army’s command. Ahem Kah’nrir demanded unrestricted access to the future nuclear arsenal; a request that was largely ignored by the National Assembly and Supreme Commander Nated. Rrhaza-Akhran Alexeii K’marr did not comment on the matter. Following hours of debate and voting, the National Assembly has decided that the Supreme Commander of the Liberation Army has the sole authority to order the use of nuclear weapons. This resolution was far from being unanimous; many members of the Assembly promised to request another vote in the future. While this explosive was considerably less powerful than the one used against Quizosa, the Liberation Army assured the National Assembly that the production of stronger devices is underway. The Democratic People’s Republic now stands as equal against the Hadiist usurper. Al’mariism is one step closer to the total victory against the enemies of the Tajara. Further development of weapons and peaceful technologies continues as a part of the national nuclear program.

Latest Tajara lore updates: We have expanded on the Tajaran living in Himeo with the addition of the Free Tajaran Council, you can read more about them here: https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php?title=Himeo#Free_Tajaran_Council Anyway, while most of the information is about the life and activities in Himeo, it is still possible to play a character that is from the planet on the station without being associated to the council, they are the largest community but not everyone is part of them. If you decide to play as member of the council on the station, your options are to be either someone that is disillusioned with the council and left to see rest of the world, or a member of the younger guard that is trying to convince others to support the cause. If it is the latter option, your character would have to hide their intentions from people that are likely not going to buy into your wacky plans, so your character would have to keep their political beliefs hidden and play in a subversive manner. Special thanks for the human lore team for helping us into refining the lore. To make more clear how the tajaran society and nations deals with prejudice and discrimination, we expanded a bit more on their society section in their respective page.s This also comes with briefly explanation on how the family is seen and works in each tajaran faction. https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php?title=People's_Republic_of_Adhomai#Culture_and_Society https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php?title=Democratic_People's_Republic_of_Adhomai#Culture_and_Society https://wiki.aurorastation.org/index.php?title=New_Kingdom_of_Adhomai#Culture_and_Society

While pointing out the already known issues of the unathi lore and what you are doing to change them is a good start and something that everyone will likely do. I think that the stuff you wrote in the google document is really bland. You say you like world building and is interested in adding more fluff, but there is no example of this in the application. Even the arc itself is lacking any kind of plot outside of being a power struggle between two some factions, something that is very common in the lore. Writing any kind of page, addition, or even an article related to the unathi lore would help us in gauging your skills and understanding of the lore.

Anyone spewing racist/hateful rhetoric should also be permabanned, it is not something acceptable and not the kind of stuff I want to see in this community. The fact that you keep arguing that what you said was not racist at all is the big reason I don't think I should lift this ban. If you can't see how saying that the jews/foreigners were actively fucking with some country while abusing a position of power is racist, I don't think you understand what exactly you did. Sorry but this was not a blunt comment or an emotional, you even had some kind of proof ready to try to justify your point. From the discord rule section: I was not under any obligation to warn or tell you that you were wrong. Appeal denied.

Application accepted.

Application accepted.

I have some questions before I can make a decision. What job do you plan to play Farah as? What does she thinks of the NKA and the PRA?

For reference to what happened: Now, no one was talking race during the discussion before this, you went out of nowhere into some rant (alongside with a prepared table to serve as some kind of evidence) about some kind of evil jewish plot. The word jew also being behind a spoiler also kinda gave me some dog whistling vibes. Besides, no one said anything about anti-semitism, yet you went right away claiming that they were accusing you of being one. I later said; "Yes you are" and then applied a ban. In regards to the ban, I am not really interested in having people in the community that believe in this kind of stuff and are eager to prove their point. So, I also applied the ban from the server as well. Reading this appeal, feels like more you are trying to argue that you weren't really being racist, that just going out of nowhere into that angle should have just been handled by a mod telling you to knock it off. If you did think at the time that you were not being racist, you would have not tried to preemptively defend yourself of accussations that were not even raised against you. Sorry but I am not buying into the whole "I was not being racist or I did not intend to sound racist".

Okay, so you played a total of two rounds as a coporate liasion and two as a consular officer. I am a bit unsure if this is enough, do you mind an extension for one more week here?

Application accepted.

The application is a bite concise but it gets the themes and the overall points of the Tajara species. However, I want you to expand on some stuff before I can make a decision: I think you got confused by the dates and the time span here. Between the First Revolution that started in 2421 (which was after the human discovery) and the Second Revolution (which started after Al'mari's death in 2441) there is around twelve years between both events. So, unless she was hiding this entire time or went "undercover" as a commoner, it would make a bit more of sense to flee Adhomai during/after the Fist Revoution instead of the Second one. Because the Second One saw the rise of the New Kingdom of Adhomai, which is a safe place to the previous nobility. Also, unless you are referencing to her current age, not the one she had at the time, she would be way past the life expectations of any Tajara if she was an erderly Tajara during the First Revolution. Would make more sense for her to be way younger when the revolution happened. Edit the main application with the changes when you do then, please. Now, just two questions. How does Yekaterrína sees the People's Republic of Adhomai and the Democratic People's Republic? In regards to her religion, does she believe in S'rendarr and Messa or any of the Ma'ta'ke Gods?

This is a banaid fix on the top of another bandaid fix. Having the draft and then adding some exceptions is really running against the reasons why the draft was added at first and this would make the antag preferences more byzantine than it is already. Voting for dismissal.

Are you sure that you can avoid what happened in the previous times? Are you willing to change your vision/what you wrote for glorsh, when we consider that the skrell history changes were largely unpopular? But, while I am not a big fan of you using the wiki to propose stuff, I guess that you are contributing more than the last time you were the synth deputy.

I guess this is solved.

Had a discussion with the team, considering what happened, your behavior, and your notes, we decided to keep the ban for now. Appeal denied.

Forgot to update this, but here the lastest updates to the Tajara lore: The food lore has been expanded with the addition of the notable dishes section to the tajara, pra, dpra and nka pages.
