/tg/Station 13

honestly giving an annoying detainee a lil harmbaton here and there is a perk of the job, especially for the hos. it should be expected. i used to do it all the time when i played sec and i'm not ashamed to admit it. some people deserve a beating and i'll be the first to hand it out...

i honestly do feel for this dude, hos is worse than captain for stress, probably the worst in the game for it, and under the heatlamp of rules (mrp rules at that) it can be really easy to just throw your hands up and say fuck it, i'm not doing this anymore because of how much it sucks. but it was a ...

by all accounts you got off with a very light punishment which you probably won't experience again unless you take the patience and understanding you were given to heart. everyone gets pissed at this game, including me. it's literally designed to be annoying. but please either log off or wait until ...

I always thought the manuelcord was cringe because it just looked like a big metacord, but I can see why it exists now. i would definitely describe it as having an element of cliquishness but ultimately i feel it's a net positive because mrp players have their own concerns and tribulations with mrp...

bro when i first joined manuel i joined the tgcord to talk about a round and was literally told "why are you posting about manuel" manuelcord has its own issues but all of those would be greatly exacerbated by a never-ending live peanut gallery of lrp players finding any reason to hate on ...

can we take a moment to remember when kendrick couldn't figure out how to embed youtube videos? this thread had some good moments

on page 1 cheshify said the appeal was reopened it might have something to do with the fact that it's information that took multiple people half a week to go through involving almost 20 players it might be a little difficult to retain an indexed reference of every incident regarding every person and...

snip that is really awful. for what it's worth i'm sorry you had to go through that. you have no reason to believe me (and i understand why you wouldn't) but i have not witnessed any conduct like this in my time or during this investigation and if i ever see anything like it i would not stand for it.

my favourite interpretation of money will always be for the roleplay of having stacks. i personally have never really cared for a "balanced" economy where money has a very important role in the game. if someone is offering me a briefcase full of cash, i'm going to accept the bribe because ...

i love this so much now i can stand around in cargo chain smoking in a suit with the tie undone yelling BUY BUY BUY SELL SELL SELL and then hang myself when my bananium stocks crash

laying the blame at chesh's feet like this was some sort of kneejerk post-election assassination of a fellow candidate is delusional. this investigation was opened a very long time ago and chesh was one of the loudest voices about how we shouldn't act on anything that isn't concrete when all we had ...

this was not a high-five moment for admins, to the contrary it's actually been very taxing on everyone emotionally. the players involved are not evil and by all accounts were very well received on the server and most people really liked having them around. but there is no timeline in which i'd ever ...

it's almost like the people making the code and designing the mechanics are totally detached from the people running the rounds and dictating rules around gameplay and roleplay

if you have anything against autistic people then you will never end up in an admin position in this game, their argument makes no sense

i'm so tired of the slur discourse bros. every week we argue in circles around this shit. no admin who discussed this ruling at the time (and there were a lot) agreed that the acting captain was in the right to grab a makarov and wordlessly riddle the QM with bullets because they called them a retar...

my second bus leak of the thread

what happened is manuelmins sometimes looked the other way when people saying the n-word and shit got round removed and now it has been ruined because this small understanding has grown to encompass all bad words and is taken for granted instead of being a special use case for rare situations I can...

damn yall made the thread good this owns

It is entirely possible that multiple admins are taking a rule 0 stance in regards to words like "retard". If that is the case then we would benefit from re-evaluating rule 11, specifically on what the player expectation for it is. However that also opens up a can of worms in itself. i ha...

adding what i feel are relevant facts for this: in the entire log file for the round there are only 2 instances of this player saying a bad bad word, and only one of those times was in the cargo bay: Line 7763: [2023-08-29 21:38:56.739] GAME-SAY: Dr . Oof/(Spreads-The-Doubt) "what kind of monum...

We already removed assistant (and sec) access for a month in Moth/Melb/Poes. Nobody really noticed any change from turning it off. So it was secretly turned back on. Nobody noticed it being turned back on, either. Nothing changed. this was when i had a stint as hop and guess what the assistants lin...

While observing a round in Manuel, I was spawned as Birdboat in the abandoned bar, where a xeno queen had made her nest. My name was changed to "xeno hunter" and I was told by a voice that I was loyal to the queen. After hearing those words I proceeded to fruitlessly defend the nest from ...

TBM is already a legendary part of manuel he is able to make rounds fun just by existing and brings a lot of the ye olde smaller table ttrpg feeling when he's at the helm he's gonna do a great job

What is bagil

a "retirement community" (decrepit old folks home)

space communists are a fictional part of the setting they're from paranoia rpg and have been part of the game's dna since the something awful forums and /tg/ got a hold of the code well over a decade ago

imo there's nothing wrong with engineers building shit in their downtime when the station doesn't have holes in it. it's in the spirit of the game. it's also in the spirit of the game to clean graffiti and signage in public areas to combat it. it's not in the spirit of the game to act ICly with the ...

it was already ruled an IC issue when all they were doing was removing what they saw as graffiti. what caused admin intervention is that they explained in ahelps that they were acting on the fact that they don't like what the flags represent and that the "counter-graffiti" they wrote was ...

excellent idea for a thread. i have so many memorable rounds that it's honestly impossible to even begin to sort them out in my head. one of my favourites was when i played lawyer on manuel and saw a heretic being brought in. i immediately jumped to shoving sec away from my client and demanding to b...

i started playing this dumbass game cus i used to lurk in the dwarf fortress irc channel back in the mid 2000s and it was a really good place to hear about super niche autistic games to play. a conversation started about cantr II (a shitty browser mmo but it was novel back then) then someone respond...

I'm gonna run for headmin next term and ban everyone from the forums that uses fucking playtime as a way to put someone down. I get why the argument for hours can be bad, but at the same time, I want admins/headmins that actually play the game, even if they mostly observe. Sometimes it comes across...

is there anything wrong with the administrative side of the game/community that you take issue with? what would you do to bring it more in line with what you want? how much individual responsibility do you think an admin should be allowed in how they conduct themselves in their role? how strict of a...

rather than saying that you'll discuss it with them amicably (this is the easy answer,) let's assume that the other 2 headmin elects totally oppose your primary platform promises and you're not able to convince them otherwise. what would you do about it? how closely do you think headmins should work...

i have irc logs from 2007 where me and my dnd group are discussing ss13 rounds. i was playing this dumb game when some mfs here were still latched to a tit for sustenance. there are still people who know more about the game and how it works than i do. you don't need 2k hours tracked playtime to be a...

another reason why we're voting fikou for all 3 headmin positions

because it's not an issue that's endemic to manuel. there is no power structure within manuel that allows these metagangs to run the place, nor is it an issue that encompasses every regular player. there are a couple of small friend groups who are kinda bad at socializing and play the game in an ins...

i disagree with anyone who says that it's fine to misdirect or ignore player concerns outright. it hurts player trust in admins taking their concerns seriously, which they should be doing. but if every third-party report about an incident they weren't involved in required a full write-up of every de...

there is no evidence to suggest that the reason some people wanted to be skeletons and some people didn't want to be cyborgs is because they're all in a metagang and are intentionally excluding you. the average manuel player dislikes the idea of metagangs just as much as you do. metacomming is inve...

i think it would be interesting when it's used to run an event that needs less communication for it to work. something that would benefit from the increased paranoia and isolation. otherwise, being able to communicate with the crew is how you organize any sort of player-run shenanigans. it's a pains...

i don't personally find much wrong with this response. it wasn't rude, but it was perhaps dismissive. however the report was being made by someone who wasn't involved and had no greater context of the situation. they don't really have any right to any further information about the people involved. t...
