/tg/Station 13

Quite a few questionable things here. Humans: Characters are required to have a first name and a last name, and may have up to one title, honorific or nickname. Names should meet a minimum standard of good faith - references to historical figures, juvenile nonsense (examples: Poop Boy, Dorkhead Mcge...

this isn't even a roleplay topic, it's just not fun to sit and wait for another player to let you play the role you want.

Call me crazy but... Robos wont need to eat entire station's worth of iron at the start of the round I always liked resource scarcity. It creates conflict, and motivates people. Scarcity motivates robotics players to go AFK. Scarcity of materials typically means the miners died, and most people who...

It's definitely a little disheartening when you can't roll either silicon, and the roboticists aren't interested or don't have the materials to borg you so you awkwardly sit there and wait, or waiting for posibrains hoping they know what the ghost sniffer does. Gonna have to agree with two, but not ...

Players spending their round gathering items to kill the most amount of people at the end of the round do not contribute positively to rounds, in my experience. They sit there in their offices making WMDs without anyone interacting with them. (Read: Toxins and Atmos, Sometimes Robotics) Rule 2 shoul...

why are you guys still posting in a thread made by a permabanned ban evader

Trying to get people to listen to you outside of being Captain or Head of Security is quite a miserable task, if heads are granted more protections/rights they need to be protected roles in the same way captain and HOS are. Heads of staff should be given full authority over their dept - just as the ...

Players aren't "too safe" on Manuel, I feel this is completely blown out of proportion by people not familiar with the server. There are a lot of antagonists as well as midrounds that ensure such will not be true. If people are complaining it's "too safe and nothing happens" the...

1. Murderbone as a word has lost its common-sense meaning. Personally, I don't think the word ever had meaning. It's always been "x has killed more people than I am comfortable with." A player, antagonist or not, should have a defining reason for ending another's life, temporarily or not....

+1 for this lad, even though he's secretly either a lobster or a felinid, I forget which. Good admin.

Spiders are easy to deal with. Grab a RCD and a space suit. Wall of the spider infested tunnels, then open a hole into space. You will be spider free within minutes. Spiders can make structures that block atmos. They inject far too much toxin on every click, two attacks is around 20 brute + 30-40 t...

Guns in bags are bad for the game.

All released viruses should be released in pill form and optional, regen coma is extremely debilitating and will knock you out with deceptively little damage.

I disagree. Heads of Staff, even in MRP, are not supposed to be the perfect all-knowing heads you completely trust to lead the station. You are not supposed to suspect anyone unless you catch them doing suspicious stuff anyway, so why should heads be treated any differently? In fact, a head basical...

Definitely needs to go, in my opinion. I think the argument "Nobody will play heads if they can't play antag" is quite silly. I feel a lot of people at least in my experiences don't play head because nobody gives them time of day let alone respect. Also, as per silicon policy: If the perso...

Covering your tracks as an antagonist is not powergaming.

Will any of this include or entail changing single letters on the n word? Word filter evasion should be against the rules.

I saw a traitor ask nicely to kill someone, plant a calling card, take the calling card out after collecting TC, burn the calling card, and revive the person they killed

Very interesting stuff

tgstation started as a medium roleplay server and was listed by the goons on spacestation13 for ages as medium roleplay until someone updated it out of spite. Given that our ruleset has not changed in any serious material ways since then I see no reason to consider our servers anything other than m...

would be nice if headmins could elaborate on why they specifically allowed people to say ligger but you can't change the l to an n, since mso vagueposted and closed the previous thread

Wizard would be great on Manuel if people didn't powergame wizard with guns, space loot, fireaxes, etc to round remove as many people as possible, while you are not allowed to powergame or validhunt said wizard Too many players get gamer mad on Manuel Yeah that happens when you wipe the station repe...

is this going anywhere? the rules should be clearly updated if MSO wants people to be saying "ligger", or other permutations of the nword in character with no threat of admin action being taken against you. especially since it's "our fun" to say ligger and gas the lizards and and...

The meaning and intent is radically different. Would you like me to get the intent of the specific situation that prompted this thread be made? Sure Seems like this player wanted to make a circuit that calls you racial slurs (this is not logged), and was disappointed it "doesn't work on humans...

well fuck me for typing longer and slower I guess I'm just gonna copypaste what I had Evading the Word Filter & IC vs. OOC Racism https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=29973 As per linked thread, headmins ruled that the word "nigger" will be added to the word filter as...

I think a great start for Families being able to harbor any form of roleplay is making all of their objectives/themes not based around direct videogame references/memes or arguing about which persona game is better. I'm also of the opinion that forced name changes IMMEDIATELY make people disconnect ...

sounds like an issue with you then

if you think everyone on manuel is nice you should play there for more than 3 rounds

He likes bread. He likes Rat'var. He's great with duct tape.

Need I say more?
