Guest Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) Recently I saw a video of Paradise station Security Regulars forming a small mini-meeting on discord/teamspeak explaining their variation of Space Law, answering security questions relating on how to deal with antagonists, et cetera. It was a very well-done video and I enjoyed seeing a few security regulars sit about for an afternoon, shooting the shit, talking shop about being robust and good security at the same time. So, naturally, I wish to sort of replicate this except with the intention to clarify more server-specific details regarding security and its interaction with other departments. Why? "A community meeting type thing with a focus on security, and run by Regular/Semi-Regular Security players. This meeting is designed to help ease potential players into (arguably) one of the most difficult departments in the game, as well as helping people gain a bit more context into the purpose of the department. The meeting is, as usual, open to everyone, whether you're a security veteran, or have never held a baton before in your life." What to expect: 1. We'll go over Corporate Regulations. Every single one, we will explain all of them and their intended context for application. Yep. 2. We'll go over the Station Directives and what their intended context is. This is mostly head of staff-focused but non-command players do have a right to know what to expect from these directives. 3. We'll go over how to treat certain antagonists case-by-case dependent on how they act and react, as security, so that you have a general understanding of what to do regarding arresting antagonists for acting antagonistic. 4. We will answer questions! Send them to me via discord PMs while the meeting's underway. Shoot me a PM on discord if you wish to join the panel, it will be carried out via voice chat on Discord. Unsure if we'll do it via the standard Aurora one so everyone can poke in, or whatever. I'll bug an admin about it. A few rules for those who aren't on the panel: 1.) Keep your mic muted, you're there to listen to the discussion until members of the panel ask the "audience" (you) if they have questions on a specific topic before we move along. Unmute it then, ask your question, then mute yourself again. 2.) Avoid spamming the panel members with nonsense while the meeting is underway. Be mature about it, please. 3.) Be there or be an unrobust nerd. One last thing! The meeting will be recorded by me, personally, and then the whole chunk put up on YouTube. So if you have problems with being immortalized via YouTube, you need not attend. Panel Attendees 1138 (me, the inception of this idea, sort of) Omnivac CakeIsOssim sgtdragonfire [attendance shaky, but likely?] Filthyfrankster (Punished Frank) UnknownMurder ShameOnTurtles Edit: Pushed the date up to the weekend, preferably to maximize possible attendence because I was informed that school just started. Who knew? Hard set time will be on September 10th, 12PM, EDT. Not AM, PM. Edit 2: Round two, lads. Edited September 19, 2016 by Guest Quote

Qewy Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 I can attend. I actually have some questions on regulations that I find a bit wonky. Quote

ChevalierMalFet Posted September 7, 2016 Posted September 7, 2016 I've never played with Discord before, but it might be worth it to participate in this. Quote
SierraKomodo Posted September 7, 2016 Posted September 7, 2016 Gonna be too early on my end (West coast, mornings are typically a no go because work has me up late) Quote
UnknownMurder Posted September 7, 2016 Posted September 7, 2016 I've never played with Discord before, but it might be worth it to participate in this. It's Teamspeak 3 + Skype. It's kinda good to keep in contact with the servers. Generally most SS13 servers uses it. Quote
Juani2400 Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 I will try to attend. If I don't forget. :/ Quote
Guest Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 As a reminder: The mini-meeting will take place in general 1 on the Aurora discord. I don't quite anticipate more than 25, but if needed I'll poke Skull during that time to add more slots to overcome the slot limitation to fit for a few more people. Quote
Garnascus Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 blah, something came up so i most likely wont be there . Quote
Guest Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Sorry to say, but I'm pushing the time to around 3PM EDT. That's three hours further after of the planned time, I've an emergency errand I must run today and then that'll be that. Quote

Guest Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 OK, deeply sorry, but my errand ended up developing into an emergency and I couldn't book for the assigned time today, I was not even able to get to a computer to say so ahead of time. Same time tomorrow on Sunday. I am very much sorry for missing out on the mini-meeting, but my mother and younger sister had gotten into a car crash. Quote
Skull132 Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Same time which time? The originally designated time (1600hrs Zulu)? Quote
Guest Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 11SEP2016 1600hrs Zulu/GMT+0 1200hrs EDT/GMT-4 1100hrs CDT/GMT-5 1000hrs MDT/GMT-6 0900hrs PDT/GMT-7 1700hrs BST (British Summer Time)/GMT+1 1800hrs CEST (Central European Summer Time)/GMT+2 1900hrs EEST (Eastern European Summer Time)/GMT+3 Yup, way ahead of you. I have off tomorrow in lieu of the emergency anyway, in addition to the fact it is Patriot Day in the US. Quote
UnknownMurder Posted September 11, 2016 Posted September 11, 2016 Yup, way ahead of you. I have off tomorrow in lieu of the emergency anyway, in addition to the fact it is Patriot Day in the US. Quote
Roderick Grey Posted September 11, 2016 Posted September 11, 2016 Probably not going to be able to make that, will me at 4am Monday for me. Quote
Guest Posted September 11, 2016 Posted September 11, 2016 We'll be starting in around 10 minutes, likely with a 10 minute grace period after the "official" start. Hop in if you have not already. Quote
hivefleetchicken Posted September 11, 2016 Posted September 11, 2016 Yeah, I can't fucking come to this Quote
Guest Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Thank you all for attending, but due to the bulk of the discussion, we decided to end it early in favor of hopefully allowing myself to cut the first portion of the discussion in video format into important parts for a two-episode sequence only discussing corporate regulations rather than continuing on to the directives and such as planned. The whole meeting lasted for three and a half hours. Ya. Part two/three regarding station directives and other stuff will be discussed perhaps next week on Saturday. We'll see, subject to change. Again, thank about 25-30 of you for actually attending, I do appreciate it. Quote
