What you are saying is punishment is record keeping. Having records of the past actions of a player and taking them into account can result in their future actions being treated more harshly. As you believe this is in of itself a form of punishment, you believe that record keeping is punishment. As...

CPTANT

yeah it actually seems like there’s nothing on exploiting or using bugs in the rules, except for rule 4 which states antagonists cannot abuse exploits/bugs. obviously there’s an unwritten rule about cheating and abusing exploits for an advantage, but does this specific use of the bug/exploit count ...

CPTANT

The issue WAS reported. Literally to you, this makes all the arguments about people having no reason to report exploits moot. Placing the ban from Thunders perspective is fine, but in the appeal it becomes clear they did report it and the punishment should reflect that. And of course whether or not...

Okay, this is annoying me enough that I'm going to try and explain this as best I can so hopefully you can understand this, assuming that you're arguing in good faith and this isn't just being mad at admins because they're admins. In /tg/ policy, any instance of a player getting to Centcom is consi...

CPTANT

Right, but Sinful had enough information to know what was in that syringe when he made the choice to dismember the chemist. He was incorrect in believing the chemist had tried to kill him and broke the rules in how he retaliated. Nothing the chemist did could be considered a rule break here. The qu...

CPTANT

We've already established that chloral hydrate cannot kill you at the amount that fits in a syringe. This is also removing any context about you being in the middle of beating the piss out of the clown. Your opinion on the matter is completely irrelevant to the facts. You made a mistake because you...

1) I can't be held responsible for Discord being held together with duct tape and dreams. 2) Go make a policy thread if this pisses you off so much. Literally ALL HE HAD TO DO was go "yeah okay, here's how you do it" and he wouldn't have been banned. Also every take I've ever seen you hav...

CPTANT

The only reason why "no one was hurt, no one was griefed" was because they were caught before something could happen. This was not some whimsical fun time, this was an attempt to interrupt a mafia round that could have gone very badly. Also he did not "publicly" state his intent...

CPTANT

Which they did neither heeeey. Did you miss the part where they actively refused to tell thunder how to do the exploit? We have to ban people who do that. It's not an option. Calling it an exploit isn't some semantical bullshit we do to justify banning people, it's literally an exploit . You aren't...

CPTANT

So don't ban people over it..... People acting here like he broke into some federal bank reserve or something with this "exploit". Centcom is basically an OOC area, if people want to have their dumb moment of glory there let them. No. It's an exploit. There are things there that players a...

If it requires a multi paragraph post by the guy that implemented the feature to explain the consequences, then maybe this isn't knowledge every random player should be expected to know. 1. sinfulbliss was reasonable to assume he was shot with a lethal substance with the knowledge he had. 2.

CPTANT

"it's creative" isn't an excuse for abusing exploits and relying on metainfo. Counterpoint: It absolutely is. Centcom exploits are a really stupid reason to get banned. There's nothing really too interesting there, and definitely nothing worth getting banned over. So don't ban people over...

CPTANT

This ban made me more convinced that there is a large group of admins that just categorically hate fun and hate everything outside of a predictable repeatable metagame.

How is this not obviously IC conflict.

Chaplain killed the wizard for obvious reasons. Captain says wizard was friendly so killing him is a crime. Losing a weapon seems like a pretty mild punishment to me for murder.

CPTANT

Damage while on fire needs to go up. Damage after the fire is out due to high temperature needs to go down. Burning clothes should last about twice as long.

CPTANT

Why don't we just go back to the situation we had before where the word was merely insulting IC and there was no problem whatsoever.....

CPTANT

Like others have said it is mostly a code issue. Writing more in a situation where someone is carving you up with an esword is simply directly hurting you. I think people should have some slack for being short when they get jumped, they are fighting for their life and their adrenaline is sky high.

CPTANT

It's imo default done right. The only other non-gimmick map is arguably Delta, which has weird maint sprawl everywhere.

Just max your suit sensors, then people can track you. If you don't have time explain what's going on in detail, then maybe you should focus more on your survival rather than trying to specify someone's hostility.

Suit sensors can take quite a while to track down, especially in maint.

CPTANT

I have no idea why people are saying it is good, in my experience it messes up every other sentence.

CPTANT

Honestly I would say the old gameplay loop that brought me into this game is long dead. The entire appeal of the game was that as an antagonist you could abuse dual use systems on the station to increase your power and perform mischief on the station. This has been replaced by a system where antag p...

CPTANT

Even if MSO says its' not allowed I feel like the ruling on this is coming from too obscure of a place for both most players and most admins to be aware of it. Just ban the word entirely. Or just return it to how it always was without any problems? An offensive derogatory term for lizards that was ...

CPTANT

Just because you "didn't know" about a headmin ruling that doesn't mean you should walk away scot-free. Obviously an exception should be made to new players, but in your case it shouldn't. Headmin rulings (should) carry the same weight as the rules, otherwise there would be no point in th...

Because there is a difference between dickery and being a dick. Tide is good and creates content.

I think there's some issue to be had with making them unrestricted just because it doesn't make a lot of sense.

I feel like people forgot that the actual reason ERP was banned was that there were literally people RP'ing penetration in the dorms every other round. That this "zero tolerance" has been extended to lewd jokes and the like is honestly sad.

Honestly trying to police this just demonstrates a lack of confidence in the playerbase.

At least make the ID console actually apply an ID set when you select it. The current system where you can select it but it actually does almost nothing because the sets never fall within what is painted is just dumb.

Yes I've known for years how to deal with this, it's still dumb.

I don't like that system as much as the current one. Nerfs the whole effect of trims What effect? It's an extremely inflexible and unintuitive system.

Honestly the access card system is a complete mess. It's unintuitive and restrictive. I know this was done to prevent people getting unlimited all access but it is completely overdone. Very unintuitive with requiring to paint the card and the trim etc. The system should just be: 2 types of cards: Cr...
