/tg/Station 13

I was the admin who made the call to request (No note was applied) that the malf AI player in question not repeat their tactic of crowbarring open hacked APCs to hide their hacked status from onlookers and people who might stumble onto them. I made that decision after consultation with adminbus and ...

they're alright

As Dorsi has said, wizards are fully allowed to mindswap as a borg unless specifically ordered not to under both law 1 and 3 of asimov. This is because silicon laws are specific for physical phenomena, a human is harmed if they take damage or die, and a borg is destroyed if it dies or stops being a ...

Excuse me sir this is a very serious appeal and peanut posting is uncool.

Pink and red are clearly a very powerful colour combination, you can silence the purples but you can’t silence the truth, ocelot!

This is both expected and entirely unacceptable and I would like to raise this appeal to specifically namelessfairy because they’re clearly not working hard enough.

Your reign of emote banning tyranny will end, Codermin.

I originally voted to keep families around under the assumption that time and modification would smooth out the growing pains of having an entirely new large scale team antag game mode. Now I think that while families isn't un-salvageable, many of the issues from that early phase are rooted in probl...

So far as I am aware, it has been consistently ruled in the past that intentionally making use of any method to test for changeling status that is not dependant on a changeling having used their abilities is exploiting unintended behaviour. You can make use of tells that arise as a result of the use...

I've been pretty vocally in favour of a purpose built violent antag on Manuel for a while now - I think having an antagonist who provides explicit and personal threat to the crew while it lives is good for promoting genuine paranoia and fear in a way that's often very interesting to play with. Havin...

Hi, thanks for making an appeal Logs for this round can be found on scrubby https://scrubby.melonmesa.com/round/171053 While the two bans share inciting incidents, they're placed for different reasons, so I'll break them down one by one. The ghost role ban The 7 day ghost role ban was placed for you...

Didn't know this thread was put up so reposting from admin chatter (wew leaks oh no) One thing that I do think is a bit of a minor thing when talking about prayers IC vs just talking to admins is that we don't really have a better way of talking to admins or conveying low priority messages than with...

As a standard measure, security and command are free under RPR 6 to execute prisoners they cannot reasonably contain by normal measures*, this includes changelings and wizards with robeless spells, and conditionally includes heretics, as there is no way to be sure any given heretic can't just jaunt ...

Cimika has incredible activity levels and Mr Melbert seems to be the more consistent one around, constant activity with very few breaks. This election has quite a lot of very good candidates, it's hard to pick. I'm hopeful for next headmin term. Cimika and Melbert both scare me because I was adminn...

Heya, thanks for making an appeal. I'm glad you're understanding that your behaviour was a mistake, and not something we want to see on /tg/. I won't be lifting this ban though, I do not believe you're deserving of a blacklisting, as your proposed probationary Damocles would warrant, and I believe t...

Wesoda very good

Comparing us to Hippie players is a step too far!

Hi, Thanks for making an appeal. Your recent history is quite clean of problems, so I'm largely willing to take your word that you understand that this is a major violation of server rules, and must not be repeated. With that said, you DID break those rules, and use your second account to attack the...

why am I an angry man with a gun what did I do how did this happen

Edit: Guns are illegal why is this picture painting me as a criminal I have done nothing wrong this is slander

They revived it because I'd mentioned it in Manuel OOC, quite a few people don't check the forums for policy but still have opinions on whether or not things should be considered. Having people voice their thoughts on discussions is not a negative.

We've been looking over old headmin and policy rulings recently, and while many of them are simply obsolete or a simple change to the current defacto standard, some of the old rulings will need proper rewrites. As a start to that, I'm opening this thread as a discussion ground for finding out what p...

With the all of the recent discussion about the playability of heads of staff as actual authority figures, I think it's a good time to bring this proposal back up - making heads of staff protected roles that can't be antagonists. Part of the problem with command that isn't the captain or HoS having ...

Looks like this one will be going to the Headmins then. I'll flag one of them down to review, and I wish you luck with their judgement.

Hi, thanks for making this appeal Public logs for each round are available on scrubby https://scrubby.melonmesa.com/round/160748? and https://scrubby.melonmesa.com/round/160685? Virus logs are unparsed and thus unavailable publicly, but for any other admins who want to crosscheck my logs, they're he...

The antagonist portion of the ban was assigned and has remained at 5 months.

I agree with Timber for the most part - the problem with elites coming to the station isn't so much that they do it, it's whether they should have free reign to kill anyone they please and act to depopulate the server because they can while they're there. Elites should be (and as far as I am aware, ...

Alright, I went over the logs from the round, since I remembered the events of the round occurring differently from how you described. Logs from this round can be found here https://scrubby.melonmesa.com/round/156884 Firstly, it appears the HoS attempted to have you demoted for initially refusing to...

How, there was one genetecist and a scientist, the scientists was my target. Also there were other people but I guess they just ghosted There were two geneticists and one scientist active on station - with one AFK assistant in an escape pod. The scientist was your target in toxins and you kidnapped...

I was also observing the round in question - neither of the people you killed were your target
In fact, you killed every active player on the station EXCEPT your target.

Hello again I would like to clarify that your ban was escalated to a perma based off your substantial note and ban history, and the fact that that you were on a last warning for habitual rule breaking. There has to the best of my knowledge been no reversing of course surrounding rule eleven or a rep...

While I do agree that dynamic could use further tweaking towards a preference for more start of round full-antagonists and more backloading on its midrounds, even as it is now I prefer dynamic to secret in almost all circumstances, and have been arguing for more / full dynamic since before I became ...

Hi Thanks for making an ... appeal? Is it an appeal if it's not your ban? Anyway, sorry for both the collateral ban and lateness responding to the appeal, wasn't able to access admintools for a bit. I've removed the CID ban from the original ban, so hopefully you should be able to play fine now, if ...

Only issue I can see with this reordering is the honestly pretty major change to harm-based coercion in the new silicon protections Asimov-Specific Policies Silicon Protections 1. The occurrence of any of the following should be adminhelped and then disregarded as violations of Server Rule 1: 1. Dec...

Runs good events, handles problems well, is constantly on the lookout for more bugs to feex, and offers a wealth of coderknowledge for on the spot technical support when needed.
Promote!

Was the word nigger directed at someone of African descent? This is relevant since the host has stated just saying a racial slur, such as nigger, is not in itself prohibited. Best regards The actual race of the person who was targeted is both unknown to me and irrelevant, malicious intent to demean...

Hi, Thanks for making an appeal. The logs for the round in question are here https://scrubby.melonmesa.com/round/148245/files?file=game.txt Everything you said that round, first outside the kitchen, and then in the reeducation centre after sec dragged you there for slurring at people in the first pl...

TRANSLATION FROM MANUEL POST INTO NORMAL POST Antagonists causing departmental disasters is fun and interesting. Generic murderbone is not fun, but departmental disasters cause interesting conflict so antags should get to use them. This would increase paranoia while restricting mass destruction to ...

There's currently a lot of interesting stuff in the game that's locked behind the fact that using any of it will almost invariably kill a bunch of people, stuff like the creation of singularities and Teslas from a delaminating supermatter, plasma flooding as a non-AI, large scale hostile release of ...

Timber is both very active helping people with solving bugs and learning the game, and great at spicing up rounds that are getting stale with button pushing, it's great to have be a full codermin now!

Heya, thanks for making an appeal. I've talked with the other Manuel-mins on adminbus and they agree with you that the note is overly harsh for an overreaction to an item spawn that is in the game as an intentional red herring, as such I've edited your note to "Warned - Arrested a suspected ant...

Metacommunication is normally a zero tolerance permaban on TG for very good reason, we have no way to know what was said between two people communicating using out of game messaging. As was, the fact that your ban is only for five days is due to your honesty and forthrightness when questioned about ...

TG doesn't currently have an MRP only server ban - If you break the rules on Manuel, you get banned across all TG servers. As I stated in the ban, you're welcome to move over to the LRP servers once your dayban expires, or to come back to Manuel if you're willing to not repeat the behaviour you were...

The gluttony morph syringe explicitly makes you antag so that's not part of the same issue Feels pretty shitty that "using this item makes you an antag so all's fair" applies to people spawning in as lavaland ghost roles. It was before my time, so I'm not sure on the specifics, but weren'...

It's getting unreasonably common on Manuel that ghost roles like the charlie crew, free golems, lavaland hermits and anything else that can get a clear run to the station are used to spawn in, and then immediately assemble as quickly as possible a method of travelling to the main station so that the...

However, I also think there shouldn't be any bans nor strict ruling for this. If the HoS is or wants to be incompetent and promote prisoner to Warden, let them be incompetent and deal, just as well, with IC consequences. Being on the receiving end of a prisoner going nuts after they were meta promo...

I've so far been on both sides of "prisoners getting recruited by sec" rounds, prisoner is a fun role and Manuel still has decently high Rev and Cult rolls at higher pop levels, so recruiting isn't uncommon when those gamemodes roll. I feel however, that there's a pretty significant differ...
