A question about tgstation now

[Violaceus]

So /tg/station used to be my favourite and only server for years. I didn't look here for a long time, but was periodically checking for few months.

And I see:
Pizza Boy the cargo technician
AAAAAAAAAAA the wizard
Memes the wizard

CAPTAIN ANNOUNCES:
ayyy

Central Command Update:
lol

People using lol cuck antag objective wew and similar shit IC.

Why

[Saegrimr]

Don't worry about that last round.
That last round was cancer.

[Lumbermancer]

Why

Because even the strongest mind and will can be overpowered by memes.

[RedMcCloud]

memes are the life and blood of the server

inject me with memes daddy

[Anonmare]

What's the use in fighting when you are already dead?

[bandit]

Pizza Boy the cargo technician

Ahelp, and we'll tell them to change it

AAAAAAAAAA the wizard
Memes the wizard

Valid, wizard names get leeway

CAPTAIN ANNOUNCES:
ayyy

Valid, you can say "ayyy" irl, just ask the fonz

Central Command Update:
lol

Also valid, these are considered text updates

People using lol

OOC in IC, ahelp

cuck

Valid, unfortunately people say this IRL

antag

Metagaming/OOC in IC, ahelp

objective

Borderline but, like, traitors can have objectives IC

wew

Valid, you can say this IRL

and similar shit IC.

Why

As you can see, this stuff is a case-by-case basis, but the admins do try to crack down on it.

[InsaneHyena]

Yes, this problem exists. It probably shouldn't, but at least we aren't Hippie.

[Wyzack]

I really hope AAAAAAA the wizard was a lich with fireball for an excellent Doom 2 joke

[Hibbles]

We had a naming policy for the longest time, but apparently it was far too oppressive for some people.

[Armhulen]

Should re add that.
I've seen Jim Jones and that's one of the lesser crimes against naming.

[imblyings]

we still do

>Rule 3 Precedents. - Excessively OOC names fall under rule 3. Make a minimum effort to have your name fit in a setting involving a wacky space station in the future. Admins may get involved if your name is dumb.

admins have laissez faire to change names if they are dumb or excessively ooc

[iamgoofball]

Ayya L'amaro is legit

[Armhulen]

Ayya L'amaro is legit

And it shouldn't, but I guess it is

[iamgoofball]

Ayya L'amaro is legit

And it shouldn't, but I guess it is

yes it is

it sounds like a name

ayy lmao is bad

Ayya L'amaro is fine

[Armhulen]

Okay, fair enough.

[Okand37]

Personally, I still see the naming policy enforced from time to time, but it is a lot more leniently enforced.

[ohnopigeons]

Pizza Boy the cargo technician

Ahelp, and we'll tell them to change it

I don't get it, what's wrong?

Aran isn't allowed to ban anymore iirc.

[Wyzack]

Pizza boy is not a name

[paprika]

its italian

[Armhulen]

Pizza boy is not a name

its italian

my fucking organs are stopping, i'm DYING.

[Super Aggro Crag]

Ayya L'amaro is legit

it's clumsy as shit, just be an asian girl named Ayla Mao.

also if you name yourself something dumb and stick to your guns and play the character with their dumb name you don't usually get in trouble, I play as Space Caveman all the time and no one bothers me because I go UNGA BUNGA and hunt rats in maintenance while naked.

[Not-Dorsidarf]

I play as Windsor Castle and I didn't even get blinked at at the height of the 21ST CENTURY MAINSTREAM WHITE AMERICAN NAMES ONLY craze

[Malkevin]

I'm disappointed that no AI has ever tried pulling a "But dorfs aren't humans" trick on my main character.

[Drynwyn]

I'm disappointed that no AI has ever tried pulling a "But dorfs aren't humans" trick on my main character.

As an AI player: Particularly since you play security that would be a really fast way to a bing bong bwoink bannu.

[Violaceus]

Jesus

[IcePacks]

hello yes

i, the super funny meme griefer greytide jerk, care more about staying in character than most of you

[oranges]

He should from the way he usually acts

[Anonmare]

Pray whenever you're both on Bagil and I'll give him brain damage tbh

[Qbopper]

Pray whenever you're both on Bagil and I'll give him brain damage tbh

will do
