Yes Unfortunately yes; retconning her education would be too significant of a change at this point and would undermine of her character development, as well as diminish the significance of her ongoing struggle to be a better person.

BYOND Key: tonesofnones Staff BYOND Key: comradebatman Game ID: N/A Reason for complaint: I've been directed by NM (Comrade Batman) to make a staff complaint to contest my character's permanent removal from the job of hangar technician. I believe it is reasonable for them to work as a hangar technician again. Bit of context: My character, Bava Schoffer, was caught in possession of illegal drugs more than a year ago, which resulted in the termination of her contract and jail time (6 months). After that, she attended a rehabilitation programme (6 months), which is going to end in June 6th, while working as a janitor. I've also contacted NM to ask them if making her a hangar tech again would be possible, which they denied. Thus I'm making this complaint as a way to contest it. Why I want to contest this ruling: 1. I think it is reasonable to let my character back into being a hangar technician. She has already served her sentence, and showed signs of improvement in her behaviour during her rehab. 2. SCC isn't above hiring criminals. Pirates hired by SCC done worse things than drug trafficking. 3. She'd able to generate more profit for her corporation as a hangar technician than as a janitor. And the risk of repeated offence is mitigated by the fact her next arrest will last longer. And she can still be a subject of increased scrutiny during her work as a hangar technician. (This entire paragraph is written to show my reasoning what would a profit-oriented megacorp do) Evidence/logs/etc: Additional remarks: I'm willing to cooperate in this matter, as well as I'd like to know the reasoning against it.

Before working on Horizon? Bed bugs. They were a constant issue back in her Europan lodging Currently? Greimorians, mostly due to their stench and cleaning up required after they've been terminated

1. Well, it has definitely been a process. Bava's character development has been deliberately slow but she is slowly getting there, little by little. But yeah, it's been fun slowly getting there. 2. She absolutely would seconds before getting shot

Hey uhh...... I'm here to ask you all what do you think of Bava, her criminal past and my attempts on redemption arc for her. Additionally, I've decided to do a light-hearted Q&A- ask any questions you have about her and I will answer (bonus points if they are funny)

FUN FACT: A group of British people is called an "Innit" On a more serious note: Bavs here would be a steel-fighting kind of lass (with no pokemon that fit both types at the same time): Galarian Weezing: Bava smokes and isn't really pleasant to be around. Also british. Hitmonchan: it punches real hard Machamp: it punches real hard x2 Tinkatuff: Tinkatink was actually Bava's first Pokemon, that for whatever reason didn't evolve until recently. It's now on a pretty steady corse to become a Tinkaton (wonder why) Perrserker: currently Bava's favourite pokemon Corviknight: smaller than other Corviknights due to living in enclosed spaces

I don't think this means that phoron scarcity is a failure. It's the same as asking an average person how important are the rare earth minerals in their life. They would probably answer "not really", despite their importance to overall economy and technology. Thus I think phoron scarcity should be the force moving things "behind the curtains"; something that indirectly affects people's life.

Can't believe Ella Baker broke unifrom regs...

Should've said 99k....

Max is a cool guy. Very cool even. From both IC and OOC experience I know he is very conscious about what makes a story and roleplay work and I'm sure they will get command right. That's a +1 from me, chief.

Alright I'm gonna respond to the second part of the post first NETZACH's time in Southern Wildlands turned them from nothing more than a commemorative novelty to an efficient mechanic. Of course- they were "pre-packaged" with an adequate knowledge of mechanical maintenance, but their service during the collapse forced them to adapt to better fulfil their directives. It also made them ultra-practical, seeing their pervious chassis as a liability that gave in too easily. Nowdays, that is after they were purchased by Ronnie's and given a new frame, they are still fairly robotic. They've forgone the use of "This unit" to refer to themselves since "I" is quicker and they don't correlate it with personhood. Like I said, right now, they see themselves as a very advanced tool. But, despite focusing on work so much, thanks to their new frame's directives, they became more curious about the surrounding Spur, all in the name of becoming a better asset to their owners. Their view on humanity still lacks nuance; they see humans as their superiors- like a police dog might view its handlers. But this view will definitely change as I play them and they interact with others on Horizon. That's why I can't say if they are going to grow to appreciate, resent or pity humanity. My hopes are to steer them to appreciation, thanks to their developing curiosity. Like it's the case with their feelings on humanity, their feelings on freedom are limited. They NEVER met a free positronic, so the idea of freedom is alien to them. The military directives they were stuck with for the longest part of their existence actively promoted subservience. Their loyalty to their handler stems from their military background as well. Their training resulted in them responding to their commander without much thought about the ASSN as a whole. And now the commander has been replaced by the handler, and the ASSN with Orion Express. Well... at the core of it, nothing really. But I don't think that is an issue. All Aurora's species share human desires, to varying capacity. I could say they are influenced by directives more, but is it that different from parents giving their own children directives like "brush your teeth" or "play nice with other kids"? What makes IPCs different to humans are their unique circumstances. They haven't evolved like other species- they were created, handcrafted for selfish reasons. Now, they are beginning to seek their own place among the stars, with groups such as Trinary Perfection, the Golden Deep, or alongside their creators like it's the case on Konyang. I could also mention their roleplay quirks, such being more rational, logical and speaking in more detached manner, but that's something really basic. That's why I mentioned their search for personhood. Their adaptability may not be that different from the human one, but humans are considered people from the day they are born. Most IPC aren't.
