I had AI vox muted for a while unknowingly. Pretty sure hear/silence announcements is what toggles it. And it's shitty because I should be able to hear that the shuttle docked without also hearing retarded spamming. If the AI is abusing vox, then Law 2 ask it to stop If this worked, this thread wou...

In 2018 parents be naming their kids Brataytay and Skyrim Dovahkiin and Brumble and Abcde and admins insist yoi must be called something like Harold Weinstein or John Smith or else it breaks the immersion of a top down 2d sci Fi Garry's mod clone It's almost like those parents are retarded and we w...

Can we get some example scenarios of what should occur if silicon policy was removed? I don't really see the actual benefits, but that's also because we went from "AI is on the station to open doors and give information" to "the game is unplayable if the AI core doesn't have 10 lines ...

The introduction of Lizardpeople, then other species, naming conventions really screwed with our naming conventions to a ninth degree. The fact that you can have Lizards have utterly nonsense names, essentially one step being below a OOC name, such as 'Valids-the-Salid', 'Slits-his-Wrist' or 'Pushe...

You can harm a dead body, inflicting more damage, even after death.

It's more practical to define death as infinite harm, then dead body + 5 brute damage = still infinite harm

Saying that "RMS Lusitania was transporting war supplies" used to be a conspiracy too.

Even if we ignore every questionable detail related to 9/11, we should consider the fact that the media was instructed to use the attack to justify the war on Iraq.

If we removed the policy we would have discussions about what's right and wrong for asimov silicons to do

I don't think this needs to be solidified into a policy moreso than admins moving away from robocop and more onto the DM role. If an antag is lacking you could just spawn in another, or you could create an interesting event and see if the current antags were simply playing the bystander waiting for...

NOTD 2 and NOTD: Aftermath

leibniz

so I tried it, I think it's fun, nice to check up on the game progress between coding and stuff like that

leibniz

looks like this is some kind of MMORTS thats in alpha
https://starborne.com/

You start with a space station, you can queue up stuff to build (made by ex EVE devs..), then expand, raid, do missions, whatever.
I saw that matches last 3 months.

It looks ok to me.

quoted from the last post in the SAW thread before it was locked: Losing is part of the game. Your character will frequently die, sometimes without even a possibility of avoiding it.

I think nervere made good calls
- disallowing wiz suicide
- removing the ban about it that was made before the ruling was made
- stating you wont restrict antags beyond this
- not letting gamemasters mess with gameadmin bans

Anyway, the best way to communicate this would be a red prompt text they get when they spawn in telling them to ahelp if they dont want to be a wizard.
