Re: Local cultist abandons their faith for the machine god, gets smited for their sins

After looking at this... I think that the admin should reject the requested permaban from those roles. The appealant feels very similar to me and acts a lot like I do. So I feel like they're in way over their head and had a sudden impulse over this situation and they think it's a way bigger deal tha...

Re: Restrict Combat Mech Construction to Red/Delta Alert

I fully disagree, making and working on big, cool mechs is damn near the entire job fantasy of a roboticist. I don't think they get made every shift (half the time they don't is mostly due to lack of resources, but still), and like Vekter mentioned, they have a much needed deterrence effect, and are...

Re: I Got Reincarnated As A Blob Only To Get Immediately Robusted By A Single Roboticist?!

I was in this shift, and I was a bit incredulous at this fight actually. The blob spawned in the Bar area on Icebox, and the crew could not get to it easily because the staircase to the bar got blocked off due to a pyro anomaly plasmafire. So the whole crew could only go down in the back service are...

I'm opposed. Heretic should be primarily focusing on killing their targets. If they don't have an actual reason to kill random Joe Assistant who is just hanging out in the library, then why should they?
