Ah! I do remember that, thanks. Okay, that was the time I told you about when I went to the bridge to try to help the people stuck up there. Yes, Richter is a brave doctor and I know some people don't like high but realistic heroism, but its very different from "storming" the bridge to stop a known dangerous hostile force like I'm a hulk swat team. I don't believe this is a reason to downvote my application. Yes, you stormed the Bridge, there were people up there that we dead and there was already an announcement and contact with the ERT. You had no reason to go up there. But besides that, there have been other instances where you do the general same thing. I just strongly feel that you do not deserve the whitelist until your character changes.

I think Jenna is talking about when you stormed the Bridge as hulks with Gregory O'Reed. It was announced multiple times and the ERT was already on General comms when you proceeded to do so. It is entirely possible that she is talking about a different incident though.

I have been in rounds with Corvo Oaken many times and I feel he will do a fine job in the Head of Staff roles. +1 from me.

When did that ever happen? And are you saying I get salty ooc for transgressions IC? What are you saying there, and give an example. If you are asking about the you storming the Bridge, I was there and saw that happen. Just pointing that out there.

No, this is three times on the top of my head that you hulked out or used powers to do things like break into the AI's Core when Security was handling. Searched out traitors when there were staff already on it. My point is, I don't like how your characters act and from what I haveseen coming from the, I would not like to see the ones I have had experience with inside a Head of Staff position. And yes, if there are issues with some part of your playstyle that worries me if you are going to be a Head of Staff this is a perfect place to bring it up. There are times where Richter self tests just for the hell of it. I know that isn't wrong in itself but it is something that is keeping me from wanting you on Command. My vote still stands.

This is a -1 for me still. Melkior says that he has cut down on the Genetic chucklefucking but I was there for the entire round that he mentioned in his notes when he said that it was one of the few times he has done that recently. I am not sure how long recently is but I can name at least three times in the past week or so that he has done this. I don't feel you are capable of taking the Command position at this time. And really, having a hulk boxing match is not something that should be done. You are research genetics not meant to entertain the crew. Also, screaming "HULKMAINA" is not something people generally approve of. Keeping this at a -1 unless I get proof you are changing.

You should have it regardless of your application. You have taken over the Skrell lore since Frances is gone! +1

I see where you are coming from. But do you really think they would even be able to communicate? I mean, they weren't even originally that species. I would be fine with this happening but I don't want them to be able to carry full conversation with the Geneticists or something. It just seems odd.

Well, I was thinking that you wouldn't be able to speak basic or something. Not sure, but I want them to be different. You really would have no knowledge about speaking in my opinion if you were a protohuman. Like you would have to do gestures or something. Not sure how proto-humans actually are, but I usually act like they are able to move around but are completely unable to realize what they are or where they are. Like I said, not sure how correct that is.

Yeah, this is a thing in the newer baystation code. It will be added automatically.

Yeah, that was my thinking about not doing number two. It really doesn't do much but keep the problem hidden for short term.

All of these seem like good ideas. I have noticed those things like taking forever to do simple things because I had to replenish materials so often. But anyway, I am liking this.

Yeah, I am in favor of this. I have thought about it a few times. It is surprisingly fun to be tested on, I was put in the body of a proto-human once. And no, they should not gain anymore rights than they already have.

Just putting this out there, I am in full support of the first option. It would just need to be clear that Central Command is keeping an eye on the station's previously implanted Command Staff. But besides that, I feel it is the best option at this time. The second one just makes it seem like the implants are basically pointless unless it is keeping you from murdering. That is something that all sane people should do anyway, I don't think people would need an implant to not go on a murder spree.

Elyra News Network “For Greatness, We Strive” Minister Tatenda Approves 1.29.2458 Minister Tatenda Approves This afternoon, earlier than we expected, Prime Minister Tatenda announced that the Synthetic Tagging bill has been approved by him and is going into effect immediately. Both him and his advisers agreed that it is needed and has massive public support. We have been asked to put this on our report for this, "All Unbound Synthetic Units are to report to their place of employment or local government building for tagging. Failure to do so will result in immediate detainment and forced tagging. Once you are tagged, you are to report back to your normal duties. The tag does not prohibit you in anyway." This news of the tagging has made many of the Elyran citizens release a sigh of relief. There are many easy ways for you to identify and IPC now. If you look around their neck, there is a collar that says "Unbound Unit". This tag applies for any type of IPC. We are still open for question requests and we will try to get the questions answered. Sol Council Completed Ending at 4:00 Persepolis Standard Time, Minister Nabil released a report on the results of the meetings that took place in the Sol Alliance. It is how many people expected, it was based around the Synthetic issues and how to go about containing the issue. So far, many of the nations believe that there is no need for there to be a "Kill Switch" at this time. Even if others go for the switch, Elyra will stick with tagging unless reason arises to do otherwise. The Kill Switch too was a big issue brought up, mostly of the issues that may come up with the implementation of the switch and the uproar it will cause. For now, Elyra is a definite no.

Alright, I have read through the lore. I am liking how it is turning out. Especially with the addition of all the extra history. Haven't really looked at it deeply enough to find anything too bad with it right now. Also, are those faiths new? I thought they used to just be called Atheists or something.

Elyra News Network “For Greatness, We Strive” Synthetic Bill Passed 1.28.2458 Synthetic Bill Passed Over the past 10 days, there have been debates going on inside of the Elyra Parliament, this morning however, the Parliament announced that a bill putting restrictions on the Unbound Synthetics. So far, not many details have been released and the bill is being sent for approval by Prime Minister Tatenda. If Tatenda decides to approve the bill, the law will go into effect. Many speculators believe that we may be moving towards tagging Unbound Synthetics like Biesel has been successful in implementing. There really is no way to know for sure at this time. Hopefully we will find out by either late tomorrow or early Saturday. Mending Relations With Sol Yesterday morning was the beginning of a diplomatic convention located in the heart of the Sol Alliance. Many of the larger Human nations were seated in the meetings. Minister Nabil was sent to Sol by the Prime Minister to represent Elyra. The main reason that the meeting was called was for the Unbound Synthetic issues that have been arising across many of the Human nations. Most of the time, these meetings aren't for enacting things but more of trying to keep many of the Humans on the same page, this one is specific has been called for many of the nation's appointed representatives to debate about the issues with the Synthetics. From what we have been told so far is that almost all of the representatives are fully supportive of the taggings. We assume that the "Kill Switch" that was an issue in the Sol Alliance will be brought up. Minister Nabil is very much against the kill switch. Results of the meetings will be released soon.

I don't know, this is something that most of my characters wouldn't allow. Maybe for like CSI or Detective. But if you are wearing this as an Officer or Warden I would tell you to get into uniform.

In response to Xander, it shouldn't change characters THAT drastically as the Captain and Head of Security should be constantly doing their best to keep Corporate interests in mind and working to do their best for the company. I can see where the issue may come in during a nuclear round buuuuut. If you could make the argument that it is in Nanotrasen's best interests if you surrender as it keeps the NSS Aurora still in working condition and costs less than the entire crew dying and the station destroyed. I am too, against loyalty implants for the Captain and Head of Security. The more I think, Internal Affairs probably should have it because as far as I know, they do not go through as much training as the Heads of Staff do and they have access to quite a bit of sensitive information along with a direct line to Central Command. At this time, I think Internal Affairs should be loyalty implanted of some sort.

The thing is, characters that are in roles where they are implanted and have the capacity to bring harm to the Nanotrasen should know right from wrong without the needing of a forced implant that pulls them to do one thing over another. I would think that Nanotrasen would trust their staff, especially a Captain that has been through extensive training and knows what they should be doing, to not go and do shit that would fuck up their name. I just don't feel they would be necessary honestly.

Alright, that is good. I will keep an eye out for those characters and then say something here if I feel you can handle a whitelist.

I don't know about this. I have witnessed Juan Siganto being in Security for a little while now. From what I can tell, he doesn't care. He doesn't care about anything. He doesn't have an attitude that I feel is needed to be a Head of Security. Now, if any of their other characters are different and Siganto is meant to be played like that than yes, I would be fine with the Whitelist as long as Siganto is not a Head of Security.

Actually, if someone would, please mark this as denied for now. I am planning on reworking the entire thing after having an idea about what I could do with it. I will hopefully get this thing sorted out and send it up for approval again.

Getting rid of my post because Gollee made a way better case than I did in my opinion.

How about this, we start the conversation over there and when we think we got something we bring it over here. It is how most issues are handled in those forums.
