Just bear in mind the restrictions that a roundstart miner has, and the benefits of current lavaland for other jobs (like atmos). The ease of access/lack of starting suits for default lavaland and the presence of random roundstart gases are important elements in current station balance so there shou...

One of the key points about Lavaland is that it should never require hardsuits, just an air tank. Changing that will screw miners royally unless you give them a free suit on the new mining base.

Exotic gases, you mean stimulum and hypernobilium? Stimulum hurts you so much that its more potent as a deathgas than making you go faster. Hypernobilium has not really any uses besides TEGs and the SM. Making more power? Oh man, wonderful! What uses does it have? The answer is just shocking people...

I haven't been as active ingame recently so I can't comment on that, but when I was playing more often last month he was doing a pretty neat sci-horror event series where SCP items had to be recovered by the crew and sent back to centcomm. It started a little rough, but as he seemed to figure out th...

Nigga still out there fucking with people. I was in a round where he flashed and critted me in the hallway for no discernable reason. I even asked him later during the round and he didn't say anything.

Awesome. Will the rule be repealed if Nays are higher than Yeas, or do you plan on counting "don't care" as approval of the rule?

It doesn't seem to be merged on Sybil.

That's a pretty loaded question. Is it improper admin behavior, or is it improper logging e.g. bugged text?

Most apps just mimic the function of the normal PC but in your hand, so it would probably look almost the same as the normal one.

OOC has discussions about stuff not pertinent to the game all the time. If someone is obviously trolling, fishing for reactions, ban him. If someone is feeding the troll by taking the bait and flaming, ban him. Why? Because otherwise OOC turns into flameshit general and they have to mute it anyway?...

It's pretty funny that one of the two guys arguing on behalf of legitimate uses for fusion is currently appealing a ban for fusion flooding.

15 people later, we still don't have a community poll over this rule change. We had the minimum 10 that Morto asked for days ago, too.

As for using the fusion for antag stuff, I could just as easily make the round unplayable and unfun with a well thought out plasma flood so it's not like a fusion flood is THAT different. Sure, it's a step up but it follows much the same pattern with the main differences being that it's quieter, sp...

Long-standing game features have been removed because of a single person so I don't see why the same shouldn't apply to rules.

Birdboat can't vomit on command, right?

Also it's not a department pet so killing it is fine. And anyway vomit doesn't cause miasma last I checked so it's just a visual nuisance (and free snacks for lizards!!).

In fact, the roundstart SM setup has a (low) chance of going critical on a long round without babysitting so alternative setups like...

I haven't seen a really good plasma fire in ages I see them from time to time on Sybil. People can pretty easily contain them, but it's a good distraction tactic.

That's a good setup. It's a shame everyone else intentionally does open-room fusion with an atmos holobarrier, or just leaves the incinerator open.

Problem is, if you leave 5 maxcaps sitting around, is your fault, if you place those caps in a secured locker, is not your fault but, if you leave an active fusion canister laying around, is your fault, if you make all effort to not let people near the incinerator (reinforcing doors, making walls/w...

Public lavaland access is good for autism fortresses and gas siphoning, which livens up the place. Lavaland should have more features the crew can use, not fewer.

I don't know whether it's due to server culture or balancing, but /vg/'s dynamic is much less insane.

This sounds like Rule 1 Precedent 4. If somebody does that round after round, then its already ahelpable and has nothing to do with escalation.

The problem with escalation is that it's purely reactive. How are you supposed to know if the guy running up on you in the darkness is going to kill you?
