As said previously, preference probably will be given to players with the senior title. But the whole idea of having a head whitelist is that players who are Whitelisted can play as heads, those who are not, cannot. Of course there's times when other players are chosen(which Is fine by the way, I'm not suggesting we stop promoting people who don't have the whitelist). And the way most people go is they create a character, then when they get the whitelist. Then, they make them qualified for head roles. Even ones who play heads on other servers, for example Jamini. Nasir was suspended as an IC reasoning for him not being a head of staff. And finally, it isn't meant to dictate who Nanotrasen deems worthy of Head of Staff. It's just who they deem worthy of being granted a senior title. Senior Engineers are more likely to be chosen because they're older meaning they have more experience. It was also discussed about raising it to fourty.

Welcome fellow Auroran. You're probably wondering what it is today in suggesting. My suggestion today isn't about balance and it isn't about something that's missing that we really need. It's about a little mechanic that me and a couple staff members thought was a nice one. I came up with the idea in Msay in the last round I played today, Senior Crewmembers, but you're probably thinking, but Tool we already have those don't we? Yes we do mister Auroran, but this is a bit different. Basic idea: So, here's the basic principle. If a Whitelisted(Head) player creates a character that is over thirty, is a Doctor, Engineer, Security Officer or Researcher and if the created character is over thirty years of age(This could go up, but it's mostly just serving a purpose currently) then that character will be given the Senior Doctor, Senior Engineer, Senior Officer or Senior Researcher title, respectively. Purposes 1. Designating Head able characters. Of course any character can become a head of a department, but this would basically make crew aware of characters that are Whitelisted, meaning they would be looked at more favourably for Acting Heads of Staff(but this isn't mandatory, it'd just be an option. The choice still lies with the person promoting the acting heads, but this would show them who's Whitelisted so if they haven't got better ideas, they can offer it to the Senior crew member) 2. Providing new players with a mentor Heads of Staff are often busy being well.. Heads of staff. Which often means they're too busy to train newer players, but these Senior staff members would be looked at more preferably for the new crew members. You look around for someone to train you but they're all the same rank as you except that senior engineer who's suiting up now. They'd be trusted to look after newer players as we Whitelisted players should already be doing. 3. Providing a new dynamic to roleplay Think about it. You'd have basically supervisors in the departments who could take charge in the absence of an actual Head of Department. You'd have people who the Heads of Departments could trust more and give more responsibility to. People who newer players and characters could look up to, that are recognised by Nanotrasen. Extra Comments: One thing to remember is it wouldn't give all Whitelisted players a senior title, just the ones who meet the age and job criteria. Oh and they'd get no extra access from these job titles. One idea was to make it an option for Whitelisted players to choose as their job title/job Anyway tell me what you think!? But please, I want a friendly discussion, anything other than that will result in the thread being locked down.

I wish spiders were more of a threat I agree, because currently everyone and their dog picks up a pen and goes after them. Oh and on the note of AI mobs, I used to spawn re SPC things to attack ERP'ers xD

I laughed xD and I'll get the two race lore finished for tomorrow night

I'll join up

I do. glares at Frances

Bye Raz-Hackie my old friend.

I'm actually tempted to buy it, but everyone seemed to lose interest in it so fast I'm not sure it's worth the buy, advice?

Hi.

Cricket and Tennis mostly, other than that. Literally nothing else.

Voltage is an excellent candidate for this IMO. He's a brilliant roleplayer(not that it matters much). He's been with the server for a long time and is well versed with the rules because of it. Although I tease Voltage and vice versa I actually consider him one of the better candidates for Moderator, he's serious when he needs to be, can have a joke if it's the time, I've never seen him get overly hostile or aggressive and to be fair he was a trial mod a long time ago, I think the only reason he didn't get accepted when we had him as a trial mod before was because we thought he was a good candidate but we liked the other good candidates more.(What terrible people we were) either way this app has my endorsement.

((Have to say thank you for using one of my Skrell religions. We'll speak again when it's time to process this, all round a good app as far as I'm concerned))

Between 6-25

I have, they have absinthe, Brandy and Gin on tap at the bar I used to go to. But any-way... If it's the "Woo, hop the bar and get wasted" mentality you're worried about, then I highly doubt a handful of more drink options will contribute or detract from that. If you're talking about the shot taps then yeah. I was more referring to taps similar to draught and post-mix. But, In relations to the booze dispenser I do miss us having to pour everything from the bottle, so I think it's go hard or go home here. Might as well add all of it to the dispenser if we've got most of it.

Skrell fathers aren't expected to look after children and Skrell mothers can only give birth once due to a genetic defect the Skrell did to themselves to stop over population. Skrell mothers care for their children whereas fathers usually leave shortly after the conception. Hope this helps?

Sadly never interacted with him as far as I'm aware. But accepted.

Accepted. Hope you enjoy being a Skrell.

Had an issue revolving the applicant in question when it was just me and Conspire on last night. Applicant decided to set ALL of security, the HoP and the captain to arrest and then left them like that, until a very helpful warden(TK) fixed the issue.

Alright well the second one is gone now yeah?

I used to feel the same way about antags as LK did, I despised them. But since my return I've got the mindset that I prefer the action over the chairs, the RP it creates can be much more interesting. Anyway LK old friend, you've been missed and it'll be good to see you back on the server.
