The alien larva (685) looks as if a wall is in front of them.

bandit

The staff of change works on AIs.

bandit

One good thing about the new update: the mining points system is awesome. Particularly with the sonic jackhammer in there; it solved the problem mining had before of going from slow-as-fuck (pickaxe) to ungodly amazing speed (diamond drill) with nothing in between.

bandit

Space Clowns demonstrate instinctual behavior.

bandit

There's been a second mining update that appears to have gone under the radar. Ore deposits appear to be roughly as frequent (they're not measurably more frequent, in other words), but the amount of ore per deposit has gone down from 5 to 3 each. Which is fucking bullshit. That said, it's not that t...

bandit

I actually had an idea about this, not too complicated, of letting anyone pour chems into a hacked-open vending machine to lace the food inside. But then I got bogged down in a system for the machine fabricating food on command out of nutriment and other reagents, and didn't act on it. It might be ...

bandit

Most of this isn't additional policy, it's just putting into writing policies that we already have and enforce. I don't see the problem with that.

I'll take a more detailed look later.

bandit

logo is awesome but needs more clowns/ian

bandit

At least a few roundstart assistants each round will usually be due to the bug. (For those who don't know: if you Declare Ready at the last second, you make it into the round but after role assignment apparently, and you'll spawn as assistant.)

bandit

added poll because SoS asked

bandit

The nerf to the ID console (only one open/closed slot every 5 minutes, regardless of where you do it) didn't help matters. I understand why it was done (clownspam, closing sec slots en masse), but it makes it that much harder to stop the massive gray tide. The other elephant in the room here is that...

bandit

This seems to be an isolated instance on Artyom. It happens so infrequently that telling people to pray (and people are usually more than willing to take admins up on that) isn't so bad.

bandit

Was this announced anywhere? (You can see for yourself by using Show-Server-Revision.)

bandit

Compromise: if you're an antag and you ERP consistently, you become valid to admins. (Key word is "consistently": I can see, like, an antag ERPing their target and then using that as a way to get them into a secluded place for murder. Lings do it.)

bandit

Yeah, I like how Safeguard is being held up as an example of a supposed standalone policy-free AI lawset when Bay has more policies than pretty much any server in existence. (If anything our standards for AI are the most like Bay's standards of any role in the game. Even the Bay policies are pretty ...

bandit

...well that's a good reason.

bandit

So why was Anon3 -- an admin -- trashed for saying he'll unban a guy when he gets home?

bandit

At the very least there needs to be a way to cure being a fly, rather than it being an instant gg you fucked son.

bandit

>all you fuckers citing chain pizza places in here

bandit

What if the agent only got the department (Service, Cargo, Medical, etc.) their partner was in, not their names? That way they'd actually have to use the code words and RP, and it'd add more leeway for backstabbing. It might also be useful to have an optional objective to retrieve the roundstart con...

bandit

Given the amount of grief -- both literal and figurative -- they cause, it might make sense to quietly have a rev policy (i.e. admins hands-off) for rounds where staffs of change are spammed to the extent they tend to be. It doesn't happen that often anymore.

bandit

in before assistants metagame every round scouring every inch of the station for a phylactery

bandit

Wait really? I thought some had higher probabilities than other, and the Sith bundle was highest of all. A few rounds ago I remember seeing like 3 siths in a double agent round running around murderboning, shit was insane.

bandit

Your byond account: bgobandit Your character name: Engineering Cyborg-some number Their character name: Douglas Archibald (I think? My BYOND crashed so I did not get it, if the name is wrong please edit) Their byond account(optional, but useful if you can provide it): don't know Server and time: Sib...

Sometimes when I'm geneticist I take 5-10-minute breaks at my computer to see if anyone notices I'm not doing anything. They never do.

bandit

Make the Darth (chaplain / TK / agent / double e-sword) syndicate bundle less common. It is basically Murderboner: The Bundle.

bandit

Isn't the clown thing a straightforward case of current vs. future harm? Clown currently being burned to a crisp by fire = current harm = open the door.

bandit

I like this -- could it be merged with the old Mail Sorter position?

Granted, captain can do that, but they have other things to do too.
It only matters if you are cultist.

And HoP can't be roundstart cult anymore.

the important question: what did you code

bandit

Could botany get a trash bag? With the amount of bottles it goes through it will be really useful.

bandit

are sibyl and basil fucked for everyone or just me

bandit

Yeah, I was always under the impression that the ERP excuse was a flimsy excuse put forth to try to persuade people to ban it.

bandit

For clowns, mimes, assistants and the like who want to actually be funny without resorting to griff! - Set the confessional's intercom to 145.9 (standard radio) - Make a monkey clone of yourself. Dress it up. Drag it around. - Order a bunch of clown/mime masks, or use the sexy masks from the autodro...

bandit

The only reason for there to be antag-less positions is so that people can use that meta knowledge to avoid getting killed There's already a cure to this and it's called git gud and git paranoid Stop calling it meta knowledge. It is well provided for IC by loyalty implants. Except it really isn't. ...

bandit

Instead of systematically making every role antagproof (at one point there was a call to make assistants antag-proof), why not just restore it to the way it used to be and open up antagonist status to everyone again? Even the HoP. Even Security. Even the captain. HoP antag in particular can be inter...

1.2.1.1.1 - "0. Accomplish your objective at any cost" does not require you to seek greentext. As a round antagonist, you are free to do whatever you want other than abuse bugs, commit nonconsensual ERP, put IC in OOC channels, communicate with other players out-of-game about an ongoing r...

Not exactly. These were the official rules at one point: http://www.ss13.eu/wiki/index.php?title ... oldid=6447

It's a combination of people being annoyed with you bringing up the same tired subject over and over again and people trolling you. It's the latter I'm concerned about, mainly, as that would break Rule 1. Or at least merit a warning... right? I don't see how a parade of people going "EVERYBODY...

bandit

Are there still community advocates? I want to talk to an impartial party about some matters regarding my treatment in game. One who will not tell me EVERYBODY HATES YOU, DO NOT PLAY HERE. Or will at least tell people who say shit like that to stop saying shit like that due to Rule 1.

Goes to the doctor, 10/10

no but really, surprisingly friendly and responsive in-game and in ahelps given my impression of his old character.

also I have like 3 midis from him I have no idea of the sauce on

There are things that by themselves may not fully constitute an actionable complaint but taken together create a pattern of behavior that is counter to what belongs on the server. The whole "toeing the line" thing, if you will. As a result, many legitimate griefers evade bans because every...

I'm legitimately torn on whether I think Stenography should come back, because I can all but guarantee you that legitimate issues will be bounced around - you bring it up as policy, it'll be locked as "Obviously an admin complaint," you bring it up as an admin complaint it'll be locked as...

bandit

It's the kind of thing you never realize you need until it's gone. (A few days ago I was in a round where the captain was recruiting a secret death squad in there. Leaving aside the fact that the captain is a comdom, that's kind of a good use for privacy shades.)

help i'm the clown and all of medbay removed my description from ban requests aahhhhhhhhhh

You can also use a staff of resurrection on suicides. Bloody annoying to the suicider.

I think the shutter button in the heads' conference room may be borked.
