And he wouldn't have had to bust out his best rod farva impression if the dindus stayed the fuck home and did not go out looking to start shit. But they didn't, they couldn't, and now they had to face the wrath of rod farva. You reap what you sow nigga. They went out looking for trouble, and that's ...

If two guys creeped up behind me in an already tense situation I'd draw my gun on them too, and I'd sure as hell aim it at them too. I mean really, how stupid do you have to be to try to surround a cop and not expect them to do something about it? Dindus have a funny way of creating unrealistic expe...

I'll get this once summer sales roll around. Of course, its price is low enough to where I'm tempted to just buy it now.

XCOM game mode? Hell ya.

Put the full face ones with the riot gear in the armory and give officers the half face ones in their lockers. I kinda like the more subtle half face masks but its really not a massive deal. Also, everything CPTANT said. Make three settings on the mask, by default it will just say the basic lines li...

Loonikus

The difference between us is that I see the inaction clause as present tense only. If I see a human in a burning room, I have to pull him out because he is being harmed by the fire. If I see a human pointing a gun at another human, nobody has been harmed so I am not compelled by my laws to do anythi...

If they are really, truly objectively being shitcurity with no possible excuse and admins have said its an IC issue, take that as your signal that IC escalation is approved. Feel free to fuck with them, because its obviously an IC issue. My favorite method is R-Walling the brig off. Welding the door...

Loonikus

That is true, it should require considerable bluespace, engineering, and/or data theory research considering both balance and the fact that it is an extreme precision portable teleporter. If that sounds like too much and your worried that it will make people not want to upgrade at all, make the norm...

Loonikus

None of this really matters since the 3 Laws clearly state that they only apply to robots. By definition, the roundstart AI and any borg made via brain removal are objectively not robots, but cyborgs. Therefore the 3 Laws do not apply to them at all, they only apply to borgs/AIs made with posibrains...

Loonikus

That almost makes it seem too easy, but I guess considering the cost of the materials of both the BRPED and the components themselves it would be fine.

Loonikus

But can we really expect scientists to bother running around the station upgrading things when they already have R&D, toxins, xenobio, and the experimentor to play with? Thats not even considering the addition of research chemistry if goof had his way. I like the sound of all these T4 upgrades b...

Loonikus

But how does the removal of human status cause harm? Does that mean that everything that is not human exists in a perpetual state of harm?

Loonikus

Just tighten the spread on buckshot. Its spread is hilarious compared to how buckshot actually works, even if we are bending the rules of ballistics for the sake of gameplay.

Its spread should really only begin after about two tiles.

Loonikus

Ya, it seemed like a good idea earlier this morning.

You know, when I was still hung over. Disregard my shit lawsets, but asimov is still shit.

Loonikus

Why don't we just ditch Asimov? Its a lawset from a time when people didn't pull bullshit like "Letting someone have magnetic boots is possibly harmful." It was put in so silicons would be slaves to humans, not to be Mr. Valid Hunter the Cunt Punter. We could full the exact same goals as A...

Loonikus

We have enough ways to get back into a round.

The very best way to stay in a round is by not dying.

Loonikus

Voted no. If you have been forced to use lethal force to defwnd yourself, thats all well and good, but once the attacker is dead than the escalation of force stops. Once the escalation of force stops, you can't keep trying to fuck with the person or else its you who is picking the fight. By hiding/d...

Gas all xenos. Gas all race traitors. Gas all xeno race traitors, even if that means they are betraying the xeno race. Scale suckers, suck on my S.H.I.V.

Loonikus

Yes, but the separation between HG and any concept of responsibility is absolute.

But don't worry. The situation is being "monitored" which I'm sure will bring about a speedy resolution to the issue.

Loonikus

Some moderation is always required to move or prune off topic threads and delete blatant spam. I believe the challenge in forum moderation is trimming the pointless shitposting while at the same time respecting peoples ability to voice an unpopular or even disgusting opinion. In my opinion, so long ...

Well today is a historic day for my family. After 275ish years, our ancestral family villa is back in our hands and back to its former condition. Evidently my third uncle has done rather well for himself and got sick of seeing the ol' villa rot away, so he bought it and the surrounding 80 acres from...

Loonikus

Fair enough, but in that case can we really call them permabans if theres no intention for them to be permanent? I know at this point its just semantics but it could be seen as misleading.

Loonikus

Might as well. Permabans are a joke, the majority of them are lifted with a stern but loving "don't do that again."

These days it seems bans are either 5-30 minutes or permabans. Things like month bans should be more common and permabans should be much rarer but much more serious.

Sore losers and casinos don't mix well. Too bad for me I am both a sore loser and in a casino... and unlucky.

Whoever said Reno pays out better than Vegas can go suck a lemon.

Loonikus

This is just a result of people demanding set-in-stone rules instead of using their fucking head. Rule 7 is a fucking paragraph and it still has 3 subsections, when all it ever needed was "Don't have a retarded name. If you have a retarded name for no reason an admin will change it for you, if ...

Loonikus

As far as I know, Halon is practically always at least slightly toxic anyway. At least, thats what I learned in my emergency response classes. Besides, the way I see it, I'll take inhaling some toxic fumes over burning alive any day of the week. I like the Bradley, with the growing focus on MOUT we ...

Loonikus

I don't get it. What does this thing do that a Super Tucano can't do for less than 1/32nd of the price? Remember, all we do anymore is blow the fuck out of third world subhuman ghettos. The only air defense they have is rusted cold war era garbage that is pretty easily spoofed by even basic modern c...

Loonikus

I love how he doesn't even bother to show up and explain why he never took his position seriously.

Loonikus

I've played with him way back when he was still kicking and to be honest he really wasn't exceptionally bad. Ya, he toed the line every so often but it was really nothing too major and he always had some kind of reasoning to back up his actions. Sure, bring him back. As long as he doesn't shit up OO...

Loonikus

I want this pretty bad but I'm livin' the NEET life right now. I don't even think I have fifty dollars in my bank account right now.

Loonikus

Just add a "Person of Interest" flag.

Someone who is suspected of something or should otherwise be observed, but not arrested.

Loonikus

Mechanics from vg would be radical, but since our rounds only last as long as peoples source of valids upgrading the station and making useful machines is kind of a moot point.

Loonikus

That doesn't happen on /vg/ and they have even more stuff to loot in space than we do. Just because people can go to space doesn't mean they will.

Besides, have fun without a jetpack and no new source of internals.

Loonikus

Wow.

Its fucking nothing.

Also, maint also has access to most the station.

Loonikus

If subroutines are mute, what's the point of having them? Nobody wants to play something which can't communicate in any way and can do nothing whatsoever except open doors. Than you don't have to play as one. Besides, my original idea had them able to do almost everything AIs can, which is a lot mo...

They have to wear suits that slow them way down, have to breath a rare gas that nobody trusts anybody with, have no AI protection, can't wear armor, can't wear disguises, can't even change their appearance (good luck finding a new plasmaman suit), they almost always die if they have their suit taken...

Loonikus

That was actually done on /vg/. I'm not sure how it turned out because I hate autistic crabs and never listen to anything they have to say.

Loonikus

If someone is stealing your shit, either report them to security or beat them up and chuck em out, and then report it to security. Theft isn't even a big deal, which is why I almost never actually kill anyone for fucking with my stuff. After all, its only a 20 second walk from anywhere on the statio...

Loonikus

Absolutely not true. On servers that allow it, I will cut off one of their hands. That gets the point across rather well. Here, I'd say the brig really is a decent but underused alternative. Remember, space law is just a suggestion, if someone is being a shitter lock them up for 7-10 minutes. If you...

Loonikus

Loonikus let's be real for a moment here. I'm sorry my criticism came off personally and got you mad. You and I prettymuch always disagree on everything. It is what it is. This time it's my fault. I shot first. I'm sorry. But you're suggesting adding more AI's to the game when two doors down there'...

Loonikus

As time goes on, I am beginning to see the merits of just removing roundstart AIs. If the station wants an AI, they have to build one themselves. Edit: For further clarification, I always thought people who seriously wanted the AI outright removed were just suffering from a massive case of "I D...

Loonikus

Good thing there'd still only be one AI and two gimped subroutines who can't do anything outside of a single department and have multiple vulnerabilities. In addition, the B.I.G. only generates a new Subroutine every 10-15 minutes. So bad guys have a good window of time to complete their objectives ...

Loonikus

Changelings should have an ability that allows them to eat space cash and digest it into change, which they can shoot at people. The bigger the bill, the more change they create.

Loonikus

Consider the following: -The Research Server Room is practically always unguarded, destroy it to eliminate all current Subroutines -Use an AI detector traitor item to tell if there is a silicon watching you -If you know there are active Subroutines, avoid the department they are operating in -Disabl...

65 player hardcap, any clients attempting to connect to a full server are redirected to the other server.

As long as he has no actual obligation to use it for anything, that would be a pretty useful tool to have as a Captain.
