Player Byond Key/Character name: TheAbsoluteMadMan - Zack Koster

 Staff involved: Shadow

 Did you attempt to adminhelp the issue at the time? If so, what was the known action taken by administration/moderation? It was ahelped, but nothing was done to my knowledge, seeing is how they insantly joined the next round.   Shadow took the ticket at the end of the round and then closed it. The round restarted but nothing was spoken too TAMM to my knowledge.

Story Time:

This all started it. This right here. Him literally just shouting, "Sex offender." Which is a no no, records have clearance requirements. 

http://prntscr.com/owuyrv

Here is where i come in. The wonderful Angel to save the day. Look at me go with my butterfly wings.

http://prntscr.com/owuywy

I'm then informed about what has happened and Uriel with his big ole baton when like, "hells nah"

http://prntscr.com/owuz3y

I then call them to the HoS office, after buying a laptop. Because this should be a quick suspension and removal. Woot. 

http://prntscr.com/owuzg2

I gave the officer a single chance to try to defend himself. He failed.

http://prntscr.com/owuzlg

Since he couldn't do it. I ask for his ID. You know, like how any NORMAL demotion/suspension would go.

http://prntscr.com/owuzsj

We found him hiding in disposals. Now that I think back on it. I should have just flushed him, but no. He was just being childish. Easy fix.

http://prntscr.com/owv002

So while the Detective has his gun drawn. He is told to drop his belt. He refuses. I being uriel evans, open the HoS locker for the baton and click it on, stunning him repeatly till he goes down. He gets up and keeps fighting with a loaded gun pointing at him.

http://prntscr.com/owv0bu

I get shot too, because fuck me. But we've both got bullet wounds now. And he already has a massive brig time. 

http://prntscr.com/owv0jg

Of course, my ass gets beat. Uriel is forty-two, gotten tear gas and a bullet inside of him. He isn't an officer but there is literally no one else to do something. At this point. He gets captured by the CE and we both go to medical, both get fixed, both get sent out. Together. I dragged him back to Security.

http://prntscr.com/owv144

While in Securtiy, when I'm ringing up his charges. He tries to break out. So I have to engage with him, which leads to another blood bath in which we're both in medical. 

http://prntscr.com/owv1lw

So he steals my gun and lethals me in the head. Actually trying to murder me. He's playing to win. So  I spam flash him, because fuck 'em.

http://prntscr.com/owv1vg

He broke multiple bones, popped my lung and basically took me out of the round, AGAIN because he wanted to be this neo-justice soldier. 

http://prntscr.com/owv2nn

So after our second gun-show down and I'm dying. He isn't much better. He just ghosts and fucks off to do something else, literally meaning we can't do anything to actually punish him but drag around a fucking SSD guy that doesn't care he has been a massive fucking asshole.

http://prntscr.com/owv3at

I don't see no Zach Koster there.

http://prntscr.com/owv3nw

So here we all are. Talking about how horrible the round was because instead of the Antags we all voted secret for, building us a story. WE had some nutjob security officer who an enjoyment for lowrp.

http://prntscr.com/owv3y8

And the start of next round. He doesn't care. He's here to start shit. I Don't know what to do with him, but something has got to be done because holy shit. This doesn't make sense ICly or OOCly for a character/player to behave this way. I get the fucking memes, "Urinal" and shit like that in OOC, funny stuff. Sometimes funny in IC too. But this was literally removing me from the round. I physically couldn't play because I was Crit for most of it or brain damaged. And I'll give him some points. He were pretty pissed off and being pretty heavy about it saying things like, "That isn't how an officer should behave" "That was bullshit." And yet he says.. For us to cry more. Fucking great. 

 

Vrom watched the whole thing in ghost

TheBurningSherman was the AI.

Shadow was the CE, Steven Hejuk,

YourDaddy117 was the detective that shot me, yet I still love you ❤️

 Nantei joined late as Shiki but observed some of this behavior ICly

Menown has his character's fucking record screamed out over comms.

Nikov.... was there.

somethingiguess said something in chat so rip.

 

But yeah. This guy did this to "win" and ruin our round. To fuck our shit up to get his nockers off. I'm a little pissed off it took me so long to write all this.

[The7thLain]

I was the A.I. during that round I can confirm all of this. It was really confusing to deal with after I found out what kind of round it was, and it also just made the jobs of everyone else in sec and command a lot harder when they didn't have to be.

[Nantei]

I don't recall seeing Zane directly, but I did certainly see the aftermath. The only way the holding area could have been more bloody is if the scrubbers had backblasted it. Large portions of ISD were incredibly bloody. I also saw Uriel's scan and can confirm brain damage. Find it fairly hard to believe they were not trying to kill him. 

 

I'll also note this is pretty standard behavior for him. As someone who personally knew them in the recent past, I doubt they have any intent to change. They are rather notorious for playing to win, especially as an antagonist.

From the little I've seen of TheAbsoluteMadMan, they give me the impression of someone who (as noted within the complaint) doesn't care and, anytime this complaint is mentioned, they immediately remark it with "Cry more", "your tears are delicious", and other similar phrases without caring about the critique it brings about their behavior as a player.

TheAbsoluteMadMan definitely appears to "play to Win" rather than play to roleplay, especially seeing in one of the recent Heist rounds (Game ID: b2U-alQG) as the Nanny-bot AI where, upon attempting to trap the Raiders inside the HoP office, they repeatedly crushed the raiders with the blast doors with apparent glee considering how happy they were with the OOC remarks post end of the round.

In fact, at the end of the round after Kalren Halstere was captured and incapacitated and left to finish himself off with his own hands, the AI Nanny-bot still personally appeared inside the room he was to bolt the door (when he had no intention to flee the room) and began to siphon the air. Where upon this rather interesting exchange of words happened.

(OOC lines cleaned from the exchange)

[F] Kalren Halstere(as Unknown) stutters, "L-L-L-Let-t m-me d-d-die w-with-h dig-gn-nit-ty-y. I'l-ll-l-l-l die."
Unknown is badly injured, and so it seems he is having a difficult time moving!
[F]|[E] Nanny-bot states, "You will die soon."
[F]|[E] Nanny-bot queries, "Any last words?"
[F] Kalren Halstere(as Unknown) stutters, "G-God bl-les-s-ss-s th-he S-Solar-r Al-l-ll-lian-nc-ce."
[F]|[E] Nanny-bot states, "Thats lame."
[F] Kalren Halstere(as Unknown) stutters, "Wil-l-ll you r-rec-cod-d-d-d t-that-t, f-for-r-r m-m-m-me?"
newscaster beeps, "Breaking news from Tau Ceti Daily!"
[F]|[E] Nanny-bot states, "Sure. Unit will play it back to it's self for entertain. Start recording - Say what you want to say."

[F] Kalren Halstere(as Unknown) says, "This could've been clean, if not for you."
Unknown unbuckled themselves!
[F]|[E] Nanny-bot states, "Sucks to suck."
Unknown sticks their gun in their mouth, ready to pull the trigger...
[F]|[E] Nanny-bot states, "Don't fuck with the AI."
Unknown decided life was worth living
Unknown buckles themselves to the chair.
Unknown sticks their gun in their mouth, ready to pull the trigger...
[F] Kalren Halstere(as Unknown) says, "God bless the Alliance."
Unknown pulls the trigger.
You hear a loud cracking sound coming from Unknown.
Unknown screams!
Unknown seizes up and falls limp, their eyes dead and lifeless...

 

This only further demonstrates TheAbsoluteMadMan's disregard to roleplaying in general, and given their consistent replies of "cry some more/salt some more", it doesn't seem they really care about changing.

[Resilynn]

That round vis just cited was particularly bad, Nanny-AI was constantly bolting and electrifying doors, even after being told not to over command radio.  The AI was yelling at a surgeon, Luna Evans, and kept siphoning rooms.  Crew members were dying because the bridge was locked down and the AI was being relatively slow to open them.  It DID open them, eventually, as a note, but the AI seems to take security's orders more seriously than anyone else's because from a command position, I couldn't get it to open the doors until an officer asked it to.  Which pretty much ignores the AI laws.

Hello, @Karolis2011 and I will be handling this. We have begun the deep dive into the logs and will come back with a result within a day or two.

[Karolis2011]

I and Cnaym have looked over logs and have confirmed, that VisVirific and LordPwner statements are valid.

After long discussion with Cnaym we have decided that TheAbsoluteMadMan will be permanently banned for repeatedly breaking rules, poor role play, lack of improvement, self-antaging and powergaming.

This thread will be locked and archived after 24 hours.
