/tg/Station 13

How are we providing a better game experience if we had allowed someone to wordlessly snatch dozens of people out of the halls who were not their targets and cremate them just for the hell of it? SS13 is supposed to have some element of paranoia to it, and having 10 people randomly go missing becau...

Four years ago SoS had offered to host these servers in place of TLE, but this was on the condition that he would only assume the role of the host and not enforce administrative policies. We are now currently in a position where he is making sweeping changes to server legislation without consulting...

I'm just going to sit over here and wait patiently for HG and Anon get dragged out of their hate-proof safe rooms and be forced to justify banning the amusement that is ERP, only to be promptly tied down to a bed and force-fed sausages for eternity.

Dis gon b gud.

So if there's a thread about a change on the forums with 75 fucking percent of the people who voted on it saying that they don't like it, merging it is a extremely obnoxious thing to do. I mean it'd be one thing if the coder hadn't seen the thread until after the change got merged and they were like...

I enjoy slipping people to an insane degree. I play most rounds as botanist running around with 100 potency peels slipping everyone I see and watching to see how long until I'm lynched/fun police confiscate my fun. Whenever I play janitor I never upgrade my water to space cleaner, ever. I also basic...

Everybody knows that the mime is secretly batman.

He's the hero the station needs.

Update the botany page with information about the different colors of kudzu vines and what they do.

Also update the botany page with info about what mutating weeded trays can get you.

Oh boy. Police (security) are physically incapable of asking questions outside of their interrogation room. If you could have committed a crime, you're guilty and are to be met with the most heavy sentence possible. When in doubt, apply fire extinguisher. Taking a injured person to the hospital is t...

Ever since the botany update, botanists have become fear incarnate. One kudzu plant can produce enough kudzu seeds to infest the entire station, virtually guaranteeing a shuttle call. Try it sometime as tator. 100 potency death nettles are the single best melee weapon in the game in raw damage. It d...

So we've kinda been going back and forth on the exact same topic at least three times over and nothing new has been said, so I ask again:

What is the standing on my ban?

And I would say you owe it to the chaplain who you burned to death to sit out from playing valid hunting AI and play other roles. It's not even been a day. I wondered how long it was going to take for someone to say validhunting. And I disagree. I wasted something like 30 minutes of the chaplain's ...

Pybro, you're involved so you're good. If you whacked the guy with the armblade? You're good. Epi overdose? Okay, that's a little more out there, but I'm tempted to say, "Sure, go for it," simply because of the current state of rulings on metagaming not actually defining whether people ca...

But it wasn't a good reason to think he's a ling. AI is not meant to be "Antaghunter: The robot." Oh, but in the case of lings, it is. An AI that doesn't hunt lings is backhandedly permitting human harm by letting them roam free. So an AI, by law, has to hunt the ling scum on the station ...

That has been policy for ages. You can't go "OH MANNNNN HE'S BURNING A HUSKED CORPSE, BETTER TRY TO META THAT HE'S A CHANGELING" and then go "I DID NOTHING WRONG!" when you killed a human. You've demonstrated a complete and utter inability to understand silicon procedures. Appea...

Soooo...

What's the standing on my ban? I've explained my case as best I can. Repeatedly. Don't really think there's much more that can be said on the matter, especially when this case has been so specific that it's demanded an addition to silicon policy.

So could I have the jobbans lifted?

Consider these statements: A) A changeling is not human B) Humans are protected by law 1, do no harm to humans C) The chaplain might be a changeling. D) The chaplain has not been seen sucking dna or transforming into someone else Sort the above into facts and opinions Fact. Fact. Opinion, refer to ...

I tried talking it out with you, but you were being unreasonable and denying any sort of responsibility for your actions and attempted to deflect any argument to something not even on subject of the question. That being said, I don't feel like you understand why you're banned from AI because you're...

Yes, you can absolutely be 100% certain someone is a changeling, by catching them draining somebody or seeing them transform. The AI is not designed to be a validhunter, your laws will very often force you to protect people who are probably antagonists. But what if they had a UE injector from genet...

Byond account and character name: David273 Blob Overmind (273) (AI) Banning admin: Brotemis Ban reason and length: Incinerating the human chaplain during a ling round after he incinerated a husk, causing me to believe he was a ling trying to destroy an absorb. 1440 minutes, and a silicon jobban. Tim...

Why haven't you lot ever tried to sabotage the cloning database at NanoTrasen HQ?

I want mining scanner pinging to never interrupt mining, so you can just hold, say, W and constantly ping for resource locations and slowly mine your way there. The second idea is one that's been in desperate need of happening for a long, long time: Move R&D to the asteroid. The main mining base...

I talked a wonderful and attractive admin into blobbing me during the early stages of a ling round. I proceed to 420 blaze it as blob and am basically immortal when the shuttle is called. Go to escape and wait. Centcomm: If there is any trace of the gelatinous xenobiological entity on the shuttle or...

Before you lies a thick manilla folder that has obviously been passed around quite a bit. Not only are the edges are incredibly worn, but there's more than a few coffee stains dotting the surface along with a large red stamp print reading 'TOP SECRET'. >Open the folder. You open the document and wit...

IT BEGINS People who demand an explanation to let you into anywhere, even if you let them watch what you're doing as you do it. Chemists. Chemists who attack you if you get access to chem from the HoP and steal your ID. Chemists who refuse to make you things for any reason besides it being dangerous...

I'm not sure objectives that rely on having specific people do their jobs is a good idea. Never, ever rely on someone else's competence in SS13. Ever This. THIS. THIS. I've had maybe under 20 cases where other people have performed their jobs well when I've been needing something done, and I've bee...

I enjoy playing against, traitors, lings, and (brace for the herecy) blobs. Traitor is just general, balanced fun, and when the traitors are actually being subtle and not e-swording/bombing, there's a lot of fun to be had. Ling is fun because of how slow it can be, and how it's easily the least dest...

Why would you NOT use confiscated traitor items as Security to help you? Normally I award non-lethal traitor items to my Officers when they catch a Traitor with their gear. Traitor stuff is contraband. Security is supposed to obey the law and either destroy traitor stuff, or put it in the contraban...

>Is mime >Is also tator >Not in the mood to srs tator, so takes stuff to be fun joke tator mime instead. (EMP flashlight, noslip shoes) >Runs around with EMP flashlight EMPing people and then running away, having fun, etc. >EMP HoS who proceeds to chase me down for 5 minutes and arrest me. >"Yo...

Any headgear removes the drainbamage from the bible, including papers. A proactive chaplain with a MEDHUD and a bible full of papers can heal infinitely at no cost.

To be fair about the Xeno thing, I had a round as RD where one of the miners brought in a facehugger, and someone volunteered to host it. The resulting Xeno was in that wierd misc testing cell or whatever and evolved to queen, but we never gave it any more hosts. I told the scientist in charge of i...

So Botany's been recently updated to be really, really, really good. Now, Botanists can very easily make hyper-potent death nettles and run around with them being fearsome as fuck, and, in the event they get injured, having an infinite supply of most any healing chem only a pack away. And yet, somet...

That sort of douchey, valid hunting behavior is the cancer. Valid-hunting? Nah. I don't look for ways to make people valid. People make themselves valid. I mean, really, what POSSIBLE reason would you have as a non-antag to raid telescience's crystals and start throwing them at other scientists? I ...

>Is scientist. >Doing telescience. >Some chucklefuck walks in and demands to be a part of the process. >I tell him to fuck off, I ride alone. 8-) >He starts getting pushy. >He eventually leaves. >I leave telescience for a minute. >As I walk back, I see that the chucklefuck has raided the crystals an...
