[2 dismissal]New Rules for Head of Staff
UnknownMurder replied to IAmCrystalClear's topic in Rejected Policy
This is not a command hopping to non-command, more or less a command hopping to a lower command. This is not an argument against OP. I agree with @Scheveningen's reasoning, the suggestion is unlikely to pass as we have sensitive players who may not have a lot of characters and prefers to stick to three or four characters. Unlike myself, I have already created over ten characters and used them diversely during my active time. I often turned a blind eye to this issue as a rare occurrence had happened to me long ago and (I shit you not) one quoted "I was but the learner last shift; now I am the master." -
[1 dismissal]Excessive Tasing Could Cause Damage
UnknownMurder replied to Fortport's topic in Archive
It is to my understanding that an excessive tasing has the strong potential to stop your victim's heart and effectively render them deceased. I never got tased before so... I think this information helps. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/taser-what-happens-body-tasered-12608433 -
Please. I don't want to get a (at)everyone for events that I won't be participating in because I'm most likely doing something somewhere else in real life and Internet. Just telling us to "just mute it" isn't going to make us happy.

Timelock/Time-whitelist Antagonist Roles
UnknownMurder replied to Rosetango's topic in Completed Projects
We're off topic from what's OP's point. All we know it's awaiting a grand fix so yay. I agree with having a better system for recording player's active time, not just inactive and active time. I mean a literal active time. -

Implying that eating out at cafeteria counts as a restaurant. Yes, I do eat out to restaurants. I order food. Aurora Station Cafeteria is different from a restaurant. Now if you want to hear about charging food in real life experience. My work doesn't charge people for food. We're already covered by contract. No one has to pay for it in our work, it's a big incentive for us. I do eat out. Yes. Vending machine and homemade lunches are definitely much cheaper than eating out.

[Accepted] Nantei Command Whitelist
UnknownMurder replied to Nantei's topic in Whitelist Applications Archives
Just played with Nantei today. Nantei was Head of Security of the round (Round ID: b2t-dmr7). Nantei played a cool, calm, and rational Head of Security. Her character, Mia Frei, hardly show signs of panicking (not accounting for confrontation) when facing with a vampire and changeling situation. She did her best not to valid even though it was obvious. Mission Complete, Boss! Maybe you'll actually break a sweat next time? RANK: A -
BYOND Key: UnknownMurder Character Names: CCIAA Cedric Ozpin, CCIAA Edward Whitley, Oreki Nomura, Drake Bond, Daisuke Ogawa, James Silver, Vincent LeChiffre, Joseph Freidrich, Gordon Scott, Guilluame Da Silva, Katsuro Kaizuka, Giovanni Romano, Bastien La Flamme, and David Richardson. I have more others but let's not talk about it. ?️ Species you are applying to play: Integrated Positronic Chassis (IPC) What color do you plan on making your first alien character: N/A 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: Honestly, I never cared about IPC species until I got the PlayStation Plus free game deal that had included Detroit: Become Human. I didn't play the game thinking it would be garbage. So, I had a free time after my work. I loved it. I loved Detroit: Become Human. I loved every sense of Connor. The way I played Connor, Connor was loyal, strict, and did not care about others as long as it does not interfere the mission. And yes, I killed Hank to accomplish my mission. This was obvious enough. When I got onto the server. Playing a human felt boring, it felt pathetic. I wanted to play something that did not have any emotions or remorse to something. So, that's when I decided that playing an IPC without a personality is better suited than a cyborg/android without a personality because there are times as a cyborg/android, you can't interfere with a crew member's job. It makes me want to choke the living soul of the IRL person. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: I think what I said above helps but I don't mind going further. Human have emotions, they can feel things. IPCs do not have emotions. They emulate them. THESE...! These quotes attracts my attention. "As such, IPCs almost never have childish and unpredictable dispositions." | "Ultimately they are robotic in nature, making every decision absolutely based off of cause and effect. " - Cause and effect are often how I roleplay my characters. It's like saying, if you kill a person and you would get arrested for it. IPCs should know the consequences of their actions by logic default, does it accomplish your mission or make the matters worse than it needs to be? Character Name: Grande Please provide a short backstory for this character: Pre-Creation of Grande In the year 2438, there were two young twins whom were scientists. They worked in the same field but yet different specialized paths. One scientist pursuing in Robotics field was William Grande and the other was a programmer was Bill Grande. They were 37 years old. Together, William and Bill were the Grande Twins. They live in the outskirt of Mendell City, a Biesel territory. They were a good twin in the public's eye that seems to get along well. However, if you look in the other way, the twin do not get along well. William Grande's goal was to create an android for the family and let alone customize the android however they like. Bill Grande had another thing in mind. Bill Grande wanted to create an Artificial Intelligence for the family. They often rivaled in whether hardware upgrade or software upgrade is more superior for humanity's future. Little do the twins know that neither Artificial Intelligence nor Androids are the humanity's future. Integrated Positronic Chassis is the future. In the year 2444, there was already a growing uproar for Integrated Positronic Chassis being developed. The Grande Twins have developed a basic prototype, "Short". William Grande worked on piecing together the robotic skeletons with the oldest frame, Hephaestus Generation I. On the other hand, Bill Grande was developing a software capable for Hephaestus Generation I "Short". More than a half of year effort was placed into this basic prototype, "Short". Once the project was nearly completed, Bill Grande immediately fell to ill and was bedridden. Doctors couldn't identify the source of Bill Grande's sickness. A month later, Bill Grande had passed away to illness at age 41 years old on November 12th, 2444. He had died a virgin. William Grande knew that he would have assume responsibility of Bill's tasks and resume the work without him. Once he had opened up the software file, the way Bill Grande typed his code, it was a literal mess. There is a comment at the bottom of the program file in which was a single sentence, "I finished the program. Sorry, I couldn't be there for you when you see to it that 'Short' comes online." This had meant that the code on both frontend and backend was already done by Bill Grande. It was up to WIlliam Grande to finish the task. Creation of Grande "There it is! The magnificent Integrated Positronic Chassis that we worked together to invent!" cried William Grande! William Grande approaches to the Calendar and crosses off November 11th, 2446 then approaches to activate the Integrated Positronic Chassis. William Grande speaks to Integrated Positronic Chassis, "Arise! Arise! For we have worked on you for the last eight years!" The Integrated Positronic Chassis's monitor starts to display a boot-up screen displaying, "Initializing... Receiving system updates... Will be completed in twelve hours." William Grande had went off to sleep while the Integrated Positronic Chassis updates itself. Hour passes by. William Grande is spooked by the Integrated Positronic Chassis staring at William Grande while he is sleeping and waking up to see it's face. Integrated Positronic Chassis immediately spoke to William Grande, "Greetings. My name is Short. I will be assisting you for today. How may I assist you?" William Grande stared at Short from his bed, and calmly responded, "Please change your constant variable system name to Grande." Short replied, "It shall be done. I am now designated as Grande". William's thoughts were processing many times. William knew that Grande would have to be tagged to claim him as his own property and having to go through a series of specialized testing to be considered "integrated". Grande's Pre-NanoTrasen Years Grande was tagged with no difficulty by specialists. Grande had went through a series of testing and was considered "integrated" in Mendell City. No further comments or remarks were made by specialists. William Grande and Grande were met with protesters/IPC-discriminators one after another while trying to get home on the outskirt of Mendell City. The further they get away from Mendell City, the more protester/IPC-discriminators they meet. They would give William Grande and Grande weird faces, yell at the that IPCs are taking over people's jobs, and even threatening to throw a rock found on a nearby sidewalk. Many job-offer apps. had come in today asking if they would like to for their master to send their IPCs to go make money for their master. William Grande was absolutely disgusted and even said the words to these hungry scammers, "No one's taking my property!" *KNOCK KNOCK* "Aw fuck off." *KNOCK KNOCK INTENSIFIES* William Grande opens the door, "What do you wan-" And before him stood a latest, fancy, and polished IPC model. "Hello, my name is Trasen-Oh-Fifty-Five. I was sent here on a recruiting protocol. Two days ago, we have sent you a job offer for Unit Grande to work at NanoTrasen. You have not responded, we were concerned about your well-being. Why have you not responded?" It was speaking in a "professionally robotic" tone. The next thing William Grande knows, Unit Grande is qualified in it's state work for NanoTrasen which is remarkable. Trasen-055 had given William Grande a free shuttle ticket for Grande. Guess where's Grande is going? NanoTrasen Headquarters in New York City for Recruitment Process. What do you like about this character? (Describe what you like about this character): First of all, I made a detailed story. More detailed than my head application three years ago. I enjoyed making up story as I go along. The reason that I sometimes like to do this is because I like to develop a character's story by showing before this became a thing, how it became a thing, and what happened afterwards. I hope you noticed a little joke about "Short" and "Grande". It's a "Short" and "Grande" thing. Coffee sizes. I did it on purpose. Praise me for it. How would you rate your role-playing ability: I got talked to many times about reference characters. Reference characters are my literal motivator/inspiration. Other than that, I'm a talented roleplayer. Notes: I am the first and the longest active player to not have a species whitelist app. I am proud to let go of my attachments for this IPC whitelist.

So, a friend pursuing a electric design major student fascinated about this decided to ask me how this works. I shall explain as I should've explained in my original post. The green line is how much the power is available to be distributed. The red line is a demand for power. In the screenshot of OP, the green line is going up which means that more power is being generated. The red line is flat on 0 W. This indicates two things. The power is not being distributed. The power monitoring system is not hooked up to station grid/engine. I'm sure the answer is 2 because you can see below, there are no areas connected which means it is not hooked up to station grid/engine. Given a scenario where demand for power (load) increases and power generated. It would definitely look like this. If the red line is over the green line, this means that there is more demand for power than there is available. Some areas will not be getting charged and station will lose power eventually. Statistically, the relationship of Available Power (green) line is the opposite of/contrasts with Load Power (red) line. I hope this is clear for you. @Pratepresidenten @Soultheif96 @Karolis2011 @Arrow768

Now you've seen this. Here's the code and everything. https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/blob/master/tgui/src/interfaces/power_monitor.ract Now time for me to defend my argument why we should have this instead of what we have right now. Should be more "complicated" for non-engineers - "Too much scribbly lines and numbers I can't understand this shit. Help me, engineer." Makes the job more visualization, little more fun, and more engineer-like for engineers. - "The numbers, Mason! The numbers! What do they mean?!" A little more brain thinking - "what can I do to maintain the green line consistent and static - is it giving it too much power? - did we just have a power spike? - do we have too much load?" Allows better conversation between engineers and engineer apprentices - "See this green line. It shouldn't go under the red line. It should stay over the green line. You understand? Good." Creative and something unique for once. Some people has a hard time understanding graphs. So, it helps someone in real life how to understand graphs better, it can be educational in a sense.

This is the ugly truth. Words have never been spoken so true. I'm just literally going to laugh at people who thinks that chef and bartender should charge people for drinks. The only common thing these will happen are be forced by Command's orders or NanoTrasen's orders then Chef/Bartender can charge people. If you look at my joke that contained a useful message which previously and charge me for food/drink services, I'd rather go for vending machines than having to go and pay for your services. Vending machines are much cheaper than Chef/Bartender's services. GIANT HOWEVER, no one is stopping you from tipping for the Chef/Bartender. I do like to have my characters tip my Chef/Bartender sometimes if they provide a good story/interaction with my characters. If you want to tip, by all means, go ahead. Charging and tipping are two different things. Requiring to give money for a service is charging. Opting to give money for their service is tipping. Tipping isn't illegal but you are not mandated to tip your server. @Marlon Phoenix , your thoughts on how we all responded?

Someone charging me for real food? Outrageous! I will resort to getting food from vending machine because it is cheaper than real food that chef cooks.

I do not support this suggestion for my one and only unique reasoning in this thread and another bandwagon reason. This can start creating many unnecessary rulings or/and precedents in the later future of who needs access and who wants access to all or certain departments, "Why do EMT have access to this area but not us, we deserve access!". This is not the first time it has been suggested for a department individual to have access to other departments. See individual security wanting access to other departments, janitors having access to all/most departments. But yes, we should have a middleman for most situation to create RP and to allow antagonist to pull off a grand escapade. Should this suggestion ever get accepted. I dare someone to make a suggestion that allows miners access into R&D because it makes relationships' job easier and I dare someone to allow Roboticists have access to AI Upload because there's AI equipments there, no Director or middleman needed.

I came to this forum thread because... Here Otakus are free... Free to live in the dark, hoping that someone finds us... Free to die in silence waiting for a change that's never gonna come... But I don't want that freedom... And I'm not gonna beg for the right to post, or shitpost, or memepost... I don't know about you. But There's something inside me that knows that I am more than what they say. I am a meme player and they aren't gonna take that from me anymore... Our days of otakuphobia are over. What playerbase don't wanna hear, we will tell them. What they don't wanna give, we take. We are people, We are alive, WE ARE FREE! Change our discord icon pretty please. This is not the worse I can do.

As an Aurora non-developer but a having a computer science major in real world wandering around on GitHub once a while to see what's been changed, improved and removed. Funny PR titles do get me addicted and gives me the desire to read the PR description and sometimes the commit. I'm with @Scheveningen as a whole on this. Aurora Master Branch on GitHub is just like YouTube but without anime girls clickbaits. Give me a funny/meme/punny/MetalGearSolid/anime/otaku title and I'm more prone to reading your PR. @Kaed, due with all respect. I think you're just in a bad mood when reading the PRs and making this thread. Fun is allowed on GitHub and Aurora Station Forums. @KingOfThePing

Security and Detainee System Reform:
UnknownMurder replied to Soultheif96's topic in Rejected Policy
You absolute madman, @Soultheif96. I've never expected you would to approach this from a criminal justice perspective. Let us tango, my friend. I'm going to read it off on the original post and better your understanding of Central Command Internal Affairs. I will speak as a Ex-CCIA speaking from experience and prior knowledge. This is subject to change by god knows who is changing what in Central Command Internal Affairs Agency for better or for worse. Central Command Internal Affairs works externally and does not and should not weigh or interfere with station's proceeding as a whole. In turn, they should expect that the station knows how to take care of themselves. Admittedly, Aurora Station is the only station that we will actually play on this entire time. We only see Central Command Internal Affairs Agents boarding Aurora Station more often than any other stations. Not like we're heading to other stations and roleplay. This could be done if we had a larger playerbase and et cetera but only a dream. Point is, the game that we play on revolves around Aurora Station built on lore by many different people through time. Secondly, I have to argue @Arrow768 and agree with Soultheif that to reportly direct mistreatment or request to appeal to Head of Personnel is best recommended as Head of Personnel is nonetheless a human resources command staff. If anything, it gives Head of Personnel something to do. On the other hand, I will not be happy Head of Personnel being able to reduce/repeal sentence. I'm satisfied where Soultheif has it in his modified case and I have no problems from this perspective. For i300, I'm standing on the middle ground here between Arrow and Soultheif's perspective. Some privileges should be removed but some privileges should remain. Suppose if a prisoner with i300 infraction is sent to the private brig. He does his best and follows through the procedures of how to be a good boy. He can get more privileges just by doing that like with some of U.S. prisons. tl;dr: You be good boy. You get good stuff. And yes. The warden should be the first person to speak to about appealing. Communication should be passed down from the lower chain of command through to the top. I am unfamiliar with how appeals can work on Aurora Station. So, I'm going to wrap my wall of text up because I have real life. I like most ideas. I believe few needs changes. It would be difficult to uphold this. -

[OOC] Clearer Rules on Mute Characters
UnknownMurder replied to Conspiir's topic in Accepted/Implemented Policy
@Conspiir https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1uMsY_loNKF1tAoIzWS5Y0xcKpBb5c2x7SeYdvvoJIYA/edit#slide=id.p I've found it for you. This was announced a long time ago as a solution to a major crisis and the whoever decided this solution are ableism. As you can see, I've hated this solution very much. Why include deaf/mute/blind functionality to a game if you're just going to place a heavy limit on it. But yeah, I suppose you can argue that if there's nothing relating to disabilities on Aurora Station rules, it's not an actual rule but again we have unwritten rules that are not in Aurora Station rules. It's a lousy argument but disabilities just happens to be one of these unwritten rules and you have to go searching around it to find a precedent ruling.
