No, but I find it highly unrealistic to know how to do everything as a Geneticist. From rounds where I've played Medical, I've seen you literally taking patients that could be attended to by an EMT or Doctor, and treating them yourself, and doing surgery on them yourself (even when there's trained Surgeons), and doing triage, instead of...doing Genetics things. Also, the bolded portion just makes that event even worse in my opinion. What sane person would go 'Oh, time to inject myself with this dusty thing found in space that I have no idea what it will do to me, which is a major breach of scientific procedure and ethics!'

Well, I can't support this. Most of my run-ins with Richter involve him being a doctor that can do everything (as a Geneticist), and he constantly disregards his superiors, and chucklefucks in Genetics (I recall you making yourself a hulk last week and naming yourself 'The God Emperor of Mankind'). I don't think he's ready for a Command role unless he improves that glaring issue. -1

I wouldn't say it should be that way if the majority of humanity in the Sol Alliance hadn't voted in a human supremacist group. And just because the initial reaction might be awe, it would devolve into prejudice if said race was seen as low-intelligence/taking the places of humans in the workplace.

Okay, why wouldn't most of humanity be xenophobic to most aliens (except Skrell), when it's taken hundreds of years to even accept humans of different skin color (which isn't even completey true, see: Trump, Mexicans, etc.). That makes no sense. Literally none. What's the point of writing racism into the lore if, when people try to be racist, are told that it wouldn't happen, or would get them fired?

Except NT, as a mega-corporation, wouldn't give two shits about your opinion on other races, so long as the station remains profitable. They also practically control the media in Biesel/Tau Ceti, so it wouldn't be too difficult to keep a lid on it, as well.

Make Aurora Great Again!

Wat? No, cold turkey is one of the best ways to actually quit it (yeah, you get the immediate withdrawal crap, but still a good way to quit fast). Eh, I think going back at all might be an issue, but...not sure.

Hello, Commander. In light of the recent weeb incursions, this council of nations has convened to approve the activation of the WEEB-COM Project. You have been chosen to lead this initiative: to oversee our first, and last, line of defense. Your efforts will have considerable influence on this server's future. We urge you to keep that in mind as you proceed. Good luck, Commander.

I (think) I need access?

Reporting Personnel: Marc Price Rank of Reporting Personnel: Head of Security Personnel Involved: Geneticist Martin Richter (offender), Geneticist Akero'Ceyta Veeta'Pleat (witness), Security Officer Natacha Morgan (witness), Chief Medical Officer Junne Sonnberg (witness), Surgeon Augur (witness), Captain Erransis Tup'Fedranin (witness), Janitor Adolph Hammerstein (witness) Time of Incident: Real time: 1700 CST Location of Incident: Genetics Lab Nature of Incident: [X]Workplace Hazard []Accident/Injury []Destruction of Property [X]Neglect of Duty []Harassment []Assault [X]Misconduct []Other _____ Overview of the Incident: The Chief Medical Officer asked for myself to dispatch Security to the Genetics Lab, as one of her Geneticists was causing a ruckus and disobeying orders. I arrived and ordered extra officers to the area, as the Geneticist, Martin Richter, had injected himself with something that made him into a green, muscular, hulking creature, and named himself 'The God Emperor of Mankind.' He had appeared to destroy a wall on the starboard side of the Genetics Lab prior to my arrival. With him was Adolph Hammerstein, who was referring to Richter as a god, and asking him to genetically enhance him. I asked Richter to surrender himself on account of illegally self-testing, and preparing to illegally modify Adolph Hammerstein, as well as failing to obey the orders of the CMO. Richter refused and became angry, accusing me of making up crimes against him. Eventually, myself, the Captain, and an Officer moved into the room. Hammerstein hid himself in a locker, and Richter surrendered himself. Augur volunteered to try and fix Richter by placing him in the genetics modification device, and I allowed it, given the risk the hulking Richter posed, should he get free. When it was unable to fix Richter, and with the shuttle about to arrive, I escorted Richter to the shuttle, where he was held and transferred to Odin PD after the shuttle arrived. Did you report it to a Head of Staff or IAA? If so, who?: No, as the shuttle was arriving at the conclusion of this incident. Additional notes:

Sorry for not noticing something from over a month ago?

Yeah, but reading the same newscaster stories over and over is tiring. Why not have it come up in the news posted on the forums, similar to the IPC things? (Not in outcome, but how it's actually noticed because it's posted on the forums).

My popcorn business is failing because of this. I have to fund better PC parts somehow, dammit!

Many riot shields IRL have bullet protection. I think it's safe to say they'd have been upgraded since then.

Alliance Strategic Intelligence After Action Report Agent Serial Number: 47F281CH9200 The infiltration of the NanoTrasen research station was a success. My duties as a covered EMT allowed me access to high-priority personnel who were injured, with minimal danger of exposing myself. I could quite literally have stolen high-valued items, or injected a lethal drug into high-ranking personnel, and nobody would notice or think anything of it. An opportunity presented itself early in the shift. The Head of Security of this station had been injured in some way, resulting in a fracture to their hand. I, as the only able Medical personnel at the time, performed surgery on her. During the course of this, I extracted her loyalty implant, and took it for transfer to the researchers and technicians in the labs upon completion of my operation. I believe the loyalty implant may be able to be reverse-engineered into making the implanted individual loyal to the Sol Alliance, or may be useful to ensure field agents are not doubled by counter-intelligence operations. As a final note, while the HoS did notice that the implant had been removed, they did not act on it, and I played dumb, so my cover remains intact should I need to infiltrate another station.

So, it seems to me that Code Red is overused in some situations, or at least left in place for a very long time. Take a round last night, for example. I was a ling who had RP'd being studied by R&D in exchange for protohumans to feed on. After about an hour and a half, I escape, as I know that I cannot trust that I won't be taken, experimented on, and killed by NanoTrasen after the shift is over. I go into hiding after my escape, and tell Security that I will remain peaceful if I am left alone. Security naturally refuses, but they have no idea where I am, so I am fine. However, at around the 2 hour mark, the alert level is raised to Code Red, despite no hostile acts to that point, after breaking out, and an ERT is called shortly after. The Code Red is left until at least the 3.5 hour mark, when I eventually went to the Dorms because I had to sleep. I don't know how long the round went after that. My main issue is, that despite never discovering any violent acts (until over an hour after Code Red was declared), that the RP ground to a halt. I had to stay in the department of the person's body I consumed, as did the rest of that department, and we had nothing to do. We couldn't leave, given the Code Red, and we couldn't test anything, on orders from the Research Director. At this point, I assume the ability to do anything besides stare at a wall and talk to whoever else is with you ground to a halt everywhere except Mining, the Bar, and Security. It was boring, and we couldn't call a transfer vote to end it because of the Code Red. My point is this - there needs to be a limit on the length of a Code Red, or votes should be allowed past the 3 hour mark, even if it's Code Red. If a known alien lifeform escapes, or there's an attack on the station, then it makes sense, but if you cannot find it, or they abandon the attack, then you don't need to keep everyone staring at a wall with nothing to do for a long amount of time, because that ~90 minutes worth of Code Red did nothing except keep people sitting around and looking at a wall.

Yeah, but the difference is, Tajarans are seen as terrorists. Vaucra are not. If you're going to ban Vaucra from Security because of mandibles, then Tajarans probably shouldn't be in any important positions, because of their view as terrorists.

I'm just pointing out that if species like Tajarans are not trusted, and viewed by much of the galaxy to be terrorists (similar to Muslims currently IRL), then I highly doubt they'd have access to any head jobs outside of CE/RD.

Which does bring into account the question of how certain species (read: Tajaran) are trusted to serve as significant heads of staff/in protective roles on the station when they are not respected and viewed as terrorists by many. I can see being a loyalty-implanted role, since it basically mindslaves them to serving the best interests of NT, but other positions have always baffled me.

Except, vast majority of assault and manslaughter charges end up as attempted murder charges. Re: assault, you are displaying, at the very least, intent to seriously harm. If you end up killing them, then it would be considered murder (the likely charge upon return to Biesel being 2nd Degree Murder, as assaults that escalate into a murder are rarely premeditated/grounds for a 1st Degree Murder charge). If you're defending yourself, then that is a different story. Manslaughter does often get charged as Murder, unfortunately, and the few times I've seen/tried to tell the other staff that it's actually Manslaughter, said person usually is ignored or shouted down.

Murder, (off the top of my head), involves premeditated intent to kill. Manslaughter would be killing without premeditated intent.

Hail Me109s. And biplanes. And B-25s.

Hello, Commander. It has come to this council's attention that there is an organization actively undermining LES-COM field operations, holding some...misguided sympathies for the lesbay invaders. Your previous directive to protect all straight life on Aurora has been rescinded.
