Re: [Gogo9001] - Loojee - LRP event done with no respect to players.

So, you basically just did the exact same event again, which is fine and all, but you still didn't provide a poll or any warning at all. Nice. It's kind of surprising that you would say you would try to do polls/warnings around events like this and do nearly the exact same thing a day later and... n...

Re: [Gogo9001] - Loojee - LRP event done with no respect to players.

An issue I've encountered with events on Manuel is admins do something they think is funny for an admin to implement, which isn't always something that's actually enjoyable for the playerbase to engage with. 100% agree but I don't think any of the Admins involved had any malicious intention to just...

Re: [Gogo9001] - Loojee - LRP event done with no respect to players.

Understood. I am aware that many admins approved the event I just can't exactly put all of them here. I don't intend this to be a complaint on Gogo specifically, he's just the one that pressed the button. I understand where you're coming from with regards to the reasoning around the event. I just ha...

Re: Roleplay rules surrounding metagaming and 'staying in your lane' and the negative impacts they cause

Also I still think banning people from all servers for non-blatant RP breaks like this is just dumb. If people obviously choose manual to grief then kick them off all servers, but stuff like this shouldn't ban a player from a server where the rule broken doesn't even exist. If he wasn't warned for ...

Re: Roleplay rules surrounding metagaming and 'staying in your lane' and the negative impacts they cause

The hand teleporter is just a shitty item because it is classed as some super confidential item while it totally isn't secure or even that dangerous. Yeah you could randomly teleport around to see if you can break into places whoopsiedoodle. Also I still think banning people from all servers for no...

Re: Roleplay rules surrounding metagaming and 'staying in your lane' and the negative impacts they cause

The problem is that the hand tele is 'public', in the sense that no job has any particular claim to it, unless you consider commanding in general a job. By taking it you're not causing too much disruption, and it's a nice change of pace when you can carry a beacon knowing someone will retrieve you ...

I won't express an opinion on the botany thing but I'll tell you for free that the issue with the paramedic was less "staying in their lane" and more: Every round, he would There are plenty of things you can do without issue on an individual round basis that become tiresome or problematic...

Re: Roleplay rules surrounding metagaming and 'staying in your lane' and the negative impacts they cause

Roleplaying rules are a joke to begin with. To really solve the issue, the next round of headmins will have to rethink the implementation of anything MRP related on /tg/ and not just copy-paste rules from somewhere where the playerbase has a different mentality. I agree. Personally, I'm a big fan o...

Re: Roleplay rules surrounding metagaming and 'staying in your lane' and the negative impacts they cause

You're not wrong, but there are really, really easy ways for antags to get around people being able to recover bodies. There are plenty of easy ways to dispose of a body permanently: shuttlegib, emag + cremator, emag + kitchen, explosive, debraining. All of these remove the ability for the body to ...

Re: Roleplay rules surrounding metagaming and 'staying in your lane' and the negative impacts they cause

When we say "affects no one" we mean nonantags right? Being able to make your megahealing stat-maxed plants, or being able to easily pull bodies from hazardous areas like space certainly impact someone who is trying to keep someone dead. I'm not going to vouch for any bans mentioned here ...

Roleplay rules surrounding metagaming and 'staying in your lane' and the negative impacts they cause

This whole shtick revolves around two specific rules on Manuel. These two rules, actually: Don’t use OOC information or knowledge that your character would not reasonably be aware of just to give yourself an advantage. In other words, don’t powergame or metagame. This mostly means things like rollin...

Re: DinkleNH

Really loves to do some good 'ol admin abuse! Such as playing obnoxious music all the time and calling a gamemode vote and giving monkey 26 million votes. Nobody wants to play that. All in all, seems like kind of a no good rotten scoundrel.
