Not sure if +1’s really go on developer applications but I’ll say that every single one of Desven’s Vaurca characters have been 100% different from each other. He’a able to RP as each of them so well that I actually wasn’t able to tell which one he played, and which one was another character. If there’s any doubt that Desven doesn’t have a clear understanding of Vaurca lore, (which I’m sure isn’t up for debate) I can say that from my experience the narratives he’s been able to provide so far have been nothing short of amazing. I love interacting with him in game and I’m sure that what he has planned for Vaurca lore will only solidify the uniqueness and interest in the species.

You definitely know what you’re talking about, you know how to RP and you’ve worded the application brilliantly! Wish you luck on the whitelist!!!

This sounds super interesting and would be more engaging than one-round ghost spawned prisoners. Gives a little more oomph when it comes to punishing people too.

Bias CCIA clearly biased

YES

There’s no way you’d have permission or get away with sneaking out an artefact. Some of those things tear your skin off! Can you imagine the hysteria at the Odin checkpoint? It’d be pretty funny but I doubt it’ll hold up canonically.

You either drink too little and the effects of the drink wear off within minutes or you drink too much and you’re needing to be treated in medical for a failed kidney. I think it’d be better if the effects were longer lasting as well as making it easier to achieve the effects of drinking alcohol. It’d definitely make for some better bar RP if the mechanics lasted for longer and it wasn’t so easy to drink yourself into a coma just trying to get the drunk speech in the first place. I don’t even think most people mean to knock themselves out when they’re drinking, it’s just so hard to maintain the effects at the moment.

I think I'm a little late to the party but MccRrib is so approachable and friendly I think he would be a great addition to the lore team. He seems genuinely interested in open discussions about lore and whenever I've hopped into VC with him, everyone in the call always gets into long chats about the lore (the conversation is normally brought up by MccRrib!) I don't often sit in on lore talks either but, the few bits and bobs that MccRrib told me about actually caught my attention. You can tell he's passionate!

Love the first one! Are you using these for the relay?

Sounds pretty easy to get working but I’m not the Coder. If this was implemented it would be a game changer though. So glad you revived the thread!

I made the complaint confidential because you said the ordeal was causing you to be depressed and ill. We both agreed in this thread to make it public. I did not call you a monster, read the thread. You are posting in your safe space that is a community discord for Aurora. Nobody is going behind your back to get these messages, it’s a community discord. Everyone in there can see it. You’ve said yourself in this thread that you continued to speak on the matter of Ryan and Isski even when told not to. Go back and read what you’ve put. I’m not going to be replying anymore because this is just turning into a back and forth argument. Let’s both wait until the admins ask questions.

It’s very late over here but I really, really need to say this. How can I take your word that you weren’t continuing to tell people? How do I know that you’re not even still doing it? You continued to do it when Alberyk told you not to, you did it in the past and even if you didn’t intend for it to be spread about, telling people about a situation like this is of course going to be gossiped about. You’ve already changed your story multiple times in this thread, and gone around doing the exact thing I said you would do. You’ve been scoring pity points once again, by asking people from Aurora if you really are manipulative and a bad person, and apologising to everyone. You’ve gone on about how you should leave the server again, like you did last time and you’ve left all of our mutual servers again. I didn’t ask you to leave anything, I don’t expect you to leave anything and I am not calling you a manipulative abuser. You are however, taking advantage of your problems IRL to try and push the blame off of yourself. Just today as soon as the complaint went public you tried to spin it around in a private discord and say there was confidential information here and that you were dreading people seeing the complaint. This complaint got taken down and I can only assume that was something to do with you, as I messaged an admin and I had to provide confirmation that we all agreed on it going public. You said for it to go public! How can you try and say I made it public with any malice? We agreed for it to go public! Read your previous replies in the thread. This was going to stay confidential on your behalf, and you agreed to make it public. You're going back on your words from earlier in the thread also. You said that you weren’t trying to come off as suicidal when you said “I don’t want to be here anymore” and then later on you’re telling me you never said it. You can’t boil all of this down to bad memory. Your story keeps changing and I don't think I can wholeheartedly believe that you were trying to rectify the situation anymore. I am quickly going to write on the facts that aren’t entirely clear as well. The reason that I called them emotionally manipulative is that at the start of this Estoy was going around, leaving all of the servers that we shared and using her mental health as a crux to gain sympathy from her friends. It got so bad that players who Estoy had been speaking to came to me, to voice their concern. This is why I accepted your apology because I was worried for you. How could I stay mad at you when I am being told you're telling people that this is making you feel physically sick? Making you feel like you don't belong here anymore, and you don't want to be around anymore. I couldn't. I tried my best to try and sweep this under the rug for you, for your own wellbeing but I was forced into making this complaint. You've told me in the past about what you're struggling with and I appreciate it and would never share your private life but, that has nothing to do with what happened here. It isn’t fair for you to use your mental and physical disabilities to attempt to push the blame onto someone else or away from you. You started the rumour, and you made it worse by instead of telling people that it didn’t happen, you attempted to get witnesses on your side by starting conversations on discord with a line similar to “Do you remember that round where Ryan tried to bully Iskssi into his bed?” If you meant well why would you be asking so many players this? As for the continued yarn spinning? Estoy has admitted themselves that after Alberyk told them to stop talking of everything that happened, they continued to DM people about what was going on. During this time I was still getting messages from people who had heard about it and were wanting to get my side of the story. If you’re told to stop talking about something, you stop. It doesn’t mean you are allowed to continue to talk about what happened but do so in a private server. Alberyk also told you to stop contacting me as well, I believe. That might not be spot on but if it’s not? I told you to stop contacting me also. Granted it wasn't as "firm" as it should of been but you must remember that at the time you were telling everybody how the circumstances had left you ill and depressed. I believed that you were being affected negatively by it all so I tried to end it by accepting your apology and moving on. Me telling you that we need to go our separate ways should of been enough, but you went out of your way to join into the rounds to come up to me and start conversations in LOOC. I immediately walked off and tried to get away from you but apparently you couldn’t see that I didn’t want to engage.

This is going to be my last reply to the thread because now we're just starting to go back and forth and it's turning into an argument. The IR that somebody made regarding all of this is not the matter at hand. That is a completely separate issue which was caused by you spreading around that my character had in fact, sexually assaulted or as you put it, "tried to bully her into sleeping with him" another player of the Aurora. You shouldn't of even let it get that far. I had to solve that myself by reaching out to the player that made the complaint and asking them to shut it down. Your "damage control" as you put it did not help at all. If anything it made it worse as more and more players were to starting to catch wind of what happened. My character's reputation is also the least of my worries. What worried me at the time was that you could think up such a shocking recollection of events and when questioned on it, seep into a sort of depression to get out of it. As much as you say that you were not referring to suicide when you made comments such as, "I do not want to be here anymore" you were telling people of your mental health struggles in the same conversation or sentence. It isn't unreasonable of anyone who reads such a thing to start to worry and be concerned about your wellbeing. This is why I changed my attitude with you within our DMs. You can see in the screenshots that I accepted your apology, asked to go our separate ways and then started ignoring your messages. The only reason I accepted your apology was that the people were coming to me about your behaviour in their DMs. You spoke of your disabilities, your mental health problems and how much this situation had made you depressed and or suicidal. At the end of the day this is just a videogame and if it is really making consider not wanting to be around, you should really think about quitting or taking a break. I don't want you to be having these feelings nor was this complaint made out of spite. I made this complaint because after very clearly telling you I wished not to speak to you, you would come up to me in game and consistently badger me in LOOC. If somebody is ignoring your messages, and has asked you to leave them alone? Extending an olive branch is not what you should be doing. I really do not want to be around you OOC or IC. I made this very clear and you chose to ignore my request at parting ways. I have had to pour so much time into righting the rumour that you in fact did start to spread, and ensuring that nobody on the server has even an inkling of a doubt that I participated in such a horrid act that you've perpetuated.

Okay first off. You may not have meant to insinuate that any sexual assault had happened but unfortunately, that is how it was interpreted by the players that saw our LOOC conversation, and the ones that you told. The IR specifically says "sexual assault" and I have had players DMing me using the word "rape" when describing what you accused my character of doing. When this first became an issue and you were looking for individuals to back up your claims you specifically said "Do you remember that round where Barrett told Issksi her suitor was dead and he tried to bully her into sleeping with him?" That's more than sex-pesty as you put it. I am incredibly lucky that there were witnesses to what had happened, otherwise this would of most definitely been a black mark on my name. How would you feel if someone accused you of engaging in sexual roleplay on the server? I don't think you understand how damaging your statements could of been if the people at the time weren't there to defend me. You say that you will willingly leave the server but I could of more than easily been ostracized by your comments if there were not players to back up my side of the story. I did accept your apology and I felt bad for you at the time but after I had found out you were telling other people the situation, which should of been kept private in the first place if not for me but for your mental health problems that's when I was genuinely pissed off. I do not disregard that you have problems, but to use it is as an excuse in a situation like this is just silly. It really, really is. Everyone has problems, physically and mentally but that's not a free pass to spread around such a strange, outrageous rumour on a videogame. None of the reasons you have given explain why you would come up with something so absurd, especially on a server where sexually explicit behaviour is so strictly monitored. It's coming off as rather disingenuous and dishonest to try and use the problems that you are facing as an to excuse to your behaviour.

I also have the screenshots from January where they accused me in IC and it ended with the conversation bleeding into LOOC. This is where they say that Meltharas would agree that Ryan had raped their character.

Here are the screenshots of the player who plays the Unathi that Ryan had "raped" denying that anything of the sort had ever happened.

Thank you to Arrow who helped me post this, after a frustrating hour of being met with a 500 internal server error! I am going to post the screenshots now that I can finally create a thread. These are all the conversations I have had with Estoy since January to present day. I can give some timeframe as to why each conversation occurred if necessary. It may of been my own fault when I appear to come off as soft in response to some of her messages. You have to realise that the change in tone happened after the DMs I had gotten from another player where they were telling me Estoy was saying things along the lines of, "It would be better if I am not around." "I'm not useful to anyone." "I should just disappear" and such. At the end of our conversations I just ended up ignoring them, until they started coming up to me in game and bothering me there also. In regards to "BB" this was a shared server that we were both in. She ended up leaving it and every other server in reaction to me reporting the rape accusation to Alberyk, as mentioned in the post above. It’s pretty late as of right now so in the morning I will work on getting screenshots from other people. Mainly the screenshots of Estoy telling people that she was depressed and borderline suicidal over the ordeal. I may not be able to get these, as this was told to me in confidence. I will work on getting the conversation between the Unathi player and Estoy, and the player that Estoy convinced to IR Ryan over the rape allegations.

BYOND Key: goolies Game ID: N/A Player Byond Key: Estoytrucha Staff involved: Alberyk Reason for complaint: In January I was playing one of my Cargo Technicians, Ryan Barrett and I was approached by Estoy on her Scientist Taika Thomson who began berating Ryan for being a horrible person. In fairness he is a pretty horrible person and I went along with it because I have a lot of interactions like this on Ryan but then Estoy implied that Ryan had raped an Unathi on station, and it spiralled into LOOC. She accused me of "going too far" and that I should ask the player of the Unathi if I didn't believe her that it happened. I immediately cryoed and went to one of the Unathi players friends who was able to get into contact with said Unathi player. The best part of this is that the player in question who plays the Unathi who had been "raped" by my character, had NO IDEA what Estoy was talking about, and told their friend who was equally as confused, to tell me that there wasn't an issue, as nothing like this ever occurred. I was rightfully furious with Estoy as they had accused me of basically acting out some rape fantasy on station and instead of coming to me privately about it they decided to air it out in LOOC where everyone around us, and all the ghosts spectating could see. Estoy came to me in my DMs and apologised for it, I ignored it for a while but eventually accepted it and said it was best that we keep our distance and not talk about this in the future. After a few days I had found out that Estoy had spread this rumour to other people, who then had spread it further and I was getting DMs from other people about the situation. They admitted to speaking to other people about it but promised to tell them the "revised story" but I don't believe they ever did, and one of the other players that they had told had made an IR about it happening. I messaged said player about what had happened and the IR was taken down. I was even more angry now than last time and I told them I didn't want anything to do with them after I had found out they spread this false narrative. I think it was no more than a week after I got a PM from somebody telling me that Estoy had been in their DMs, breaking down and playing the depression card. They had left all of the Aurora servers as well as another discord that we shared mutual membership in. I felt that I was forced into messaging them and trying to get them to calm down as they were hysterical and the person that had messaged me was concerned about it all, and wanted me to be the bigger man. I eventually was able to get them to stop blaming themselves for what had happened but I personally believe this was just a tactic to garner sympathy after doing such a stupid thing. I told them firmly again that I did not want anything to do with them and that was that. The only reason that I make this complaint is after telling them at least three times to leave me alone, they are constantly coming up to me in game and writing "Hi goolies :)" over and over in LOOC and then trying to get me to interact with their characters. I feel as if I cannot say anything too firm to them, as they have broken into tears and PMed other people where they play the victim card and basically emotionally manipulate the entire situation. I am at wits end and I was not sure what else to do but make a private complaint about this. If I were to make it public, I assume that Estoy would once again try and play with peoples emotions for sympathy reasons. I was told by the person who made me aware that she does this, that it happens often. Did you attempt to adminhelp the issue at the time? I ended up messaging Alberyk who told Estoy to drop the entire thing and not speak of it again. Approximate Date/Time: This happened around the 10th of January, and has continued on from there until now. Since this happened such a while ago, I am currently in the process of collecting all of the screenshots. If whoever takes this complaint can DM me on discord, I can send the ones I have collected so far to you.
