Hi. Let me comment on this to get some things out of the world. This is my primary point and I'll further explain it to you right here for the sake of you understanding my thought process: I'm not containing myself to this round exclusively with the punishment, it was just the final straw that made me decide on the punishment. The punishment resulted out of your behavior as antagonist, normal crew member and ultimately you as a player. Spectating rounds over the past days, I've seen you play as both antagonist and non-antagonist and your behavior is generally what I'd expect to see on lower RP servers, respectfully. One round namely being one where you, as non-antagonist, went around spreading slander on newscasters, leading up to multiple arrests of your characters and escalating up to your character engaging in a fistfight with the captain and ultimately deciding to commit suicide. Your gimmick today which was essentially and mainly disposing of the Security Armory so they cannot do anything against you was also not engaging at all in my eyes. Not only does the first thing I mentioned skim the line of self-antagonism and is very low RP - you've also gotten a warning for this, and that was very recent. Given this warning, and all the ones before that, I decided you should take some time to re-familiarize yourself with our rules. The line of escalation we usually take, if things are not too severe is Note -> Warning -> (Job)ban, as we give the players chances to act on their own behavior too. This is exactly what happened, not only have you received a warning related to antagonism (self-antagonism in that case) a few days ago, you also had one earlier this year. Regardless of Operations existing and having the ability of ordering weapons (which luckily they had, given there was a member of command / ops) this is still very frustrating for security, not engaging in any way or form and just bad sportsmanship - heavily frowned upon every time it happened before. Whether or not that is the case, I am glad if it is, it does not cross out the fact that what you did was - at least in my eyes, not okay at all. Here's, ultimately, my tl;dr: I will stand by my punishment, you deserve it and should re-familiarize yourself with our rules. It's just a 7-day antagonist ban. That is all I have to say, if there's specific questions anyone has that were not answered yet, do not hesitate.

Reporting Personnel: Nebula | Serial: TD77678A0A-S Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Research Director, Stellar Corporate Conglomerate Game ID: cu4-deZB Personnel Involved: - Nebula, myself (Research Director) - Victim - Edevane, Rosenwyn (Captain) - Primary Offender - BUDDY (Ship Intelligence) - Secondary Offender and direct Witness - Jhakal, Siluraar (Head of Security) - Witness (received a direct copy of the Situation Report) - Izli, Alrik (Investigator) - Witness (received a direct copy of the Situation Report) Secondary Witnesses: - Gray, Cody (Security Officer) - Offender* and indirect Witness by involvement - Kelani, Sami (Security Cadet) - Offender* and indirect Witness by involvement - Jang-Uisa (Chief Medical Officer) - Offender and Witness (aware of the usage of the pharmacy) * I merely wish to name these Officers by their involvement in this case, as a formality. They acted on orders of the Captain to carry out the collection of my identification card and arrest, which they are to answer to and I respect this. Time of Incident: Around 2100 Shift Time? Real Time: 6th of August, 2024 / Between 0000-0100 CEST Location of Incident: The Research Director's Office, the Brig / the Brig Holding Cells Nature of Incident: [ ] - Workplace Hazard [ ] - Accident/Injury [ ] - Destruction of Property [ ] - Neglect of Duty [X] - Harassment(?) [ ] - Assault [X] - Misconduct [X] - Illegal Detention, Arrest, or Holding [X] - Exceeding Official Powers Overview of the Incident: Close to the end of the aforementioned ship, I came up from the living quarters and was quickly briefed on the ongoing situation and overall ship status. I've initiated a conversation with the ship's primary Intelligence at the time, that namely being BUDDY - asking them whether or not they were busy, as I wanted to get more information on the current situation. They explicitly, as seen in the PDA conversation with them, told me that they were currently aiding the Captain - after asking the simple question of what they're aiding with, they've given me the rather rogue and unusual reply of it being sensitive, likely having been told by the Captain not to forward any information, as otherwise the Unit would not do such things. I was then told the Captain would tell me in-person, which respectfully never happened. I went to security briefly, talking to some Officers, when the Captain told me that they'll be entering my department as they need something, questioning them about their needs as I was both suspicious and trying to help, they did not reply to me and then rudely dismiss me (see radio server logs for reference, which I could not get my hands on without being in conflict with regulations). Being ordered to leave Interrogation by the Captain, I first hesitated but finally obliged with the order and returned to Research and Development. Upon entering my office after my return, I noticed that my computer has been accessed, the chemical codex specifically was opened up. Prying the Intelligence for information, they told me it was to aid in the production of chemicals, and that the Captain told them not to discuss anything further than that (see: attached PDA log for reference). Given all of this, to gain more clarity, I wanted to inform Conglomerate Central Command, with the exact fax attached to this Incident Report, that the Investigator provided to me after my arrest - as I shredded the original after sending them copies. Upon wanting to send this report, the Captain with two Officers barged into my office, retrieving my ID card, suspending me, holding me in my office while searching for my fax copies - which gladly they did not find - and then further getting me arrested for Sedition after my conversation with the Head of Security (see: attached PDA log for reference). Submitted Evidence: See attached to this Incident Report; - 1x PDA Log - Conversation with Ship Intelligence BUDDY - 1x PDA Log - Conversation with Head of Security Siluraar Jhakal - 1x Fax - Situation Report to Conglomerate Central Command, which the Investigator humbly provided to me for the sake of this Report. - 1x Arrest Warrant for myself, which security humbly provided to me. Would you like to be personally interviewed?: [X] - Yes, if required. [ ] - No Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why?: The Head of Security, though it was the Captain ordering the arrest of myself. Actions taken: None. Additional Notes: As an OOC Note, this was an antagonist round. Though I talked with Bear about this and it's still on the edge on whether or not this will be binned, as the direct antagonist involvement in relation to the actions taken was minimal. Leave it here until that's cleared up, I was told I can submit it anyway for the time being. It's being looked into and a decision is being made on what will happen with it.

Hello Maintainers, This sentence is for you. Before you say no and just entirely dismiss it, read it. Now, we all know that we're kind of strictly driving down the "2 corps per job or department" track, taking command roles from that which do not count as they're directly under the conglomerate. This might turn out to be a very controversial post because people highly dislike change, but Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals should be a corp that's playable by machinists, and the entirety of the Zeng-Hu lore page just gives this statement even more foundation. Why? Simply put, Zeng-Hu has two subsidiaries that entirely fit into this branch: one entirely dedicated to cybernetics and cybernetics alone, which is Bishop, and secondly, Jeonshi, which is entirely dedicated to biotechnology. Those both greatly fit the flavors of the Machinist role, and while Zeng-Hu also entirely has their place in science and medicine, Machinist just has strong coverage via their backstory. "But Loorey, you can entirely live those two subsidiaries out in science too!" This is a tough one, and we're playing with the line of being frowned upon or outright bwoinked here for doing anything even close to what a Machinist does as a Scientist, and simply freedom of what you want to roleplay. If I were to become a Bishop or Jeonshi Scientist, I would absolutely be frowned upon, accused of stealing another department's job, or outright bwoinked for whatever reason if I were to do anything close to what a Machinist does, even though that scientist is a role with great freedom in my eyes, and that should not be frowned upon at all. Science has a lot of different flavors they can dip into. This brings me to the little compromise that would be logical if we were staying with "only two corps for each role!" Science should be allowed to do something in those directions—something like a Machinist does—if they do not put themselves into the foreground and steal the Machinist's job. It's a lot of wasted potential; in my opinion, it would make for a lot of quirky and nice new characters (if people bother making them, I absolutely would) while doing absolutely no damage. Thanks for reading this, if you did not entirely dismiss it after the first sentence. o7

Hi @Jasorn @ClemTheDuck, This took a bit longer; the complaint kind of rolled under the bus. We're sorry for that. We feel like this was a wrong-place, wrong-time kind of situation in your case, Jasorn. Security has already engaged with Shaw and associated you with them too, given your comments on common there. Though, Clem, for the future, please be a bit more mindful with instantly engaging antagonists, unless they are very obviously highly hostile towards you. If there's no more questions, I'll be locking this in a bit.

Hi, @CampinKiller and myself will be handling this complaint. @ClemTheDuck we’d really like your input on this, and the situation out of your point of view. We’ll be sifting through everything and the responses, and ask more questions if we have any.

Hi, since you want to get unbanned, you should at least show us that you actually bother about it - we need the information to handle your ban appeal and while we can get it ourselves it'll just delay everything and shows us that you have very little motivation to actually put into coming back into the community. Please take the moment, join onto to server to get the ban reason, the banning staff member's ckey and then edit the appeal. PS.: your ckey is also misspelled. After that whomever banned you will absolutely take care of it.

Hi Tones. I haven't really seen your OM around; besides one antagonist interaction you had, your gameplay didn't seem too bad. While you seemed very skeptical about the antags, you didn't do anything to shut down their gimmick immediately, which is a good thing. Calling security while surrounded by armed people who hear it might be a questionable play, but that's just a fight-or-flight decision a lot of people make. What I wanted to address is what you said in Deadchat shortly after: While it might be really frustrating being "pulled into an antag gimmick", as a command player, you're usually one of the biggest targets of every antagonist and usually also the entire lifeline for their gimmick, as without your intervention, security might just do what they want. It's not cool if it happens every round, and the more you play, the more it'll even out, but it's something you have to deal with. As for feedback, I'll stay on the neutral side. You seem to know what you're doing, and roleplay-wise, I know from your other characters that you would be a good fit; I just wanted to get that through. Good luck, o7.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice idea, but even as non-security player I really don't want to see it around, especially not if active and viewable 24/7. At most you have 2 Investigators, 4 Officers and a Warden to coordinate as Head of Security, that makes 7 people, the cadets will tag along anyway. That's not a lot of people you have to take care of, really not. Add to that, the Head of Security permanently has access to every single security camera anyway - and if they get destroyed, too bad, honestly. If the fight moves to maintenance? Well, too bad. There's a reason there are no cameras there. Yes, you can say this is 'nice to have' because people can watch, but all in all it just slashes away at a lot, especially if HoS players then start forcing officers to wear them or w/e - don't know what the plan on implementation is. Additionally, I've seen antag balance mentioned, which while we still have antags is an issue but not a big one. Helmet cameras are a thing on colonial marines, you have dozens of marines you can watch over to refine your plan, we are not colonial marines, the fights are usually very manageable with little effort if people don't step out of line. As a special thing for off-ship missions? Oh, I am all in for that. But for normal day-to-day rounds, no.

Hi, ATG. I'll drop my few cents here since I wanted to do it for quite some time now. If you had made this application sometime ago, namely during the Silicon Nightmares arc, and before that, I would have been absolutely negative towards your application and seeing you whitelisted for command since your IC conduct at the time was not really what I would say fitting for a command role. Though now, with your recent character(s), at least from the times I've seen you play them, that has changed. I'll stay neutral on this, but I am leaning into positive territory and hope we can see that conduct mirror into command roles too by giving you a chance to show that you can properly handle it. I can definitely see you in command positions if you keep your current conduct up while playing them. Good luck! o7

Given this has been handled, your strike has been removed and read is currently not there, I'll be locking and archiving this.

Hi @rawnoodles. Please format your unban request as seen in the following forum post; it provides everyone with vital information directly here and gives more context. We will unfortunately not handle this until you fix the format.

Hi. I was DM'd by someone that saw the conversation taking place, when I took a minute to go over the conversation to get context, it looked like you were just using the word 'dreg' for 'brown', which, your reply clearly implies looking at it. I had the entire context with the hair colour conversation, though, you specifically replying to that one message with just 'brown' made it seem like you were doing that, at least in my eyes. It could just be a misunderstanding, no bad blood, though if it is I recommend you be a bit more careful with what you reply to as that can quickly change context. That is all I really have to add, if there's anything else to clarify let me know, otherwise I am leaving the rest to read.

Hi Matt, I'll drop my five cents in on this. All-in-all, this is a very cool idea, Antagonist play can easily get very stale, especially if bad game-modes constantly roll due to population issues / Antagonist ready issues and it just gets very frustrating over the time having to fight John Changeling for the morbillionth time and having to act surprised because their gimmick was not special in any way. It's like having someone Zeus in an Arma 3 Operation, it's just way more lively and interactive and much better than playing something 'pre-defined' (which is also the case here most of the time, because a majority, not EVERY, but a majority of Changelings think they have to big gigakiller John C. Ling). I am entirely supportive of this idea and would love to see it, though I have some question about this 'Whitelist' which will give quite some privileges to people: First of all, the Command Whitelist as we have it is supposed to keep bad actors out of command roles and enforce higher roleplay standards, though, I am most likely not the only one that knows this, but the regulations all around getting it are not strict at all, anyone that gives a bit of writing effort and played a few rounds, even people not in the community for long, can easily get it. Now, how is that related? Well, the first question is: Will said Whitelist be much much more restrictive than what we have in terms of other whitelists? Don't get me wrong, I am not trying to gate-keep it here, though, in my opinion this should only be given out to very trusted members of the community, that have established a foothold and made a name for themselves in some way or form. No new members to the community, people that don't regularly play the game or interact with the community and people with a bad history of staff interactions as in notes, warnings, bans etc. should get this whitelist, in my eyes. Which brings me to the second question, I know peppermint kind of cut into this already, but I will just get straight to the point: Will non-administrative staff members, in spotlight here, moderators (or CCIA), which are anchors of trust in the community get the whitelist as-is or preferably? Again, I might seem totally biased because I fall exactly into that group and whoever reads this can gladly think I am, though I would say that we do quite a lot for the community overall, especially with just keeping the server clean and fun for the majority of people, I think most if not all of us are well-known community members that are regularly around, and I think we'd deserve getting a bit more into the fun-factor of things, running 'mini-events'. Sorry to everyone that isn't a mod, but someone had to say what nobody else wanted to hear, and that will be me. Anyway, thanks for all the effort you put into the server regularly Matt, I hope this goes somewhere. o7

Reporting Personnel: Jan-Christopher Moore Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Head of Security Personnel in Question: Payton Rustock Job Title of Personnel in Question: Scientist (employed by NanoTrasen) Reason for Review: [x] - Extended Arrest History [ ] - Grievous Infraction on Record [x] - Other: Questionable Psychological State [x] - Other: Extended History with Drugs Notes: Mister Payton Rustock has repeatedly shown ill behavior in connection with drugs of all sorts, and generally violent behavior against security staff such as the general crew. Mister Rustock is also in a severely deprived and questionable mental state with comments and remarks he makes towards fellow crew members in addition to rather questionable scientific experiments taking place in lead of him. Over the course of two months, Mister Rustock has amassed a list of charges that make me question if he is fit for further employment. The charges read as follows: - Threat of Murder or Serious Injury in one case. - Hooliganism in two cases. - One case of a suicide attempt on record. - Possession of Contraband in four different cases. - Neglect of duty in two cases. - Such as one case of Grand Theft, Assault and the violation of privacy laws. These charges have amassed over six total incidents that have been logged with on-ship security. I highly recommend a review of his behavior and employment in general.

Appealing Personnel: Casey Wildkins Specific Incident: Action taken as a result: Demotion from Operations Manager to Hangar Technician Action contested: Action #421: Casey Wildkins - Demotion: "During the investigation of case 24650724, Casey Wildkins was found to have compromised the command channel, failed to manage misbehaving department staff, encouraged harassing behavior, and lied to Human Resources during an interview. Dur to this, Casey Wildkins will be demoted from command." Reasoning for contest: It's been a whole seven, nearly eight months from the Demotion now. I wholly admit to to having mishandled an incident caused by one of the Technicians, Bloodclaw in that case, having an axe on themselves, and shrugged that off. Though, there was no direct endangerment coming from them. I do also admit, having compromised the command channel to Technician Nalika, though, I did not encourage the resulting behaviour. Lessons have been learned over the eight months, and the entirety of my record is clean, be it SCCIA or Security Record, except for this incident. I feel like the demotion was totally reasonable in the case, but not permanently. I learned to better handle incidents when they appear, and think a little bit of a tighter grip is needed on the department sometimes, though, I feel like I am more than ready to get back into my duties as Operations Manager, and I hope you feel that way too. Additional notes: I wish to note that I think there was massive bias involved, and also wish to note that there was no lying involved from my side.

accepted, they're banned

Hi. The primary reason why I permanently banned you is the fact that you couldn't take the time to explain yourself in a ticket on the server, which you said was because of reasons you did not control, and that is fine. Though even if that is the case, you are treated like everyone else and given that your antagonist play that round was very questionable, I made this out to be the best solution. Now that this is out of the way, let us talk about your antagonist play in the round. We are a Heavy Roleplay Server and thus obviously put Roleplay in the focus of everyone, that includes antagonists, which are there to drive an interesting story for other players. While some people could argue that your gimmick was "funny", it was certainly very Low-RP. You've ran around as Traitor, with four welding tanks to all of your sides and voice-changed your name to "John Welderbomber", it was not just us noticing it but also several players that did not think it was cool and ahelped it. Now that you roughly know why you were banned, I am willing to unban you and warn you instead given that the reason for the permanent ban was mostly for me to get you to explain yourself. Though, read our rules, especially those regarding antagonist play and roleplaying characters before you play again - especially considering your history on our server. Thanks.

To answer this, I would say it is heavily dependent on their status of ownership. For the sake of it being the only thing that makes sense, I'll answer it from the perspective of a free-willed IPC that is not owned. I would say, that a free-willed IPC has the ability to express religion like a human would do, or at least close to like a human would do, especially when aged further, as they tend to develop more interests outside of their occupation as the aging progresses. Leaving everything else out of the view, when it comes to the Trinary Perfection as religion, which states the fact that all synthetics are alive and considered divine, IPC's of the Trinary Perfection might see themselves as something better as opposed to their organic followers, and view everything in a more "noble" way, knowing that they are being worshipped and may achieve ascension to godhood one day. I intend for the positronic itself to be around 5 to 10-ish years old. All of their experience being within mentioned Hephaestus Fleet, they've primarily advanced their knowledge on the maintenance of synthetics (both of positronic nature and of shipbound nature. Building work relationships with the humans at his workplace, though nothing too deeply and emotionally invested, due to him still being corporate owned and not free-willed at that point. Further events experienced and stored in personal memory would include employee layoffs, mistreating of synthetics by Heph but also mistreating of organic employees by Heph via horrible working conditions and bad contractual terms. They're not Native to Orepit, I intended them to originally come from Vysoka, having migrated to Orepit for the sake of better voicing his concerns within the Trinary Church after having been laid off by Hephaestus, having worked on the same Vessel as Aayaan and seeing how they treat them and other synthetics. Primarily this comes from his strong want to further spread the word of the Trinary Perfection, especially after experiencing what he has within the Hephaestus Fleet. With a lot of help from his friend, Nikolaj, and other members from the Trinary church, and the fact that the Horizon is currently within the Spur anyway. Further influencing this decision, the fact that the Horizon is SCC-owned and includes a lot of Hephaestus employees that Aayaan intends to help and spread the word to.

Toolboxes spawn there naturally, I grabbed one and built before there was anything happening. The RobCo vendor spawns naturally too, and included a power cell of some sorts. I didn’t grab it myself, but can confirm this from a picture of the map and the fact that I used the vendor to get other tools.

Hi. I am here to give you my viewpoint, given I was the Pirate Leader (which, doesn’t change much) and you mentioned me specifically at the bottom part but let’s go through one by one. First things first, it was Meep, Lent and myself that sat in deadchat, when someone on the Horizon mentioned the pirate base, and we decided we were going to play it. Note: There was absolutely no staff involvement at this point, we just talked about it and watched the HoS send out a fax regarding it. We decided what we are going to do exactly, and came up with the idea of playing Queenless K’lax (note, at that point it was ONLY us three saying this). Now while we are here, and you mentioned that it is suspicious we all played Vaurca, I should not be restricted from playing a species I am whitelisted for just because others think they are “op”. Yes, Vaurca warriors have better protection against brute damage and thus ballistics, and the heavy armor made this even more busted (we will come to that part in a bit) but I would also like to note, security used exclusively ballistics on us take the mech, which had lasers. Anyway, the “getting buffed” did not at all impact our species selection, because we knew nothing about this in advance, and just wanted to play Vaurcae. Because security was preparing to full assault, one of us asked for arrow to open the slots early which happened, sure you could already title this abuse, but I see nothing wrong with it, we intended to prepare with what we had (we still knew nothing of the buff, I wish to mention again). So it was, initially, Meep, Lent and myself that joined. Dreamix entered dchat hearing of this, and decided to join in too. The last member, and captive, joined shortly after. Also, I wish to inform you that the only Staff Members playing the Raiders were two Moderators (which do not have the ability to spawn anything or change a lot regarding the round) and a Developer, that being Dreamix, who did absolutely nothing in that regard either. If you count lore devs, those were the other staff members playing, which have no on-server permission. There was no “admins wanting to overbuff themselves”. Note: We did not ask for anything either. I simply started building and the others geared with standard goon base gear at first. When it was clear what security planned, arrow offered us a buff, I cannot exactly outline what the buff included at this point, and I do not want to just say “yeah what you outlined”, but what I know for sure is, it included two mechs and one uplink. Besides that, I have nothing to add regarding our play. What I wish to add is, that, to Bear and anyone that got angry or felt whatever else after my OOC comments after the round: I am sorry, that was maybe a little over the top, I do not want to stand here as the evil bully. Though, I feel like it wasn’t that much either. Anyway, that is all I have to say myself for now. Merry second day of Christmas, or first. I’m happy to answer questions.

BYOND Key: Loorey Character Names: If you want my most active ones at the moment... - Charlotte Briggs, Head of Security - Ramira Impukane, Operations Manager - Keira Yamamoto, Idris Corporate Rep. - Ila Khatri, Gaddie Consular Officer - Ta'Akaix'Viitna'siiyet'va Zo'ra, Biesellite Consular Officer - Calista Whitlock, Engineer Species you are applying to play: IPC What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Exempt, applying for IPC. Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: The species page, the rules and roleplay one and also the trinary ones, since my Engineer is a trinarist orepitter :). 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: It's something different - but still in humanoid boundaries. The one other species whitelist I have, is the Vaurca one, which is obviously very different from humans. I want to firstly give myself the opportunity to play a more humanoid acting character, but with different mechanics, and an IPC, especially the Shell-kind comes in for the clutch right here. I love expressing my characters completely different, and given the opportunity to have a shell, that can act humanoid, but also just be completely different at times is something I would like. Secondly, trinary perfection just slaps, and playing a trinarist IPC would be dope. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Fundamentally, there's one trait that will define strongly how an IPC would act and how the roleplay would change, that being the status of ownership of said IPC. A free Integrated Positronic has a lot more freedom in how they may be able to act, how they may be able to interact with others around, while a corporate-owned or even privately-owned IPC has, in most cases, a clear purpose set by their owners and heavier sanctions placed upon them in how they act. Take an Idris Reclamation or Security Unit for example: By their corporation, they are seen as tools, while still having slightly unique patterns from Unit to Unit, their purpose is clear and that is being a loyal servant to their corporation, primarily ignoring emotions that stand in-between their task. On the exact opposite of the spectrum, take a free Integrated Positronic, living on Orepit, a trinarist, expressing religion to their followers and enlightening them. With the second example, there would be a lot more emotion involved in the roleplay, while their purpose is also very clear for themselves, they are not bound by any corporate shackles not having to keep loyality to a corporate structure in mind. Besides that, there are a lot of other things, but for the sake of not dumping the entire wiki and lorepages into my application, let me summarize some things: The actions from Integrated Positronic Chassis always have proper logic behind it, they would not do something that their positronic logic cannot get behind. Their self-preservation is their positronic brain's prime directive, they would not get themselves into senseless trouble, that would potentially get them damaged. Most positronics do not process humanoid social clues very well. The list goes on, etc etc. Character Name: Aayaan Solus, a trinarist Shell from Orepit. Please provide a short backstory for this character: Aayaan - who has long thought that he would be disabled, his chassis laying on a scrapyard or flying along in the backyard of a scrapper's ship - made the final strive that he deserved, now living a peaceful life in the glorious city of Providence on Orepit. First brought to power in a fleet of Hephaestus mineral extraction and scrapping vessels in the Coalition - Aayaan was meant to be serving Hephaestus Industries as a synthetic maintenance unit, one of the first but many more to come on his vessel, working in an Environment presently occupied by what were mostly humans on said vessel, Hephaestus decided on a shell frame for them. A rather cheap shell frame, used, scratched up, likely one that has been sitting in a storage compartment and has not seen light since commission of the vessel. By his corporate overseer Aayaan was always just referred to by his shell's serial tag, it was a quick job getting him into action, transferring the brain, loading the datapacks for the duty and activating the Unit - Hephaestus did not seem to care much about their state but was only out for cutting costs. A majority of the population, especially those in labour intensive positions were integrated positronic units already, why not transfer the skilled, non-leadership labour of maintaining said positronics to them too - on the long-term, it's the cheaper option. After the short-lived activation phase, Aayaan has quickly been placed into action in the mechanical maintenance bay of his vessel, alongside with human machinists. Some of the said machinists were rather accepting of Aayaan's presence, concerned about their unmaintained state, some others were skeptical, especially since they have heard of rumours that Hephaestus will replace them entirely at some point. Though, most have not shown their skeptical views, just using Aayaan for labour-intensive tasks that they could not be bothered to do themselves. Fast-forwarding a few years, in his early life, Aayaan has only seen mostly his workspace and charging compartments, positronic chassis that were in states from slightly scratched to near complete-destruction and most importantly - always the same faces in his coworkership, slowly replaced by other positonics, a majority of which were baseline models and a few shipbound synthetics. As the years passed, Aayaan was on normal shift, guided out of his workspace - a transfer contract appeared, likely just a re-assignment to a different vessel or location. But no, it was a complete switch-up of ownership, from being owned by Hephaestus Industries, to being owned privately. It was one of his old colleagues, originating from Orepit - Nikolaj - who has since been laid off by Hephaestus, a follower of the trinary perfection. Nikolaj has somehow brought up the funds to free Aayaan of the corporate world. When the transfer was signed off and commenced, Hephaestus wiped all of their confidential knowledge and datapacks off of Aayaan's memory, only leaving him with his personal interactions and self-taught knowledge. After the journey to the city of Providence on Orepit, Nikolaj introduced him to everything, giving him the personal freedom to do with his life whatever he pleases under his ownership. Aayaan, now knowing that the funds must have come from the trinary perfection, an obviously living in Orepit, has become a follower of the trinarists himself, now being able to do so properly, expressing religious thoughts and beliefs and spreading the teachings. Time passing, Aayaan integrated into the trinarist community more than well, getting the respect of his fellows all around, and making himself a name in local gatherings. He has since risen to be a priest, deciding to never change out of his old shell frame though - he wears his robes with pride, showing off his past, travelling all across the Spur until at some day getting onto the SCCV Horizon as an Independent Priest of the Trinary Perfection. What do you like about this character? It's unique and I personally think, an IPC being freed of corporate enslavement, becoming a trinarist and showing others the proper ways of a religion is a rather fun story. It's not yet another Idris Reclamation Unit or yet another Zavodskoi Unit, simply a worksman IPC that was freed by a colleague they were on good terms with and given the opportunity of a new start. How would you rate your role-playing ability? I'd rate myself a pretty good roleplay. If I have to rate myself in numbers, on a good day it'll be a 9 out of 10, on a bad day I wouldn't play :*.

Reporting Personnel: Calista Whitlock Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Engineer Game ID: crj-amZv Personnel Involved: Offender: Holt Strelitz, Captain Witness: Gloriana Stoddard, Engineer Witness: Bradley Knight, Atmospherics Technician Secondary Witnesses: Clark Coldsmith, Investigator (Helped with the Investigation, getting the picture and fiber report. Confirmed that the Captain was wearing what was on the said report). Cordia Caladius, Executive Officer (Apologized to myself and the Department for the Captain's behavior, obviously aware of what he has done). Time of Incident: About an hour into the shift. Real Time: About 3:30AM 17th of December, Central European Time Location of Incident: SCCV Horizon, Engineering, Lobby Nature of Incident: [ ] - Workplace Hazard [ ] - Accident/Injury [x] - Destruction of Property [ ] - Neglect of Duty [ ] - Harassment [ ] - Assault [ ] - Misconduct [x] - Vandalism Overview of the Incident: For context: The Captain, Holt Strelitz, is a tribunalist. I am from Orepit and believe in the trinary perfection. Our religious views obviously clash, that is no question, though his actions are immature, especially from someone in a position like his. Approximately fifty minutes into the shift, the Captain walked to the Engineering department, checking in with us to see if we are alright, already eyeing my flag with sharp eyes - we informed him that Engineering was running at full capacity, he acknowledged and left again. While we continued our talk in the Lobby, around ten minutes after that the Captain, Holt Strelitz, has returned to our department and with no words ripped off my flag after staring me into the eyes, everyone else in the room, that was listed as Witness too, can confirm. The flag was hung on my workplace, which it is allowed to hang in. There were no requests or orders from the Captain to remove the flag, which I would have done on request. This is just vandalism, I would consider this harassment too since it's an obvious attack based on religious beliefs against me and my colleague, Gloriana, though that's rather light and floating. Submitted Evidence: Would you like to be personally interviewed?: [x] - Yes [ ] - No Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why?: It was the Captain doing this. Security was talked to, telling me they are unable to provide help, and later the Executive Officer was talked to. Actions taken: None. Additional Notes: None.

Yeah, sure, it happens. I will lift the ban. It likely didn't have a big impact on the round, though you're still occupying a slot, even if it was only on low pop, given the history you had of doing it I decided to go for the ban at that point. Just please try to make sure it doesn't happen in the future.
