2. They got rid of them because they looked stupid, and the actresses were clearly uncomfortable wearing them.

My main issue with your utterly moronic complaint about skirts is that you only are complaining about skirts and not the variety of other stupid insane bullshit in the game

The fact alone that an ostensibly high profile, expensive research station has formal postings for fucking clowns and mimes already shatters the notion that skirts and other funny outfits are somehow immersion breaking

Your entire argument is based in a really poorly thought out comparison to star trek because you want to justify the fact that you don't think people should be allowed to wear funny outfits

If you're serious about this topic you should also be advocating for the removal of clown/mimes, the removal of all nonstandard clothing, the removal of basically anything slightly wacky, etc etc, all because you think fucking skirts, a piece of clothing somwhere around half the population (give or take because of personal preference and societal standards) wears

I am genuinely baffled as to how you can claim skirts are somehow what kills the vive of this game when the vibe of this game is already a wacky space station and I find it difficult to engage in a discussion on this topic because it really genuinely feels like a bad faith post

Complaining about skirts is barely even on topic and I'm not going to keep discussing it because this discussion will, as usual, go nowhere, because this has been a back and forth debate on the forums and shit for years even though literally no one but a minority of people actually give half a damn about the stuff that is allegedly so destructive to the game's tone

If everyone on the station spawns at roundstart with the most elaborate and stupid outfits then I'll be willing to hear you out but the existence of fucking skirts does not somehow shatter the game's tone, and the fact that you think it does makes me assume you have an ulterior motive

Edit: also I don't know what your source is on the actresses on star trek giving up the skirts thing is because I'm almost certain multiple people in TNG wore jumpsuits with skirt bottoms, including men, though I admittedly am not sure

Spoilering because this discussion is dumb
Spoiler:
TNG had a guy in a jumpskirt in the very first episode, and jumpskirts were a pretty Trek thing for women too and not just in TOS.

Jumpskirts are fine. It's weird to take issue with them since they're really more of an RP thing to more easily tell gender apart at a glance in a pixel game since before it was long hair=female and short hair=male instantaneously. What a weird thing to get hung up on.

Skirt uniforms were pretty default on retro futuristic shows and movies.

How you took an off-hand comment about how skirt uniforms were anime and turned that into a multi-paragraph essay on how I want mimes and clowns removed from the game is beyond me.

A lot of elements in SS13 already fit that bill. That sort of aesthetic is right at home in a place where sentient robots exist alongside pump shotguns and PDAs with the power of a tamagotchi.

Farquhar you complained about my one line reply and then you complained about me actually trying to express why I think your position is stupid and you didn't even address any of my points, you just tried to disparage me by saying "lol why'd u write all that"

This is why absolutely no one takes you seriously

Read the second word after magical.

Am I wrong though. Any goofy stuff has been given to antags, while the crew has to deal with a jaded and crappy dystopian future version of nanotransen.

Why is the syndicate stealing from nanotransen anymore if all its tech is better now.

Length is not a function of post quality. “Skirts are silly and clowns are silly, so you must want clowns removed from the game” is a huge stretch, no matter how many words it takes you to say it. At no point did I express that all silly things should be removed from the game, nor was I hyperbolic enough to say skirts were killing the vibe of the game.

Heck, my original post was defending an extendo arm PR.

Anonmare, Crag and Oranges have disagreed with my opinion on skirts and the game’s aesthetic adequately and with brevity. You, however, have written the most and while saying the least.
