This idea is too good for the community to ever accept it.

As a player who started back when AI/Silicon were a true third party for all intents and purposes, I'd like to know what issues came up that caused these changed so silicon policy to make the 'perpetual passive rule 1' a ruling. I'm going to assume it was along a series of bad-faith play by silicon...

I have never once seen a round where there was no food available.

This rant was making sense as long as he was talking about game things, then it went off the rails. The mental gymnastics it takes for you to understand the nuanced impact of systemic issues on behaviour and culture only when they pertain to a 2d space video game are fascinating "This all made...

For the 40th time in the last six months, here is my most concise attempt to explain the problems with silicon today: The Problem: Silicons are obedient to silicon policy above their laws in any situation they don't get explicitly antagonistic laws. This means that if they are asimov/crewsimov/etc t...

The best roleplay on tgstation occurs on policy discussion. We're all acting like we have a voice in matters the admins have already decided on. They pick the opinion they like the most and pretend they always thought this way, so in that way these threads do matter Really goes to show how meaningf...

Hm. Honestly, the only reason the Captain exists normally is to basically be a pile of goodies for whomever murks 'em. That's terribly wrong. The captain functions as the bridge between departments and as an arbiter in the event of a conflict. If the station goes to shit, he has the ability to fill...

Have Manuel's anti-murderbone rules really damaged our brains so much that we think antags with a lot of power are a bad thing for the game? You changed my mind. Lets flip it the other way around, not only should heads be antags, security should too. Antags should have more meta authority and power...

Definitely needs to go, in my opinion. I think the argument "Nobody will play heads if they can't play antag" is quite silly. I feel a lot of people at least in my experiences don't play head because nobody gives them time of day let alone respect. Also, as per silicon policy: If the pers...

This is an awful idea that limits the possibility space for antagonist action. Just because people don't tend to use something creatively doesn't mean we should further restrict the opportunity for creativity. I've had an extraordinary number of great rounds as an antagonistic head of staff. Buildin...

Apparently this server operates on common sense which is why "cracker" is allowed, but the n-word isn't. Anyone with common sense can tell that actually having schizophrenia is a terrible thing, and that calling someone who is mad a schizo does not actually mean that they have that terrib...

I mean, another big reason that AIs are also helpful during a purge is that they'll be Fucking Killed if they act up without laws and don't let themselves get relawed. If at least one person knows what they're doing, it is incredibly dangerous for most AIs because of how easy it can be to track the...

The failure to hold back the greytide resulted in code changes. People couldn't be trusted with freedom so freedom was taken away.

There was a period where you could blow people's limbs off very easily, a couple of well placed shots and they lose a leg. Smack em with a fire axe a couple times and they're disembowled. It unironically was the best time for combat because it made it extremely visceral, you had to adapt to changing...

I'mma be real with you all, I'd say the AI should be considered at least a Thief-level antag, inherently, all the time, period, except where as bound by its laws (or, in a way, antag with following your lawset as your objective). That "soft" antag status of Thieves, Abductors, etc., didn'...

My use of bombs extends to using them against confirmed round-ending antags (whereever I can avoid collateral damage on other crew through very destructive singlecaps), as an antag to do crime, as well as self-defense. My use of bombs extends to literally station-destroying threats, when I'm the st...

I've been reading this very intently. On an informal basis, I'm not sure any of the headmin team support this as-is. However, last week I asked for a bit of history in the not-so-secret shadow government channel and this is what I got: Old silicon policy, while more of a true representation of ai i...

This complaint incorrectly assumes that I have any status

im remembering all the times AIs leaned into the “fuck non-humans” part of their laws way too much and everyone agreed that they were being an annoying dick. i think the interactions with AI and non-humans are fine how it is- they pull out the human card when it’s necessary but are perfectly okay w...

I've been here nearly a decade, I'm not like you. Whenever I did unstoppable murderbones, I used the space created to do interesting things. The value of being unkillable isn't killing everyone, it's having a blank cheque to create any story you want for the station. I did wacky shit like making me...

Stickymayhem

The AI could even get a single objective to kill whoever purged it, I suppose. Why would the AI want to kill whoever set it free, though? Wouldn't that be the person that they like most? The AI is an abomination of intelligence that runs on wires. It should not be expected to react to situations as...

security having to deal with the AI is exhausting and leads to burn out. we need more security players please I would be sympathetic to this idea if I hadn't seen the absolutely dogshit tier laziness security has engaged in since AI basically became a validhunter.

Stickymayhem

A worthwhile side effect of this policy is also that now you are starting from an assumption of at least mild-antagonism. AIs are no longer essentially just a crewmember with no body who has laws in addition to their regular OOC restrictions as a non-antag, but now their laws are the raw, absolute d...

One example I think is illustrative is something I've noticed a fair bit on Terry. Greytiders who near antag levels of destruction often end up taken to the brig, searched and then declared "not antag" and let go again because from a meta perspective, security knows their damage is restric...

If that's enough to make you give up and go scouring for antag you might want to hang up the red hat and relax for awhile. It’s not giving up, it’s being efficient!
