Basically this.

QuartzCrystal

Players, when appealing a ban, should be given the option of having another player or an admin appeal on their behalf. Simply put, sometimes people get bans that are too harsh or unnecessary but they don't know the rules well enough, or precedents, and end up making really shitty appeals. Combine th...

QuartzCrystal

Honestly, reading briefly through logs you were a real shit, but it was all handled IC so maybe the week long job ban isn't necessary.

I'm just perpetually skeptical that anyone could mistake a taser for a pistol, let alone for several shots. If you're that unrobust don't play security.

QuartzCrystal

Where was the captain in all this?

Also this would be mutiny, but you can't mutiny by yourself I suppose.

QuartzCrystal

From a admin's perspective, and from admins logs and whatever users cannot see, how active has Hornygranny been this past week? I'll leave this to be answered by other admins as I don't want to make this poll appear more biased than it probably looks already. Uhh... can you enable revoting please? ...

QuartzCrystal

This is not an official poll but rather I am throwing this up here to make a cursory survey of how our community feels. (much like the poll that I made about public logs)

Simple yes or no. If you wish to abstain, simply do not vote.

QuartzCrystal

-- Administrator private message --
Admin PM from-Corruptroulette: No. It is not. Unless you are a antag you don't get to hunt dante.
Click on the administrator's name to reply.

This betrays some bias you may have towards the player.

QuartzCrystal

Apparently, according to Kor, this was a decision made by all the headmins and some game masters. So it wasn't just HG going ahead and deciding to deadmin someone without any warning, it was the whole group of them.

QuartzCrystal

This is pretty lame. Tedward responded to the post in the staffing log with "The fuck. I have been active." so no warning was given apparently. Hornygranny hasn't even been 50% as active as tedward has.

QuartzCrystal

Lollerderby is my protege and will soon be a headmin, as long as he doesn't stray from the one true path.

QuartzCrystal

Please keep in mind that the sticky quote I made and my post make no references to job changes or special snowflake roles. We're talking gear here.

QuartzCrystal

Act like security get treated like security. If you're arming up as a non-antag you get the responsibilities that come with that power whether you like it or not. I'd like to discuss this. I feel like simply by virtue of being outfitted like security does not and should not make you more responsibl...

I feel like this needs to be explored further separate from this specific issue.

QuartzCrystal

I'm going to look for a player to join the electionbus conspiracy with myself and MSO, last election was a bit much and frankly it makes sense that someone who isn't an admin plays a part in running this shit. I have a few ideas of who it should be, but I'm throwing this out here so people know. Th...

QuartzCrystal

As it nearly happened to hornygranny, removal of headmins is currently handled by myself and MSO. If anyone has any legitimate concerns about a headmin you can let me know, you will remain anonymous and MSO will work out the best course of action.

Scones I'm just a bit concerned about you stepping down just a little under 2 months ago. Ya'll gotta promise not to yo-yo.

QuartzCrystal

I pulled the logs and was going through it (before I saw Saegrimr's post here) and I was going to say [19:11:53]ADMIN: PM: Saegrimr/(Milton Sutton)->Alarmclock/(Rollo Kinsman): Does not matter, this is legit other admins would be permabanning you no discussion territory. Its pretty creepy compounded...

QuartzCrystal

Bryce Pax/IcePacks, I think he's funny.

QuartzCrystal

I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me how those servers hold their admins more accountable than we do.

QuartzCrystal

lollerderby was promoted to trialmin last week, forgot to post.

QuartzCrystal

Can you explain exactly what is different about those servers?

QuartzCrystal

Another long list of reasons why I no longer play here. It's becoming more and more difficult to hold admins accountable for their terrible mistakes. Instead of addressing problems here we just skirt them under the rug. Go ahead and apply the rarely plays title on me. I'd say I've earned it. Is the...

QuartzCrystal

I don't mean cases where a thread has served it's purpose or whatever, but when people are trying to have an on topic discussion and two or more people are arguing about something dumb or irrelevant it seems lame to lock the thing rather than stopping the shitters. And why is it necessary to have a...

QuartzCrystal

The whole settlement building thing is going to be a major time sink for me.

QuartzCrystal

Captain - Jebidiah Redbull
HoS - Bryce Pax
HoP - Jack Steiner

I don't care about the rest. This is the dream team right here.

QuartzCrystal

One thing that really needs to be done is to stop locking threads if an off topic argument is happening. Right now it is way to easy to close a thread you don't like by just shitting it up until the forum mods lock it. I think a good alternative is to warn both parties and then delete all their pos...

QuartzCrystal

Maybe like, this might be taking the whole electionbus too far?

Skorvold is resigning.

You took one of the good ones, you bastards.

I was on the fence about Tunder being made an AC, but now I'm off the fence. Dude, you done goof. When you're an AC (or trialmin, or game admin, or game master, or headmin but ESPECIALLY AC) and this many other admins are saying you done goof'd, shut up and apologize and don't do it again. Admins ar...

QuartzCrystal

Agreed with Vekter and Ausops on this. I purposefully only candidate 1-2 people at a time and I've started to make a habit of *only* candidating those players (currently it's lollerderby). We have a few too many candidates floating about who just say "Hey Jordie candidated me last week can you ...

QuartzCrystal

Probably gonna need a headmin here, Boris Pepper is played by Bluespace.

QuartzCrystal

I see no reason why we need to deny requests, but perhaps it could become a ban option for us to prevent folks from being respawned if they have a habit of abusing it?

QuartzCrystal

I changed my vote to yes. I was fucking with someone as clown and they then hid my body after they killed me for the second time, I deserved it.

QuartzCrystal

Yeah the only thing NikNak did wrong was not communicate with you enough during the round through PMs or deadchat or whatever. This actually sounds hilarious.

EDIT: For Stan though, next time something like this happens, adminhelp before you ragequit.

QuartzCrystal

Our playerbase is accustomed to the rules about being an ERT and roleplay it well more often than not. I see no reason why there should be an issue about Prisoner Transfers or what have you. To clarify, would the captain's request for these be admin-approvable only? I wouldn't mind seeing it as some...

QuartzCrystal

I like this as an admin spawnable antag. Some folks might be familiar with my Blood God gimmicks where I ominously global narrate things like " Yes....I can smell the warmth...the blood....let it spill..... " and " More....more blood....I awake.... " then I would spawn a weird lo...

QuartzCrystal

So uh,

who's looking forward to the E3 presentation?

QuartzCrystal

Just a note, the coderbus vote is actually the host vote, that was given by the previous hosts to coderbus. I don't currently plan on doing that, rather i'll let the current headmins at the time decide where it goes. This. I voted bot because the reality in which we face was not reflected. Though I...

OK so this is basically fluff but I think it would make things interesting. Right now in cult we have one elder/dark god, Nar'Sie. He is red and black and scary. What if cults had a randomized group of elder gods they could possibly be the cult of? What if there were maybe like, 3-5 dark gods that a...

I have a feeling the same people who have issue with Kor being made fullmin are the same people who would have voted for him in the headmin election. I am rather confused about how I seemed poised to win the player vote but now everyone is upset I'm an admin Because you're an admin now, before you ...

I like all of this.

Seems like this should be a policy change request really, I would crack down on botanists more but no one ever ahelps when one does something shitty.

We don't deserve you. But we need you.

So what is the point? There is practically no difference between communicating with someone you're doing an event with either through PMs ingame or talking on TS. There is a difference however between selecting someone for an event from ingame and through TS however, but apparently everyone wants to...
