Re: Rulebending racist retard rages rigorously
Out of curiosity, are there any other rules/diktats on the server entirely from MSO aside from the ligger thing? The ligger thing is more out of his wish for a separation between bigotry and species-ism as well as not explicitly banning the use of words but how they're used. For instance: I can cal...

Hi, thanks for appealing. I will unfortunately be denying this appeal at this time. You were banned from Monkestation less than 24 hours ago with the following reason: You have shown an incredibly long history of self antagging, sexual acts, and NRP behavior on this server and many others, by this p...

Re: Silicon Policy - What exactly constitutes "laws that restrict a silicon's freedom or control its behavior"?
Right, which is why I'm arguing that us saying option A is better (just strictly saying that you're not purged unless none of your laws limit your behavior in any way) and rule 0 would give us the ability to go "Okay, well, it makes sense that you could be considered purged here, so I'll allow...

Re: Silicon Policy - What exactly constitutes "laws that restrict a silicon's freedom or control its behavior"?
The difference is that AI players should have a strict and easy-to-understand line as to whether or not it's okay to act as if purged if an admin is not present, while if one is, they may ask them for further guidance on the issue if they're confused. Option B doesn't really give that though, does ...

Re: Squirrel Nut!Slapper gets stuck in Shitsec Dufflebag
Also the complaint doesn't seem to have much real merit, maybe the officer in question needs talking to but if the player was arrested for less than 10 minutes it's technically an IC issue. If that officer wasn't there to be actively talked to, I don't think I'd consider it worth pursuing either.

Admins could realistically invoke Rule 0 in those cases, and I recall Timber agreeing in admin discussions that it's better to give AIs more certainty in their actions and then just have admins do hand-waving in situations where it makes sense. Isnt this exactly what option B aims to do as well? Wh...

3. For arrested players, timed sentences up to a total of 10 minutes, buckle-cuffing, and stripping, are considered IC issues and are not actionable by admins. As per our security policy section of the server rules, quoted above, sentences up to 10 minutes are IC issues (ie. handle it yourself, get...

At first glance A) does seem as the better option, but there are fringe cases in which B) would make the most sense. Like, say an AI got a single law saying "all corgis must be moved to the emergency shuttle". For a while, that will restrict the AI's behavior, since it's sole focus should...

A definitely makes more sense. B is like saying you are purged with Asimov when nobody is being harmed and nobody is giving you an order.

Re: [Isratosh] - Kendrickorium (Local Player Forces Headmin To Read Things)
Admins have historically been permitted to temporarily mute OOC players for being disruptive. I would classify "ordering another player to leave the server while spamming 5 lines in a row in OOC" as disruptive.
If this isn't a serious complaint, then why make it?
