Captain (28/37)

  1. Refreshed myself on Dominia lore again. For the item itself, I'm kind of viewing it as a bit of a contrived way to have the book. You've always had them keep it. They happened to be at the battle of San Collete and the book got damaged, but that's not really so significant here? You should think of how their Solarian heritage might factor into this beyond just serving in the marines and burning their prized possession. Is the book even orthodox? Maybe her father had drastically different views and wrote that within, due to their time in Solarian space. Essentially, their background ought to matter more to convince me this wouldn't be a Dominian who is ostensibly Solarian for vague reasons. This is even more important here, because it makes little sense to be a Tribunalist who isn't a Dominian citizen already. At best, you're representing an extremely niche Solarian. Now unfortunately, circumventing the mechanical inability to get the book if you're not Dominian is not in our interest at the moment. My suggestion to you if you're really intent on this as a concept is to ask human lore about it on the lore discord (not the lore master, who is trigonex). My personal suggestion is that you just say the codex is in their dorm if you're really set on this. With that in mind this is denied and that's going to be the case for other items you may try to apply with on this character unless it's not a codex and the reasoning is solid enough. Give that a few weeks to think about, if you want to do that.
  2. You blocked me, and I know this because I did attempt to send you a message first regarding your character. After this it came to my attention you were actively complaining about the matter to other staff members, so it did fall to them to say something in my stead. Complaining about that is hypocritical. I was unblocked shortly after the message was relayed for you to express your discontent, but I don't really care to be blocked/unblocked on a whim as you need me. I also don't care to speak with you anymore in general now. You haven't been a pleasant person and while I can believe that you may mean well to others in general, you have a tendency to blame others for your mistakes or fabricate their guilt where there is none. You may remember when you snapped at me for "making you look at bad" by "spawning in items" for an antag in front of you and then backpedaled and apologized when you realized... traitors have uplinks and the guy used that. The worry about how you're viewed is a common theme here and it's no excuse to treat others badly. The day I banned you over your behavior in the Air Konyang round was also the first day I even learned you had issues with Mel. I was more than a little confused to see you squarely blame it on her as an example of some conspiracy against you when you had your conversation with Lmwevil/Squidqueen. While you're probably still not going to believe it, the idea that I needed to be convinced to delete your character or that anyone else was involved in it is completely wrong. After I banned you initially, I did a more thorough review of your machinist in the past to see if the character itself has been a problem. I haven't really been on the server much since December of last year so I wanted to do my due diligence. Mel's only contribution to that was saying she didn't really want to open a ticket with you during that round. Her silence was contrasted with your firm belief she was behind it all and the need to tell others about it. Your behavior is also why I've removed you from the game. I felt fully justified over it then and even more so now seeing as how you've made a staff complaint on the person who wanted nothing to do with you rather than one who banned you in the first place. I didn't even know you made a complaint on her until after I browsed the forum to see the latest custom item application today. Targeted harassment really disgusts me and I'm not about to let it slide for anyone who does it. The TL:DR is that you, solely, are responsible for this.
  3. If you'd like an item that represents your characters faith, think of something that wouldn't be common. Something special to them. An item that everyone can reasonably have is better put into the loadout, not given as a custom item. With that in mind, the application is denied.
  4. The application is denied, but I encourage you to still think of ways you might be able to represent your character in a less high profile manner if you like the idea of having an item that tells a story.
  5. Gifts have been accepted in the past although it's not always a very interesting reason and in this case I think your item could go further if you had more a story to it than just, your character gave someone something and they paid it back in an excessive manner. Other than that, I'm a bit a leery of letting the Elrya holoclothing mechanics and aesthetic go to other factions. I'd ask if there's any other methods you can think of here. We've had in the past, things such as a doublesided cloak to still give it multiple icon states.
  6. I did tell you the reason, but as a refresher, I job banned you with the AI team's blessing because after that round, we did not want to have you active as an AI on any other rounds while you argued your case to the AI whitelist team. They ended up telling you what I did, that your actions were not justified. Afterward, your whitelist was stripped and they asked another admin to lift the ban itself. It seems that did not happen, so I'll correct it. At least in the moment, you need to be willing to listen to us when we tell you "No, do not do this." You escalated your own actions and remained argumentative until there was no higher team to appeal to. I'll trust things will be different now.
  7. It's hard to believe that the SCC, already having a rocky relationship with the Sol alliance, is going to allow a looted flag branded with Szlazi's fleet. The Southern Military District was actively hostile to Biesel and engaged their ships and raided their territory for most of its existence. Near the end they did have a ceasefire, though that doesn't quite make up for it. That makes it harder to justify versus one of the wildland states that wasn't so belligerent. Still discussing it for now, but that's my take at the moment.
  8. This is archived as it hasn't had any responses in nearly a year. You can message the custom item team if you're interested in revisiting it.
  9. I like the item. I think we just need to wait to see what happens with the lore application if that will end up affecting aspects of it.
  10. The application can't go forward due to the player being banned at the moment, so it is being denied.
  11. The ban should be lifted, courtesy of sadkermit. Would have been done sooner, but I've been suffering internet issues and wasn't able to actually join the server to do it myself. I'll leave the unban request up for now so you have time to let me know if it's not working.
