A democratic system is broken if you can be thrown out for having a dissenting opinion

It's not a democracy, it's a meritocracy. The last thing coderbus needs is memecoders, one goof is enough.

Security sucks to play because the default assumption for why you do anything is because you're a valid hunting salt seeking piece of shit who cannot possibly be motivated by anything more than the most basic of primitive animal insticts to hold down the smallest monkey and fart on him. Go play sec...

the security department is a reference to the stanford prison experiment

Scott

The round end report could definitely be offloaded to a different window and then it could be organized so it could contain more information, such as this thread's idea.

Scott

If you can justify knowing the antags are harmful and will cause even more harm by subverting you, an heroic self-termination is acceptable and encouraged roleplay wise.

Scott

I too had my instruments spaced by sec officers in the past, they always get away with it.

If you want privileges to team deathmatch antags, you can't do regular crew stuff like fighting someone for/because of an instrument. If the crew cannot reasonably fight back, you get these threads.

What is the point to this other than being an attempt at realism? Is it ever fun losing your shit to a common hazard?

Precisely how do you think the AI can stop security from executing people without a secborg?

Scott

To have a laugh.

Scott

Our scapegoat here is "old coders".

Scott

The whole reasoning that they shouldn't was that they were immune to regular stuns. There is no basis that asimov should be non interactive in a violent environment in fact that is nonsensical. I believe that if silicons became vulnerable to conventional stuns they could regain combat relevant modu...

PLAYING THE GAME SHOULD BE A PUNISHMENT

Security is given too much leeway from the administration. Officers don't have antag status because nobody coded that in yet, but they might as well have it.

Scott

Give up on playing cyborg and play augmented humans.

You get total damage immunity as a fully augmented human. And then you have the cybernetic implants.

Cyborgs are not many steps away from being removed from the game anyways.

Scott

Someone code a barrier that only blocks mobs so the chef doesn't have to worry about people jumping the table.

Scott

Maybe these modes are just too common and their rounds will degenerate more and more. The solution would be make them less common so that when people have to be a gang member they will actually care.

Edit: Also have more extended.

Scott

That could be easily done, I think.

Scott

I told MSO to delete it because I didn't know people read that seemingly forgotten page/wiki.

Scott

Didn't we already try removing the "Inaction" clause and it just led to borgs bringing people to security and then saying "NOW TOTALLY DON'T BEAT THESE GUYS TO DEATH WINK WINK" It also lead to borgs abusing it as a technicality so they could actively harm people themselves indir...

Scott

My ideas to balance secborgs:- Replace their stunbaton with a telebaton Replace their cyborg disabler and laser with swarmer-style disablers - a moderate cooldown between each shot Remove any melee damage from the disablers and lasers so they can't be used to pistol whip while tele-batonning someon...

Scott

Cyborgs are supposed to be very efficient at their designated role, while being restricted by laws. The security cyborg had no inherent problems, it was a combat oriented cyborg memed into legend as being an unstunnable death machine but convieniently leaving out all the easy anti cyborg tools. But ...

Lets be honest here, do you guys really think borgs are still overpowered? Just how bad are you?

Scott

free terbs free fun

Scott

I dont know what the fuck a tontine is but he is right. If players are not willing to play the game and be candy glass for the tators to jump through, then why should they get the other half of the game? Something something grief lottery EDIT: At the same time this is basically impossible to enforc...

Add a genetic mutation that basically lets you see ghosts. You see ghosts, except to you ghosts look like they did before they died. And you can hear the dead chat and spend your time fulfilling the wishes of those who have died. I_Honk_dead_people.jpg I see dead chat. All the time. wrong thread ma...

Cables and pipes don't break under floors and walls anymore, so you have no excuse.

Scott

This whole thread is a farce; it reads like an unironic illuminaughty conspiracy with the headmins as the evil tentacle aliens from space. It doesn't sound like this is really about bandit being in IRC, but rather "quick, we need to nail them for something, let's go with this". You know h...

Scott

I love the fucking soundbyte that plays when you enter the detectives office now. Best change in yeara Fun fact: That soundbyte has been in for YEARS, it just was an ambient sound that randomly played there, and nobody spent enough time to hear it. fun fact it was added in march https://github.com/...

Scott

Who will end up quitting first, the people who make these threads or the people responsible for this deathmatch server?

Will the warnings ever be heeded?

Scott

i hate that goat

fuck that goat

Scott

But tgui is kinda slow, so how much would this prevent people with slower PCs from playing a 2D game?

Scott

fire pins were amistake

Scott

Just give Detective real snowflake loose cannon objectives. He doesn't need to be a syndicate traitor to be an anatag. This can easily be done once coiax finishes datum antags, but right now it would probably not be good coding. And if the Detective can be special antag in any game mode, it would m...

Scott

All maps that aren't actively maintained should be abandoned.

Scott

Fuck off, mongoloid. I repeat, this is not bay, where ERT gets called by captain so often, it's basically a gameplay element. The reality of /tg/ is, ERT is called only when the station is completely fucked/the round is basically over anyway/there's a murderboning antag who repeatedly recalls the s...

Scott

I am not the one who feels the need to control everything and everyone.

Scott

I am for decentralized Security.

If something really bad attacks the station, like Nuke Ops, the Captain can call an ERT.

I feel like criticisms should be constructive, do you care to elaborate?

Sec players are generally shit and you can't trust them not to abuse this, since server policy is currently very lenient towards Security.

Scott

Ah yes, more shit for security to abuse.

Scott

Its funny how poeple go say borg OP when you know theres a borg but still your not doing anything to it "Borgs are OP" You have twenty TC and multiple other ways to stop them. "Yeah...but they're OP" Do you not understand that: a) not all antags have the traitor uplink b) forcin...

Scott

If it's a recurring thing, it is griefing.

Remember those round where the greytide would lift every floor tile in the station?

Scott

There was no good reason to remove ban requests. It served a purpose and that doesn't go away if you remove the forum.

Scott

> Silicon players are assblasted, because they can't validhunt anymore Please, give me more of this salt, it's delicious. What is this meme about silicon players being validhunters? And even if they were, who doesn't validhunt in this shitty playerbase? And if silicons are breaking laws just to val...

I linked you directly to the Ideas forum, how did you end up posting here??

Good memes.

Are you saying Security needs to be removed?

Does security really need to limit itself to ten minutes for first offender shitters? Why not just straight up execute them on the gulag? he playerbase has finally devolved into the h-u-g-box memetards basically anything malkevin ever posts about security No shit the crew doesn't treat you nicely. ...

Test no Security for a week.
