[MortoSasye] Tet O'Weenie - Asimov Law 3
Posted: Fri Dec 07, 2018 6:50 pm
Coming in hot a week later:
Byond account and character name: Tetr4 - Tet O'Weenie / Sword
Banning admin: MortoSasye
Ban type (What are you banned from?): Silicon job-ban
Ban reason and length: 7 days - breaking Asimov law 3
Time ban was placed (including time zone): 18h30 UTC
Server you were playing when banned (Sybil or Bagil): Bagil
Your side of the story:
Started a round, ran to get borged. Got borged, name was changed, didn't want to play as a different name. Almost never successfully asked for a name change from a robo that did it specifically for his/her own, so didn't ask this time (asked for a name change later in the round and was denied). Committed suicide and asked for my brain to be taken out of the MMI and thrown in the trash.
Why you think you should be unbanned:
Short of ahelping for what I believed to be a very minor issue, my actions were the best course of action for not wanting to play as a borg with a different name (however petty this might seem). I could have gone braindead, gone out into space, or done anything else. The difference is I did it visibly for the roboticists, leaving all the parts there for reuse in another borg, and indicating that I no longer wished to be borged.
In addition, I've never seen Law 3 enforced in (many) situations where violating it doesn't affect any other players at all, and it seems to be considered an OOC action in these situations.
Lastly, 10-15 minutes later, I entered a posibrain hoping to play again. I was placed into a borg with the exact same name as before. I asked for a name change from the robos and was denied. I then played as a normal Asimov borg, setting up the sm and doing things as usual. Bwoinked later and told I would be banned for Asimov violations.
In short:
I did not want to play anymore, and killed myself in an obvious fashion where it would be the most helpful, and showed I did not want to play anymore. My OOC action of not wanting to play did not affect any other players, but was considered a violation of Asimov laws. The same situation happened again in the same round, and I stuck with the name and played as usual. Banned later for the initial suicide.
