I don't know a single person who didn't like the chocolate poisoning for cats, besides Oranges.

Light trolling with a new feature was both expected and part of the experience.

It won't come back because Great Leader didn't like it, but it was (and is) a great addition.

Arathian

You know, this was a good conversation and it something that still remains unresolved. I would like a headmin to at least chip in on this. On this note, I started keeping count since coming back and I get killed more often by sec than antags on Terry of all places. And those who play with me know I ...

Arathian

I don't understand why people attack skoglol like he has some nefarious plan tbh.

What is his master plan? Step 1: removing cloning step 2: remove cloning code entirely step 3: ??? step 4: world domination. Something like that?

I mean, I disagree also but take it down a notch.

Arathian

I prefer removing or putting cloning behind tech over this. This will get broken all the time.

Arathian

@skoglol: I would like you to consider 2 amendments before the PR goes through. The cloning ruin should remain. We still have things like sleepers, the old medkit etc in ruins (space or lavaland). They are meant to be rare finds that can be very useful to the round and a reward for the dangerous exp...

Arathian

Also, Oranges, if you can't take a bit of heat when changing fundamental mechanics, step down. I will add that part. I am not going to listen to you, who rage quit the entire server after I prevented you from posting in coding-general, lecture me about taking heat. I am perfectly happy to take heat...

Arathian

somehow this thread is even lower quality than the github pr :roll: Orangey, I've seen less drama in unban requests by pubbies caught griefing. Let alone something as massive as changing a fundamental mechanic that the game has relied upon for around at least a decade. A freaking DECADE. There game...

WGW is not bannable (unless done so frequently in different rounds that it crosses a line). It just makes you valid. This has been a long, long, long, long precedent and Wubli acted entirely correct in telling you that. Also, WGW is tradition. There are other servers with a huge stick up their arse ...

Arathian

That is a terrible idea krok, I mean come on. Printing unlimited ammo from any lathe is stupid, I agree. But ordering guns, ammo etc should absolutely be a thing. That's part of ss13 and it should be up to the captain/security to stop it if they don't like it (with whatever consequences trying to di...

Arathian

My notes: -Roundstart cloning removal VERY good. I long advocated for it and am happy. -Completely removing cloning VERY bad. Like, it's a fucking terrible change. I will write an autistic paragraph below to explain my reasoning. -Removing cloning ruin bad. Even if we completely remove cloning, the ...

Arathian

Magboots don't allow you to be slipped. I use them all the time when I do xenobio since the slowdown is negated by the slimes.

Arathian

Absolutely amazing lad and great terrymin. Always helpful and polite in all his bwoinks or ahelps.

Arathian

robocop is the only ss13 intro that is acceptable and I say that as a ssethtider.

Fuck the room theme.

Thanks headmins!

This is coming from the guy I had to ban from our coding channel for complaining about game changes. get the fuck off I was complaining about you trying to gut a thing I enjoy for """balance""" yes. Almost like I consistently don't like that shit you keep trying to pul...

Arathian

That's a false dilemma though.

Arathian

Oooor just put all the servers on dynamic, since it is overall a better gamemode with less opportunities to metagame, and the early problems it had have been addressed? It is no longer an antag-fest, luckily. But yeah, it still doesn't have that many rounds that are longer than about an hour, and t...

The game is an RPG and "balancing" stuff is against the spirit.

Arathian

Headmins voted between them to remove dynamic from Terry for (apparently) consistency. First of all, events hall is also EU and it is on secret, so EU players who really prefer secret have a low latency option already. Yes, events hall is dead. It's because people prefer dynamic on Terry. We had a p...

Arathian

Imsex is goodmin but should upload more agent videos cause those are my favourite by far.

Stealth cat > murderbony cat.

Arathian

Why is Terry on secret anyway? Terry had a vote and (I believe) voted overwhelmingly in favour of keeping dynamic.

If dynamic "needs more testing" maybe we should do that fucking testing on at least 1 server?

Arathian

It's not irrational, they don't fit with the scifi setting. Wizards, religious fanatics, curators etc don't either though. Not to mention the F-words. SS13 hasn't really been a "pure" scifi setting from the start. Why are vampires especially egregious? The car is already dented, lets just...

I think this is less about people looting a corpse's firesuit because the station is on fire right now and more about "lol time to break into medbay to get epic phat lewtz off of corpses. Neat, this assistant has insuls and toolbelt *YOINK*" type situations. why is this bad? I am saying w...

Arathian

There is nothing wrong with backing your stance, and you shouldn't expect people to just take openly derogatory languages or insults lying down. Insult them back. It crosses the line when you use your admeme powers to punish something that shouldn't be punished. I will never blame a mod for telling...

Arathian

Was the center of the whole Takov drama-llama. I have no opinions on them besides that since they seem to mostly admin in NA servers. I haven't noticed any bad bans coming from them and they didn't ban takov either. Although, if what Morto says is true, it is a big cause of concern. It's the interne...

Patron Saint of Robotics indeed. And a great admeme.

Here's to hoping it will be at least a couple of year before he becomes jaded and hates everyone.

Scenario: I was RD and I was the only head in med pop shift (30ish people). I go to secure captain's locker. I find a 'tider inside captain's office. I tell him to go out, he refuses, I stunbaton and throw out. A bit later (~10m) I was literally gunned down absolutely randomly by the detective. The ...

Arathian

Damage is meant to be difficult to repair though. If medbay is a crater every round then perhaps the issue isn't that there are no drones, but that there's too many ways to make it a crater/those ways are too easy. Limiting !fun! is not the way to make the game more, you know, actually fun. Having ...

Arathian

Wee! Grats Lepi!

So far, great interactions every time and has organized a few lowkey great events. I participated in yesterdays and it was really fun till someone stubbed-toe-tier called shuttle.

Arathian

Sounds interesting.

Arathian

Right, but I didn't announce it IC and only the admins knew (because I messaged them). Furthermore, changelings go into stasis from damage, not randomly. I highly doubt someone knows the game enough to know the changeling ability but also little enough to not realize lings can't get out of suicide. ...

Arathian

Quick feedback on Naloac (Aka Lepi):

Few interactions with them so far as an admin, all of them great. Made a very fun snail event today on Terry. I hope they become a full trialmin soon!

Arathian

I main RD, which along with the HoS, is the most "important" head for the station to function smoothly (hop also, but the comdom can do his job theoretically). I do it because, frankly, if no one is trying to tard wrangle a bit, research will be wasted, miners will never get their tools (m...

Arathian

with the fact that just before you left you suicided instead of letting me put a ghost in your body I am still unclear why this is a major issue for you. I had a problem at work. I informed you I had to go. If you wanted to put my body into some other ghost, there is an admin resurrect that clears ...

Arathian

My personal take on this is seeing if someone took his actions "in good faith". In short, were they acting because they truly believed what they have been told and the evidence or because they "got valids - time to toolbox someone yay!". Of course, there is a reasonability clause...

Arathian

If people involved in the stuff want an admin intervention, they will call for an admin. Stop ahelping stuff you are not involved in, snitch.

Arathian

Sorry but, lizard assistant in a grey jumpsuit while wanted and dead is NOT a confirmation that he was part of the greytide? I mean, I wouldn't have cared much but it's not like I borg people who mind their own business usually. I do borg a lot of low value people, but that's, as far as I am concern...

Losing is part of the game, and a part of the game I really like. And sometimes wrong information can lead to wrong actions that were, nevertheless, taken reasonably. My whole previous ban appeal hinged upon this. My problem is less upon people acting on strong, but in the end wrong, information and...

Drones are an outet for players who want to do their autism projects without bothering or being bothered by anyone else. Drones are also a great later game ghost role to repair the damage in the station. With things like the impending cloning removal, it will be important to have more of those. Fina...

If it's the virus I am thinking of, I had the misofortune of contracting it once. I had medhud on and saw the instant I got it. I proceeded to immediately go the chemistry and tried to make the cure. Before I could finish the cure, I was dead of oxyloss. I also had stable light pink so I was moving ...

Arathian

He disputes the facts of the event so it should be "[this] note is factually or materially incorrect"

Arathian

Here's a thought: if you don't like dynamic, go to a different server than Terry. Terry players literally riot when it's changed away from dynamic. We have 5 servers that cater to you and only 1 for people who like dynamic. This is basically a shitpost and not a real code bounty. It doesn't belong i...
