I think it should have dedicated storage for xenoarchaeology stuff on the exterior. Pulling that stuff through the airlock is a pain in the butt.

BYOND Key: ElizabethDame/FlyBrokenWings Staff BYOND Key: youjustgotowened Game ID: cwu-dlSQ - Probably Reason for complaint: I personally believe the 7-day ban was a bit too harsh or at least, that it should've been just a plain whitelist strip. I won't refute that my actions that round weren't questionable. I was semi-afk before the fighting started, in the bar. Barely responding to people until I saw the princess character pulled past the bar counter and the shutters closed. Not being to follow, I walked into the dining hall, saw the fighting and someone being attacked and then joined in, even if only momentarily before leaving to run off. When I probably shouldn't have even moved into the dining hall in the first place, or at least, not stayed there as long as I did using the integrated drill to smack the antag even in defence of another. That probably speaks to my inability to play a synthetic to the degree the whitelist wants. Though, still, I don't think I really did anything worthy of a seven-day ban when most of the more recent warnings directed at the character weren't for reasons that affected the given rounds too poorly. I only recently came to the server and I'm probably coming at it the wrong way, due to me remembering the constrictions of the setting and server to be looser than they are with what you can do. Evidence/logs/etc: N/A Additional remarks: N/A

Currently, the smeltery can well, smelt faster than it can transport the materials. Leaving the miners waiting for up to half an hour if they do not manually stack from the pile for all of the ore to have been put through the stacking machine. If the conveyors merged the materials into stacks, it would simplify and speed up the process significantly.

Having been getting into toying with circuits, I've noticed how utterly annoying it can be to make several devices that all do the same thing. My idea, I think at least, would be a relatively simple solution that doesn't hinge on the idea of just having copy/paste system for the whole assembly and its contents. I think if it's the same type of part, clicking one against another should copy its information to the other. Like, for a beeper - It'd copy its sound and the volume, etc - etc.

I think it *would* look nice as an option, but it would definitely need some markings to go along with it, honestly. The TV heads at least have the screens for customization.

This is not good for the eyes

The tiles, and furniture especially in the kitchen are eye-piercingly a bad mixture. The sprites are *too* white.

That I made it personal. Referred to some of them as asshats, and as you're saying, doubled down and refused to take fault and apologize. Which I'm going to amend now by apologizing properly. I'm sorry. My phrasing was bad, and I really should've not made it personal. I won't repeat this mistake again in the future.

BYOND Key: ElizabethDame Total Ban Length: Permanent Ban Banning staff member's Key: Readthisnameplz Reason of Ban: Openly Racist Reason for Appeal: It started as a poorly phrased response to someone talking about how poorly non-citizens are treated in Elyra lore-wise. Ending with me, spurred on by someone else's response making a comment that could've been taken as a racist remark. Especially, after I myself used my own real-life and non-game experience to try and validate it. By using the word "migrant" I never meant to refer to any specific group and realistically, should've either not let the conversation go on or have chosen far better better words and used better phrasing to have a more civil discussion on the matter. Either way, I'll make sure to not have a repeat of this if I am unbanned. And generally, be wiser with what I say on the discord as a whole.

Librarian main here. Yeah, I know I'm disgusting. Anywho, I think that'd be great! Librarians lack a lot of things to do. I could see room made easily if you A : Condensed the shelves into one of each type, B : Removed the Reading Room for extra space, or C : Removed the shelves and just kept it to the one public computer which has access to all the books already, which already invalidates the meager selection of 3 books per shelf.

As someone who played on Sojourn, the whacky spinoff server using modified Eris code - The magnet pulls in trash, yes, but our current trash system sucks ass in comparison to what they have. That pretty much means any value it would add would ultimately be rather meh.

I think the event was overall rather uninteresting as it was as someone said from the staff a "stress test for the weapons". Still though, my biggest issue was with the sounds that came with the weapons. They were grating, and after like an hour of them they actually were bringing on a head-ache. Otherwise, there seems to be a perhaps unintentional bug where the magboots cannot keep you up while the ship maneuvers.

BYOND Key: ElizabethDame Character Names: BORE GM-9 (Cyborg) and Cassidy Lowner Species you are applying to play: IPC What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Exempt Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes Please provide well-articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph format. One paragraph minimum per question. Why do you wish to play this specific race: No matter the SS13 server, show/movie, or even separate game, I have always found myself drawn to synthetics, cyborgs, and any other sort of robotic object or creature of varying competence and intelligence. Overall, their execution is quite varied, and when it comes to the IPCs of Aurora I find them to be far more alluring than any of the other races I’ve seen. Of course, this wasn’t the case at first, after all, I did play a rather large amount of cyborg prior to applying, which while fun didn’t provide too much enjoyment in comparison to what I had anticipated. Nevertheless, there were parts with other players, specifically people who played IPCs that I did enjoy considerably. - Besides this, to look back on my previous application which got rejected, I still want to clarify that I do still want to build on what I had started with my first real character BORE GM-9, and build on it with the next character I have planned without the limitations that had stopped me from experimenting at all with how I acted from round to round. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: As the only playable humanoid synthetic race currently on Aurora, the IPCs are in a unique position to provide a side of roleplay that might otherwise not be experienced even with the presence of the more limited cyborgs/robots. After all, while they might be logical like the cyborgs, unlike them, they’re far more in control of what they can and are willing to do. - Of course, this doesn’t mean that they’re exempt from things like lawsets, after all, they’re still synthetics, and such a possibility can still be played out for all to see on the character creator’s whim. The point is that in my viewpoint, they fit their position quite well. A group of beings on the verge of humanity, partially considered to be with souls by some, yet nevertheless shunned by others as only machines without any sort of merit. They’re malleable, as are the ways they can be played out personality-wise. Character Name: CILES NT-193 Please provide a short backstory for this character : Built around the date of 26/02/2461 after an order was sent to Hephaestus from NanoTrasen, the IPC known as CILES NT-193 was eventually manufactured and fully completed before being sent off to the NSS Upsilon. On NSS Upsilon, CILES NT-193 was programmed accordingly with the right datasets before being once more sent off elsewhere. They were promptly sent to a department aboard the ship, one filled the researchers which they were meant to assist. - The first few weeks began with CILES easing into their job and their new existence. They mostly spent it understanding life beyond the programming they were initially built with. After these initial weeks, they began to hear murmurs of other researchers behind their back. Of the some phrases caught here and there, CILES pieced together them despising CILES for not being the replacement they wanted. The respected, old, freethinking and knowledgeable researcher Skrell that's been replaced by a new, corporate slave work machine that cared not much for them outside of work. - Seemingly the researchers were correct. CILES continued working as if nothing had changed, more or less as if they had heard nothing at all, but the remarks while not as prominent with time still remained a constant presence. There was an assumption within CILES, a logical one which stated that perhaps when their work was finally recognized by the corporation itself that there’d be a chance, that perhaps the vocal part of the team would finally accept them. - It would be at least a year until such notice was given, and they were given enough autonomy within the lab by the overseeing director to strike out on personal projects, somewhere around the year of 2462. Though this in general had the opposite effect in some regards of what they thought would happen, as some of the aforementioned researchers only became more spiteful, even with some of the researchers having their opinion shift on CILES or others overall just being reassigned to other groups and locales. Nevertheless even as minor of a minority as they were, they still antagonized CILES when they could, always making their disapproval rather known to them and the rest of the department. - As the year 2463 rolled around, an archaeological project of some note would come to light, one which at the time needed additional hands. The science team that CILES currently worked with decided this would be a great way to truly remove them and replace them with someone better. They most likely thought this would be a good way of having them away for a while, or even destroyed. After all, they are an IPC programmed precisely for scientific research, not for archaeological studying. Of course, knowing their stance CILES had considered not going along with it, but they also considered if doing so might ease their ire by at least a little bit when she finally returned, leading to an overall smoother, more efficient workplace experience. - CILES went into it like they would any other assignment, ready to assist even if they thought of it as a mere distraction from the work they had put aside for the time being. They expected little, yet found themselves in their own way finding the trip to be quite pleasant, and the work rewarding. More-so, the few members of the dig who did give her their thoughts were rather kind in their wording and offered a bit of help in learning certain tricks that a mere dataset could not openly provide. By the end of it, an offer would be extended to her, one in which involved her joining that group instead, the xenoarchaeological team. An offer she accepted candidly knowing the scrutiny that awaited her if she remained with her old group. Through a bit of bureaucracy, she’d soon find herself working with the newer group until her eventual transfer to the Horizon. What do you like about this character? : As I rewrote CILES for my second attempt at the IPC app, I decided to lean more into the discrimination that might come with them being an IPC. While perhaps annoyed, they still nevertheless work for the betterment of the corporation, after all, they are still owned by it. - CILES is loyal of course, and I doubt that will change by much when and if I play this character. - Nevertheless, I hope to explore the themes present in the backstory more ingame as well with this character. How would you rate your role-playing ability? : Generally speaking, I would say that I’m rather good at roleplaying as I’ve had thousands of hours to practice it, specifically on other SS13 servers or games like Neverwinter, FFXIV, and Project Zomboid. Nevertheless, I am not a native English speaker and so my literacy does naturally drop by the time I usually play as an Eastern European. Overall I don’t think anyone would describe me as bad at it, though there might some criticism at times. Notes: I hope to play this character as either a scientist/xenoarcheologist mixture.

BYOND Key: ElizabethDame Character Names: BORE GM-9 Species you are applying to play: IPC What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Exempt Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yeppers Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph format. One paragraph minimum per question. Why do you wish to play this specific race: Robots or android, I’ve generally enjoyed both in most mediums for how they vary from place to place, but overall carry that certain charm of a synthetic creature. It’s why I gravitated toward playing Cyborg when I first joined, specifically as a robot, chip-brain, or what-not. Playing an unfeeling machine, that was my goal at first, but as I gravitated into the character I started playing them more friendly in a sense. Even though they didn’t consider anyone friends per say, they still kept those who considered themselves as such closer than most for their usefulness. I want to generally carry this over to my next character, presumably this one. I want to build on what I have in my head further while not limiting myself as much as a cyborg. I’ve had fun as one of course, but the lacking lore and possible removal has made look to other possible avenues. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Unlike humans, robots, androids, and IPCs aren’t as limited by their emotions. They’re logical, and while they might mimic emotions, it’s generally for the satisfaction or comfort of living beings, which they themselves are not. Character Name: CILES NT-913 Please provide a short backstory for this character (Approximately two paragraphs) - CILES NT-913 was made during the year 2461 by Nanotrasen within the confines of the planet mars, specifically to assist with the ongoing research of phoron and the alternate means by which it could be procured. While generally reclusive outside of their department, they’d nevertheless work hard when within it to accomplish company goals. That is at least until The Violet Dawn Explosion occurred, and they had found themselves dislocated from a familiar place and into one more unfamiliar. That being said, this had hardly struck them deep, and they were back to working towards the next corporate agenda, whatever it had been. Such was the routine for a good while, generally unchanging, much like themself. Their focus was purely corporate, and even as jobs shifted, they themselves specialized in one specific field, nothing much changed about their demeanor and overall personality. They were still as robotic as when they came off the production line, perhaps more than some. After all, why bother socializing when it is an overall net loss for productivity as a whole? Work first, banter later. What do you like about this character? Describe what you like about this character While generally not very fleshed out as of now, I do think they’d be promising to roleplay. The mere idea of roleplaying a work-focused, glorified corporate drone who’s more focused on the state of the Horizon and perhaps Nanotrasen beyond is one thing that makes giddy, and the fact that they might eventually change through interaction is another. How would you rate your role-playing ability? Generally speaking, I would say that I’m rather good at roleplaying as I’ve had thousands of hours to practice it, specifically on other SS13 servers or games like Neverwinter, FFXIV, and Project Zomboid. Nevertheless, I am not a native English speaker and so my literacy does naturally drop by the time I usually play as an Eastern European. Overall I don’t think anyone would describe me as bad at it, though there might some criticism at times. Notes: I hope to play this character as either a scientist/xenoarcheologist mixture, or maybe even xenobotanist/xenoarcheologist mixture.
