the "hard" Pop cap (the one being discussed) only counts alive players in the game. When people die, their slot opens up. When people go braindead, their slot opens up. Their job slot stays closed, but pop cap wise, it only counts players attached to a mob that is alive. For reference, th...

If security is legitimately beating the shit out of you for no reason you would adminhelp it. If "for no reason" is actually for once "for no reason" someone gettin' sec bant. If "for no reason" is actually "I pushed past the Captain onto the bridge and then demon...

People who still escalated right to murdering someone for no goddamn reason got bannu'd just like any other job. It's sound ridiculously harsh but in a lot of ways it's just removing all the red tape and bringing our expectations of security officers down to what we expect out of most players with ...

Space law isn't the issue. For one, I've almost never seen security go and get the book and read it to figure out the time. Typically random officers are the ones setting the time with whatever they think fits and not rushing off to space law. They just know petty shit: sub 5 minutes varying on seve...

I miss that gimmick (inb4 I steal it), but no someone is actually named old man in game. He means Oldman Robustin, I'd assume. That's the only "old man" I've ever seen in game. And was my other post really removed because I thought the guy was dumb for using "problematic" as a j...

Would it be possible to add both and let a ling choose between the subtle and stealthy approach or the more violent and carnivorous one? Or even just focus lings on being entirely stealty and focus gameplay/abilities around that and add in a new antag who is more carnivorous and vicious.

I'm still in opposition of human mononames (lizard privilege, yo!) and oversaturation of dank memes. Not that I have any objections to Chang E. Ling, Cindy Kate, or Armin Buser, because those are dank in a subtle manner. Also, Erisian, please don't strawman. Where was the strawman in my argument? T...

> Greytiding is the sane response Is this how people justify being shitters in their own mind? Well, to be fair, when security is being shit (whether it's justified or just due to the chaos of a round) people aren't just going to be dragged off to perma quietly. They won't sit there, have their shi...

Let's not make 'it's offensive' a consideration in the rules, please. You want to play with a guy named double-nigger-farts? Just saying, there should be a line in the sand somewhere. As far as immulsions go, There is too much to cover, it should remain case by case. No, because when if you ban som...

I suppose it's a question of clearly defining the line and then deciding where to move it to in order to suit our server needs. What do we want to impose? How about we not impose anything and let people name themselves whatever they want to. Can we not do that? Take Luck for example. It's a mononam...

You're misunderstanding. Old: Everyone has to have explosive implants. People who don't want them can't opt out. Current: Everyone has the option to have explosive implants. People who don't want them can have them, people who don't want them can opt out. And nobody is wasting TC on buying them. Wh...

How is it that I'm the bad guy for "forcing" this shit upon people, but it's ok for people to force explosive implants upon me ? It's awesome that your opinion is worth more than mine!! Is that a joke? You are one person. The server and people who comprise it is far more than one person. ...

As a clown I always tend to buddy up with the mime and try to help him talk, especially if they're arrested since security is notorious for not uncuffing them to let 'em gesture or write properly. And for some reason people seem to always not understand what gestures are trying to say. So, I like to...

>Gang leader, old gang version >Start converting some folks >Engiborg gets on my case, stop and pretend to be normal helpful crew >I make a joke at Mekhi Anderson's expense >Cap likes the joke >Invites me to his office >OBOYOFUCKOBOY >Decide to RP along, take a seat >Captain asks if I am willing to...

Put me in with the Doge guy. We'll be the meme team. MC Honk Deez Nutz the clown signing up. So, just put some dumb clown picture in my spot, I guess.

Nearly every round I played would have me in the brig for ten minutes for a minor crime that either wasn't my fault or was legit as fuck on my behalf. Massive fucking citation needed, you don't get 10 minutes for a "minor crime" that wasn't your fault even under JLP rules, it sounds like ...

If you're bored of SS13... STOP FUCKING PLAYING SS13 People enjoy the game. That's why they're talking about ways to make it more fun and add more depth. Going "lol then just dont fucking play" isn't a solution. Pointing out flaws in something doesn't mean they need to leave and get the f...

I don't see why we need a population cap in the first place. I don't see why people have such a hardon about removing assistants. We've tried everything from making people join up as something else, removing maint access, etc., and people still played as assistants. Not everyone who joins mid round ...

This still sounds like bullshit. It is bullshit. I was the HoS and one who found it suspicious. I tased him, pulled him to the little table near his desk, and emptied his pockets, checked the backpack and box inside. Found nothing, uncuffed him and thanked him for cooperating and walked off. Nobody...

think how many round start suicides there would be if you force filled security. It's not about making people play sec, it's making the right kind of player WANT to play security, It's not about forcing people to play sec, but filling the quota. Right now, for example. 62 players on server. I had b...

If what he did was fine on its own, but it stopped being fine the moment he asked up the chain of command, then he's literally being banned for trying to follow the chain of command. He got banned for following the chain of command, not liking the answer, than deciding to ignore the chain of comman...

The captain declared war on the plasma men. Which lead to the superpower might of the plasma men nation invading. Most people complaining about this event are the ones who died for one reason or another. What they don't realize is that ss13 revolves around death. If you don't like dying then play a...

Because once you're not able to toolbox the bbeg it means the game is more or less over, there is no more interaction between players or any struggle. Its just one person clicking on the others until the round is over. And from a story standpoint I'm a sucker for the underdog and the last stand. On...

New thread since head admins keep dodging this question. As security, what is the appropriate course of action if the brig is rendered unusable? http://sd.keepcalm-o-matic.co.uk/i/bend-over-and-take-it.png Apparently this from the general attitude towards them lately. Their hands are tied more than...

I think security could use a little leeway. I know we had major issues with security in the past with being massive dicks, but come on. They can hardly do shit it seems without either getting flak from the crew or the admins. Take the cuffs off a little and let them breath. And I'm saying this as a ...

It's all about phrasing. I wouldn't start by saying "Hi" because it sounds kinda smarmy in the context of HEY LOOK I JUST SENT YOU THIS BIG BLOCK OF RED TEXT AND A SOUND EFFECT just to say hello. You should never start an admin PM with 'hi' and try to make it a casual conversation just ge...

Its been suggested for a long time to give the cameras a ability akin to the AI eye. That'd be a lot more useful, or like the other guy said, at least directional arrows to keep switching around. As it is you have to keep going down this long list of cameras, and by the time you scroll down to find...

This rule is pretty dumb. I've seen people type words incorrectly before. Is that improper because in real life people can't misspell a word when speaking? Typos happen, and sometimes people bite their tounge. If someone says "pls respond", is that not allowed because it's also a meme? Ha...

This rule is pretty dumb. I've seen people type words incorrectly before. Is that improper because in real life people can't misspell a word when speaking? If someone says "pls respond", is that not allowed because it's also a meme? Not to mention you can say all these things in real life ...

I agree with Psyentific and FreakyM. This place just has something about it that makes it more fun than other servers, mainly because of the people. Even though many (but not all) the players I remember from way back are gone, it's still good to come back and see some old faces and see new ones up a...

I've personally never seen this as some major epidemic, and I usually play as a clown and tend to just wander around anywhere and everywhere with no troubles. Sure, the clown shouldn't be beaten up randomly, but you know going into that role that there's going to be a few people who hate you simply ...
